8、s.BThe 8th International Childrens Winter Games.CThe city of Lake Placid.DCultural exchange and entertainment programs.BI had only swum in open water a few times, and always in gentle lakes, so I wasnt prepared for how rough Lake Windermere appeared on a cold day. A swimmer told me the water felt co

9、lder than it had been measured, and that the water was a bit rough. But I, along with 10,000 others, was about to complete the challenge.Most of the people taking part were doing a one-mile race, and 10 races were planned over the weekend. There seemed to be a mix of open-water enthusiasts alongside

10、 complete beginnerswhich is precisely the aim of the swims, to get as many people as possible completing their own challenge. The oldest woman competing was 77, taking part in the two-mile race, alongside a man who last year had swum in every one-mile race.I had chosen the third one-mile race of the

11、 day. There were over 600 people in my race. We were taken through an acclimatization area, a childrens paddling pool-sized part of the lake where we moved in to feel how cold the water was. “Not too bad” was everyones thought! Then we headed out towards the middle of the lake.Wed been warned that t

12、he first 100 metres would be really rough. However, somewhere near the 750m mark I was still waiting for the calm; it felt more like swimming in the sea than a lake. I tried to focus on my breathing and technique, and just keep going. As I approached the 400m-to-go mark my lower right leg became pai

13、nful. I recalled overhearing people talking about how they kept swimming through the pain, so I tried. But it didnt work. I began to feel the entire leg tight and painful. I didnt want to stop, so I bent my right knee and just kicked with the left leg.Finally I saw the finishing post, and I just con

14、centrated on getting therestill one-legged. My finishing time was 38 minutes 25 seconds but that didnt matterthe atmosphere was fantastic and everyone felt a sense of achievement, whatever their time. Im hooked, and want to give it another go.

18、ng 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 citys heartbeat in the air. This is Pingyao Ancient City in Shanxi Province, a place that should definitely be on your travel route if you enjoy histo

19、ry 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, espec

20、ially during the Ming and Qing dynasties. After the founding of the Peoples Republic of China in 1949, the citys agriculture and manufacturing industries developed rapidly. Following Chinas reform and opening up, Pingyao struggled for the transition from a managed economy to the current market-orien

21、ted 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 w

22、orld to take notice of the city.Since the citys fame rose, 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

23、 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.28What does the underlined word transition in Paragraph 2 pr

24、obably mean?AExploration. BSpread.CApplication. DChange.29What contributed to Pingyaos popularity around the world?AThe city governments hard work.BThe official recognition by the UNESCO.CThe development of Pingyaos economy.DThe ancient architecture in the city.30What measure is taken to further dev

26、“What is civilization?” asked Kenneth Clark 50 years ago in the influential BBC series on the subject. “I dont know, and I cant define it in abstract terms, yet. But I think I can recognize it when I see it, and Im looking at it now.” And he turned to gesture behind him, at the soaring Gothic towers

27、 and flying buttresses of Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院).It seems inhuman to care more about a building than about people. That the sight of Notre Dame going up in flames has attracted so much more attention than floods in southern Africa which killed over 1,000 arouses understandable feelings of guilt. Yet the

28、 widespread, intense grief at the sight of the cathedrals collapsing steeple (尖塔) is in fact profoundly humanand in a particularly 21st-century way.It is not just the economy that is global today, it is culture too. People wander the world in search not just of jobs and security but also of beauty a

29、nd history. Familiarity breeds affection. A building on whose sunny steps you have rested, in front of which you have taken a selfie with your loved one, becomes a warm part of your memories and thus of yourself.This visual age has given beauty new power, and social media have turned great works of

30、art into superstars. Only a few, though, have achieved this status. Just as there is only ever a handful of world-famous actors, so the pantheon (万神殿) of globally recognizable cultural symbols is tiny: the Mona Lisa, Michelangelos David, the Taj Mahal, the Great Pyramid and Notre Dame. Disaster, too

31、, is visual. In the 24 hours after the fire started, videos on social media of the burning cathedral were viewed nearly a quarter of a billion times.Yet the emotions the sight aroused were less about the building itself than about what losing it might mean. Notre Dame is an expression of humanity at

32、 its collective best. Nobody could look up into that arched (拱形的) ceiling without wondering at the collective genius of the thousands of unknown craftsmen who, over a century and a half, realized a vision so grand in its structural ambition and so delicate in its hand-made detail. Its survival through 850 years of political unrestthrough war, revolution and Nazi occupationbinds the present to the past.32The BBC
