A
Here are three best destinations for you to discover if you hope to have a heart⁃stopping adventure,
a close⁃up look at history or the perfect meal.
Los Cabos, Mexico
Located at the tip of the Baja Peninsula, the two small colonial (殖民地的) towns of Cabo San
Lucas and San José del Cabo have become the hottest vacation destinations in Mexico in recent years.
With wide, original beaches, lively nightclubs, natural resorts, and a farm⁃to⁃table food scene, the
oasis (乐园) of Los Cabos is drawing tourists in record numbers. As a result, the hotel scene is
booming, with lots of new developments and repairs completed this year.
Zambia
Until now, Zambia has had little recognition as one of Africa’ s great safari (狩猎远征)
destinations. Yet experts know it as the birthplace of the walking safari. In South Luangwa National
Park, visitors can expect to see more animals than baobab trees, while Liuwa Plain National Park is the
setting for the world’s second⁃largest wildebeest (角马) migration, when tens of thousands of the
creatures head across the plain from neighbouring Angola.
Brussels, Belgium
Visitors may want to return to the Belgian capital in 2018 to visit two cutting⁃edge museums. The
Millennium Iconoclast Museum of Art opened to show contemporary art from around the world. There’s
also the Citroën Cultural Centre, which will launch its first exhibition in May. The JAM Hotel with
exposed brickwork and concrete beams housed in a former art school, is the perfect place for culture⁃
lovers to stay. Don’t leave town without experiencing the beer culture at youthful breweries (啤酒厂)
like Brasserie de la Senne or Brussels Beer Project.

Liverpool, my home town, is a unique city. It is so unique that in 2004 it became a World
Heritage (遗产) Site.
09
I recently returned to my home city and my first stop was at a museum on the River Mersey.
Blanketed in mist (薄雾), Victorian architecture rose from the banks of the river, responded to the
sounds of seabirds, and appeared unbelievably charming. When I headed towards the centre, I found
myself surrounded by buildings that mirror the best palaces of Europe. It is not hard to imagine why, on
first seeing the city, most visitors would be overpowered by the beauty of the noble buildings, which are
solid signs of Liverpool’s history.
As if to stress its cultural role, Liverpool has more museums and galleries (美术馆) than most
cities in Britain. At Walker Art Gallery, I was told that it has the best collections of Victorian paintings
in the world, and is the home of modern art in the north of England. However, culture is more than just
galleries. Liverpool offers many music events. As Britain’s No. 1 music city, it has the biggest city
music festival in Europe, and its musicians are famous all over the world. Liverpool is also well known
for its football and other sports events. Every year, the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of
visitors, making the city a place of wonder.
As you would expect from such a city, there are restaurants serving food from all over the world.
When my trip was about to complete, I chose to rest my legs in Liverpool’s famous The Philharmonic
Pub (酒馆). It is a perfect monument, and a heritage attraction itself.
Being a World Heritage Site, my home city is certainly a place of“outstanding universal value” . It
is a treasure house with plenty of secrets for the world to explore.
4. Visitors who see the city for the first time would be deeply impressed by .
A. its charming banks B. its famous museums
C. its wonderful palaces D. its attractive buildings
5. The third paragraph is developed mainly by .
A. providing different examples B. following the order of space
C. making comparisons D. analysing causes
6. The author uses The Philharmonic Pub to prove that .
A. Liverpool is a well⁃known city for its restaurants
B. Liverpool is an impressive place full of attractions
C. a pub is a wonderful place for visitors to relax themselves
D. a pub is a perfect choice for visitors to complete their journey
7. What is the passage mainly about?

A Discovery Channel
A program seeks to boost the countryside economy by promoting the cultural and historical appeal
of rural areas among young tourists, Yang Feiyue reports.
A program to revive rural areas and tap into their culture and tourism was launched in the capital
on Thursday.
The Discover Ancient Villages program is led by the China Cultural Relics Academy and will offer
planning, marketing and publicity support for the protection and development of traditional villages
accredited by the central government, especially those in the middle and west of the country.
The program is expected to last for two years and serve at least 50 villages across the country.
Traditional villages which abound in a rich history and a cultural landscape are the biggest legacy of
China’s agricultural civilization, experts say.
Traditional villages will play an important role in constructing the“dual circulation” development
pattern (domestic and overseas markets are expected to reinforce each other, with the former acting as
the mainstay), adjusting urban⁃rural relations and reinforcing China’s cultural heritage, says Shan
Jixiang, head of the China Cultural Relics Academy and former director of the Palace Museum.
“Cultural heritage should no longer be locked in a warehouse but should return to people’s lives,”
Shan says.
“Only by enabling people, especially young people, to experience the charm of traditional villages
and their cultural heritage, will they develop the passion and initiative to protect them, truly realising
29
the inheritance of Chinese culture.”
To date, the country has approximately 6, 800 accredited traditional villages and many of them.
“At present, there are various problems in traditional villages, such as population loss, decaying
buildings, aging facilities and lack of information and funding, ” says Zheng Guozhen, vice⁃chairman
of the China Cultural Relics Academy, adding that they especially lack development themes and
projects that follow current trends and market demands.
The Discover Ancient Villages program is aimed at showing the rural beauty of nature, humanity and
history and helping to speed up their development, Zheng says.
China has made historic achievements in eradicating absolute poverty. Next, the country will push
forward rural vitalization in an all⁃around way, with a historic shift of focus in the work related to
agriculture, rural areas and farmers.
Efforts must be made to promote the efficiency and quality of the agricultural sector, make rural
areas suitable to live and work in and make sure that farmers are affluent, according to the country’s
annual central rural work conference in late December.
The country will speed up the rural industry development to bring farmers more benefits,
strengthen intellectual and moral standards, prevent and control pollution in rural areas, accelerate
reform in key sectors in rural areas, prioritise rural infrastructure facility construction, facilitate the
integrated urban⁃rural development and improve rural governance.
It envisions a rural area featuring thriving businesses, an eco⁃friendly environment, social etiquette
and civility, effective governance and a prosperous rural population.
