Last summer I went to one of the world’s most famous historical places, the Forbidden City in Beijing, China. It was the home of the emperors of the last two dynasties in China, the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The Forbidden City was built in 1420. The palace has over 10,000 rooms. It was where the emperors dealt with the official business with their ministers.

In mandarin（普通話）, the Forbidden City is called the Purple Forbidden City. However, the color of the palace itself is not purple. The color purple stands for power of the great emperors of China. It was so sacred（神圣的）that the commoners could not even dream of ever going in.

The emperor also had some of the largest festival celebrations at the Forbidden City. During Chinese New Year, the emperor would invite all the members of his family and his officials to a banquet. The banquet had a hundred and eight Chinese dishes. It was such an expensive banquet that it could feed a commoner’s family for three generations（代）.

Right now the Forbidden City is known as a historical site for tourists from all over the world. Everyone can go in there. It is a museum with priceless Chinese antiques（古董）and treasures in it.

I really learned a lot about the Chinese culture and its history from this trip to the Forbidden City. It was like a dream come true to go on the trip and see the things that I had always wanted to see.

1.How long is the history of the Forbidden City?

A. About 600 years. B. More than 600 years.

C. 1,420 years. D. Over 10,000 years.

2.We all the palace the Purple Forbidden City because the color purple is the symbol of ______ of the emperor.

D. The emperor had festival celebrations there.
