DLiverpool, my hometown, is a unique city. It is so unique that in 2004 it became a World Heritage (遗产) Site.I recently returned to my home city and my first stop was at a museum on the River Mersey. Blanketed in mist (薄雾), Victorian architecture rose from the banks of the river, responded to the sounds of sea-birds, and appeared unbelievably charming. When I headed toward the centre, I found myself surrounded by buildings that mirror the best palaces of Europe. It is not hard to imagine why, on first seeing the city, most visitors would be overpowered by the beauty of the noble buildings, which are solid signs of Liverpool’s history.As if stress its cultural role, Liverpool has more museums and galleries (美术馆) than most cities in Britain. At Walker Art Gallery, I was told that it has best collections of Victorian paintings in the world, and is the home of modern art in the north of England. However, culture is more than galleries. Liverpool offers many music events. As Britain’s No.1 music city, it has the biggest city music festival in Europe, and its musicians are famous all over the world. Liverpool is also well-known for its football and other sports events. Every year, the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of visitors, madding the city a place of wonder.As you would expect from such a city, there are restaurants serving food from around the world. When my trip was about to complete, I chose to rest my legs in Liverpool’s famous Philharmonic pub (酒馆). It is a monument to perfection, and a heritage attraction itself.Being a World Heritage Site, my home city is certainly a place of “outstanding universal value”. It is a treasure house with plenty of secrets for the world to explore.68. Visitors who see the city for the first time would be deeply impressed by __________.A. its charming banksB. its famous museumsC. its wonderful palacesD. its attractive buildings

资料：Some companies are more creative in their use of history than others. HSBC’s History Wall, a striking art installation at the bank’s London headquarters, is made up of 3,743 images drawn from the bank’s archives and arranged in chronological order.Even this is dwarfed by Coca Cola, the American classics. In May, Coca Cola opened a new corporate museum in Atlanta, which is expected to pull in more than 1 million visitors annually, Attractions include the first Coke cans to go into space, a functioning botting line and a tasting lounge.The benefits of knowing your corporate history can be very practical. Companies often use their history as inspiration for new products. Disney constantly mines its archives of old films. Carmakers have overhauled old designs for the modern era: Volkswagen’s New Beetle is an obvious example.But the bigger payoff tends to be less tangible — that of forging stronger bonds with customers and employees. Age can by itself confer a sense of trustworthiness, brewers and banks are fond of flaunting（炫耀） their deep roots. Jim Gilmore, co-author of “Authenticity”, argues that history is also vital in giving companies a genuine sense of personality. Ritz-Carlton’s use of cobalt-blue glasses in its hotel dining rooms can be traced back to Boston in the 1920s, for example, where window glass that had been imported from Europe and turned blue in the New England air was a symbol of wealth. Rather than commissioning dusty biographies to mark anniversaries, Mr. Gilmore believes that firms should search the archives for inspiring stories of this kind.Younger companies can use history, too. Before giving up their old jobs, the founders of Innocent, a British drinks firm formed in 1998,sold an initial batch of smoothies from a market stall in London. They asked customers to put their empty bottles into one of two labeled bins to indicate whether they should focus on their new venture or stick to their day jobs. The rest, as they say, is history. The firm now uses the story to illustrate its folksy image.According to the first paragraph, what does the example of HSBC show?A.The bank has greater power than other banks.B.The bank contributes a lot to the development of London.C.The bank uses its history more creatively.D.The bank has a different business model than other firms.
The main idea of the last paragraph is that( ) A.London still keeps buildings familiar to Dickens so as to commemorate him B.many places in London offered inspirations to Dickens C.a museum has been set up in honor of Dickens D.for all the drastic changes，some places are still reminiscent of London in Dickens’s time
