Beijing is an old capital city developing at a fast pace. The Forbidden City is the ideal place for you to begin your exploration of Beijing by opening its mysterious (神奇的) face. With over 9 ,000 rooms and over 250 acres (英畝) ,this large palace building was built between 1406 and 1420. The Forbidden City burned down and was rebuilt,sacked and renovated (修復) for times,so most of the architecture (建筑) you can see today dates back to the 18th century in the Qing Dynasty. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes as you have to walk a lot!
There is a Starbucks in the palace in case you need some coffee to recharge you. I highly recommend you to have a guide. It is quite helpful to have a guide escort (護送) you and tell the stories behind the palace. If you are a non-group tourist,I suggest you rent a multilingual guide recorder either at Meridian Gate (southern gate of Forbidden City) or the Gate of Divine Prowess (Northern gate of Forbidden City) and return it when you finish your Forbidden City Tour. Remember the open hours from 8: 30 to 17: 00.
() 1. The Forbidden City was built for years.
A. 10 B. 12 C. 14 D. 16
() 2. The underlined word “recommended” means .
A. 支持 B. 鼓勵 C. 命令 D. 推薦
() 3. If you go to the Forbidden City,youJd better have a .
A. map B. guide C. book D. recorder
() 4. You can't visit the Forbidden City at .
A. 8:00 B. 8:30 C. 12:00 D. 16:00
閱讀提示:這篇文章主要介紹了紫禁城的修建歷史及作者強力推薦的原因。
1. C推理判斷題。由文章第一段第三句“…this large palace building was built between 1406 and 1420. ”可以 推算出 紫禁城修建了 14年。
2. D詞義猜測題。句意為:我強烈推薦你找一位導游。
3. B細節(jié)理解題。由文章第二段第三句“It is quite helpful to have a guide escort (護送) you and tell the stories behind the palace 可知 作者建議有導游陪同,講述紫禁城的故事。
4. A 細節(jié)理解題。由文章最后一句“Remember the open hours from 8:30 tol7:00. ”可知8:00紫禁城不對外開放。

Cherub suggested ,“Let's play hide-and-seek (捉迷藏) .” They were having so much fun that they didn't realize they had swum far from home. Suddenly,Cherub saw a large shark (鯊魚) swimming above them. “It was Big White. .. the biggest,scariest shark in the sea ,” she shouted to Oliver. Cherub looked at Big White hopelessly.

Then Oliver and Cherub escaped and got home safely.
“Are you OK?” asked Oliver. Cherub laughed happily ,“That was the most interesting trip ever!You saved me just now,Oliver.

A new study shows women need 60 minutes to exercise a day to stop weight increasing if they have a normal diet.
The findings suggest women need more exercise than the current federal guidelines (聯(lián)邦指南) of 150 minutes a week,or 30 minutes five days a week.
The study is being published in the March 24/31 edition of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
“I don't want people to throw up their hands and say,I can't do it ,” said Dr Min Lee,the study's lead researcher.
Women at a normal weight who have a normal diet can beat middle-age weight gain by working out intensely (高強度) for 30 minutes a day,whether by running,cycling,swimming laps or working out at a gym. Weight gain can also be prevented with 60 minutes of moderate activity,such as walking,a leisurely bike ride or playing catch.
Overall,women gained an average of 5. 7 pounds in the study. However,those who were of normal weight,kept their weight if they exercised for 60 minutes a day. Women who exercised less generally gained weight. Dr Lee said for overweight women,60 minutes of exercise a day wasn’t enough to keep weight,suggesting cutting the calories (熱量) .

閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)要求完成下列各題。
Lu Xun is one of the greatest Chinese writers of the 20th century. Besides his famous stories,he also wrote many influential articles about the living conditions of Chinese people.
Born in 1881 to a wealthy family,Lu Xun had a happy childhood. In 1893,however,his grandfather,a senior government official,was put into prison for taking money. At the same time,his father became badly ill. From then on,his family was no longer accepted by their relatives and friends. These early experiences greatly influenced his writing.
By the time Lu Xun arrived in Nanjing to study at university in 1899,he already believed that Chinese society had to change and become modern. In 1902 he went to study in Japan. There he began writing articles for several Chinese students magazines. He showed a gift for writing and translating and he even wrote several books,although none was popular. He returned to China in 1909 because he was in need of money.
After working for several years as a teacher in Beijing,Lu Xun again returned to writing. In 1918,he wrote his famous short story Diary of a Madman. It was the first Chinese novel published using the everyday language that people spoke,which helped make it a great success. This,together with his novel The True Story of Ah Q (1921) , made Lu Xun a leading Chinese writer.
Although successful,Lu Xun still worried greatly about China's future. In 1927,he moved to Shanghai and gave up writing stories in order to devote himself to what he called “pen warfare”. He only wrote articles which called on the people to fight against the government. For this,the government stopped him from publishing any more books. He had to write his articles using false names.
Since his death in 1936,Lu Xun's importance and influence have grown. Today,many of his writings are included in school textbooks and his works are read by millions around the world.[2013 廣東廣州改編]
1. What greatly influenced Lu Xun's writing according to the passage?
