人生就像一场旅行，不必在乎目的地，在乎的是沿途的风景以及看风景的心情。现在让我们来分享几条中国最美的火车旅行线路，只要买上一张票，背上背包，你就能开始一段与众不同的旅行。 ☆Road into the clouds Route: Xining, Qinghai to Lhasa, Tibet Time: 23－24 hours Known as the highest railway in the world, the Qinghai－Tibet railway—or “heavenly road”—climbs to 5,000 meters above sea level. On the way, you can view different landscapes①： the beautiful Qinghai Lake, the grand Kunlun Mountains, the mysterious source of the Yangtze River, the vast Qiangtang grasslands. When the train passes through Hoh Xil National Nature Reserve, you may even see Tibetan antelopes and other wild animals running on the plateau②. ☆Voyage through history Route: Xian, Shaanxi to Dunhuang, Gansu Time: 22－23 hours From Xian, the beginning of the ancient Silk Road to Dunhuang, famous for the Mogao Grottoes, this is a trip through Chinas history. The relics③ of the great wall in the Ming Dynasty, the Jiayuguan Pass, and the snow-capped Qilian mountains are worth seeing. In Lanzhou, you can see the yellow river flowing through the city. As the train passes through the long Hexi Corridor, endless views of desert await. ☆Top choice for nature lovers Route: Guangzhou, Guangdong to Anshun, Yunnan Time: 22－24 hours This is a journey to embrace④ Chinas picturesque nature. You can see dense forests and red soil in the western part of Guangdong Province. As the train climbs to the Yunnan—Guizhou Plateau, the gnarled rocky hills, karst landforms and layered terraces will amaze you. With blue skies, verdant mountains and fresh air along the whole way, its a good chance to relax and refresh yourself. 【注】　①landscape n. 风景；风景画　②plateau n. 高原　③relic n. 遗迹　④embrace v． n. 拥抱 vt. 包含 【立德树人】　旅游可以放松身心，开阔眼界(broaden ones horizon)，洗涤心境，可以见识世界大好河山(beautiful rivers and mountains of the world)。作为中学生，节假日期间也可以多出去走走，感悟人生，了解各地的风俗习惯(learn about local customs)，见识各地的奇人异事，从旅行中学到更多知识。 Section Ⅰ　Reading and Thinking 基础知识 预习自检 SEEING THE TRUE NORTH VIA RAIL： VANCOUVER AND THE HEART OF CANADA Li Daiyu and her cousin Liu Qian wen
