Today, many of his writings are included in school textbooks and his works are read by millions around the world.Born in 1881 to rich family, Lu Xun had a happy childhood. In 1893, however, his grandfather was put into prison(监狱) for taking money. At the same time, his father became seriously ill. From that time on, his family were no longer accepted by their relatives(亲戚) and friends. These early experiences greatly influenced his writing.By the time Lu Xun arrived in Nanjing to study at a college in 1899, he already believed that Chinese government had to change and become modern. In 1902 he went to study in Japan. There he began writing articles for some Chinese student magazines. He showed a gift for writing and translating(翻译) and he even wrote several books, though none was popular. He returned to China in 1909 because he was in need of money.After working for a few years as a teacher in Beijing, Lu Xun again returned to writing. In 1918, he wrote his famous short story Diary of a Madman. It was the first Chinese novel using the everyday language that people spoke, which helped make it a great success.This, together with his novel The True Story of Ah Q(1921), made Lu Xun a leading Chinese writer.Though successful, Lu Xun still worried greatly about Chinas future. In 1926, he moved to Shanghai and gave up writing stories. He only wrote articles which called on the people to fight against(反对) the government. For this, the government stopped him publishing(出版) any more books. He was made to write his articles using false names(假名).Since his death in 1936, Lu Xuns importance and influence have grown. More and more people have become interested in reading and studying his works.26 . Which of the following greatly influenced Lu Xuns writing according to the passage?Athe people he met in JapanBthe experiences in his early lifeCworking as a teacher in BeijingDhis fathers being put into prison27 .
