3.The new high-speed railway line between Urumqi,capital of the Xinjiang Uygur self-governing region,and Lanzhou,capital of Gansu province,has cut train travel time by half to less than 12hours.
The dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for Spring Festival.
"For the first time,I feel home is not that far away after all,"said Liang Shaofu as he boarded a high-speed train in Urumqi with six members of his family.
The 35-year-old left Lanzhou to set up a dry fruit business in Xinjiang eight years ago,and he has now settled in Urumqi.
The 1,776-km line,which passes through Qinghai province and is the country's first high-speed railway to be built in a high-altitude region,came into service on Dec 26.
"We normally drive home for Spring Festival to avoid the difficulties of buying seven train tickets for the whole family during the peak season,"Liang said."Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes,so one year we even decided not to go back to Lanzhou simply to avoid the trip.
More than 600,000passengers traveled on the line during its first month,and the Urumqi Railway Bureau said the introduction of high-speed services will ease transport pressure during the Spring Festival peak season.
The existing usual railway line could no longer support Xinjiang's development.All passenger trains will gradually shift to the new link,leaving the old one to be used for goods.As a result,Xinjiang's annual goods ability could reach 200million metric tons from the current 70million.
The line passes through areas that experience high winds,and it also crosses parts of the deserted Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the bone-dry sands of the Gobi Desert.
The project could help China to promote its high-speed railway technology abroad,said Ma Xizhang,director of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang railway project's management department in Xinjiang.

24.How long did it take to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou by the usual train before?D
A.about 12hours.  B.About 6hours.  C.About 18hours.  D.About 24hours.
25.What's the main advantage of the new high-speed railway?D
A.It takes more time to go to Urumqi to Lanzhou.
B.It will be more convenient for people all over the country to Xinjiang.
C.All the people in Lanzhou can return home on festivals.
D.It helps to improve Xinjiang's development.
26.From the passage we can learnB.
A.Xinjiang's annual goods ability can increase nearly four times
B.the new railway technology may help more railway lines to be built abroad
C.the high-speed railway lines can't be built across the bone-dry sands
D.the old railway lines can only carry goods now
27.Which of the following is true according to the passage?C
A.The new high-speed railway line is good for all people to go home.
B.The new high-speed railway line benefits businessmen to carry goods.
C.Taking the new train is safer than driving home from Urumqi to Lanzhou.
D.Businessmen seldom went home for Spring Festival before.
1.A report brought back by most visitors to the US is how friendly,polite,and helpful most Americans were to them.To be fair,this observation is also frequently made of Canada and Canadians,and should best be considered North American.There are,of course,exceptions.Small-minded officials,rude waiters,and ill-mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US.Yet it is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment.
For a long period of time and in many parts of the country,a traveler was a welcome break in an otherwise dull existence.Dullness and loneliness were common problems of the families who generally lived distant from one another.Strangers and travelers were welcome sources of distraction,and brought news of the outside world.
The tough realities of the border also shaped this tradition of hospitality.Someone traveling alone,if hungry,injured,or ill,often had nowhere to turn except to the nearest settler agent.It was not a matter of choice for the traveler or merely a charitable impulse on the part of the settlers.It reflected the hardship of daily life:if you didn't take in the stranger and take care of him,there was no one else who would.And someday,remember,you might be in the same situation.
Today there are many charitable organizations which specialize in helping the exhausted traveler.Yet,the old tradition of hospitality to strangers is still very strong in the US,especially in the smaller cities and towns away from the busy tourist routes."I was just traveling through,got talking with this American,and pretty soon he invited me home for dinner-amazing."Such observations reported by visitors to the US are not uncommon,but are not always understood properly.The casual friendliness of many Americans should be interpreted neither as superficial)nor as artificial,but as the result of a historically developed cultural tradition.
As is true of any developed society,in America a complex set of cultural signals and customs is the basis of all social interrelationships.And,of course,speaking a language does not necessarily mean that someone understands social and cultural patterns.Visitors who fail to"translate"cultural meanings properly often draw wrong conclusions.For example when an American uses the word"friend",the cultural meanings of the word may be quite different from those it has in the visitor's language and culture.It takes more than a brief encounter on a bus to tell polite customs from individual interest.Yet,being friendly is a virtue that many Americans value highly and expect from both neighbors and strangers.
32.In the eyes of visitors from the outside world,D.
A.rude taxi drivers are rarely seen in the US
B.small-minded officials deserve a serious comment
C.Canadians are not so friendly as their neighbors
D.most Americans are ready to offer help
33.It could be inferred from the last paragraph thatA.
A.culture has an influence over social inter-relationship
B.polite customs and individual interest are inter-related
C.various virtues shows themselves only among friends
D.social inter-relationships equal the complex set of cultural customs
34.Families in border settlements used to entertain strangersC.
A.to improve their hard life                  
B.in view of their long-distance travel
C.to add some flavor to their own daily life     
D.out of a charitable impulse
35.The tradition of hospitality to strangersB.
A.tends to be superficial and artificial               
B.is generally well kept up in the United States
C.is always understood properly        
D.has something to do with the busy tourist route.
