读一读以下这篇关于兵马俑的文章,然后回答文后的问题。

  In the spring of 1974, Chinese archaeologists(考古学家)made a great find in Xi'an, Shanxi Province, when they unearthed(挖掘;挖出)the pottery statues of imperial(帝国的;皇帝的)guards buried in the Tomb(坟墓)of the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty over 2,000 years ago.The pit consists of more than seven thousand pottery warriors, horses and wooden chariots(双轮战车)in life size.The arms they hold are altogether real, and some of the swords are still very sharp.The news of the findings spread far and wide.In the past years it attracted tens of thousands of visitors including foreigners, overseas Chinese and compatriots(同胞)from all over the world to Xi'an, which boasts of having been the capital of several dynasties by the name of Chang'an since ancient times.

  The pottery army is well worth a visit.All the pottery warriors and horses are so vivid and lifelike that you could almost feel them breathing.Obviously the craftsmen in the Qin Dynasty were very skillful.Their skills had reached the highest level.Many foreign visitors admire and praise them as a wonder.The former French Premier spoke highly of them.“There have been seven wonders of the world:now the Pottery Army in Qin Tomb is to be added,”he said,“Not to see the pyramids is not to see Egypt at all, while not to see the Pottery Army is not to see China at all.”His words admirably(令人钦佩地)sum up the impressions of all who have seen this wonder of China and of all the world.

九寨沟历来享有“童话世界”的美誉,来读一读这篇介绍九寨沟的文章吧!

  Jiuzhaigou is an incredible(不可思议的)place in the northern part of Sichuan Province in China.It was only discovered in the 1970s and is now a protected area.Tibetan people have lived in the valley for many years and signs of Tibetan culture can be seen throughout the valley.However, many of these people have now been moved to houses so that the land can be looked after properly.

  The valley is surrounded by mountains and is full of waterfalls and lakes.Many of the lakes are so colorful that they look man-made.The lakes are the bluest blue you will ever see and some are up to 50 meters deep but they are so clear that you can see the bottom.The valley has become a popular tourist attraction for both Chinese and foreign tourists.To save Jiuzhaigou from thousands of people that go there every year, there are buses inside the valley that take the visitors to the main attractions.There is also a rather expensive entrance ticket to try and keep the number of tourists down.

  For the fit and healthy tourists, there are walking paths so that they can be really close to nature.The valley is over 60 kilometers long, so the walk may be tiring.Many tourists prefer to take the bus.

“猫王”的一生究竟是怎么样的?来读一读这篇文章就知道了。

  Elvis Presley came form a very poor family.He was born on January 8th, 1935, in Tupelo, Mississippi.

  Elvis loved music.He went to church every Sunday and sang in the choir(唱诗班).When he was 13, his mother bought him a guitar.In the same year, Elvis and his family left Mississippi.They moved to Memphis, Tennessee.

  One day in 1954 he went to the recording studio called Sun Records.He wanted to make a record for his mother's birthday.At the studio, he was found by Sam Phillips, the boss there.

  Elvis was Sam Phillips's dream-“a white boy with a black voice”.Phillips became Elvis's manager, and Elvis made his first single, That's all Right, Mama.When disc jockeys played it on the radio stations, American teenagers went wild(发狂).

  In 1955, Elvis appeared on TV in New York.The following year he went to Hollywood, California and made his first film, Love Me Tender.In the next two years he had many hit records-Blue Suede Shoes, Heartbreak Hotel, All Shook Up, Jailhouse Rock, and Teddy Bear

  In 1958, Elvis joined the army and went to Germany.When he returned to the United States in the early 1960s, popular music was not the same.British groups like the Beatles and the Rolling Stones were the new stars.

  Elvis was very rich, but he was a very lonely man.In his last years he became fat and frustrated.He died of a heart attack on August 16th, 1977 at his large house, in Memphis.

  But for his fans, Elvis is still the king of Rock and Roll.
