长城修筑的历史悠久，工程雄伟浩大，是世界少有的奇迹。长城东西南北交错，绵延伏于我们伟大祖国辽阔的土地上。它好像一条巨龙，翻越巍巍群山，穿过茫茫草原，跨过浩瀚的沙漠，奔向苍茫的大海。根据历史文献记载，有20多个诸侯国家和封建王朝修筑过长城，若把各个时代修筑的长城加起来，大约有10万里以上。其中秦、汉、明3个朝代所修长城的长度都超过了1万里。现在我国新疆、 甘肃、 宁夏、 陕西、 内蒙古、 山西、河北、北京、 天津、 辽宁、 吉林、 黑龙江、 河南、山东、湖北、湖南等省、市、自治区都有古长城、峰火台的遗迹。其中仅内蒙古自治区的长城就达3万多里。

明朝在“外边”长城之外，还修筑了“内边”长城和“内三关”长城。“内关”长城以北齐所筑为基础，起自内蒙古与山西交界处的偏关以西，东行经雁门关、平型诸关入河北，然后折向东北，经来源、房山、昌平诸县，直达居庸关，然后又由北而东，至怀柔的四海关、与“外边”长城相接，以紫荆关为中心，大致成南北走向。“内三关”长城在很多地方和“内边”长城并行，有些地方两城相隔仅数十里。除此以外，还修筑了大量的“重城”。雁门关一带的“重城”就有24道之多！

长城是我国古代劳动人民创造的奇迹。自秦始皇开始，修筑长城一直是一项大工程。据记载，秦始皇使用了近百万劳动力修筑长城，占全国人口的1/20！当时没有任何机械，除运土、运砖可以用毛驴、山羊能爬山的牲畜外，全部劳动都得靠人力，而工作环境又是崇山峻岭、峭壁深壑。可以想见，没有大量的人群进行艰苦的劳动，是无法完成这项巨大工程的。

万里长城的工程量，据粗略估计，仅以明朝修筑为例，若将其砖石、土方用修筑一道厚1米、高5米的大墙，可环绕地球一周有余。如果用来铺筑一条宽5米、厚35厘米的马路，那就能绕地球三四周了。如果把所有朝代所修的总计10万里来计算，则这道长墙可绕地球十几周，这条马路，可绕地球三四十周。

“因地地形，用险制塞”是修筑长城的一条重要经验，在秦始皇的时候已经把它肯定下来，司马迁把它写入《史记》之中。以后每一个朝代修筑长城都是按照这一原则进行的。凡是修筑关城隘口都是非曲直选择在两山峡谷之间，或是河流转折之处。或是平川往来必经之地，这样既能控制险要，又可节约人力和材料，以达“一夫当关，万夫莫开”的效果。修筑城堡或烽火台也是选择在“四顾要之处”至于修筑城墙，更是充分地利用地地形，如像居庸关、八达岭的长城都有是沿着山岭的脊背修筑，有的地段从城墙外侧看去非常险峻，内侧则甚是平缓，收“易守难攻”之效。在辽宁境内，明代辽东镇的长城有一种

叫山险墙、劈山墙的，就是利用悬崖陡壁，稍微把崖壁劈削一下就成为长城 了。还有一些地方完全利用危崖绝壁、江河湖泊作为天然屏障，真可以说是巧夺天工了.长城，作为一顶伟大的工程，成为中华民族的一份宝贵遗产。

eijing, a huge, serrated wall zigzags its way to the east and west along the undulating mountains. This is the Great Wall, which is said to be visible from the moon.

对西北地区和北京北部，一个巨大的，锯齿状壁曲折，它的方式向东、西沿起伏的山脉。这是长城，它是说是从月球上看到的。

Construction of the Great Wall started in the 7th century B.C. The vassal states under the Zhou Dynasty in the northern parts of the country each built their own walls for defence purposes. After the state of Qin unified China in 221 B.C., it joined the walls to hold off the invaders from the Xiongnu tribes in the north and extended them to more than 10,000 li or 5,000 kilometers. This is the origin of the name Of the "10,000-li Great Wall".

