China now has 52 sites included on the UNESCO World Heritage list, which was established to safeguard unique and irreplaceable cultural and natural sites around the world. Let’s have a look at some of them, which may give you some clues on your next travel plan.
Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor
The Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor is located in Lintong county, near Xi’an city, capital of Shaanxi province. A total of 8,000 life-size terracotta warriors, chariots and horses, and hundreds of bronze weapons have been unearthed from it. Many state leaders and experts worldwide believe that the discovery of the mausoleum is a major archeological find and can be called the eighth wonder of the world, paralleling Egypt’s pyramids.
Kulangsu, a Historic International Settlement
Gulangyu Island, known in the local dialect as Kulangsu, is located on the entry of the Jiulong River, facing the city of Xiamen. The island was occupied by at least a dozen countries, including Great Britain, France and Japan. As a result, Western culture grew rapidly there in the 19th century, especially music. With such a harmonious blend of Western music and Eastern culture, Gulangyu is naturally referred to as the “island of music”. It is famous for its outstanding musicians and musical instruments.
Qinghai Hoh Xil
Hoh Xil, which means “beautiful girl” in Mongolian, is located in the north-eastern end of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. Hoh Xil National Nature Reserve is China’s largest and the world’s third largest uninhabited area. Because of the high altitude and fierce weather, it is impossible for people to live there, and therefore, it is a paradise for wildlife and home to more than 230 species of wild animals including endangered species such as the Tibetan antelope, which is recognized as the National Class I Protected animal.
Huangshan Mountain
Huangshan, known as “the loveliest mountain of China”, lies in the south of Anhui province in eastern China. The scenic area covers 154 sq km, and is famous for its peaks, rocks, pines, clouds and springs. It also has a rich cultural heritage. Xu Xiake, a famous traveler of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), visited Huangshan twice, and described it in a poem, calling it the best of all mountains in China. Today it holds the same fascination for visitors, poets, painters and photographers.
1.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
A. Qinghai Hoh Xil is the largest uninhabited area in the world.
B. Kulangsu was occupied for not less than a dozen years.
C. Mausoleum is located in the capital city of Shaanxi province.
D. Huangshan Mountain is well known for its magnificent scenery.
2.Why is Qinghai Hoh Xil a paradise for wildlife living there?
A. Because endangered species are well protected there.
B. Because it is large in size with beautiful scenery.
C. Because it is located on Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau.
D. Because tough weather and environment make no people live there.
3.Where does the passage most probably come from?

In 1980，Candy Lightner’s 13-year-old daughter Cad was killed by a drunk driver as she walked down a suburban street in California. “I promised myself on the day of my daughter’s death that I would fight to make this needless accident count for something positive in the years ahead,” Candy Lightener later wrote.
The drunk driver received a two-year prison sentence. However, he avoided prison by serving time in a work camp and a halfway house. Ms. Lightner was very angry about that and so organized Mothers Against Drunk Drivers (MADD), which later changed to Mothers Against Drunk Driving. The aim of her organization was to raise public awareness of the serious nature of drunk driving and to promote tough legislation against the crime.
Before Ms. Lightner’s MADD, intoxication (醉酒), including drunk driving, was not taken seriously. Intoxication was often used as an excuse for otherwise unacceptable behavior: “I didn’t know what I was doing—I was drunk.”
Candy Lightner appeared on major television shows, spoke before the US Congress, addressed professional and business, groups, and worked tirelessly for years to change public attitudes, change judicial(审判的) behaviour, and promote tough new legislation. Ms. Lightner left MADD because the organization that she herself created is changing its focus. “I didn’t start MADD to deal with alcohol. I started MADD to deal with the issue of drunk driving.”
The President of the United States awarded her the President’s Volunteer Action Award and she was the subject of the movie “Mothers Against Drunk Drivers: the Candy Lightner Story”.
1.One of the purposes of MADD was to______ .
A. make the public aware of the danger of drunk driving
B. fight against the drunk hit-and-run drivers on the road
C. make new laws against crimes caused by drinking
D. warn people not to drink alcohol while driving
2.which way didn’t Ms. Lightner use to achieve her MADD’s goals?
A. Talking on major TV shows.
B. Giving a talk to businessmen.
C. Applying for a job with the government.
D. Giving suggestions to the US Congress.
3.We can learn from the passage that______.
A. the drunk driver had not been caught
B. drunk driving didn’t receive enough attention before MADD
C. Candy Lightner played a leading role in a film
D. MADD didn’t get much support from society
4.What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Ways to prevent drunk driving
B. Purposes of founding MADD
C. New law against drunk driving
D. Candy Lightner and her MADD
