Beijing in 2026 gives travelers fresh ways to explore this most culture-rich of capitals. For starters, the Beijing
Central Axis—a nearly five-mile strip of imperial and ceremonial buildings and gardens—is a recent addition to
UNESCO’s World Heritage List, and a new sightseeing bus makes it easier to get a look at the highlights: the
Temple of Heaven, Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the Drum and Bell Towers, all stunning examples of
ancient Chinese city planning.
More imperial history awaits at the Ming Tombs, where a project is under way to gradually open all 13
complexes. The tomb of Emperor Chongzhen, who hanged himself as rebels stormed the city, was among the first
three to allow visitors, with more to come as soon as 2026. In the mountains to the north, the majestic Great Wall
has emerged as the new star of Beijing’s nighttime economy. Located within the city, the Mutianyu and Juyongguan
sections of the wall have joined Badaling and Simatai in holding warm-weather after-dark tours, with spectacular
读时文精读
illuminations. South of Beijing, a new hiking trail has been established at Zhoukoudian, where bones of Peking
Man were discovered.
Travel logistics to, from, and around Beijing are getting easier. Visa-free stays of up to 30 days have been
extended into 2026 for 47 countries, while foreign nationals from 55 countries, including the United States, the
United Kingdom, and Canada, can spend 10 days in the capital visa free, provided they either arrive from or depart
to a country different from their port of origin. Travelers can now tap in and out of the Beijing Subway using
foreign credit cards, and Chinese smartphone apps are slowly offering versions with English interfaces, making
exploration smoother than ever.

Passage1 阅读理解
Situated at the center of Beijing’s central axis ( 轴), the Forbidden City, formerly known as the Purple
Forbidden City, is a magnificent architectural complex (建筑群) that once served as the imperial palace of the Ming
and Qing dynasties. This grand palace complex has attracted countless tourists from all over the world, who come
to admire its splendor and learn about its rich past.
The architectural style of the Forbidden City is a remarkable reflection of traditional Chinese craftsmanship
and aesthetics. It features a well-proportioned design along the central axis, with the main buildings positioned
precisely on this line. The use of a timber framework (木材框架) structure, where parts are joined by mortise and
tenon joints, not only showcases advanced building techniques of ancient China but also ensures the stability and
flexibility of the buildings. Diverse roof forms like gable and hip roofs enhance the visual charm and represent
different levels of importance. The combination of red walls, yellow tiles, and white railings symbolizes imperial
power and prosperity. Elegant decorations such as carvings, colored paintings, and glazed tiles further boost the
beauty of the buildings.
Construction of the Forbidden City started in 1406 during the Ming Dynasty’s Yongle period and was
completed in 1420 after 14 years. For centuries, it was the country’s political and cultural center, where 24 Ming
and Qing emperors lived and ruled. It witnessed many historical events. After the 1911 Revolution ended the feudal
monarchy, Puyi was expelled in 1924, and the Forbidden City’s role as a royal residence ceased. In 1925, it was
transformed into the Palace Museum and opened to the public.
Today, the Forbidden City is a precious historical and cultural heritage and a symbol of China’s long history.
It’s a window for the world to understand Chinese culture. The many cultural relics inside offer insights into ancient
Chinese civilization. The government’s protection and restoration efforts ensure it can be passed down. As one of
the world’s largest ancient palace complexes, it still attracts tourists and scholars, promoting cultural exchanges and
heritage preservation.
1.What is the function of the mortise and tenon joints in the timber framework structure?
A.To make the buildings look more colorful.
B.To ensure that the buildings are solid, stable and adaptable.
练好题精练
C.To increase the number of rooms in the palace.
D.To make the construction process faster.
2.The word “aesthetics” in paragraph 2 probably means ______.
A.scientific principles.
B.artistic concepts and beauty.
C.practical functions.
D.historical events.
3.When did the Forbidden City stop being a royal residence?
A.In 1406 when its construction started.
B.In 1420 when it was completed.
C.In 1911 after the Revolution of 1911.
D.In 1924 when Puyi was forced out of the palace.
4.What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?
A.To introduce architectural style of the Forbidden City.
B.To provide an account of how the emperors lived in the Forbidden City.
C.To stress the cultural and historical significance of the Forbidden City.
D.To describe the restoration challenges of the Forbidden City.
Passage2 阅读理解
One week after I started working in Beijing, I decided to visit a place of interest called the Summer Palace.
Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but it’s
surrounded by beautiful greenery and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer
Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it, it could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set
off.
The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on the top of a large
hill overlooking the lake and is worth a climb. It was built as a place to worship the Buddha. And in the Summer
Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Pictures of most of the
Buddhas and the other artifacts are off
⁃ limits
for photographers.
Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and
other theater items. There are box seats that surround the stage and it was the largest stage created in Imperial
China. You could almost imagine royalty reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage.
I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side
where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric boat or paddleboat if you
want. But since it was just me, I went aboard one of the biggest boats with other people.
I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didn’t see all of it because it was
getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again.
5.What did the author do before setting off for the Summer Palace?
A.Asked others about it.
B.Learned something about it.
C.Spent three hours researching it.
D.Rented a boat.
6.What does the underlined word “off⁃limits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Forbidden.
B.Allowed.
C.Charged.
D.Limited.
7.What do we know about the stage mentioned in the text?
A.It sits on the top of a hill.
B.It is the largest stage all over China.
C.It was for royalty to watch performances. D.Operas are performed there at times.
8.Which of the following correctly describes the author’s tour?
A.She took a boat by herself.
B.She spent four hours in the Summer Palace.
C.She didn’t enjoy the trip because it was too late.
D.She only toured part of the Summer Palace.
