On Oct. 22, travel guide Lonely Planet listed Guizhou as one of the top 10 places to visit in 2020. Guizhou truly deserves(值得) this praise.
Seated in Southwest China, Guizhou is one of China’s “natural jewels(珍宝)”. It has beautiful mountains, lovely lakes and unique karst landforms(喀斯特地貌).
Visitors can see an amazing view of 700,000 cherry trees in bloom(鲜花盛开) in March. Guizhou also has Asia’s tallest waterfall, Huangguoshu Waterfall, and Asia’s longest cave(洞穴), Shuanghe Cave.

Because of the mountainous landscape(景观), modern life has been slow to arrive. Many people still live according to old traditions. For example, many Miao people still live in wooden houses that are lifted up on stilts(桩子).
The mouth-watering food is also something you can’t miss in Guizhou. Chili chicken, Kaili sour soup fish…sour and spicy flavours are typical(典型的) here. With its unique natural landscape, colourful local cultures and lovely food, it’s no wonder that Guizhou’s name translates as “precious(宝贵的) land”.

28.D 细节理解题。全文介绍了贵州美景、当地文化和特色美食,A项和C项属于当地文化的一部分,B项属于贵州美景,故选D。
29.D 细节理解题。选项A(苗族是贵州最小的少数民族)、选项B(不是很多人喜欢吃贵州菜)、选项C(贵州是中国最宝贵之地)均与文意不符。根据最后一段中“sour and spicy flavours are typical here”可知D项正确。

Sydney is really a beautiful city. This is my second day here. I visited Taronga Zoo together with my parents today. Taronga Zoo, which is very close to the Sydney Opera House, is a city zoo. It opened in 1916 and is the home to over 4,000 animals. It is such a nice place to visit that we spent the whole day there. In the zoo we saw a lot of animals from all over the world such as elephants, giraffes and tigers. We also saw many local animals such as strong kangaroos, cute koalas and large emus. Besides, we watched the famous bird show and sea lion show in the zoo.
In a word, it was a nice day for me. I'm looking forward to tomorrow's trip to other places in Sydney.
