35-year-old Xiao Shuyao is a Chinese sailor. In 2020, she finished sailing around the world with a sailboat.

Xiao’s story about sailing dates back to 2010, when she ran a beach bar in Sanya, Hainan Province. In 2014, Xiao closed her bar and took part in a yacht（帆船）race. She then had a dream of sailing around the world for the first time in her life.

Xiao experienced lots of difficulties and dangers during the voyage, such as seasickness, pirates(海盗) with guns and bad weather. But Xiao says the beauty of sailing lies just in what looked impossible at first.

At the same time, she also went on land tours along the way. She shared stories about her trips and adventures. She introduced China’s unique (独特的) sailing culture. She also invited sailors from different countries and local people to drink Chinese tea and enjoy Chinese food on her boat. Many of them learned about China through her stories.

You must have heard of the legend(传说) of Yu Gong, who tried to move two mountains. The Taihang Mountain was one of the two mountains.

The Taihang Mountain passes through the areas of Hebei, Shanxi, Henan and Beijing. It is about 400 kilometers long. It is one of the largest mountain ranges in North China, and it was called “the backbone(脊梁) of China” in ancient times.

Many of the legends about the very beginning of human civilization(文明) come from the Taihang area. For example, Nvwa used stones to repair the sky to make sure that humans would have a better future; Houyi protected everyone by shooting the suns; Yandi, one of the earliest Chinese emperors, tried large numbers of herbs(草药) and taught people how to use them to treat diseases.

The Taihang Mountain is not only where the ancient stories happened, but also a place where tens of thousands of fossils(化石) were found. These fossils show how the earth has changed over time. At the same time, we can also learn about how ancient humans lived from the discoveries around the area.

Nowadays, there are natural forests around the area with beautiful colors in four seasons. It is home to many animals and plants as well.

If you need a trip that helps you learn different things about history, culture and other important knowledge, the Taihang Mountain is a great choice for you.

C．The backbone of China. D．The backbone of the world.

71．How many legends are mentioned in the passage?

One sunny afternoon, a young deer (鹿) and an old deer were lying under a tree in the forest. Suddenly, in the distance, they heard some sounds of dogs’ barking.

The old deer stood up quickly. He felt nervous and scared. He said to the young deer, “Be quick! It’s time to find a place to hide in. The barking dogs are fierce (凶猛的) and they will kill us.” The young deer laughed and said, “Why should we hide from the dogs? We are bigger and stronger than them. We can toss (扔) them aside with our big antlers (角). We should fight against them bravely.”

The old deer admired the courage of the young deer, but he did not believe the young deer. “We’d better run away now,” said the old deer. The young deer refused to run away. He decided to fight against the dogs. As the dogs ran to him, he put down his antlers and wanted to toss them aside. But he didn’t win the fight because there were too many dogs. He was killed by the dogs in the end.
