People in different countries have different ideas about money and luck. Let’s look at some interesting examples.
Russia
Russians think people should always give money with their right hand and take it with their left hand, or they might lose money. Also, they believe (相信) if someone gets an empty wallet as a gift, he or she will become poor. So people always make sure to put some money inside the wallets they give as gifts.
Greece
Greeks say, “Money attracts money.” That is why Greek people always try to carry at least a few coins with them at all times. They believe doing so might bring them more money in the future. Similarly, they believe they will have bad luck if they don’t have any money in their wallet or bank account.
Japan
In Japan, the snake is a symbol of money. Some people keep a piece of snake skin in their wallet for good luck. Some people think if you see a white snake, you will be lucky forever. On the other hand, they believe that if they kill a snake, they will lose all their money.

C
Cities are full of tall buildings, factories, and cars. They are very useful places for people to live. However, for animals, living in a city can be very difficult. This is why some animals have changed to survive city life.
The peppered moth (花斑蛾), for example, changes its colour to survive in the city. The quality of the air in the city is not quite good. This makes the surface of trees darker. The peppered moth changes to a darker colour to match the trees. In this way, it can hide from other animals.
The great tit (山雀) changes its voice to survive in the city. It sings to find a mate. But in the city, it is too noisy for other birds to hear it singing. So the great tit changes its song to a higher pitch (音调).
In the forest, the crow drops seeds and nuts from high above to break them on the ground. Then it can get the food inside. However, the city crow has a better idea. It drops its seeds on the street and waits for cars to break them. Then it quickly flies down and picks up its meal.

Guanqian Street is one of the most famous shopping areas in Suzhou. Lying in the centre of Suzhou’s old town, the street is a place where history and modern life dance together.
In the Song Dynasty (960—1279), the street was called “Tianqing Guan Street” because of the temple’s (庙) old name. Later, during the Yuan Dynasty (1271—1368), people started calling it “Guanqian Street”. In the 1930s, the street became wider. After 1949, it was rebuilt with asphalt (柏油). In 1982, it became one of China’s earliest walking streets.
The biggest changes happened between 1999 and 2003. New shopping malls were built, but the street still kept its historical style. For example, buildings were low and painted in black, white, and grey to match Suzhou’s ancient buildings. Now Guanqian Street has six parts, such as modern shopping areas and traditional snack areas.
Today, Guanqian Street never sleeps! You can taste delicious spring rolls, try on traditional silk clothes, or watch artists paint fans. During festivals, the street shines with lanterns and lively music. At night, colourful lights make the street even more beautiful. Now, the street has also become a popular place for visitors with new things like 3D screens and themed (主题) cafes.
Guanqian Street is like an ever-changing storybook. It shows how Suzhou loves its past but also welcomes the future. As local people say, “A trip to Suzhou is never perfect without visiting Guanqian Street!”
20. Which of the following is TRUE about Guanqian Street?
A. In 1982, it was one of China’s biggest walking streets.
B. People could walk on this wider street in the 1930s.

【解析】
【导语】本文介绍苏州观前街从古至今的发展历程,讲述这条老街在保留历史风貌的同时融入现代业态,是历史与现代生活交融的特色街区。
【20题详解】
原文第二段“In the 1930s, the street became wider.”,说明20世纪30年代街道拓宽,人们可以在变宽的街道通行。
【21题详解】
原文第三段“buildings were low and painted in black, white, and grey to match Suzhou’s ancient buildings”,黑白灰配色的建筑保留了古建筑风格,体现街区留存历史风貌。

In the Song Dynasty (960—1279), the street was called “Tianqing Guan Street” because of the temple’s (庙) old name. Later, during the Yuan Dynasty (1271—1368), people started calling it “Guanqian Street”. In the 1930s, the street became wider. After 1949, it was rebuilt with asphalt (柏油). In 1982, it became one of China’s earliest walking streets.
The biggest changes happened between 1999 and 2003. New shopping malls were built, but the street still kept its historical style. For example, buildings were low and painted in black, white, and grey to match Suzhou’s ancient buildings. Now Guanqian Street has six parts, such as modern shopping areas and traditional snack areas.
Today, Guanqian Street never sleeps! You can taste delicious spring rolls, try on traditional silk clothes, or watch artists paint fans. During festivals, the street shines with lanterns and lively music. At night, colourful lights make the street even more beautiful. Now, the street has also become a popular place for visitors with new things like 3D screens and themed (主题) cafes.
Guanqian Street is like an ever-changing storybook. It shows how Suzhou loves its past but also welcomes the future. As local people say, “A trip to Suzhou is never perfect without visiting Guanqian Street!”
