During the Ming and Qing dynasties (朝代), the building of the gardens came to its most popular time. It is said that there were more than 200 gardens all over the city, so Suzhou was famous as the “City of Gardens”.

Among them, some famous gardens are examples of Suzhou Gardens, such as the Humble Administrator’s Garden, Lingering Garden, Master of the Nets Garden and so on. Suzhou Gardens explain the ideas behind classic Chinese garden design (设计) in many ways. The designers were not just interested in where to plant trees and flowers, they also used history, art and philosophy (哲学) in their designs. Each thing in a garden—each hill, pond, plant and rock—is full of meanings. Now Suzhou Gardens are 5A places of interest in China and people added two groups of them to the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List (世界文化遗产名录) in 1997 and 2000.

Kunqu Opera has lots of excellent plays from the old times. Many of them are still popular today, such as The Peony Pavilion by Tang Xianzu, The Kite by Li Yu and The Peach Blossom Fan by Kong Shangren. The Peony Pavilion is the best of all Kunqu plays.

In 2001, UNESCO listed Kunqu Opera as one of the Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity (人类口头和非物质遗产代表作).

Many young people are talking about the “gap year”. But do you know what the “gap year” is? Many young workers are so tired that they can’t work anymore (不再), so they choose to stop their work plans and have a long time trip by themselves. And the trip usually lasts for one year or more that is the so-called “gap year”. The “gap year” is a new idea. More and more young people are willing to spend a year traveling and relaxing, experiencing a new life, and learning different new things before starting their work again. They think that this experience during the “gap year” can help them better know themselves, find what they are really interested in, and get ready for their life and work. During the “gap year”, young people can choose to travel around the world. These experiences can help them have less stress (压力) and decide wisely (智慧地) about their life. Some people may say that taking a “gap year” has no meaning. However, many great people took a “gap year”, and this experience brought them something useful. In a word, taking a “gap year” can be a meaningful experience for young people. It gives them time to see the world and helps them be a better man. Although it may let them stop their work for a year, the good things they get from this experience are more important.

They are a group of beautiful gardens in Suzhou, Jiangsu. People built the first classic (古典的) garden during the Spring and Autumn Period. In the following times, people built more and more, but most were not open to visitors. During the Ming and Qing dynasties (朝代), the building of the gardens came to its most popular time. It is said that there were more than 200 gardens all over the city, so Suzhou was famous as the “City of Gardens”. Nowadays, of the 70 well-protected classical gardens, about 30% are open to people as places of interest. Among them, some famous gardens are examples of Suzhou Gardens, such as the Humble Administrator’s Garden, Lingering Garden, Master of the Nets Garden and so on. Suzhou Gardens explain the ideas behind classic Chinese garden design (设计) in many ways. The designers were not just interested in where to plant trees and flowers, they also used history, art and philosophy (哲学) in their designs. Each thing in a garden—each hill, pond, plant and rock—is full of meanings. Now Suzhou Gardens are 5A places of interest in China and people added two groups of them to the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List (世界文化遗产名录) in 1997 and 2000. Why not visit them when you have time? I’m sure you will enjoy the beauty of the gardens. 56. Why was Suzhou famous as the “City of Gardens”? ________________ 57. How many classic gardens can people visit now? ________________ 58. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us? ________________ 59.
