27、During the five-day Labor Day holiday that began on April 30, tourist attractions that offered ancient Chinese, or guofeng, experiences attracted large crowds, some members of whom wore traditional clothing and makeup to enhance the authenticity of their experiences.

Qujiang New District in Xi’an, Shaanxi province, charmed tourists with a new attraction themed on TV serial The Longest Day in Chang’an. It offers visitors a chance to “travel back in time” and experience a day in the life of people living in the Tang Dynasty(618-907). Xi’an, known as Chang’an back then, was the imperial(皇帝的)capital.

The World Rural Tourist Town in Huzhou, Zhejiang province, staged a cultural festival with a silk and Song Dynasty(960-1279)theme. During the first three days of the holiday, the place received nearly 30,000 visits, putting it into a Tik-Tok list of the 10 most sought—after Huzhou attractions.

The Jizhou Kiln scenic area in Jiangxi province held a tourism festival with a Song Dynasty theme. Tourists, wearing period costumes and makeup, tried their hand at the ancient Chinese game of touhu—throwing arrows into wine pitchers—and sampled yonghe tofu, one of the top 10 Jiangxi dishes.

COVID-19 has accelerated changes in consumers, who are increasingly pursuing comfortable and safe tourism products that benefit both the environment and people’s health. For tourism businesses, it’s important to highlight the cultural elements of tourism products by drawing inspiration from China’s traditional culture.

To create a more impressive experience, staff members dressed in hanfu would join the crowd and interact with the tourists by, for example, handing them flower seeds, the staff member said, adding that services such as hanfu rental and traditional makeup design are available in the park.

Hotels are also tapping the guofeng craze to feed the growing passion for traditional Chinese culture. A guofeng hotel of Chinese firm Rezen provides replica costumes from online games based on the Chinese classic Journey to the West, which the guests can try on for photos.

【1】Why did Xi’an attract so many tourists?

A．For its beautiful scenery.

D．For its geographical location.

【2】What do Huzhou and Jizhou Kiln have in common?

A．They share the same theme.

B．They are listed top on Tik-Tok.

C．They feature local snacks.

D．They offer traditional costumes.

【3】What impresses tourists more according to Paragraph 6?

A．Tourism products.

B．Tang poems.

C．Traditional costumes.

D．Online games.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

29、Have you wondered why different animals or pests have their particular colours? Colours in them seem to  be used mainly to protect themselves.

Birds, especially seagulls（海鸥） are very fond of locusts（蝗虫）, but birds can’t easily catch locusts because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colour of crops（庄稼）. When crops are green, locusts look green. But when crops are ripe（成熟的）, locusts take on exactly the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies. So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.

If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you will find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves, bears, wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests. They are usually invisible to the eyes of hunters, because they have the colour much like the barks(树皮) of trees.

An even more strange act remains to be noticed. A kind of fish living in seas can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid is over, its enemies cannot find it, and it quickly swims away. Thus,it has existed（存活）up to now though it is not powerful at all.

【1】This passage mainly talks about ______.

A. the change of colour in locusts

B. the protective colouration of animals and pests

C. how a certain sea fish protects itself

D. animals or pests can dye themselves different colours

【2】The pests that have different colours from plants usually appear at night because ______.

A. their enemies can easily find them and eat them

B. they have the habit of coming out in darkness

C. it’s easy for them to destroy plants in darkness

D. birds take their rests when night comes

【3】What does the word “invisible” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Can’t be seen   B. Can be seen

C. Can’t move     D. Can’t change

30、For most people, the longest relationship they will have is with their sibling（兄弟姐妹）. It’s a shame, then, that we can’t choose them. As children, my younger sister and I were always _________with each other. I was jealous of her looks and she felt threatened by my academic success. But our rivalry（竞争）was _________compared to that of some famous siblings.

Take 1940s movie stars Olivia de Havilland and Joan Fontaine. The competitive relationship between these sisters is the stuff of Hollywood legend. “I married first, won the Oscar before Olivia did. And if I die first, she will ___________be angry because I beat her to it,” Joan wrote in her autobiography. Their rivalry became very _________in 1946 when Olivia won an Oscar. Joan was asked to present the award but Olivia refused to even shake her hand. “They just don’t have much in common,”, commented on person at the time.

But it’s not just in _________business where siblings fall out. Entrepreneurs Rudolf and Adolf Dassler started making sports shoes in the small German town of Herzogenaurach in the 1920s. Their factory south of the river became very successful but they were always very _________. Adolf, or Adi, was a quiet craftsman while Rudolf was “a loud-mouthed salesman”. _______in 1948, the brothers fell out permanently. Rudolf moved across the river and set up a rival sports-shoe company, which he called Puma. _________, Adi used the first letters of his name and surname to create his brand—Adidas.

The brothers never spoke to each other again and their rivalry _______the town. The residents wore either Adidas or Puma and would sometimes refuse to __________each other. It became a place where you always looked at the ____________someone was wearing before starting a conversation. The brothers died in the 1970s and were buried in the same cemetery—at opposite ends.

But not all successful siblings ________each other. Top tennis players Serena and Venus Williams have played each other in over 20 major tennis tournament finals, but have always remained the best friends. They played doubles together, lived together, and even had breakfast before these big matches.’ We leave everything on the ________.’ Serena once said. ‘We’re sisters the moment we shake hands at the net.’

So, now that we are adults, have my sister and i learnt to be more like the William sisters and less like the Gallaghers? Well, I’d love to say “Yes” but the __________answer is “not always”. I still hate seeing photos of us together because I still feel inferior to her. But our rivalry is not as bad as it used to be, and if I feel really jealous, I remind myself: __________fades but a sister is for life!
