Ⅳ.Read the passage and complete the following tasks.
Tuesday, 1 October
There is a popular saying among Chinese people—"East or west, Guilin landscape is the best." Today I got to see it with my own eyes. The most beautiful part of Guilin landscape is the Li River. The colour green met my eyes all around. The water was clear, like a long piece of glass. The green hills around created a beautiful reflection on the river. Everything was like coming out of a Chinese painting and gave me a calm feeling.
Thursday, 3 October
The Longji Terraced Fields in Guilin are really a must-see place in autumn. It is one of the most famous rice terraces in the world. I was lucky to catch the golden moment of sunset. When the winds came, the rice fields were like golden seas, shining brightly under the sun. The beautiful colour made me feel peaceful.
