Science-fiction author Hao Jingfang became the first Chinese woman to win a Hugo Award, beating best-selling horror and fantasy writer Stephen King in the best novelette category.
The 32-year-old woman from Tianjin received the prize for Folding Beijing, in which she depicts the Chinese capital as a city divided by social class.
“My story suggests a possibility for the future and also proposes a solution. I hope the real future will be brighter than my story,” Hao said when accepting her award at the Kansas City Convention Center Grand Ballroom.
She said she was not confident about winning and joked that she had been planning to attend the Hugo losers’ party. “Sci-fi writers always consider all possibilities,” she added.
Her win comes a year after Liu Cixin won a Hugo for his novel “The Three-Body Problem”. Liu was the first Chinese author to win the prize.
In Folding Beijing, the city is separated into three areas, and “the residents of First Space see the extra soil as a part of their privilege”. Hao said of her story, which was translated by Ken Liu and published last year by Uncanny magazine.
2015 Hugo winner Liu told China Daily that he thinks Hao’s stories convey warmth and a unique color like “golden sunlight”.
21．Hao Jingfang is ___________.
A．confident about winning    B．23 years old
C．a science-fiction author    D．from Beijing
22．According to the passage, who was the first Chinese author to win Hugo Award?
