The Silk Road was a network of trade routes (路线) that connected the East and the West for many centuries. It was not just one road, but a system of routes that allowed people to transport goods, ideas, and cultures between Asia and Europe.

The Silk Road began during the Han Dynasty, around the 2nd century BC. It got its name because silk was one of the most important goods traded along the route. However, many other things were also traded, such as spices, tea, porcelain (瓷器), and precious stones. Besides goods, the Silk Road also helped spread religions, technologies, and art between different civilizations.

Traveling along the Silk Road was dangerous and difficult. Traders had to cross huge deserts, high mountains, and face the threat of robbers. But the desire for trade and cultural exchange kept the routes alive for over a thousand years.

Today, the Silk Road is no longer used for trade as it was in the past, but it remains an important symbol of cultural exchange. Many historical sites along the route have become popular tourist attractions, helping people learn about the shared history of humanity.

18. Why was it called the Silk Road?

A. Because silk was the only goods traded along the route.

B. Because silk was one of the most important goods traded.
