Sample:
Lijiang is an ancient city high up in the mountains of Yunnan, near the borders of Sichuan and Tibet. It was an important stop on the Ancient Tea and Horse Road, which connected central China with Myanmar and India, transporting not just tea but also silk and other goods. Lijiang's Old Town, with a history of over 800 years, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Today, Lijiang is mostly known for its ethnic minority culture, especially the culture of the Naxi ethnic group. The Naxi are famous for their Dongba culture. They have their own unique written language that uses pictures and symbols.
Welcome to Lijiang!
They also create beautiful arts and crafts, and are well known for their singing and dancing. Strolling around the Old Town, one can witness Naxi life much as it was hundreds of years ago. One can also try traditional Naxi food, including the air-dried pork liver, Naxi baba (a kind of flat bread), and Naxi hot pot. But if you really want to see Naxi traditional culture, it is best to visit during the Torch Festival, which usually occurs in the summer. During the festival, the streets are full of torches, bonfires, and lots of people singing and dancing.
While the main ethnic group living in the area is the Naxi. there are also at least 19 other ethnic groups, including Yi, Lisu, Bai, Tibetan, and Pumi. It is easy to arrange a short homestay with an ethnic minority family to learn more about their way of life.
Just outside the city, there are beautiful mountains, meadows, lakes, rivers, and gorges, offering plenty of opportunities to go hiking, kayaking, or rafting. Like much of Yunnan, the weather is always fairly mild in Lijiang, so it is fine to visit throughout the year. Lijiang can be easily reached by airplane or train, and visitors can hire bikes or cars to explore the area. It is the perfect place for tourists to experience the colorful culture of China's ethnic minorities.

There is a big Russian influence there, with beautiful Russian architecture and lots of interesting restaurants. I learnt that Harbin is called “the Oriental Moscow” and that many Russians settled there to help build the railway over 100 years ago.

目标二：To learn to make the right pauses
Activity : Listen to the passage about Native Americans. Mark the pauses you hear. The first sentence has been done for you.
No one really knows exactly when the first people arrived in what we now know as California. Its likely that Native Americans moved to California at least fifteen thousand years ago. Scientists believe that these settlers crossed the Bering Strait by a land bridge which existed in prehistoric times. In the 16th century, the native people suffered greatly after the arrival of the Europeans. Thousands of them were killed or forced into slavery. In addition, many died from the diseases brought by the Europeans. However, some survived these terrible times, and today there are more Native Americans living in California than in any other state of America.
Listen again and repeat.
Pausing in speaking is to give one a chance to breathe, and pauses should be normally used:When there would normally be punctuation, such as commas or periods, in a written text.At the end of each long unit of meaning, for example, long noun phrases or adjective clauses.For transitions, when the speaker is introducing another idea.For emphasis. Pausing before and after the most important words highlights and draws the listener’s attention to them.
