The Forbidden City is in the heart of Beijing, China. It was built under the orders of the Yongle Emperor of the Ming Dynasty between 1406 and 1420. More than one million people worked on the building of the palace. The best materials were brought in from all over China, including made “golden” bricks. When the palace was completed, the Yongle Emperor moved the capital of the empire to Beijing.

The Forbidden City is enormous. It covers an area of 725,000 square metres. There are 90 different palaces with courtyards. The Forbidden City was also worked as a fortress (堡垒) to protect the emperor and his family. It is surrounded by a 10-metre-high wall and a 52-metre-wide river. Each corner of the palace has a tall guard tower where guards used to keep watch for enemies.

The main buildings of the Forbidden City were all built in a straight line from north to south. The southern part of the palace is called the outer court. It was here that the emperor held official ceremonies (典礼). To the north is the inner court, where the emperor and his family lived. Each side of the palace has a gate. The main gate is the south-facing Meridian Gate (午门).

The Forbidden City was designed using ancient Chinese symbolism. For example, the roof of the library was black. Black stood for water. The roof was painted this colour in hopes that it would protect the books from fire.

When night comes, they stop under a big tree. The Tin Woodman cuts some wood and makes a fire for Dorothy. Dorothy and Toto eat some bread and the Lion goes into the forest to find something for his dinner. The Scarecrow collects some nuts for Dorothy’s breakfast. Then all of them lie down and sleep until morning.

The next day they set off again very early. They walk a few miles and then come to a big ditch. It’s very wide and very deep. There are a lot of sharp rocks at the bottom of it.

“How can we cross the ditch?” Dorothy asks her friends.

“We can’t fly over it,” the Scarecrow says. “And we can’t jump over it. So we must stay here.”

The Lion looks at the ditch and says, “I can jump over it.”

“Can you?” the Scarecrow says. “That’s good. You can take us across on your back, one by one.”

“Who wants to go first?” the Lion says.

“Me!” the Scarecrow says and he gets on the Lion’s back. The Lion jumps across the ditch easily. Then he jumps back and takes Dorothy and Toto. Finally he takes the Tin Woodman across the ditch.

Later in the afternoon, they come to a wide river.

“How can we cross the river?” Dorothy asks.

“Easy!” the Scarecrow replies. “The Tin Woodman can cut down some trees and build a raft. We can cross the river on that.”

“That’s a good idea,” the Lion says to the Scarecrow, “One would believe you had brains in your head, instead of straw!”

But it takes time to make a raft, and it’s very late when the Tin Woodman finishes it. So they find a cozy place under the trees where they sleep well until the morning. That night, Dorothy dreams of flying to the Emerald City and finding the good Wizard Oz, who would soon send her back to Kansas.

五、阅读回答问题

Tea, coffee and cocoa are three major drinks all over the world. Tea is drunk by the largest number of people in the world. Tea, as well as silk and porcelain, began to be known by the world over a thousand years ago and has been an important Chinese export since then.

Tea has a history of over 4,000 years and China is the home of tea. In ancient China, tea was used as a kind of medicine, while nowadays people drink tea daily.

Longjing, Pu’er, Wulong and Tieguanyin are all famous tea. Thanks to the climate and soil in Fujian, Zhejiang and Yunnan, tea is produced mainly in these provinces.

The word for tea in different languages came from Chinese, like ‘cha’i’ in Russian. And the Japanese character for tea is written exactly the same as it is in Chinese.

Now, tea culture is a part of Chinese culture, which includes tea planting, tea leaf picking, tea making, tea drinking and so on. Tea is also popular in some sayings, like “A friendship between gentlemen is like a cup of tea.” In dances, songs, poems and novels, tea is often mentioned, too.

A Special Gift

People often give gifts to show their family affection, friendship and love. I have received many gifts and the most special one is a hand-made calendar.

It was made by my best friend Andy on my 14th birthday. On each page of the calendar, there is a picture of Andy and me with some encouraging words he wrote.

The gift is special to me because it is a memory of the wonderful time we spent together. Besides, the words on it encourage me to keep trying whenever I want to give up in the face of difficulties. Thanks to his gift, I have become more confident, and solved many problems by myself. What’s more, I have learned the importance of friendship.

Whenever I look at the calendar, I am touched by something warm, and my heart is filled with love. I will keep this special gift forever.
