Into a new era
Read the passage and answer the questions. Pay attention to the expressions in bold.
More than 40 years ago, China began to implement the reform and opening-up policy, starting out on a journey that would pave the way for China to become a fully-modernised socialist country. The policy has had a great influence on Chinese society. It has allowed China to accomplish in just four decades what took Western industrialised countries more than 200 years to achieve, breaking new ground in the history of human achievement. This ongoing journey is allowing China to share the fruits of its success and develop further alongside other countries. What’s more, the Belt and Road Initiative will mean a new dawn for trade and investment between countries, leading into a new era of prosperity.

Walking home a few days ago, I saw that people were doing reconstruction work on the old market. It would be turned into a modern shopping mall. Some people were tearing down the old gate. Some were removing the wooden stands. Some were clearing away rubbish from the floor. While all this was going on, a journalist was taking photos. The resulting story in the local newspaper divided the people of the town: some were in favour of the new shopping mall, and some were against it.

Into a new era
Read the passage and answer the questions. Pay attention to the expressions in bold.
More than 40 years ago, China began to implement the reform and opening-up policy, starting out on a journey that would pave the way for China to become a fully-modernised socialist country. The policy has had a great influence on Chinese society. It has allowed China to accomplish in just four decades what took Western industrialised countries more than 200 years to achieve, breaking new ground in the history of human achievement. This ongoing journey is allowing China to share the fruits of its success and develop further alongside other countries. What’s more, the Belt and Road Initiative will mean a new dawn for trade and investment between countries, leading into a new era of prosperity.
