A trip to China with the kids could be a test to your nerves, but also     1     wonderful experience. This is an ancient civilization which is growing     2     great speed into the 21st century, meanwhile holding onto the old traditions and way of life.

As you travel from area to area, a sea of contrasts is     3     makes it so fascinating. You can find an old fisherman on his bamboo boat       4     (answer) his mobile phone, and modernity and old traditions existing side by side. The only constant thing in China is “change”.

At first it might seem challenging. But you will find the people helpful,     5     (especial) if you are traveling with children. Chinese love children, the more the     6     (happy).

But as far as children     7     (be) concerned, this isn’t a light-hearted (轻松愉快的) trip to Disney World. What if they get sick? Will the kids like the food? Is     8     (pollute) really that bad? Will they be     9     (bore)? Just relax. You can depend on it that you’ll end up with plenty of priceless     10     (memory) of the country.

Peru, a country on the Pacific coast of South America,     1    (make) up of three main areas. They are narrow, dry, flat land     2    (run) along the coast, the Andes Mountains,     3     the Amazon rainforest. Peru used to be     4     center of the powerful ancient Inca Empire, whose emperor     5    (live) in the now-famous site Machu Picchu. If you travel Peru, Machu Pichu must be one of your     6    (destination). It will take you four days to walk on     7    (amaze) paths through the Andes Mountains to the ancient city. Then there will be a lot     8    (explore) there.     9    (especial) amazing is the Inca’s dry stone method of building. By cutting stones to exact sizes, Inca builders needed nothing to hold walls together other     10     the perfect fit of the stones.

What defines a healthy city Is it a place with a lot of open spaces    1    people can exercise and enjoy the fresh air .A place with little or no pollution .A place in which people can     2    (free) socialize and express their ideas Perhaps, it’s all that plus more. Other considerations are the availability of health and fitness facilities, an excellent healthcare program and sincere efforts by    3    local government to actively promote health and wellness among its citizens. Of all the cities in the world, one of the top six     4     (healthy) cities is Copenhagen, Denmark.

Copenhageners love to walk. Foot traffic accounts    5    80% of all traffic in the Copenhagen city center. Those who prefer can also bike. It is estimated that more than a third of all work trips in Copenhagen    6    (carry) out on a bike. As for the climate here, the city does not have the blessing of pleasant weather all year round.    7    everything starts to freeze, it turns several city squares into huge skating fields. The frozen parts of the city also make    8    easier for residents to skate around. The city also has museums and art galleries for the kids and    9    (grown-up). It has the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Art and the Royal Library housed in a rather grand building    10    (call) the Black Diamond.

A grape seed that falls into the soil of Xinjiang is very fortunate, as Xinjiang is     1     (well) suited for growing grapes than anywhere else. Here, a grape seed can grow to its full potential. With the high altitudes (海拔)，long periods of dry weather and abundant sunshine, Xinjiang produces fruits with     2     (extreme) high sugar content. Every fall, a large number of grapes are shipped from Xinjiang to other parts of China, and the rest     3     (make) into raisins for easy storage.

In the vineyards of Moyu, thanks     4     the hot and dry climate     5     results from being surrounded by the desert, huge quantities of large and juicy grapes with very thin skins are produced. These grapes bring wealth as well as their delicious     6     (sweet) to the locals.

In mid-September, when their Seedless White grapes     7     (ripe), local farmers are busy picking grapes to be transported to other parts of the country.     8     (bunch) of glowing white grapes hang on the vines, waiting to be picked. If you pick     9     and put it in your mouth, you will surely never forget the wonderful taste     10     (produce) by the burning sun and the desert wind of southern Xinjiang.

Mao Zedong wrote a poem in     1     he dreamed of “Walls of stone to hold back clouds and rain till a smooth lake rises in the narrow gorges”. Now his dream has come true. The power of the Yangtze River, which is the world’s third     2     (long) river, has been harnessed by the Three Gorges Dam.

The dam is nearly 200 meters high. It is the largest hydro-electric power station and dam in the world and     3     (cost) more than any other construction project in history. Sun Yat-sen,     4     was the leader of the 1911 Revolution, first suggested the ides of a dam     5     the Yangtze River in 1919. Three quarters of China’s energy is produced by burning coal. In 1993, China used 1.2 billion tons of coal for heating and generating electricity.     6     (unfortunate), burning coal causes serious air     7     (pollute) and increases global warming. The dam will generate electricity equal     8     about 40 million tons of coal without causing so much air pollution.

The Three Gorges area is one of the most beautiful     9     (area) of China and the project has flooded some of China’s most famous historical sites, including the Qu Yuan Temple, the Han Watchtower and the Moya Cliff carvings. Besides, the reservoir has flooded 2 cities. But now the people who have moved from their homes are living     10     happy new life.
