五、 One possible version:
I’m Li Ming from China. Today I’ll introduce two famous cities to you. One is Beijing and the other is Guilin.
In the middle of the ancient city of Beijing is the Palace Museum. Many emperors used to live there. Next to it is Tian’anmen Square, the biggest city square in the world. In the north-west of Beijing is the Summer Palace. It was once a nice place for the emperors to spend the summer. Another famous attraction is the Great Wall, which is one of the wonders of the world.
Guilin is also a beautiful city. It lies on the two sides of the Lijiang River. In the north-west of the city is the Reed Flute Cave, which is praised as the “Art Palace of Nature”. It is great fun to take a boat trip along the Lijiang River. You can also hire a bicycle and ride around the countryside.
I hope you can come to visit Beijing and Guilin one day.
