ORIGINAL WRITING SAMPLE

Read a representative passage

This compact route shows three versions of central Shanghai within one day: the classical-garden and old-city fabric around Yuyuan, the nineteenth- and twentieth-century financial architecture of the Bund, and the bright commercial axis of East Nanjing Road. The route is mostly flat and connected by metro, but holiday crowd control can close stations and reverse the easiest walking plan.
