Chile
This long, skinny slice of South America successfully packs a powerful punch, with strange charms in Valparaiso, excellent wine in the Maipo Valley and diverse landscapes across the Arcadian Desert, Chilean Patagonia and Easter Island.

The country’s coastline is its best feature, and its winding coastal roads and mountain-meets-ocean scenery create the perfect background for a road trip. Sleepy seaside towns along the Bay of Kotor are home to mom-and-pop restaurants and elegant hotels, while the walled city of Koror offers views of the classic red rooftops of the Adriatic.
Madagascar
Madagascar，the world’s fourth-largest island one of the most biodiverse (生物多样的) places on the planet, has been rapidly affected by climate change.
Visiting the country can serve as an educational opportunity for travelers who want to understand the bad effects of global warming and irresponsible human actions, Some can’t-miss experiences in Madagascar include swimming and snorkeling around Nosy Be, spotting lemurs (狐猴) in Ranomafana National Park, admiring the rocky landscapes of Isalo National Park and a sunset walk along the Avenue of the Baobabs.

24．（8分）Imagine walking through an ancient city, then climbing a gate tower to take in a wonderful view of the city and its more than 600-year-old walls. You can hear the city’s heartbeat in the air. This is the Ancient City of Pingyao in Shanxi Province, a place that should definitely be on your travel route if you enjoy history or ancient architecture since its origins can be traced back to more than 2,700 years ago.
Located in the center of Shanxi Province, Pingyao is the hometown of Jin merchants, a group of merchants who actively dominated (支配) a booming commodity market throughout China for more than 500 years, especially during the Ming and Qing dynasties. After the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, the city’s agriculture and manufacturing industries developed rapidly. Following China’s reform and opening-up in the 1980s, Pingyao struggled with the transition from a managed economy to the current market-oriented economy. During this time, the city government sought out new ways to break through this economic bottleneck.
Finally in the winter of 1997, opportunity came knocking. Through the efforts of the city government, Pingyao earned its place on the UNESCO World Heritage list, which caused the entire world to take notice of the city.
Since the city’s fame has risen, locals in Pingyao have deepened their understanding of the conservation efforts preserving the historical relics in their hometown. Meanwhile the city administration has continued to upgrade itself through a strategy that follows the pillars of “conservation, entrepreneurship, development and protection.”
Currently, the city is focused on establishing a sustainable industry that will enable it to continue to grow while also protecting its relics and introducing them to the world.
1、What does the underlined word “transition” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．Translation. B．Spread. C．Range. D．Change.
2、What contributed to Pingyao’s popularity around the world?
A．The city government’s hard work. B．The official recognition by the UNESCO.
C．The development of Pingyao’s economy. D．The ancient architecture in the city.
3、What measure is taken to further develop the city?
A．Combining economy with cultural protection.
B．Constructing more modern buildings.
C．Learning from other cities in the world.
D．Establishing manufacturing industries.
4、How is the text developed?
A．By giving examples. B．By following time order.
C．By listing reasons. D．By raising questions.
