六,导游词
以下是一篇介绍南京玄武湖的英文导游词,供大家学习。
Hello everybody! Welcome to Nanjing. My name is Hemeng, you can call me Christine also. It is my honor
and privilege to be y our tour guide. I will spare no efforts to make you comfortable and happy during this trip. If you have some questions or want some help, please feel free to contact me.
On our way to the destination, I’d like to give you a brief introduction of Xuanwu Lake.
Xuanwu Lake is in the central-northeast part of Nanjing, it nears Nanjing Railway Station and Ji Ming T emple. It is surrounded by three mountains in three directions: the Zijing mountain to the east, the Jizhao mountain and Fuzhou mountain to the south and the Mufu mountain to the north. The Ming city wall borders the park to its south and east. The lake covers 472 hectares. Xuanwu Lake is one of Nanjing Zhongshan state-level scenic spots and an important part of the national AAAA class tourist attractions. It is the largest comprehensive park in Nanjing with the function of entertainment, leisure and exercise. So beautiful it is, Xuanwu Lake can be compared with Xihu Lake.
Now, we arrive at the gate of the park. Please get off the bus one by one, then I will show y ou around the park. Now, let’s begin our trip.
Xuanwu Lake contains five oasises, namely Huan zhou, Ying zhou, Liang zhou, Cui zhou and Ling zhou. Now we are walking along the circle-shaped road which leads us to the first oasis——Huan zhou. There are lakeside rocks and rockeries in the oasis, which shows the beauty of garden architecture in southern China. Among those rocks, the “Guany in and T ongzi”. are the most famous. They are heritages of the zhongshan amir, Xuda ,during
the Ming Dynasty. Besides,There are Lama T emple and Nuona pagoda in this part.
Please follow me! Let’s walk across this bridge, and here it is. We are now at Ying zhou. It is an oasis in an oasis and it gained its name for its beatuful cherry flowers growing all around. Every spring flowers bloom, which attracts millions of tourists.
Let’s move to next scenic spot, Liang zhou. During the Liang Dy nasty, prince Liangzhaoming built a terrace for reading in this oasis, which gave it its name. It was said that prince Liang gathered thirty thousand books and called for many scholars and talents to write essay s. At last, they worked out the first analects of poems and essay s which exerted a great impact on the study and development of literature. Unfortunately, prince Liang died of uncured disease early. People named the oasis Liang zhou to honor this hard-working prince. I want to mention that Liang zhou is the most beautiful oasis among the rest four oasises. Y ou can find Lake T emple, Lansheng T ower, Lotus pavilion, T aoran pavilion and other historical sites here. You will appreciate the charms of natural landscape, especially the lotus pond.
Cui zhou is to the east of Liang zhou. It is characterized by its green pines, cypresses, bamboo and willow. Besides, Music terrace and outdoor theater can be found here.
What we are seeing now is the central oasis——Ling zhou. It borders Zhongshan mountain in the east, which gives it inviting views. There is a bird park in the oasis and it is the largest bird park in China. More tha n ten thousand rare birds are protected in this park. Y ou can not only see a large number of beautiful and exotic birds but also watch bird performances in the park. You can even feed some birds in person.
Now, it’s y our time! You can wal k around the Xu anwu Lake
freely and enjoy the scenery as you like. I hope you enjoy y our time here! Two hours later, we’ll meet at the gate of the park. By the way, please put an ey e on your luggage and don’t forget the time.
Thank you!
七.解说词
The great geographical discovery around 1500 years A.D.declaimed the historic beginning of communication and rivalry between different countries, and from then on global coordinate was got for the path of dominant countries' rises.
Over the past five hundred years, on the grand platform of mankind's modernization advance, nine cosmopolitan dominant countries arose in a row, they were Portuguese, Spain, Holland, Britain, France, Germany,
Japan, Russia and the US.
Stories on the rise and fall of a power have left relatively unique developing routes and experiences behind, which is inspiring today,influencing the future.
The majority of the historians agree that y ears around 1500 years A.D. is an important division in man's history. Man's history equals to universal history basically and really since that age.For the earlier ages,man have been living on few continents separated and independent from each other, nor did any continent's resident can exactly tell whether the earth is actually square-like or round-like,but almost every one on his own territory considered himself being settled in the center of the world.
公元1500年前后的地理大发现,拉开了不同国家相互对话和相互竞争的历史大幕,由此,大国崛起的道路有了全球坐标。
五百年来,在人类现代化进程的大舞台上,相继出现了九个世界
性大国,它们是葡萄牙、西班牙、荷兰、英国、法国、德国、日本、俄罗斯和美国。
大国兴衰更替的故事,留下了各具特色的发展道路和经验教训,启迪着今天,也影响着未来……
绝大多数历史学家认为:公元1500年前后是人类历史的一个重要分水岭,从那个时候开始,人类的历史才称得上是真正意义上的世界史。
在此之前,人类生活在相互隔绝而又各自独立的几块陆地上,没有哪一块大陆上的人能确切地知道,地球究竟是方的还是圆的,而几乎每一块陆地上的人都认为自己生活在世界的中心。

B:That‘s nine hundred and ninety-eight,exactly.
A:Woo,y ou must be joking. How can you get such an accurate number?
B:Ha,ha…… surely I am joking. Y ou silly goose.
大于1000的数字:
1001 a/one thousand (and)one
2232 two thousand two hundred (and)thirty'two
900,732,266,043
nine hundred billion seven hundred thirty'two million two hundred sixty'six thousand and forty three
英语中一千以上数字的表达方法是以三位数为单元,从高到低billion,million,thousand而依次读出的。
因此我们在听时,可以三位数三位数地记录。
试比较下面的对话:
A:Can you tell me exactly the numbers of the whole people in our country?
B:One billion four hundred thirty'two million two hundred sixty'six thousand and forty three.
A:Thank you very much.
