People’s Republic of China was established (成立) on October 1st 1949. After that, Chinese National Day is celebrated on that day every year.

If one really needs to travel during the Chinese National Day holiday, try to avoid the first two days and the last day of the “Golden Week”, because they are the busiest time for transportation system, when the flight tickets are the highest and train and long-distance bus tickets are hardest to buy. Also, the first two days are usually the most crowded at the scenic spots, especially the famous ones.
c. Avoid hot destinations (目的地). These places are always crowded with visitors during the “Golden Week”. Choose some not so famous tourism cities and attractions, where there are fewer visitors and one can enjoy the scene more leisurely.
d. Book flight/train tickets and hotel rooms in advance (提前).
46. The “Golden Week” is celebrated from about ________.
A. 1949 B. 1969 C. 2000 D. 2009

A. October 2nd B. October 3rd C. October 5th D. September 30th
49. What does the underlined word “leisurely” mean in Chinese?
A. 悠闲地 B. 努力地 C. 快速地 D. 忙碌地
50. What is the best title for the passage?
A. How to Travel Easily in China B. How to Get Train Tickets Easily
C. How to Choose the Scenic Spots in China D. How to Travel Easily during the “Golden Week”

C
People’s Republic of China was established (成立) on October 1st, 1949. After that, Chinese National Day is celebrated on that day every year. In the past 22 years, lots of Chinese have gone traveling during the “Golden Week” (a 7-day holiday from Oct. 1st to 7th) around the country. It leads to a sea of people at scenic spots (景点); train tickets are difficult to get; flight tickets cost (花费) more than usual; and hotel rooms are in short supply...
To make your travel in China easier and more comfortable, here are some tips for you:
a. If possible, avoid (避免) traveling during the “Golden Week”. One can make it just before or after the “crowding period”. During those time periods, there are usually fewer tourists. The cost is lower, and the visit is more satisfying.
b. If one really needs to travel during the Chinese National Day holiday, try to avoid the first two days and the last day of the “Golden Week”, because they are the busiest time for transportation system, when the flight tickets are the highest and train and long-distance bus tickets are hardest to buy. Also, the first two days are usually the most crowded at the scenic spots, especially the famous ones.
c. Avoid hot destinations (目的地). These places are always crowded with visitors during the “Golden Week”. Choose some not so famous tourism cities and attractions, where there are fewer visitors and one can enjoy the scene more leisurely.
d. Book flight/train tickets and hotel rooms in advance (提前).
46. The “Golden Week” is celebrated from about ________.
A. 1949 B. 1969 C. 2000 D. 2009
47. Which is NOT true about traveling during the “Golden Week”?

50. What is the best title for the passage?
