The Temple of Heaven
The Temple of Heaven in Beijing is a very special place. It’s a famous symbol of Beijing and very important for Chinese culture. It was built over 600 years ago during the Ming Dynasty. Back then, emperors would go there to pray for good harvests.
The Temple of Heaven is really big—it’s as big as more than 300 soccer fields! It has lots of trees and old buildings. Walking there is like traveling back in time. The biggest and coolest buildings are the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests(祈年殿) and the Circular Mound(圜丘).
The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests is a huge round building with a blue roof symbolizing the Heaven. This is where the emperor prayed to heaven, hoping for good crops and peace. The Circular Mound is a large, open round altar where the emperor did special ceremonies every winter solstice (冬至日) to ask for heaven’s blessings.
The buildings at the Temple of Heaven are made to show harmony between the sky and the earth, which is an old idea that the sky is round and the earth is square. The buildings are also colourful: blue stands for the sky, red means importance and good luck, and yellow is the colour of royalty.
There’s also a really cool spot called the Echo Wall. It’s a smooth, curved wall about 200 metres long. If you whisper at one end, you can hear your voice at the other end—isn’t that amazing?
In 1998, the Temple of Heaven was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, which means it’s recognized as a treasure all over the world. This is not just because it’s old and looks cool, but also because it shows a lot about Chinese culture and spirit.

Swap. Don’t Shop!
You keep hearing about recycling, right? But it doesn’t end with bottles, cans, and paper. Clothing takes a huge amount of natural resources (资源) to make, and buying loads of new clothing (or throwing out old clothing) is not healthy for the environment. So what to do with all those perfectly-good-but-you’re-maybe-a-little-sick-of-them clothes piled on your bedroom floor? 1 . It’s the best way to get rid of your used clothes, score clothes from your friends, and have a party all at the same time.
A successful swap depends on the selection of clothes, the organization of the event, and, obviously, how much fun is had. It’s really easy to do! Here are a few pointers.
Invite 5-10 people so you have a nice selection. 2 , and there may not be enough things to choose from; more than that, and it becomes uncontrollable.
3 . They should also prepare plenty of reusable bags to carry their "new" clothes home.
Put different types of clothing on different surfaces in the room. 4 . Place a few mirrors around your room so people can see how things look when they try them on. One of the ground rules of the swap should be that everyone must try on the clothes before they take them—things always look different when you put them on.
Set a starting time. Maybe you say “go”, or turn on a certain song, or whatever. 5 . And don't forget to put out some cookies and fruits. Remember, it's a party!
A. Less people than that
B. Hold a clothing swap
C. If two people are competing
D. Just keep music playing throughout
E. Donate whatever clothes are left over
F. Have everyone put their clothes in the right spots
G. Tell everyone to bring clean clothes in good condition

Swap. Don’t Shop!
You keep hearing about recycling, right? But it doesn’t end with bottles, cans, and paper. Clothing takes a huge amount of natural resources (资源) to make, and buying loads of new clothing (or throwing out old clothing) is not healthy for the environment. So what to do with all those perfectly-good-but-you’re-maybe-a-little-sick-of-them clothes piled on your bedroom floor? 1 . It’s the best way to get rid of your used clothes, score clothes from your friends, and have a party all at the same time.
A successful swap depends on the selection of clothes, the organization of the event, and, obviously, how much fun is had. It’s really easy to do! Here are a few pointers.
Invite 5-10 people so you have a nice selection. 2 , and there may not be enough things to choose from; more than that, and it becomes uncontrollable.
3 . They should also prepare plenty of reusable bags to carry their "new" clothes home.
Put different types of clothing on different surfaces in the room. 4 . Place a few mirrors around your room so people can see how things look when they try them on. One of the ground rules of the swap should be that everyone must try on the clothes before they take them—things always look different when you put them on.
Set a starting time. Maybe you say “go”, or turn on a certain song, or whatever. 5 . And don't forget to put out some cookies and fruits. Remember, it's a party!
A. Less people than that
B. Hold a clothing swap
C. If two people are competing
D. Just keep music playing throughout
E. Donate whatever clothes are left over
F. Have everyone put their clothes in the right spots
G. Tell everyone to bring clean clothes in good condition
