B Read three people's descriptions of their visits to Jiuzhaigou Valley and answer the questions.
My mum and I dreamed of visiting Jiuzhaigou Valley for years, and this autumn we finally made the trip. It was everything we hoped for. Towering mountains, blue-green lakes and colourful autumn trees were all around us. My favourite moment came when Mum and I stood at the bottom of a huge waterfall. White water seemed to rush towards us. We held hands and felt the great power of nature. It's a memory we'll share and recall forever.
—Virginia Sullivan, 22
As a biologist, I have long been interested in Jiuzhaigou Valley. Every summer, I visit the valley to study the rich plant life there. It's a biologist's dream! This area is home to more than 2,000 different kinds of plants—and some of them are quite rare. Thanks to a special mix of its location, climate and altitude, the valley provides a perfect environment for herbs and wildflowers. Some of the rare plants are even used in medicine. I've visited the valley more than ten times, and I always discover something new each time. I can't wait to see what I'll find this year.
—Steven Zhou, 45
I knew Jiuzhaigou Valley would be magical in winter—and it is! A blanket of soft, fresh snow covers everything: the mountains, the trees and the ground. The lakes are frozen, yet they still shine with a beautiful blue colour. Many of the waterfalls have turned into ice too. They look like wonderful ice sculptures! The whole world feels quiet and peaceful in this white landscape. It's like walking through a frozen wonderland.

我和妈妈多年来一直梦想着去九寨沟游玩，今年秋天我们终于如愿以偿。这里完全符合我们的期待。巍峨的群山、碧绿的湖泊、五彩斑斓的秋叶环绕在我们身边。我最喜欢的时刻，是我和妈妈站在巨大的瀑布脚下时。雪白的水流仿佛向我们奔涌而来。我们手牵着手，感受着大自然的磅礴力量。这将是我们永远珍藏、永远回忆的美好记忆。
—— 弗吉妮娅・沙利文，22 岁
作为一名生物学家，我一直对九寨沟很感兴趣。每年夏天，我都会来到这里，研究这里丰富的植物。这里简直是生物学家的梦想之地！这片区域拥有 2000 多种不同的植物，其中一些还非常稀有。得益于独特的地理位置、气候和海拔，九寨沟为草本植物和野花提供了完美的生长环境。有些珍稀植物甚至还能入药。我已经来过九寨沟十多次了，每次都能有新的发现。我已经迫不及待想知道今年会有什么新发现了。
—— 周史蒂文，45 岁
我早就知道冬天的九寨沟会如梦似幻 —— 事实的确如此！柔软洁白的新雪覆盖了一切：山峦、树木、地面。湖泊结了冰，却依然泛着美丽的蓝色。许多瀑布也冻成了冰，看上去就像精美的冰雕！在这片白色的世界里，一切都显得宁静祥和。走在这里，就像漫步在冰封的仙境。
—— 简・肯特，31 岁
