Jiangwan Airport was once one of the largest airports in Asia. After it closed in 1994, the area turned into a natural wetland. As time passed, parts of the wetland were preserved. Many birds and other wild animals now live there. Let's take a look at some of these birds.

White Wagtails
The bird is black and white. They like to gently shake their tails. That's how they got their name. They sometimes walk on the ground to look for insects. They also eat different kinds of seeds and water plants.

Then he took their gold away to help the poor. Robin became most famous for "robbing from the rich and giving to the poor."
The Sheriff of Nottingham was Robin's greatest enemy. He was cruel and treated the poor badly. It was his job to keep the woods safe and to make sure that nobody stole the king's deer.

Travelling along the old Silk Road can be a quite interesting experience. Here is some information that the visitor should consider when he plans a possible travel on the road.
While travelling along the road, the visitor can meet with about 20 different nationalities(ethnic groups) some of which, like the Uigur, Tibetan, and Mongolian speak their own language and have their own writing. Cultural exchange was considered very important during the development of the new unified national economy.
Some ethnic groups began learning Mandarin (the official Chinese language) and adopted the lifestyle of the Han people (the major ethnic group in China). Chinese became the official language in the autonomous regions. Today, Chinese can be easily used among these nationalities.
On the Silk Road, travellers will easily notice the Islamic influence on eating habits in northwest China. Visitors more interested in traditional Chinese food will have no problem in finding restaurants specializing in Sichuan, Cantonese and Beijing or Shanghai cuisine. In every city night markets and small restaurants are the best places to taste local snacks. Before you enter, remember to check the sanitary (环境卫生的) appearance of the restaurant. If you are puzzled with the food names on the menu, remember that the best way to order is by pointing to what other people are having. Remember that pork is forbidden in Islamic food.
The Beijing standard time, which is eight hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (London) and 13 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time(New York), is the standard time used in China.
The visitor must know though that in Xinjiang, locals often use the Xinjiang time, which is two hours behind the standard Beijing time.
Title: 71. ______ for Travelling along Silk Road

The year 2026 is the Year of the 81.H______ in the Chinese calendar. Horses are liked by people all over the world. They led soldiers into battle (战斗), pulled ploughs (犁) and served as transportation before machine vehicles were invented.
In China, the horse carries many positive 82.m______, such as smart and energetic, and we can see them in Chinese sayings. For example, a talented 83.p______ is often called "qianlima", a horse that covers a thousand li a day. And someone who is good at 84.f______ talent is referred to as "bole", a person who could tell a good horse by its looks in ancient China. Other horse-related phrases in Chinese include "madaochenggong", which means instant success and "longmajingshen", which means full of 85.e______.
Horses are also said to have 86.p______ brains with "excellent memory", according to Discovery News. Maybe that's why a Chinese idiom goes: "An old horse knows the way."

As for your trip to China, I suggest you visit Beijing. You can go to the Forbidden City and the Great Wall. They are amazing! Also, try the local food like Peking duck. I'm sure you'll have a great time.
Looking forward to your reply!
Yours,
