    1. Do Now—Liang Zhu(The Butterfly Lovers): This is one of the most famous legends in China. Judging from its name, what do you think the legend is about, when did the story happen.

    4. The Butterfly Lovers (???????pinyin: Liáng Shanbó yu Zhù Yingtái; literally: Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai) is a Chinese legend of a tragic love story of a pair of lovers, Liang Shanbo (???) and Zhu Yingtai (???), whose names form the title of the story. The title is often abbreviated to Liang Zhu (??) and often regarded as the Chinese equivalent of Romeo and Juliet.

    5. ??????? The legend of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai is set in the Eastern Jin Dynasty(BC 300). Zhu Yingtai is a beautiful and intelligent young woman, the ninth child and only daughter of the wealthy Zhu family of Shangyu, Zhejiang. Although traditions of that era discourage females from going to school, Zhu manages to convince her father to allow her to attend classes in disguise as a young man.

    15. The story also inspired the production of Butterfly Lovers' Violin Concerto, or Liang Zhu Violin Concerto as known in Chinese, a work for violin and orchestra. It was composed by Chen Gang and He Zhanhao in 1958. The piece has been the most musically symbolic retelling of the legend; at almost 30 minutes long, it is one of the classics of modern Chinese music.
