17. Part 2 Reading Passage A Brief Introduction to Chinese Tourist Cities (2) Chongqing— City of Hills, Fogs and Spicy Food

18. Meaning "double celebrations" in Chinese, Chongqing was built in the 11th century BC during the Zhou Dynasty. It has become the fourth municipality after Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin on March 14, 1997. • Known as one of China’s "Three Furnaces"1 (along with Wuhan and Nanjing), Chongqing is unbearably hot during the summer. The surrounding mountains seem to trap the heat. It is pleasant to visit the city in other seasons. • Also known as "Fog City" in addition to "the Furnace," Chongqing is covered with a thick layer of fog for an average of 68 days a year, usually in spring or autumn. The fog gives the place an air of mystery.

19. Spread across a number of low hills, surrounded by mountains, and straddling the Yangtze River, Chongqing is a natural wonder. The main features of the downtown area are the hilly slopes. Travelers soon learn to get used to the feeling of going up and down, up and down. Locals compare the terrain to San Francisco. At night, climbing up onto one of the less-populated hills affords panoramic views of the city’s night lights. Due to the city’s hilly terrain, you can see a hierarchy of lights in all directions. Lights in different colors sparkle and shine in layers and are reflected in the sparkling river, creating a mirage-like view -- it‘s hard to tell the river and the lights.

20. But it is to cruise down China’s longest river, the Yangtze, passing through the famous Three Gorges that most tourists come to Chongqing. With over 100 cruise ships that begin their itineraries in the city, there is no better place to start a Three Gorges river tour. • Chongqing’s hot spicy food is famous. The most well-known dish is the hotpot, which is a pot of boiling broth that you put various uncooked food items into. The meal always takes a long time, so it is good to eat it in the company of others.

21. municipality • n. 直辖市，自治区，自治市 • 直辖市是直属中央政府管理的省级行政单位。目前中华人民共和国的省级行政单位共有以下几种：省、自治区、直辖市和特别行政区，这四种行政单位都是省一级的。中国有四个直辖市分别是北京市,上海市,天津市和重庆市。

22. Fog City • 雾都 • 重庆市地处中国内陆之西南，位于长江上游，是一个多中心组团式的城市。城市依山而建，人谓“山城”；冬春雨轻雾重，又号“雾都”。

23. straddling • straddle v. 跨立，叉开腿(坐着)； • You shouldn't have straddled when talking with the guests • 你和客人们谈话的时候，本来不应该叉开腿坐着的。 • Tony straddled three very different worlds. • 托尼一生中凌驾于三个非常不同的世界。

24. cruise ships • 巡游船 • cruise n. v. • (军舰等)巡逻, 巡航 • 游览

25. hotpot • 火锅 • 火锅作为一种传统饮食方法，北方称之为“吃涮锅”，广东　则名之日“打边炉”，江南一带叫做“吃暖锅“，四川人更是直截了当称之为”“吃火锅”。不管称谓如何，这种传统的饮食方法有一共同点，都是将锅置于炉上，内放依法制成的卤汁烧沸，荤素原料入锅，烫或涮而后食之。
