Beijing, China

The Beijing Subway was opened in 1969 and is the oldest subway system in China. It has added some modern technologies. All stations now have touch-screen maps. In some stations, people can also see traditional Chinese culture. For example, on the walls of a few stations of Line 8, there are some pictures of blue and white porcelain(青花瓷)．

Stockholm, Sweden

The first subway line for Stockholm was opened in 1950. The Stockholm Subway is well-known for its decoration of the stations. It is called the longest art gallery in the world. Over 90 percent of its stations are decorated with paintings. A few stations are decorated with red bedrocks(岩床). This makes you feel as if you are in a cave.

四、阅读表达

阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。

(2019·预测)

We sometimes say the lion is “the king of the jungle” because it is

stronger and more dangerous than the other animals. It can run faster than

most other animals and it can hunt better. The lion is the highest animal

in the food chain. In the sea the shark is at the top of the food chain. It can swim faster than most other sea animals. It can also use its big teeth to catch other sea animals and eat them.

What is at the top of the world's food chain? Humans are! We are not the

biggest or fastest, but we are the cleverest. We could not run faster than most

animals, so we invented cars and now we can move fastest. We could not fight

better than lions, so we invented guns. Now we can hunt the best.

People's inventions are clever, but they can be dangerous, too. For example, many years ago, in Inner Mongolia, people used guns to kill a lot of wild wolves. The wild wolves usually eat wild rabbits. But in recent years, the number of wild rabbits is becoming bigger and bigger because the number of wild wolves is getting smaller and smaller. The wild rabbits competed for the grass with the sheep and cows. Much of the grassland became desert because it was seriously destroyed by the rabbits.

Remember that we are a part of the food chain, so we are in danger, too! If we protect animals, we are protecting ourselves.
