     Wales Coastal Path
     Wales is the only country in the world that has an official walking path covering its whole borders.The Wales Coastal Path is a footpath stretching 870 miles from Chester to Chepstow.Walking the whole thing might be demanding，but there are plenty of stretches that can be enjoyed over a day or two.

     You need a fair amount of annual leave，a casual 52 days or so，to undertake this in one go.The route runs from Somerset all the way to Dorset，via rugged cliffs，cute fishing villages and surfing spots along the coastline.You can surely jump on to any point as you like，but you can't afford to miss all the pubs full of jokes and laughter on the way!
     Coast to Coast Walk
     This long-distance trail isn't official，but popular in the country，taking hikers from the Irish Sea to the North Sea as it rolls into historic Robin Hood's Bay in Yorkshire.Following local footpaths，the route takes you through three UK National Parks：the Lakes，the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors.
     Cleveland Way
     You'll want nine days to fully complete this hike，which explores both the North York Moors and the county's world-famous coastline.Just make sure you allow enough time to properly enjoy spots like Roseberry Topping hill and pick up a gentle afternoon walk at Whitby's clifftop church.

• 2．As William Shakespeare is to literature in English，so is the poet Du Fu to the Chinese literary tradition. "We have Dante，Shakespeare and Du Fu.These poets create the very values by which poetry is judged"，remarked by Harvard Professor Stephen Owen in Du Fu ，China's Greatest Poet，a new BBC documentary that aired on April 7.
     Aimed at introducing the charm and beauty of traditional Chinese literature to viewers around the globe，the documentary invited famous British actor Ian McKellen，who played the wizard Gandalf in the film series The Lord of the Rings，to read 15 of Du's poems that have been translated into English.
     The one-hour film traces the poet's life experiences in detail.Born in 712，Du lived under the reign of the Tang Emperor Xuanzong（713—756），a time marked by extraordinary prosperity，inclusiveness and cultural accomplishment.
     However，as the An Lushan Rebellion floored the empire，the 43-year-old Du，the former civil servant at the Tang court，had to take his family out of his hometown，and faced starvation and sufferings.Through ups and downs，the poet never stopped writing and about 1，500 poems have been kept over the ages.
     Even though he never held a high position in the government，Du still cared about common people.For example，in the poem My Cottage Unroofed by Autumn Gales，he wrote that "Could I get mansions covering ten thousand miles，I'd house all scholars poor and make them beam with smiles".
     "That is why he was honored as a Poet Sage by later generations.A difficult life and his spirit of concern about the world helped him create so many masterpieces"，Shi Wenxue，a cultural critic based in Beijing，told the Global Times.
     Without doubt，Du is a cultural symbol of ancient China，but his brilliant works and core spirits have also inspired people outside of China.As the documentary noted，his work represents a precious cultural heritage for the entire world，not just China.
  
  （1）What can we know about the documentary？

  
  A．It shows 15 of Du Fu's poems to the audience.
  B．Du Fu is acted by Ian McKellen in it.
  C．Its target audience is Chinese.
  D．It introduces Shakespeare.
  （2）What does the underlined word "That" in paragraph 6 refer to？

  
  A．The sentence of the poem.
  B．My Cottage Unroofed by Autumn Gales.
  C．The low position in the government.
  D．Caring about common people.
  （3）What most inspired Du's creation according to Shi Wenxue？

  
  A．His work experience.
  B．The An Lushan rebellion.
  C．Hard life and his caring spirit.
  D．The Tang dynasty culture background.
  （4）In which section of a website may this text appear？

  
  A．Entertainment.
  B．Literature.
  C．Health.
  D．Science.

• 3．The next time you have cheese loudly，remember the French scientist Louis Pasteur who discovered that bad milk，and many diseases are caused by bacteria （細菌）.
     Louis Pasteur is known as the father of microbiology.In his lifetime，he not only proved that bacteria are the cause of diseases，but also discovered the process of vaccination （接種疫苗），which has saved billions of lives.
     When Pasteur worked with chickens that were suffering from cholera during his experiments，he accidentally spread cholera to his chickens.Pasteur's chickens became mildly sick but did not die.This was strange as every chicken that came near cholera earlier had died.He realized soon that the cholera had become weak.By the time he tried again，the chickens he had cured earlier did not get cholera anymore.He realized that a weak cholera helped，his chickens develop an antibody against it.
     Later，Pasteur went on to try this on cows，pigs and dogs.All his research helped him develop different vaccines.We now know that the process of vaccination introduces a weakened kind of bacteria into our body.Our body reacts by creating antibodies to fight the bacteria.Now，when our body comes across the same bacteria which are much stronger，it can fight them off.
     Louis Pasteur received numerous awards for the advancement of biology，chemistry，and medicine.He founded the Pasteur Institute to study diseases.It was the first university，to teach microbiology and today there are 32 institutes across 29 countries.For every child vaccinated against a deadly disease，we have Louis Pasteur to thank.
