You’ll find this incredible display of nature in the Kenya Lake System in the Great Rift Valley. First stop Fly into Nairobi, the capital of Kenya. This great city is known for its fashion markets and beautiful art. And be sure to pick up some rich Kenyan coffee while you’re there! Then head for the countryside. Plan your trip The largest of the three lakes in the system, Lake Nakuru, is less than 175 kilometers from Nairobi. But Lakes Bogoria and Elementaita are equally worth a visit. You can stay at one of several choices of luxurious cabins in the valley. And if you sign up for a trip, be sure to put flamingos, the white and pink birds, at the top of your list. Paradise （北京）股份有限公司 The Kenya Lake System is shallow and alkaline (碱性的). That means it supports vegetation such as green algae, a food source for many waterfowl. Hundreds of species of birds flourish here, using this area as a major breeding and nesting ground. Water buffalo, leopards, monkeys and the endangered Rothschild giraffe also make this area their home. （北京）股份有限公司 Other sights Wildlife isn’t the only natural wonder in the Great Rift Valley. The valley marks a place where the earth is divided far below the surface. This rock separation below ground leads to noticeable features above ground. Walking around Lake Bogoria especially, you will see steam rising from hot springs. Other activities include golfing, horseback riding and hiking. The fun doesn’t stop when the sun goes down, either. The river valley is far from city lights, so many visitors gaze at the stars shining above. If you are ready for a wildlife experience, don’t hesitate! 21 Where can you buy fashionable gifts in Kenya? A. Nairobi. B. Lake Nakuru. C. Lake Bogoria. D. Lake Elementaita. 22.

It’s famous for rich culture and history. B Of late, the Chinese media have turned the spotlight on a woman named Li Ziqi, praising her for doing an excellent job of "telling China's story to the world". Li seems to have become an unofficial cultural ambassador showcasing China's history and culture. Li, 29, lives with her grandma in a small village of Mianyang. She has been posting videos of her daily life on social media platforms since March 2016 to connect to the world. Her popularity online can be proved from these figures: on YouTube, Li's "channel" has more than 7.61 million subscribers, and the figure is growing daily. On Sina Weibo, one of China's most popular social media platforms, she has more than 21.5 million fans. And each of her 104 YouTube posts has been viewed between 2 million and over 40 million times. Technically, the fine quality of her cinematographic output is the most eye- catching feature. The stunning scenery of Li's village, her elegant yet confident way of getting jobs done, and the relaxing background music are all appealing to viewers. Culturally, what touches the heart of L's followers is the universal language of love, inner peace, caring for the family and love for nature. Many viewers find inspiration from Li's posts. Others , tired of their technology driven fast paced urban life, find comfort in her simple and tranquil life. Ironically, Li has not been as well received at home as overseas. Some critics question whether she alone filmed and edited her early posts. A few even accuse her of showcasing the "backwardness" of China to foreigners, while some argue that her presentation of rural China is imaginary. And recently, a debate has started on whether or not Li is "exporting" Chinese culture abroad. （北京）股份有限公司 But the fact that Li single-handedly produced her early works has been documented and publicized and she cannot be blamed for having a small crew now that her filming and editing work has increased. As for "exporting culture", Li has never claimed the responsibility of spreading Chinese culture to the world. What she does instead is merely recording and presenting her lifestyle to make a living. Li's popularity makes us reflect on what should be an effective way of "telling China's story" to the world and changing the stereotype image of China described in some Western media. 24. What's the purpose of the figures listed in paragraph 3? A. To suggest that Li is more popular on Sina Weibo than on YouTube. B. To show that Li is liked by a large number of netizens. C. To explain why Li is praised by the Chinese media. D. To persuade more netizens to subscribe Li's "channel" . 25. What does the underlined word "tranquil" in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Complex. B. Tiring. C. Peaceful. D. Touching. 26. Why does Li post her videos online? A. To make a living. B. To export Chinese culture abroad. C. To improve her skills in producing videos. D. To show her love for her grandma. 27. What might the author talk about next? A. Effective ways to become an online cele
