When it comes to cultural heritage protection, the Grand Canal of China is probably the world’s greatest project of its kind. The big inland waterway system in the north-eastern and central eastern plains passes through eight of the country’s present-day provinces.

The Canal runs from Beijing in the north to Zhejiang Province in the south. Constructed in sections from the 5th century BC onwards, it was designed as a means of communication in the 7th century AD. The Canal is the world’s greatest civil engineering project before the Industrial Revolution.

The Grand Canal reached a peak in the 13th century, providing an inland navigation(航行) network consisting of more than 2,000 kilometers of artificial waterways, linking five of the most important river basins in China, including the Yellow River and the Yangtze. It entered a bid as a UNESCO(联合国教科文组织) cultural heritage site in 2008.

The Grand Canal cultural square is located in Beijing’s Tongzhou district. Ever since the Yuan dynasty 800 years ago, the Tongzhou section of the Grand Canal has been the life blood of Beijing. Grain and building materials were all transported to meet the endless demands of the big cities. Even today, the Grand Canal plays a major role in the lives of its citizens.

"I grew up near the Grand Canal. In the past the waterway was a lot narrower, but now it’s nice and wide and bridges are built over it. I think if the bid for world heritage status succeeds, it will greatly make Tongzhou more famous in the world, especially with Tongzhou aiming to be a sub-center of the capital Beijing," a citizen said.

The result of the bid is set to be released next week, and no doubt it will certainly make it into the history books if the Canal is listed as a world heritage site.

1.It can be concluded from the passage that .

A. The bid’s result of the Canal will be announced soon

B. the Canal is the UNESCO’s newest world heritage site

C. the Canal is to connect Tongzhou with Zhejiang Province

D. the Canal will be a bid for a UNESCO cultural heritage site

2.The Grand Canal was in the most glorious time .

A. when it was aimed as a means of communication

B. when it crossed the Yellow River and the Yangtze

C. when it was born about six hundred years later

D. when it was designed as an artificial waterway

3.What can we infer by reading the passage?

A. Tongzhou used to be the capital of the Yuan dynasty.

B. Most citizens living in Tongzhou depend on the Canal.

C. Tongzhou will benefit if the Canal is made a heritage site.

D. Some citizens think the Canal not to be a cultural heritage item.

Two new studies suggest that modern running shoes could increase the risk of injuries to runners.

One study involved sixty-eight healthy young women and men who ran at least twenty-four kilometers a week.The runners were observed on a treadmill machine(跑步机).Sometimes they wore running shoes.Other times they ran barefoot.

Researchers found that running shoes create more stress that could damage knees,hips and ankle joints than running barefoot.They observed that the effect was even greater than the effect reported earlier for walking in high heels.

The other study compared runners in the United States and Kenya.The researchers divided the runners into three groups.One group had always run shoeless.Another group had always run with shoes.And the third group had changed to shoeless running.

Runners who wear shoes usually come down heel first.That puts great force on the back of the foot.But the study found that barefoot runners generally land on the front or middle of their foot.That way they ease into their landing and avoid striking their heels.

Daniel Lieberman says the way most running shoes are designed may explain why those who wear them land on their heels.The heel of the shoe is bigger and heavier than other parts of the shoe,so it would seem more likely to come down first.Also,the heel generally has thick material under it to soften landings.

But the researchers do not suggest that runners immediately start running barefoot.They say it takes some training.And there can be risks,like running when your feet are too cold to feel if you get injured.

1.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Running in shoes is partly good to runners.

B. Two new discoveries encourage people to run in high heels.

C. Walking in high heels could cause less serious effects than running barefoot.

D. Two new studies prove running without shoes is beneficial to runners in most cases.

2. From the fifth paragraph we can infer that__________.

A. running barefoot is faster than running in shoes.

B. the landing point is very important in running.

C. running shoeless can give people a real exercise.

D. different running ways cause different injuries.

3.Why do people who run in shoes land on their heels?

A. Because the shoes put great force on the back of the foot.

B. Because the design of running shoes is unreasonable.

C. Because people who often run get used to landing on their heels.

D. Because the running people want to run faster.

4.What’s the writer’s attitude towards the use of the modern running shoes?

A. Positive. B. Persuasive.

C. Objective. D. Supportive.