长城的建设开始于公元前第七世纪在周朝诸侯国在该国北部地区建立自己的墙壁，用于国防目的。秦国统一中国后，于公元前221年，它加入了墙壁，把侵略者从匈奴部落在北美和扩展到10000多个锂或5000公里。这是名称由来的“长城””。

The Great Wall was renovated from time to time after the Qin Dynasty. A major renovation started with the founding of the Ming Dynasty in 1368, and took 200 years to complete. The wall we see today is almost exactly the result of this effort. With a total length of over 6,000 kilometers, it extends to the jiayu Pass in Gansu Province in the west and to the mouth of the Yalu River in Liaoning Province in the east. What lies north of Beijing is but a small section of it.

长城是装修后不时秦朝。一项重大革新始于明代开国1368，并花了200年时间完成。今天我们看到的长城几乎是这一努力的结果。与总长度超过6000公里，它延伸到嘉鱼在甘肃省西部和鸭绿江的辽宁省的东。北京不过是它的一小部分。

建造这一项宏伟的建筑时，既没有机械，又没有运输工具。这完全是用人力完成的。不管严寒酷暑，人们还是坚持工作。即使下着暴雨或刮起大风，他么也在辛勤的工作。就这样经历了多少日夜的风风雨雨，万里长城在这儿拔地而起，显示出中华人民的气魄是多么的宏伟，伟大。这些古人何不具有一种顽强的毅力和不屈不挠，不被困难吓倒的精神呢?而我与他们相比，简直是天壤之别。我感觉自己是中看不中用，惭愧不已。

长城修筑的历史悠久，工程雄伟浩大，是世界少有的奇迹。长城东西南北交错，绵延伏于我们伟大祖国辽阔的土地上。它好像一条巨龙，翻越巍巍群山，穿过茫茫草原，跨过浩瀚的沙漠，奔向苍茫的大海。根据历史文献记载，有20多个诸侯国家和封建王朝修筑过长城，若把各个时代修筑的长城加起来，大约有10万里以上。其中秦、汉、明3个朝代所修长城的长度都超过了1万里。现在我国新疆、 甘肃、 宁夏、 陕西、 内蒙古、 山西、河北、北京、 天津、 辽宁、 吉林、 黑龙江、河南、山东、湖北、湖南等省、市、自治区都有古长城、峰火台的遗迹。其中仅内蒙古自治区的长城就达3万多里。

明朝在“外边”长城之外，还修筑了“内边”长城和“内三关”长城。“内关”长城以北齐所筑为基础，起自内蒙古与山西交界处的偏关以西，东行经雁门关、平型诸关入河北，然后折向东北，经来源、房山、昌平诸县，直达居庸关，然后又由北而东，至怀柔的四海关、与“外边”长城相接，以紫荆关为中心，大致成南北走向。“内三关”长城在很多地方和“内边”长城并行，有些地方两城相隔仅数十里。除此以外，还修筑了大量的“重城”。雁门关一带的“重城”就有24道之多!

长城是我国古代劳动人民创造的奇迹。自秦始皇开始，修筑长城一直是一项大工程。据记载，秦始皇使用了近百万劳动力修筑长城，占全国人口的1/20!当时没有任何机械，除运土、运砖可以用毛驴、山羊能爬山的牲畜外，全部劳动都得靠人力，而工作环境又是崇山峻岭、峭壁深壑。可以想见，没有大量的人群进行艰苦的劳动，是无法完成这项巨大工程的。

万里长城的工程量，据粗略估计，仅以明朝修筑为例，若将其砖石、土方用修筑一道厚1米、高5米的大墙，可环绕地球一周有余。如果用来铺筑一条宽5米、厚35厘米的马路，那就能绕地球三四周了。如果把所有朝代所修的总计10万里来计算，则这道长墙可绕地球十几周，这条马路，可绕地球三四十周。

