The Best Hotels in Edinburgh Close to the Must-See Sights
Edinburgh is home to some of the best hotels in Scotland. Here are some selected hotels, ranging from iconic
five-star institutions to new apartment hotels.
The Balmoral Hotel
For luxury accommodation, the Balmoral hotel offers five-star service and fantastic views of Edinburgh
Castle. It is in the city center and features the iconic clock tower. The Balmoral is probably the most famous hotel
in the city and is famous for its hospitality. It is also popular with locals for afternoon tea.

apartments that have fully equipped small kitchens, free WiFi, and car parking nearby. The apartments are ideal for

breakfast or lunch.

The Radisson Collection Hotel overlooks the iconic Royal Mile. It’s just a short walk from attractions such as
Edinburgh Castle and Holy rood Park, and it’s within easy reach of local restaurants, shops, bars, and galleries.
Everything you will want to see and do in Edinburgh is close to hand, and it’s five minutes from Waverly Train

nine floors of rooms and suites with commanding views over the city. Located at the top end of North Bridge, the
hotel occupies the prime real estate spot ( 黄 金 地 段 ) in Edinburgh. Easy access to Waverley Train Station and

I went to Yuanhe Middle School in Xihaigu, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, a place that used to be one of
the poorest regions in China, to participate in an English class with village children.
Most kids in the school come from poor village homes and are “left behind” children — kids whose parents
work in the cities to make a better living. After class, we chatted a lot, and they wondered about everything, using
“outside world” as a term to describe the wider globe for many times.
Taking care of rural children is essential. The school offers boarding services and free breakfast and lunch to
the students, who can also video chat with their parents daily. To better care for the village children, the school
provides outdoor hiking, technology, art, and foreign language programs to help them understand the outside world.
After all, high-quality education to disadvantaged village children is the key to poverty-alleviation (扶贫) efforts.
During my trip in Xihaigu, I also visited Ningxia Normal University, where over 70% of its students major in
education.
In 2013, local and central governments launched public-funded programs to recruit students interested in
becoming teachers in Ningxia’s rural villages and districts. By 2023, 3,500 students were enrolled in the program,
many of whom came from disadvantaged village households in Xihaigu.
I had the opportunity to speak with Yang, a public-funded student from the once-poor Xihaigu region. After
finishing school, he planned to stay in the Xihaigu area as a teacher to teach the kids knowledge.
Yang told me that knowledge is the key to leading a better life as well as understanding the world. A lack of
knowledge is one of the main factors of being poor. Money could help the poor for a while but not once for all. He
hopes that by sharing knowledge with the kids in his hometown, he can help them broaden their horizons and
develop an objective perspective on the world. He envisions a future where these children can use their knowledge
to make a better life, stop people’s stereotypes (固有印象) about China and share Xihaigu’s stories with the rest of
the world.
4. Why did the kids repeatedly mention “outside world”?
A
.
Out of curiosity about the unknown world.
B. With the hope of changing the world outside.
C. To show their experiences about the wider globe.
D. For lack of confidence towards their inner world.
5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The key to poverty-alleviation efforts.
B. The aid to the kids on life and education.
C. The teaching conditions of the school.
D. The high-quality education of the school.
6. What can we infer from the author’s trip in Ningxia Normal University?
A. Students in this university can be free of charge.
B. The authorities support Ningxia’s rural areas by stressing education.
C. The public-funded programs target at the students from poor regions.
D. Money is less important than knowledge for the people in Xihaigu’s villages.
7. Which of the following may agree with Yang’s opinion?
A. Learn and live. B. Sharp tools make good work.
C. Hang on to your dreams. D. Poverty-alleviation starts with education.
C
As archaeologists( 考 古 学 家 ) examined ancient tombs in Turfan in western China, they discovered some
surprisingly well-preserved and familiar relics. Though hardened from over 1,000 years, there sat little dumplings.
Exactly who invented dumplings remains a mystery. But some scholars suspect they were first spread by
nomadic(游牧的) Turkic peoples living in western China and Central Asia. This is thought to be the case because
“manti,” meaning “dumpling” or “steamed bun” in many Turkic languages, appears to be the root word for
dumpling in several other languages. Ancient Turkic people probably filled their dumplings with meat. But it’s
unclear when this practice began, or whether they learned the art of dumpling-making from others. However this
