Journey to the West is a fantastic story set in the Tang Dynasty. The story goes like this. Tangseng and his four companions went through adventurous experiences to get the scriptures, which could be beneficial to ordinary people. They made a long and hard journey westwards to achieve their dream. The Monkey King, also called Sun Wukong, managed to fight against all kinds of difficulties. Therefore, the Monkey King as a symbol of bravery and determination is deeply loved by us Chinese. The story is so amazing that it is well worth reading. I hope you can like it, and I believe you can learn more about Chinese culture from this book.

I could end on a note of calm and act like the patient mum I hadn’t quite managed to be just hours before.”可知,本段主要讲述了作者在生活中应用了峰终定律,每天坚持给女儿们讲睡前故事,无论这一天发生了什么,她都会耐心平静地用故事结束女儿们的一天,故选C项。 4.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Don’t mist ... ...
