You can visit the Great Wall, the Palace Museum, Tian’anmen Square and many     39     places of interest. People here are very friendly. They’re always ready(准备好的) to help people in     40    . You can also taste     41     kinds of foods here. They are     42     delicious that you’ll never forget. I don’t think     43     is the best time to come in August because it’s very hot here.
