When Columbus “sailed the ocean blue in 1492”, he wasn’t looking for America, he was searching for a route from Spain to China; America just got in the way.

装 号The Spanish were after the riches of Asia: silk, dates, spices. Until later 证考adventures discovered how to sail to the Far East, trade with China depended on the 准 只 Silk Road. The trade between China and Europe brought huge wealth, so the Spanish had a strong desire to find a new way to the East. Eventually a way appeared; as sea traffic developed from the 17th Century onwards, the overland route diminished.

卷 Now China is seeking to revive(复兴) the Silk Road and is preparing to invest 4 名姓trillion pounds in new road, rail links, oil pipelines and other basic facilities. It is hoped that goods can be shipped westwards by land far more quickly and economically 此 than by sea.

But the plan is also to attract more tourists. Actually, China does pretty well for 级tourists already; it’s the world’s fourth most visited country. Two cities—Beijing and 班Shanghai—possess the tourism business, with significant interest in destinations such

as Xi’an and Chengdu. While Beijing is modern, cities such as Lanzhou and Dunhuang have one foot planted firmly in old China.

Other places featured include Xi’an, the former capital of China, where you can come face to face with the Terracotta Army built to protect China’s first emperor in the afterlife. From Lanzhou tour members take the train to Jiayuguan, China’s western

gateway and a key location on the Silk Road.

There is also a four-day coach journey along the original Silk Route through the Xinjiang region to Kashgar. Along the way, at Kurla, you can visit the ruins of the Iron Fortress.

1. What does the underlined word “diminished” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Discovered. B. Disappeared. C. Disturbed.

D. Displayed.

2. What is the purpose of reviving the Silk Road? A. To rebuild the ruins of the Iron Fortress. B. To construct new roads and other basic structures. C. To make transportation westwards faster and cheaper. D. To draw more inland tourists’ attention to the western gateway. 3. What can we learn about the Silk Road? A. It is nothing but a trade route.

B. It may destroy some cities’ ancient style. C. It attracts foreign investment of ￡4 trillion. D. It promotes the tourism industry of China. 4. What is the best title for the text? A. The Charming of the Silk Road B. The Function of the Silk Road C. The Origin of the Silk Road D. The Future of the Silk Road
