　　Gulangyu, a beautiful island was successfully listed in the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage(世界文化遗产) on July 8th, 2017. It's not only the pride of my hometown, but the pride of the whole nation.
Gulangyu is separated from Xiamen by the 600-meter-wide Egret River(鹭江), with an area of 1.88 square kilometers. It's like a garden on the sea. You can go there only by ship, because cars, buses and bikes are not allowed to run on the island. It is so quiet that wherever you go, you can hear the sound of playing the piano. As a result, it is called "The Island of Music".
The first name of the island was Yuanzhouzi. In the Ming Dynasty it was renamed Gulangyu, as Gulang means "drum waves". The holes in the southwestern reefs hit by the waves make sounds like the drum beating.
Today, Gulangyu is listed as one of the nation's major travelling places. The main places of interest here include the Sunlight Rock, Shuzhuang Garden, Gang Zai Hou Beach and Zheng Chenggong Memorial Hall which are visited by millions of people from all parts of the country and other countries in the world. What's more, the buildings and food are popular with visitors.

D(2021·江苏镇江二模)
　　A travel journal(日志) is one of the best ways to keep a long journey in memory. Many details that don't seem important while you are writing your travel journal often turn out to be so memorable.
　　　　 When you are on a busy journey, it is easy to forget to write. You may promise yourself that you will write later, but that almost never happens. Take a few minutes every day and write down your memories. It doesn't have to be long, just on a regular basis (定期).
Use your spare time for your travel journal. There is a surprising amount of sitting around while travelling. You can always write down a few lines in your travel journey when you are on trains, waiting for planes, drying your clothes or waiting in line.
　　　　 They include the date, where you are, who you are with, maybe even the weather and what you eat. Besides, write down the date in your heading. Many years later, when you read your journal, you will know exactly what you were doing on that day.
　　　　 Listing facts is fine but that isn't why you travelled. A long journey is a time for careful thoughts. Memories of these feelings disappear quickly with time.Writing about the feelings while the memories are fresh is important.
Keep ticket stubs (存根). Whenever you use a ticket for a train or a museum or a ride, tape the stubs to your journal. They are pieces of history from your journey. Years later you can look at the ticket stubs and see exactly what you were doing on a specific day and how much it cost.
(　　)36.Which of the following does NOT agree with (与……相符) the passage
A. Date your travel in your heading.
B. Review your journal afterwards.
C. Write your travel journal regularly.
D. Focus on your feelings while writing.
(　　)37.What's the correct order of the three missing sentences
① Never forget to write about how you feel.
② Get into the habit of writing your travel journal about your journey every day.
③At the beginning, write down the first details people usually forget easily.
A. ②→③→① B. ①→③→②
C. ①→②→③ D. ②→①→③
(　　)38.What does the passage mainly talk about
A. The importance of a travel journal.
B. The tips on how to travel happily.
C. The ways of writing a travel journal.
D. The activities that make the trip memorable.
E(2021·辽宁大连中山区一模改编)
　　What does taking the train mean to you Perhaps it's just a way of getting to your destination (目的地). In fact, the train itself can be part of the fun.
On March 28, China's first panda-themed tourist train left Chengdu, Sichuan for Zunyi, Guizhou.It soon became the talk of China with its special design and comfortable service.
Its inside and outside are decorated with giant panda pictures. Attendants(乘务员) carry panda toys and passengers can try panda-shaped food as well as Sichuan snacks. Some people call it a "mobile star hotel"because it has a bar, karaoke room and dance hall. Passengers can take showers and use its 5G network as well. This high level service has attracted travellers.
In the fast-paced times we live in, train travel is a good way to slow down.It gives you time and space to read, sleep and chat with friends, or simply do nothing but watch the changing scenery outside.
Sheng Yawei, 26,once took the longest railway in the world — Siberian Railway. "Running from Moscow to Vladivostok, it took me six days.It was like a time travel experience. The route covers eight time zones(时区)," Sheng said."The rivers, forests, mountains, and deserted countryside along the way made me feel peaceful."
Train travel is also filled with surprises. You might meet new people. Sheng met a Russian college student and they became friends. "Though we didn't understand each other's language, it made me feel nice."

The best place I've been to
Have you ever been to Yunnan I have. I think it's the best place I've been to.
I went to Yunnan with my parents by car when I was 10 years old. When we got to Yunnan,we fell in love with the beauty of nature.My father didn't use to take photos. To our surprise,he stopped the car on the way to Gaoligong Mountain and asked my mother and me to take some photos.We stayed in Yunnan for three days. The weather was nice. Though it was summer,it was neither hot nor cold, just like spring. We enjoyed different specials there. Sometimes,the food was really spicy and sour,but we couldn't stop eating.I also ate worms as food for the first time. It was really a big challenge. I would never forget it.
As long as I have time, I will go to Yunnan again. It has not only beautiful scenery, but also delicious food.
