National parks are large areas of public land. They give a safe home for local plants and animals. They help keep the air and water clean. They also give us the best trips. Today, there are nearly 7,000 national parks around the world. Forbes has listed 12 of the most beautiful ones in the world that will surprise you with their amazing landscape, geographic wonders and colourful plants and animals.
The Grand Canyon (大峡谷)National Park of the US is one of the Seven National Wonders of the World. It is best known for its size and depth. It is 446 kilometers long, up to 29 kilometers wide, and 1.6 kilometers deep. The immensity of the canyon makes people think big. Every year, about 5 million people visit here. Taking a tour in the South Rim offers visitors the park’s full views, while the North Rim shows beautiful wild flowers.
If you love animals, you’ll like the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. The “ Big Five” live here. They are the lion, African elephant, African leopard, black rhinoceros and African buffalo. The name “ Big Five” came from the five animals that were the hardest to catch. Now they are what people most want to see in the wild.

A short Chinese man seems to be tallest in the world right now. Jack Ma (Ma Yun) is executive chairman(董事局主席)of Alibaba Group, a business –to-business online platform. On September 19, 2014,Alibaba went public on the New York Stock Exchange (纽约证券交易所), raising $25 billion through an IPO, the biggest in US history. Ma, a former English teacher, has become the richest man on the Chinese mainland.
Born in Hangzhou, Zhejiang , Ma grew up as a happy kid. At the age of 12, he wanted to learn English. Every morning, he awoke at 5 am, cycled 40 minutes to a hotel near the West Lake where he could chat to foreign tourists. He did it for nine years, rain or shine.
The experience made him a fluent English speaker and also opened his eyes to the wider world. In a 1995 trip to the US, Ma was shown the Internet for the first time. He searched Yahoo using the word “Beer” ,and found that there was nothing in there about China. Seeing the chance, Ma returned to China and set up a website called China Pages without even knowing much about computers.
Four years later, 18 people including Ma, his wife and his friends founded Alibaba in Hangzhou. He believed in the Internet business potential(潜力)when few other Chinese did. People called him “ Crazy Jack Ma”. But 15 years later, Alibaba has developed into the world’s largest e-commerce(电子商务)company, owning popular shopping websites like Taobao and Tmall. It makes more profit online than Amazon and E-Bay combined.
No one thinks he’s mad now. Ma’s favourite line has been printed on Alibaba’s souvenir T-shirts. It reads: “Everybody should have a dream. What if that dream comes true?”
