Known as the Forbidden City(紫禁城), two new areas in the Palace Museum has been open -- the Broken Rainbow Bridge and the Eighteen Ancient Pagoda Trees -- to the public since Sept 29, 2016. According to the the Palace Museum curator(馆长) Shan Jixiang, 76 percent of the Forbidden City will be open by the end of 2016. In Chinese, the palace is called zijincheng, which means “the purple forbidden city”. However, purple is not seen a lot in the palace. The palace has mainly been painted in two colors, yellow and red. Red, the color of fire, shows happiness and success, while yellow stands for the earth and the Yellow River, the place where Chinese civilization(文明)came from. In ancient China, only emperor(皇帝) used yellow. Then where did purple come from? Ancient Chinese astronomers(天文学家) believed that Polaris(北极星), the purple star, was in the center of heaven(天堂) and the heavenly emperor lived in the Purple Palace. So the palace for the emperor on Earth was called “the purple city”. Entering was not allowed unless the emperor gave permission. In most people’s eyes, for the first time visitors to Beijing, no trip is complete without a visit to the Palace Museum. 1.If a visitor wants to see “the Broken Rainbow Bridge”, when must he/she go to the Palace Museum? A. Anytime in the year. B. From Sept 29, 2016. C. The end of 2016. D. Only on Sept 29, 2016. 2.What does the underlined phrase “ gave permission” mean in the passage?

Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang Province, China, was chosen to be the host city of the 19th Asian Games(亚运会). However, some people say that the 19th Asian Games will be held in 2022, while some say 2023. Which is true? To make it clear, we need to have a better understanding of Asian Games first. The Asian Games is a multi-sport event. It is held every four years among athletes from all over Asia. It is the second largest multi-sport event after the Olympic Games. The Asian Games are always held at the same year as the World Cup, which is also held every four years. Many people around the world pay more attention to the World Cup. This really makes the Olympic Council of Asia(OCA) worried. So, the OCA decides to postpone the 18th Asian Games for a year. That is in 2019. In this way, the Asian Games won’t be held in the same year as the World Cup. So Hangzhou will hold the event in 2023. Hanoi(河内), capital of Vietnam(越南), is the host city of the 18th Asian Games. However, Vietnamese government announced in 2014 that Hanoi gave up the right to host the Asian Games because they don’t have enough money. Luckily, Djakarta(雅加达), capital of Indonesia(印度尼西亚), was willing to be the host city instead of Hanoi. But then came another problem. Djakarta will hold presidential election(总统选举) in 2019, so the government wanted to change the holding time of the Asian Games back to 2018. The OCA agreed. 1.The 19th Asian Games is to be held in Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang in . A. 2023 B. 2022 C. 2019 D. 2018 2.What does the underlined word “postpone” mean in the passage?
