Located in the centre of the Netherlands, Utrecht is the capital city of the smallest province in the
country. It’s essentially a smaller and friendlier version of Amsterdam, with canals, shops and street cafés.
Walk through history
“Watch out for the bikes,” said our guide on the morning’s walking tour. Utrecht bikes are old, and
they weave among pedestrians with skill, sometimes seeming to miss you only by a hair.
The high point of the walk is the 14th-century Dom Tower, standing at 367 ft. Its presence ensures that
you can never get lost in the city. Utrecht’s main canal, the Oudegracht, is very pretty. It is lined with
wharfs(码头), which have been turned into businesses, restaurants and so on.
The Dom Tower
You can see Amsterdam if you climb the 456 steps of the Dom Tower. And if your legs give out
before the top, at least try to reach the astonishing bell tower. The bells, which are centuries old, are so big
that they can only be rung once a year to prevent the tower from being damaged. A different set of bells
provide the daily ding-dong. A woman plays these bells like a piano once a week.
The museum under the tower, Dom Under, shows the Roman foundation of the city, which dates back
to 47 AD. It is a brilliant exhibition, making you feel like an archaeological(考古学的) dig.
Eating and shopping
The best place to eat is the atmospheric Graaf Floris. It’s an old-fashioned coffee shop where the menu
is simple but hearty.
Shopping in Utrecht is fun. There are familiar clothing chains, such as Mango and Zara, but the real
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂pleasure lies in the unusual little boutiques(精品店) selling curious art, board games and antiques.
The hotels
I wasn’t very impressed with the post-modern Court Hotel situated in the former Utrecht Courthouse
—although its location is perfect and the bar is nice. But the Mother Goose Hotel with its industrial cutting-
edge interiors(室内设计) is highly recommended.
1. What may make you feel like walking through history?
A. Utrecht bikes. B. The Dom Tower.
C. The Oudegracht. D. The wharfs.
2. The underlined part “give out” probably means “ ”.
A. get hurt B. build up
C. get tired D. break out
3. Where might the author live if he visits Utrecht?
A. Mother Goose Hotel. B. Court Hotel.
C. Graaf Floris. D. Utrecht Courthouse.

The Beijing Opera first appeared in the 18th-19th centuries. This art became the cultural jewel of
Beijing, but it actually began in Hubei Province and Anhui Province. Through time, it spread past the Great
Wall of China into other countries.
Dancers in the Beijing Opera are always beautiful. Stories usually deal with Chinese old history and
are shown through songs, dance, music, and dialogues. Bright-coloured costumes are the key in the Beijing
Opera, as performers wish to be the centre of attention on stage. The Beijing Opera always has historical
value.
Performers in the Beijing Opera start training at a very young age, and training continues for seven
years. A performer’s day starts very early. Once students reach senior year, they will be allowed to do

Today, the most famous schools for the Beijing Opera are the Ma Lianliang School, and the Cheng Yanqiu
School.
There are four leading characters that bring the Beijing Opera together: Sheng, Dan, Jing and
Chou. Sheng, the male lead includes Laosheng, the old and wise man; Xiaosheng, the younger man and
Wusheng, the warrior. Dan is the female lead and is separated into five categories: Laodan, the older
woman; Wudan, the middle-aged married woman; Daomadan, the brave female warrior; Qingyi, the
righteous(正直的) woman, and Huadan, the innocent(天真无邪的), young girl. Jing, mostly male, is the
face-painted role. Chou is the minor male clown role; he is mostly only there to add a little bit of humour
to the more serious scenes.
The drama is filled with music, which is separated into two categories: Xipi and Erhuang. Based on
this music and due to the sudden change in time and location, the Beijing Opera’s former name, Pihuang,
was changed to what it is today.

When you got sick, did your parents and doctors make you drink a “terrible soup”? 1 , but it can
really make you feel better in several days. The “soup” is actually a kind of traditional Chinese medicine
(TCM).
In recent years, TCM has become more popular around the world.
2 . China has 10 TCM centres abroad, such as in France and the United States. Doctors give TCM
treatment to local people there. They also teach TCM to local people. Now, there are over 100,000 TCM
clinics, with about 300,000 TCM workers around the world.
TCM came from China thousands of years ago. It is based on the Chinese philosophy(哲学) of yin
and yang. Humans should follow the natural rules to keep healthy. Old Greece and Egypt created Western
medicine. 3 . Western doctors check people’s height, weight, blood pressure and body temperature.
4 . “Bringing together Western medicine and TCM can use collective knowledge, rather than
create competition between them. It can develop the great effects of both of them,” said Bernhard
Schwartlander, a World Health Organization representative in China.
On Dec. 6, a government document reported that 86 countries and regions are now developing TCM
together with China. In 2015, Chinese scientist Tu Youyou won the Nobel Prize. 5 . Today, with more
and more people paying attention to TCM, it will definitely have a bright future.
