In recent years, food has apparently become a new hot spot for Chinese cities to attract tourists. Following Zibo and Harbin, Tianshui,     1     ancient city in Northwest China's Gansu Province, became the     2     (hot) tourists destination of 2024 because of malatang, a local street dish.

Malatang,     3     (literal) meaning “numbing, spicy, and hot” in Chinese, is a common street food that can be found all over China, but its tastes differ depending     4     the region.

3 . When it comes to high-proof fathering lessons, few adventures can compare with the motorcycle trip I shared with my 20-year-old daughter Ewa.

In 2023, we _________ a one-week motorcycle trip in the southern part of British Columbia. Each _________ a motorcycle, we headed north on the Sea-to-Sky highway.

“China is rich in geological heritage, with a broad distribution and a complete range of geological types,” Ren Fang,     3     expert with the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, told People's Daily. “It is one of the first countries worldwide to propose and establish national geoparks.”

China set up national-level geoparks and began applying for Global Geopark status in 2003 in response to UNESCO's initiative     4     (establish) the Global Geoparks Network (GGN) . In 2004, Beijing witnessed the First International Conference on Geoparks,     5     17 European geoparks and eight Chinese geoparks joined the GGN. The network aims to promote best     6     (practice) and high standards for the conservation of geological heritage and the promotion of     7     (sustain) regional economic development.

The Mount Changbaishan Geopark, newly     8       (add) to the GGN network, is situated in Jilin Province and is home     9     the “millennium eruption,” a massive volcanic event that occurred roughly1, 000 years ago. Renowned for its Quaternary volcanic landforms, the park, spanning 2, 723 square km,     10     (feature) giant compound volcanic cones, ancient eruptions and their deposits, and the splendid Tianchi lake. With over 380 craters, it boasts the highest number, greatest density, and widest distribution of volcanic rock types in East Asia.

7 . Four Best Lakes in Oregon

Crater Lake

The country’s deepest lake with a depth of nearly 2,000 feet, there are few other lakes in the world that can compare to the intense blue colour of Crater Lake. Located in Oregon’s only national park, the often still waters reflect the mountain peaks that surround it like a dark blue mirror. It was created more than 7,500 years ago by the collapse of Mount Mazama and attracts many outdoor adventurers who come to swim, fish, take a boat tour, hike, and camp. It’s even a popular diving site with the chance to dive into a flooded volcano.

Crane Prairie Reservoir

Located in the Cascade Mountains just over 40 miles southwest of Bend, Crane Prairie Reservoir offers 24 miles of shoreline and some of the best rainbow trout (鳟鱼) fishing in Oregon, with catches that are usually over 10 pounds. Brook trout, whitefish, largemouth bass, and kokanee salmon also live in its waters.

Wallowa Lake

Located just south of the town of Joseph in the corner of northeast Oregon, Wallowa Lake sits at the doorstep of the state’s largest wilderness area, Eagle Cap. It’s surrounded on three sides by 9,000-foot-high mountains. On land, there are hiking, biking, horseback riding, and wildlife watching can all be enjoyed.

Hosmer Lake

A hidden jewel in the Cascade Range, Hosmer Lake is a locals’ favourite about 20 miles from Bend along the Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway. The secluded (隔绝的) setting makes it ideal for nature enthusiasts who want to enjoy its beauty. Fly fishing with only the sounds of the birds along the shore can be enjoyed too.

8 . How to prepare for a museum visit

●Decide which museum to go to.

If you’re visiting a small city, then it’s pretty simple. Your choices will necessarily be limited. If you’re going to a big city like London, Paris or Rome, then you’re faced with a large number of choices.     1     You may prefer small less crowded museums to large museums.

●Identify the museum’s masterpieces.

Once you’ve chosen a museum to visit, visit the museum’s website.     2     Then, read up on its collection and highlights. This kind of pre-trip studying will make the art and artifacts (文物) more fun and accessible.

●Decide how long you want to visit a museum.

Another good tip for visiting a museum is to decide in advance how long you want to stay. This may depend on the size of the museum. Or, it may depend on how long you can stare at art without getting “museum tiredness” and starting to glaze (变呆滞) over the artworks.     3    

●Get a museum or audio guide.

Another way to have an enjoyable and relaxing museum visit is to book a private tour, especially for a very large museum or popular tourist attraction. The tour guide knows the museum very well.     4     Besides, Museums typically have either free or docent (讲解员) museum tours available as well. They are super informative and usually last roughly two hours. And you’ll also have a chance to ask any questions.

●    5    

If you’re visiting a big museum, you’ll want to be efficient with your time. In the case, the best museum tip is to look at the layout of the building in advance. Some museums are shockingly disorganized, sometimes because they’re housed in ancient buildings.

A．Learn the museum layout.

B．So you’ll get a deep look at the museum highlights.

C．Check out the hours and what day the museum is open.

D．It’s a good idea to figure out your parking options in advance.

E．As the length of a museum visit increases, your attention decreases.

F．Most museums have virtual tours or online collections that you can explore.

G．If that’s the case, do your research and pick a museum that matches your interest.

10 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

When it comes to using winter tourism to boost its economy, Harbin seems to have already taken the first step. No one had expected such     1     (crazy) to occur in this far northern city. During the three-day New Year’s holiday, more than three million tourists crowded into the city. And the snowball effect of social media has suddenly turned the “ice city”     2     a hot spot.

The Zhongyang Street is an old street     3     (locate) in the center of Harbin. These Russian-style architectures reflect the diverse history of the city. The most famous snack here is ice cream,     4     during the holiday of the New Year’s Eve, 100,000 pieces     5     (sell). Obviously, no freezer is needed.

The winter wonderland is a symbolic tourist attraction of Harbin. Here, excitement is the     6     (easy) thing to find. This year’s seasonal theme park covers an area of over800, 000 square meters.     7     (stand) at the top of the Ice and Snow World, I realized that the reason Harbin could have such a success story was just that it is Harbin. It is the Harbin     8     local residents will give free rides to tourists, where the     9     (authority) would prepare public warming shelters and where you can     10     (total) enjoy yourself with no worries at all.
