For centuries，the people of Guoliang，a small Chinese village on top of a cliff (悬崖) in the Taihang Mountains，were virtually cut off from the outside world．The only way in and out of the village was the Sky Ladder，720 steps carved into the mountains during the Song Dynasty．This made it too hard to get things in and out of the village．
“It was a tough life．Products from the outside world could not reach the village．And our fresh farm products could not be taken out to other places，”72 year old villager Song Baoqun told Xinhua News．“We had to limit the weight of pigs to 50 or 60 kg．Otherwise it would be difficult to carry them down the mountain．”Guoliang struggled economically because of its isolation (隔离)，but the toughest challenge was getting a sick person to the hospital in time．If someone fell ill，eight people had to carry a stretcher down the mountain using the Sky Ladder，and then undertake a four hour journey to the nearest hospital．
However，everything changed in 1972，when the village council decided to carve a tunnel (隧道) through the mountains．Despite having no experience or engineering knowledge，13 of the strongest villagers in Guoliang volunteered to start work on the mountain tunnel．They lowered themselves on the sides of the Taihang Mountains with ropes and carved into the rock inch by inch with tools like chisels and hammers．As the tunnel started to take shape，more villagers joined．And within five years，the 1，250 metre long Guoliang Tunnel was completed．For the first time ever，the secluded village of Guoliang could be reached by car，and that changed everything．

Iceland is one of the most volcanically active nations in the world with a number of hot springs，all of which are heated naturally by volcanic activity．In fact，Iceland changes energy from these springs into electricity，which powers and heats people's homes．As a result，Iceland burns very little fossil (化石) fuel，such as oil and gas．Hot springs are also popular among tourists．They receive more than 1.3 million visitors a year，who can relax their muscles and release their tension in the hot water．

If exploring caves and glaciers doesn't interest you，head south．No trip to Iceland would be complete without a visit to the Golden Circle，which connects Gullfoss，Geysir，and Thingvellir Valley．Adventurers go to the Thingvellir Valley，where the land is actually separating and the stony ground beneath your feet frequently shifts．Hold on while you hike!

B 篇(限时7分钟)
For centuries，the people of Guoliang，a small Chinese village on top of a cliff (悬崖) in the Taihang Mountains，were virtually cut off from the outside world．The only way in and out of the village was the Sky Ladder，720 steps carved into the mountains during the Song Dynasty．This made it too hard to get things in and out of the village．
“It was a tough life．Products from the outside world could not reach the village．And our fresh farm products could not be taken out to other places，” 72-year-old villager Song Baoqun told Xinhua News．“We had to limit the weight of pigs to 50 or 60 kg．Otherwise it would be difficult to carry them down the mountain．” Guoliang struggled economically because of its isolation (隔离)，but the toughest challenge was getting a sick person to the hospital in time．If someone fell ill，eight people had to carry a stretcher down the mountain using the Sky Ladder，and then undertake a four-hour journey to the nearest hospital．
However，everything changed in 1972，when the village council decided to carve a tunnel (隧道) through the mountains．Despite having no experience or engineering knowledge，13 of the strongest villagers in Guoliang volunteered to start work on the mountain tunnel．They lowered themselves on the sides of the Taihang Mountains with ropes and carved into the rock inch by inch with tools like chisels and hammers．As the tunnel started to take shape，more villagers joined．And within five years，the 1，250-metre-long Guoliang Tunnel was completed．For the first time ever，the secluded village of Guoliang could be reached by car，and that changed everything．
Soon after the impressive tunnel was completed，Guoliang went from a small village which almost no one even knew to a popular tourist destination．Located at 1，700 metres above sea level，it offers fantastic scenery．However，it's the tunnel that attracts most visitors．

C 篇(限时7分钟)
Iceland is Europe's westernmost country．Over 1，000 years ago，ancient explorers migrated from northern Europe to Iceland and established the country．Most visitors' popular destination is its capital city，Reykjavik，known for its stylish architecture．The city's downtown area is lined with shops，art galleries，cafes，and bookstores．
Iceland is one of the most volcanically active nations in the world with a number of hot springs，all of which are heated naturally by volcanic activity．In fact，Iceland changes energy from these springs into electricity，which powers and heats people's homes．As a result，Iceland burns very little fossil (化石) fuel，such as oil and gas．Hot springs are also popular among tourists．They receive more than 1.3 million visitors a year，who can relax their muscles and release their tension in the hot water．
Apart from springs，there is a range of outdoor activities for visitors to enjoy elsewhere in the country．“Iceland is an adventure，” says Squire，whose company organises adventure trips．“We have Europe's biggest glaciers (冰山)，active volcanoes，cave explorations，and skiing．” One of Iceland's most popular attractions is caving．Exploring Iceland's unusual caves requires only basic caving knowledge and equipment．Ice caves are more challenging，however，and require special clothes and hiking tools．
If exploring caves and glaciers doesn't interest you，head south．No trip to Iceland would be complete without a visit to the Golden Circle，which connects Gullfoss，Geysir，and Thingvellir Valley．Adventurers go to the Thingvellir Valley，where the land is actually separating and the stony ground beneath your feet frequently shifts．Hold on while you hike!

Dear Sir/Madam，
I'm so excited to hear that China Daily is in need of some volunteers to introduce Chinese culture overseas．
Firstly，I think that it's my responsibility to promote Chinese culture．In addition，I'm outgoing and open-minded．Lastly，I have been to numerous famous scenic spots and my hometown is a famous historical and cultural city，where I often act as a volunteer tour guide．
I firmly believe that I'm the very person you're looking for．I would appreciate it if you could take my application into consideration．
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua
