Explore Scenic Train Journeys
The four most scenic train journeys provide not only beautiful scenery at destination cities, but also
charming views outside the trains’ windows on the way.
Route 1: Xining to Lhasa
Length: around 1,900 km
Duration: 22 hours
This train route is the longest high altitude train trip in the world—named as the way to the sky. Most of
this route is over 4,000 meters and it goes above 5,000 meters several times. After the train has left Xining
Railway Station for about an hour, you can see the boundless lake—Qinghai Lake.
Route 2: Lhasa to Rikaze
Length: around 250 km
Duration: 2.5 hours
This railway has an average high altitude of above 3,600 meters. It makes Tibet travel more convenient
for travelers, especially those who want to see Mount Qomolangma. Along the railway line, you can see local
farmers and yaks (). And most of the time, you can appreciate a plateau () landscape of mountains
and meadows.
Route 3: Chengdu to Kunming
Length: around 1,100 km
Duration: 6 hours (high-speed train)
From Chengdu’s plains area, with an altitude of about 400 meters, the train goes up to altitudes of about
2,000 meters, traveling through tunnels and across mountains. The complex geography along the railway line
gives this route the name of Geological Museum.
Route 4: Beijing to Shanghai
Length: around 1,300 km
Duration: 5.5 hours
Beijing and Shanghai are two of the most popular cities for foreign travelers who come to China for the
first time. It is a trip that combines some of China’s main urban landscapes with cultivated countryside scenery
and mountains in between. The new and modern facilities on the train ensure you have a comfortable journey.
21. Which route takes the least time?
A. Lhasa to Rikaze. B. Chengdu to Kunming.
C. Xining to Lhasa. D. Beijing to Shanghai.
22. What makes Route 3 special?
A. Its convenience for travelers. B. Its wide popularity among foreigners.
C. Its complicated geography along the route. D. Its new and modern facilities on the train.
23. What do the four routes have in common?
A. Travelers can experience high altitude train trips.
B. Travelers can witness a plateau view and some yaks.
C. Travelers can appreciate the scenery of Qinghai Lake.
D. Travelers can admire beautiful views from the train windows.
B
Across the gardens of Britain, people are building sheds (工棚). People have gone crazy about sheds. The
Timber Trade Federation reports that in October, the last month for which statistics were available, imports of
softwood were 34% higher than a year earlier. With stocks ( 库 存 ) running low, what wood is available is
quickly sold out.
A garden shed used to be mostly a place to store tools, or a place to discuss how to grow flowers and
enjoy tea and snacks while the rain falls outside, according to Michael Rand, an expert gardener. But the
creative brain-worker has long put it to more productive use. Roald Dahl and Dylan Thomas wrote in sheds.
George Bernard Shaw had one in his Hertfordshire garden that faced the sun.
Besides growing flowers, the sheds now being built are also often intended for work. However, they are
grander than the ones those pioneer shed-writers used. Green Retreats, which mostly builds garden offices,
says that overall sales on building sheds grew by 113% between 2019 and 2020. Larger and fancier structures
are especially popular.
This has an important impact on cities. Urban scholars like Richard Florida and Edward Glaeser are busy
trying to work out whether the rise in home-working that has occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic will
continue when the virus declines. If it does, many service jobs in cities, from waiters to taxi drivers, will
disappear. Public transport systems will struggle. The value of city-centre housing will drop. The shed boom
makes that outcome more likely.
A white-collar worker who has tried to work from the kitchen table for the past nine months might be
keen to return to the office. A worker who has a beautiful garden shed with Wi-Fi will not hope so. Joel Bird,
who builds personalized sheds, is certain that his customers expect a long-term change in their working habits.
“They don’t consider home-working to be temporary,” he says. “They’re spending too much money on sheds.”
24. Why did Britain buy more softwood from other countries?
A. Softwood was cheaper this year.
B. Demands for sheds were on the rise.
C. Softwood suppliers were fewer than before.
D. Britons stored softwood like crazy due to COVID-19.
25. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. Previous shed-writers. B. Various functions of sheds.
C. Improvements on shed-building. D. The development of shed-offices.
26. What can we infer from the text?
A. The shed boom might threaten economy in cities.
B. Workers are eager to return to work in their offices.
C. More people prefer gardening in their beautiful sheds.
D. People’s working habits remain the same after COVID-19.
