Changbai Mountain is in Jilin Province. It’s said to be the most beautiful mountain in the northeast of China. Its name, Changbai, means “ever white” in Chinese, and its whiteness is because of the pumice stones(浮石). You can get there by train or by bus.
Here are some tips for you if you want to visit it:
1. From November to April, heavy snow covers(覆盖) the area. August is the best time to visit it.
2. Be sure to start from your hotel early in the morning, so that you have enough time to see everything and return. Visitors can’t live on the mountain.
3. Bring food and water with you.

The best holiday of my life was two years ago. My parents, my aunt and uncle, my three cousins and I all went to India together. We spent two weeks traveling around and we visited many interesting places. The night before we left for India, I was so excited that I could not sleep. Our plane left at 1 p.m. and it took nearly six hours to fly to New Delhi. It was raining when we arrived. We were all very tired so we went straight to our hotel.
The next day, we went on a sightseeing tour. I took lots of photos and we all bought souvenirs at the markets. I learned that there is also a place called Delhi which is the oldest part of the city.
On the third day of our trip, we went to a place called Jaipur. At Jaipur we visited the Palace Museum and rode elephants. The elephant I rode was so big that I almost fell off. While my cousins and I were riding elephants, our parents went to look at the pink buildings that Jaipur is famous for.
Some people think that all Indian food is very spicy. But there are some dishes that are not spicy at all. My favourite dish is chicken. It is delicious. It tastes a little bit sweet. We ate rice every day, just like at home.
India is so big that it is impossible to see all of it in one trip. I hope that I can visit it again some day.How many people went to India for their holiday two years ago?

We spent a few days in Paris last week. We visit the famous city quite regularly. After all, it only takes three hours from London to Pairs. It’s always a pleasure visiting places we really like, exploring areas we’ve never been.
The only unlucky thing this time was the weather. As soon as we got there the temperature reached almost 35 degrees C (which lasted until we left). It was so hot that Matthew just couldn’t stand it — for him, it wasn’t the most enjoyable trip. I felt sorry for him because every time we go there he has to put up with (忍受) my endless shopping spree (狂欢) …
Because of the heat, we ended up just having lots of ice-cream and drinks most of the time, although we managed to pay a few visits to the new Herme shop on rue de Vaugirard at least. It’s not as busy as the shop on rue Bonaparte so you can choose whatever you like without worrying about a queue behind you! I really enjoyed his bread this time as well as the cakes. And I must say that his Croissant aux Amandes and Bostock were simply the best I’ve ever had. Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?
A.It was the first time for the writer to go to Paris. |
B.It was a long way from London to Paris. |
C.The writer lives in London. |
D.The writer only likes to go to places she has never been to. |
The underlined word “stand” in the second paragraph means ____.
A.享受 | B.忍受 | C.站立 | D.位于 |
What can you know about Matthew from the second paragraph?
A.He doesn’t like shopping. | B.He doesn’t like travelling. |
C.He is one of the writer’s relatives. | D.He isn’t a good husband. |
The shops on rue Bonaparte ____.
A.has no bread that the writer likes | B.is often crowded with customers |
C.don’t have anything the writer likes | D.is not very busy all the time |
What’s the best title for the passage?
A.An unpleasant trip | B.A great city |
C.A shopping centre | D.A trip to Paris |
