话题10一带一路
(一)
China now has more than 30, 000 kilometers of high speed track, and this is expected to increase to 38,000 kilometers by 2025. Fully two thirds of the world’s high speed rail(by length)is in China. Here, we track the exciting technological developments in high speed rail and consider their cultural influence.
While the main advantage of the high speed rail lines is convenience for people to get from one city to another as quickly as possible, some of these high speed lines have become popular tourist attractions(places that many tourists visit). A good example of this is the Hefei-Fuzhou high speed line. Technically speaking, this was one of the most challenging high speed rail routes ever built; nearly 90% of the track was laid either on bridges or in tunnels(隧道). However, the amazing views are worth it, as the train goes through some of China’s most beautiful mountainous areas, including the Huangshan and the Wuyi Mountain Ranges.
As China has gained skills and knowledge in high speed rail, it is trying to export(出口)its technology to other countries. Its first project on the international market was the line connecting Istanbul with Turkey’s capital, Ankara, 530 kilometers away. This was followed by projects among other countries. Perhaps its most challenging project is a Trans Asian network(横贯亚洲铁路网)connecting China with Europe. Although it is difficult, China will make every effort to take on this plan. It is hoped to be completed by 2030 as a part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative(一带一路的倡议).
Thanks to high speed rail, the travel time between main cities in China has already been reduced to only a few hours. So this convenience should improve the development within and out of China. No doubt, it will also bring the people of the country closer together, and in time bring about deep social changes.
1.How many kilometers of high speed track does China have now
A.Over 38,000. B.Over 30,000. C.Over 45,000. D.Over 57,000.

3.What is the most challenging project that China plans to take on
A.Inventing faster trains. B.Connecting China with Europe.
C.Designing and building its own trains. D.Connecting the whole country in 2030.

A road is a bridge between two places. The Silk Road has been a bridge between the East and the West for more than 2,000 years.
But do you know the Silk Road is not a single route(路线)
It is a series of trade and cultural transmission(传送) routes. It began during the Western Han Dynasty. The trade route starts from the city of Xi’an in Shaanxi Province and ends in Eastern Europe, near today’s Turkey and the Mediterranean Sea(地中海). The Silk Road was about 6, 500 kilometers long. It went across 25% of the planet.
The Silk Road got its name because Chinese silk used to be carried along this road. Besides silk, jade and iron went West to Rome. From the West came glass, jewels, and food like carrots and sesame.
The Silk Road was very important to both China and the rest of the world. Besides trade, knowledge about science, arts and technologies was shared across the Silk Road. In this way, languages and cultures developed and influenced each other.
Today, people around the world travel in the places along the Silk Road, such as the Terracotta Warriors in Xi’an and Mogao Grottoes(莫高窟) in Dunhuang, Gansu. Now, beginning in August, a new train line, the New Orient Express, runs from Beijing across the Silk Road.

The Silk Road is the name of different roads that long ago connected Europe, Africa And Asia. People reached these different places along these roads. Scientists believe people began to travel the Silk Road about 3,000 years ago. By the time the Chinese silk trade became important in the world, the Silk Road had covered almost 6,500 kilometers. It spread from Rome to China, which is from the West to the Far East.
Traders traveling along the Silk Road carried silk of course. They also carried and traded spices(香料), cloth, valuable stones and gold.
There is a famous old story along the old road. It is said that Roman soldiers traveled through central Asia. They started to live somewhere near the ancient Chinese village of Liqian. Some of these Romans married local Chinese women and the story of blue-eyed villages of China was started.
During its busiest period, the Silk Road allowed people from many different cultures and countries to meet each other and mix. The Silk Road allowed the sharing of valuable goods and new ideas. These included people and trading goods from the Mediterranean, Persian, Magyar, American, Britain, Indian and Chinese areas. All these people traveled the Silk Road, and they shared goods, stories, languages and cultures.
In modern times, the old Silk Road routes(路线)are still used, but now they are crossed by trains instead of camels and horses. There is even a Silk Route Museum in Jiuquan in China. It has over 35,000 objects from all along the Silk Road. In this way, China protects the history of many countries and peoples.