“因地地形，用险制塞”是修筑长城的一条重要经验，在秦始皇的时候已经把它肯定下来，司马迁把它写入《史记》之中。以后每一个朝代修筑长城都是按照这一原则进行的。凡是修筑关城隘口都是非曲直选择在两山峡谷之间，或是河流转折之处。或是平川往来必经之地，这样既能控制险要，又可节约人力和材料，以达“一夫当关，万夫莫开”的效果。修筑城堡或烽火台也是选择在“四顾要之处”至于修筑城墙，更是充分地利用地地形，如像居庸关、八达岭的长城都有是沿着山岭的脊背修筑，有的地段从城墙外侧看去非常险峻，内侧则甚是平缓，收“易守难攻”之效。在辽宁境内，明代辽东镇的长城有一种

叫山险墙、劈山墙的，就是利用悬崖陡壁，稍微把崖壁劈削一下就成为长城 了。还有一些地方完全利用危崖绝壁、江河湖泊作为天然屏障，真可以说是巧夺天工了.长城，作为一顶伟大的工程，成为中华民族的一份宝贵遗产。

China has a history of more than 5,000 years and many miracles were

created. The Great Wall is the most famous to foreigners. Many of them come to

Beijing and have a look at this great tourist sites. As the damage from

environment and human beings, this great wonder needs us to protect. So it is

important to be a polite tourist.

The Great Wall is famous as the one of the miracles in the history, it attracts the people from all around the world to witness its greatess. But according to the research, the Great Wall is missing gradually, for it suffers the damage from both nature and human being. As the environment is polluted, the acid rain often comes and destroys the buildings in the long run. What’s more, the increasing number of tourists step on the bricks, which will damage the building. More unpolited behaviors have been reported, such as people like to write down some words to remember their trip here, which disfigures the appearance of this great site. When the Great Wall disappears some day, it is the greatest pity, we are no longer have the chance to appreciate its grandness. To save this miracle, we need to behavior ourselves and protect the environment.

长城是历史上一个著名奇迹,它吸引了来自世界各地的人去见证。但根据研究,长城正在逐渐消失,因为受到来自自然和人类造成的损害。随着环境受到污染,经常下酸雨，长期破坏建筑物。而且,越来越多的游客踏在砖上,这会损害建筑。越来越多不礼貌的行为被报道出来,比如人们喜欢写一些词来纪念他们的旅行,这会让长城的外观变形。长城有一天消失了,这是最大的遗憾,我们不再有机会去欣赏它的雄壮。为了拯救这个奇迹,我们需要我们约束,保护环境。

As the saying goes, "not a true man unless he comes to the Great Wall". When I was small, I know there is a Chinese building called the Great Wall. So I very want to go to there to see. Finally, when I was three years old, my father and mother took me to the Great Wall.

Far see the Great Wall, it is like a huge dragon, hovering in the numerous mountain. Its ups and downs, and sometimes hidden in the mountains, and sometimes jumped out from the mountains, like surf on the roller.

Father hold me, go up along the steep steps, I looked at the Great Wall, it is hard to find a flat place, all of them are steep, slope, the steps of each slope and the steps of the joint has a tower. These towers like past a huge, magnificent castle.

People mountain people sea, climbing to the Great Wall. In the photo and the Great Wall, magnificent in praise of the Great Wall, people say: "well, the badaling Great Wall really real!" And enjoy the beautiful scenery. Even the foreigners come to China to see the beauty of the Great Wall. Looking down from the Great Wall, the rolling mountains, reflected in our eyes, pieces of thick forests and maturity, endless.

The Great Wall is built with large stone and ChengZhuan, tall and strong, the walls covered with square brick, square brick is flat and level. Outside the wall along the lines of "window" and the "gap".

The Great Wall, it is the world famous great buildings.

