Last summer I went to one of the world’s most famous historical places, the Forbidden City in Beijing, China. It was the home of the emperors(皇帝) of the last two dynasties in China, the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
The Forbidden City was built in 1420. The palace has over 10,000 rooms. It was where the emperors dealt with the official business with their ministers.
In Mandarin(普通话), the Forbidden City is called the Purple Forbidden City. However, the colour of the palace itself is not purple. The colour purple means the great emperors of China have powerful right. It was so sacred(神圣的) that the commoners could not even dream of ever going in.
The emperor also had some of the largest festival celebrations at the Forbidden City. During Chinese New Year, the emperor would invite all the members of his family and his officials to a banquet. The banquet had a hundred and eight Chinese dishes. It was such an expensive banquet that it could feed a commoner’s family for three generations(代).
Right now the Forbidden City is known as a historical site for tourists from all over the world. Everyone can go in there. It is a museum with priceless Chinese antiques(古董) and treasures in it. I really learned a lot about the Chinese culture and its history from this trip to the Forbidden City. It was like a dream come true to go on the trip and see the things that I had always wanted to see.
4. How long is the history of the Forbidden City
A. About 500 years. B. More than 600 years.
C. 1,420 years. D. Over 10,000 years.
5. We call the palace the Purple Forbidden City because colour purple stood for ______ of the emperor.
A. power B. honesty C. wealth D. health
6. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “banquet” in Paragraph 4
A. performance B. competition C. exhibition D. feast
7. Which of the following is NOT true about the Forbidden City in the passage
A. The emperor lived there.
B. The wall of the City was purple.
C. It is a historical place for visiting.
D. The emperor had festival celebrations there.
C

“And big black tears were running out of his eyes and down his skull,” Ben added.
“And the skull was... Hey!” Sarah shouted. “How do you know that How do you know what happened in my dream ”
“Because I had the same dream,” said Ben. “Then the man said, ‘I am the Lord of Tears, and soon I will be the master of the world. Soon there will be no more laughter and no more smiles. Soon there will only be tears.’ And then I woke up.”
“I woke up when he said that, too,” said Sarah.
“But I also had another dream,” said Ben.
“And in that dream I heard a lovely voice. And it said, ‘Go and find the Lord of Tears. And take away the Mirror of Smiles.’”
“I had that dream, too,” Sarah shouted.
“‘Follow the setting sun. Bring back laughter and fun!’”
