二、阅读理解。(共8小题,每小题3分,共24分)
A传统文化
Traced back to the Song and Yuan Dynasties,Fujian Tulou is a kind of traditional Chinese
rural house built by the Hakka people in the mountainous areas of Fujian Province.These large,
closed,and strong earth buildings were added to UNESCO's World Heritage()List in 2008.
China's development has not given up traditional culture but has gone hand in hand with its
cultural heritage,passing it down from generation to generation.Fujian Tulou is an example of
this.In Zhangzhou's Nanjing County,many tulou buildings are kept.They attract a large number
of tourists.
At the tulou area,you can always see many travellers enjoying the view and taking videos with
their phones or cameras.Local people may invite visitors to their homes for a short tour,sharing
history and stories about the inside design of the tulou.There are also shops offering visitors the
chance to dress in the clothes of the local She ethnic minority()for photos.
Usually,the ink rubbing(墨水拓片)workshop also interests lots of visitors.The leader of the
workshop guides people,showing them luck and happiness in China,on a woodcut()of a
tulou.After rolling the paper with golden ink,they get a beautiful picture of the tulou,a unique
souvenir made by their own hands that they can take home.
These activities not only provide fun but also allow visitors to experience the beauty of
traditional Chinese culture at first hand.