俗话说，“不到长城非好汉”。在我很小很小的时候，我就知道中国有个建筑叫长城。所以我十分想到那儿去看看。终于，在我三岁的时候，爸爸妈妈带我去了长城。

远看长城，它像一条巨龙，在无数座高山中盘旋。它高低起伏，时而隐藏在群山中，时而从群山中一跃而出，好像要冲上云霄。

爸爸抱着我，沿着陡峭的台阶往上走，我看着长城，很难找到一处平整的地方，全部都是陡峭的台阶、斜坡，每处斜坡和台阶的连接处都有一座城楼。这些城楼犹如一座座巨大的，雄伟的城堡。

爬到顶，长城上人山人海。有的在和长城合影，有的在赞叹长城的雄伟，人们都说：“嗯，这八达岭长城果真名不虚传!”，还有的在欣赏美丽的风景。连外国人都来到中国欣赏长城美。从长城上望下去，群山连绵起伏，一片片茂密的树林映进我们的眼帘，郁郁苍苍，一望无际。

长城是用巨大的条石和城砖砌成的，高大坚固，城墙上铺着方砖，方砖十分平整。城墙外沿有成排的“窗口”和“缺口”。

长城，真是世界着名的伟大建筑。

The great wall was renovated from time to time after the qin dynasty. a major renovation started with the founding of the ming dynasty in 1368, and took 200 years to complete. the wall we see today is almost exactly the result of this effort. with a total length of over 6,000 kilometers, it extends to the jiayu pass in gansu province in the west and to the mouth of the yalu river in liaoning province in the east.

What lies north of beijing is but a small section of it.a map of the great wallthe map shows the wall azuoweng from jiayu pass of gansu province to shanhai pass of hebei province. representative sections of the great wall built in ming times are situated near shanhai pass, gubeikou and juyong pass.badaling sectionthe badaling section of the great wall snaking along the mountains northwest of beijing was built at the beginning of the ming dynasty in the 14th century.

Being 7.8 metres high and 5.8 metres wide at the top on the average, it has battle forts at important points, including the corners.located 10 kilometers south of the badaling section of the great wall and built in an 18.5-kilometre-long valley, the pass has always been an important gateway northwest of beijing. the name is believed to have its origin in the workers and slaves conscripted to build the great wall in ancient times. cloud terrace, built in 1345, was originally the base of a pagoda over looking the main road of the town of the pass.

The arched gate of the terrace and the walls inside the arch are decorated with carvings. of elephants, lions, birds, flowers and heavenly kings as well as charms in six languages-sanskrit, tibe tan, phats pa (mongolian), uygur, west xia and han.mutianyu sectionthe mutianyu section of the great wall, 70 kilometers northeast of beijing, is linked to the gubeikou section on the east and the badaling section on the west. it is one of the best sections of the great wall.the mutianyu section of the great wall is crenelatted for watching and shooting at the invading enemy. some of the battle forts on the wall are as close as 50 metres apart.jinshanling sectionlocated in miyun county northeast of beijing, the jinshanling division of the great wall, like the simatai division, belongs to the gubeikou section of the colossal defence barrier.

The battlements in the jinshanling division of the great wall are built along the ridge of a mountain, where the soldiers can resist the invading enemy by taking advantage of the high terrain.a decrepit battle fort at dusk often reminds one of the battles in ancient times.

The Great Wall of China

The Great Wall of China is called the "Ten thousand Ii Great Wall" in Chinese. In fact, it s more than 6 000 kilometres long. It winds its way from west to east, across deserts, over mountains, through valleys till at last it reaches the sea. It is one of the wonders of the world.

The Great Wall has a history of over twenty centuries. The first part of it was built during the Spring and Autumn Period. During the Warring States Period, more walls were put up to defend the borders of the different kingdoms. It was during the Qin Dynasty that the kingdom of Qin united the dif ferent parts into one empire. To keep the enemy out of his empire, Emperor Qin Shi Huang had all the walls joined up. Thus, the Great Wall came into being.

The Great Wall is wide enough at the top for five horses or ten men to walk side by side. Along the wall are watchtowers, where soldiers used to keep watch. Fires were lit on the the towers as a warning when the enemy came.

