(2024·黑龙江哈四中高一检测) China now has 53 sites included on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Let’s have a look at four of them, which may give you some advice on your next travel plan.
Mount Huangshan
Mount Huangshan, known as “the loveliest mountain of China”, lies in the south of Anhui Province in eastern China. The scenic area covers 154 square kilometres, and is famous for its peaks, rocks, pines, clouds and springs. It also has a rich cultural heritage.

Gulangyu Island
Located at the mouth of the Jiulong River, the island was occupied by at least a dozen countries, including Great Britain, France and Japan. With such a harmonious mixture 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
Ancient villages in southern Anhui
Lying in southern Anhui, Xidi and Hongcun have a high historical and artistic value in architecture. The villages show the architectural features of the Huizhou-styled living houses in the period of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Xidi and Hongcun were added onto the list on 30 November 2000.

(2024·湖北武汉高一检测) African countries have retrieved some historic heritage, which directly reflects the important development of human society, from European countries. Recently, Germany signed a deal for the return of hundreds of valuable artworks from the Kingdom of Dahomey in the 19th century, in what is today Benin.
But many artefacts are still unluckily missing and some are on their way back. One such object is an eight-legged seat from the Old Kingdom in Uganda. The important artefact now sits at a museum thousands of kilometres away in Britain. The wooden seat is housed at the University of Oxford. It is one of at least 279 objects there taken from the Bunyoro-Kitara Kingdom.
Apollo John Rwamparo is a deputy prime minister of Uganda. He really values the country’s cultural heritage. He requested the British to return the artefacts. Uganda officials are preparing to meet with the University of Cambridge in Britain about the return of such historical artefacts. The school has an unknown number of artefacts from Africa. Through many efforts, an artefact was recently returned to its home.
The British Museum holds a large collection of artefacts from Africa. Rose Mwanja said Uganda’s commission had been trying hard on getting the artefacts back and believed it could have some good effects. She is Uganda’s commissioner for museums. She added she could start with those that are more willing to cooperate.
Many of the artefacts from Africa cannot even be found. That led to an organisation started by late Congolese art collector Sindika Dokolo. The organisation offers to buy African art from collections in foreign countries. By 2020, when Dokolo died, his group had successfully recovered 15 items. However, for African governments, the recovery of artefacts remains a struggle and will take much time.
4. What does the underlined word “retrieved” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Reduced.
B. Taken back.
C. Given up.
D. Recommended.
5. Where is the artefact of the eight-legged seat at present?
A. In Benin.
B. In Uganda.
C. In Germany.
D. In Britain.
6. What is Uganda officials’ attitude to their country’s cultural heritage?
A. Curious.
B. Concerned.
C. Uncaring.
D. Confused.
7. Which word best describes the recovery of artefacts?
A. Frightening.
B. Doubtful.
C. Effortless.
D. Challenging.
