畅游威尼斯

Well, I'm in Venice, Italy, with my family! Venice is wonderful! The city is hundreds of years old, and it's built on water. People get around on special boats called gondolas, and today I had my first gondola ride!

A gondolier controls the gondola using an oar and his own strength. The gondolier's job is to describe Venice's culture and history as he takes you through the city's canals. Our gondolier was so good at telling stories that I almost forgot I was sharing the ride with my parents.

That might sound exciting, and it was, but of course I was with... my dad. And Dad thought it would be funny to wear a striped shirt to match the gondolier's shirt. Can you say embarrassing?

My parents loved looking at the beautiful bridges, churches, and palaces along the route. I really enjoyed listening to our gondolier talk about his work. He told us that it takes years of study and practice to get the job. Who knew? He also told us that of all the gondoliers in Venice, only one is a woman! I think I need to change that! It's time to start training for my dream job! Maybe my dad will let me borrow his shirt.

Gondola Tours of Venice gave me a great tour of a beautiful city—and an interesting idea for my future career! I recommend the gondola tour to anyone who's interested in learning about unusual places and unusual jobs ... especially if they're stuck on a boat with their parents!

1.Where is Venice built?

A.On land. B.On water. C.On an island. D.On the sea.

2.What is the gondolier's job?

A.To describe Venice's economy. B.To describe Venice's tourism industry.

C.To describe Venice's culture and history. D.To describe their own life experiences.

3.What does the underlined word "recommend" mean in Chinese?

A.发现 B.重复 C.建议 D.猜测

4.What can we get from the first sentence of last paragraph?

A.The writer may become a doctor. B.The writer may become a teacher.

C.The writer may become a guider. D.The writer may become a gondolier.

5.What's the best title for the text?

A.A wonderful city—Venice B.An enjoyable tour to Venice

C.A funny gondolier D.An interesting idea for my future career

Marco Polo was from Venice, Italy. In 1271, at age 17, Marco went on a trip with his father and uncle to China. Today people often travel to different places around the world. But it was very hard for people from Europe to visit China then. After three and a half years, the Polos reached China on 1275.

While he was there, Marco Polo worked　 for Kublai Khan, the emperor（皇帝）of China. He was able to learn and experience many things that were new to Europeans. In his diary, he wrote, “Kublai Khan’s palace is the greatest I’ve ever seen. The streets of the new capital. Daidu, are so straight and so wide.” Paper money also took him by surprise, since it was not yet in use in the West at that time. Homes were heated with “black stones... which burn like wood.” These stones were coal, and most of the Europeans knew little about it then.

After 17 years in China, Marco and his family finally returned to Venice in 1292. After he returned home, Marco completed a book about his trip, full of facts about his wonderful experiences in China.

1.How was Marco Polo’s three-and-a-half-year journey to China?