It was very difficult to build such a wall in the ancient days without any modern machines. All the work was done by hand. Thousands of men died and were buried under the wall they built. The Great Wall was made not only of stone and earth, but of the flesh and blood of millions of men.

Today the Great Wall has become a place of interest not only to the Chinese but to people from all over the world. Many of them have come to know the famous Chinese saying: "He who does not reach the Great Wall is not a true man."

中国的长城

中国的万里长城被称为“万里长城”。事实上，它有6000多公里长。它蜿蜒地从西向东，穿过沙漠，越过高山，穿过山谷，直到最后到达大海。它是世界奇观之一。

长城有二十多个世纪的历史。它的第一部分是在春秋时期建造的。战国时期，有更多的城墙被用来保卫不同王国的边界。正是在秦朝，秦国把帝夫的发福部分统一为一个帝国。为了把敌人赶出他的帝国，秦始皇把所有的城墙连在一起。于是，长城诞生了。

长城的宽度足以让五匹马或十个人并排走。沿着墙的是瞭望塔，士兵们常常在那里守望。当敌人到来时，在塔上点燃了火作为警告。

在古代没有任何现代机器的情况下，很难建造这样一堵墙。所有的工作都是手工完成的。成千上万的人死了，被埋在他们建造的城墙下。长城不仅是由石头和泥土建成的，而且是几百万人的血肉所组成的。

今天，长城不仅对中国人，而且对来自世界各地的人都有兴趣。他们中的许多人都知道中国著名的谚语:“没有到达长城的人不是真正的人。”

The Great Wall is a symbol of China. Far from the majestic wall, like a long dragon winding between mountains and mountains, from shanhaiguan to jiayuguan, there are more than 13,000!

From Beijing, only a few tens of kilometers can reach the foot of the Great Wall. Ah, the Great Wall is long and long, at first sight, as if the giant snake lay on the mountains to rest. The Great Wall is made of many stone and brick. The top was paved with square bricks, and it was as neat as a broad road, and five or six horses could walk abreast. Outside walls along the rows of buttress has two meters high, above the square at the mouth and the nozzle, for observation and shooting, and on the top of the wall, a ChengTai every few hundred meters - ancient war can mutual echo. The Great Wall is not a single wall, but a complete engineering system composed of walls, enemy buildings, guancheng, pierburg, camp city, wei place, town tower, and other fortifications.

Standing on the Great Wall, it is natural to think of the ancient working people who built the Great Wall. If you look at the stone, it weighs two or three kilograms. There were few tools at that time, and it was only by the hands of countless people on the shoulders of countless people, and one by one, they lifted up the steep mountains. The blood sweat and wisdom of the working people, the Great Wall of the Great Wall, which has not been seen before, is not seen. Such an ambitious project is a great miracle!

Do you know which building is the greatest in China? I think it is the Great Wall.It was built about 2000 years ago. It is about 6000 kilometers long. The width of the Great Wall is between 4 and 5 meters. The height of it is between 6 and 7 meters.

你知道中国最伟大的建筑是什么吗？ 我认为是长城，建于2000多年前， 有6000多米长。长6-7米4-5宽。

You may ask how the people were able to build the Great Wall. Yes, there were no machines helping them to build easily. They used their hands, arms, legs and feet. Although it is not easy to build the Great Wall, the people in history have already finished it. That’s amazing, isn’t it?

你可能会问人们是怎么建造长城的呢。是的没有机器来帮助古人建造，他们用手，胳膊， 腿以及脚来建造。尽管建长城不容易，但是历史上的人已经完成了。 这很神奇不是吗

Now the Great Wall is a famous building. Many tourists from China or other countries are attracted to visit it. It has been a place of interest.

现在长城是一座注明的建筑物，许多来自中国和其他国家的游客被吸引来参观它。 它已经成为名胜古迹。

The Great Wall is the sign of China. It is the pride of all the Chinese.
