An Ancient Capital
威廉·亚瑟·菲利普·路易斯·蒙巴顿-温莎William Arthur Philip Louis Mountbatten-Windsor凯特·米德尔顿Kate MiddletonKey words:EcologicalHorticulturalShowcaseSponsor co-sponsorDesignateAlludeGallopAn Ancient Capital, a City of Natural Beauty.Xi'an, a modern and ecological new city in China’s central region, is rising up rapidlyThe International Horticultural Exposition will be held in Xi'an in 2011. It will be another grand international gathering hosted by China after the Beijing 2008 Olympics and Expo 2010 Shanghai, as well as an important opportunity to showcase green civilization and promote the nation's image.Upon the approval of the International Association of Horticultural Producers (AIPH) and the State Council, the International Horticultural Exposition 2011 Xi'an will be held in the Chan-Ba Ecological District, Xi'an from April 28th to October 22nd, 2011 and will last for 178 days. The International Horticultural Exposition is sponsored by the People's Government of Shaanxi Province, the State Forestry Administration,P.R China,the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade and the China Flower Association. It is also co-sponsored by the Xi'an Municipal People's Government.At present, 105 cities and organizations at home and abroad have confirmed their participation in the event, which is expected to attract 12 million visitors.The actual site of the expo is Guangyun Lake. It is located at the bank of Chan-Ba known as "Bashang". Guangyun Lake was a major port in ancient China.During the Tianbao period of the Tang dynasty (742-756AD), Emperor Xuanzong held a large-scale water transport exposition and trade fair here to encourage commerce and trade and display region’s capability in smooth water transport. This event in ancient times marked the beginning of the World expo.The expo’s theme is "Eternal peace & harmony between nature & mankind, nurturing the future earth---a city for nature, co-existing in peace".The emblem and mascot of the exposition have been designated as the “Chang’an Flower”, alluding to a famous Tang poem which reads: “Proudly I ride a galloping steed, feasting my eyes on Chang’an flowers at a fleeting speed.”The slogan of the expo is "Green Leads the Trend", advocating the concept of “Love of simplicity; Striving for a low carbon lifestyle; Returning to nature --- Making green our fashion pursuit.” The image spokesperson is Yanni, a famous star and Xi'an native.The expo covers a total area of 418 hectares (6,270 mu), 188 hectares (2,820 mu) of which is water area. The expo is based on a pattern of “two circles, two axes, and five groups”. “Two circles” refers to the main circle, th e core site containing the majority of the exhibition areas and sightseeing spots, and the sub-circle, the expanded site with support facilities such as the expo village and management center.“Two axes” refers to two landscaping axes, with north-south as the main axis and west-east as the sub-axis.“Five groups” includes Chang'an Park, Creativity Park,Five-Continent Park, Sci-tech Park and Experience Park.The main building includes Chang'an Tower, Greenhouse, Theme Pavilion and the Guangyun Entrance.The Five Major Horticultural Scenic Spots are the Chang'an Flower Valley, Colorful Plants from Qinling Mountains, Flowers along the Silk Road, Overseas Collections and Flower Rainbow over the Ba River.The Three Characteristic Zones refers to Romance by the Ba River, Southeast Asian Street and European Avenue.We sincerely welcome visitors from all around the world to learn about, support and take part in this expo.Together, let’s look forward to 2011. We'll see you in Xi'an at the International Horticultural exposition!Key words:1.mow down 割倒;摧毁;残杀2.unaccounted for 下落不明的;未予解释的3.a list of 一览表,清单;一列1.pulverize vt. 粉碎;使成粉末;研磨2.whatsoever pron. 无论什么3.illustrate vt. 阐明,举例说明;图解This is Minamisanriku, Japan, about three miles from the Pacific Ocean. Never in my career of covering natural disasters have I seen a town so utterly pulverized. Just completely mowed down.But this is not from the earthquake. This is from the tsunami. And we know that because this is where the water stopped on its way from the ocean. If you go to a half-mile of here, a half-mile to the west, there's absolutely no damage whatsoever in the nearby neighborhoods. But here, there's nothing left. We see cars, we see trucks, we see motor homes, trees, personal belongings of people all over the place. And they come from all over this town of 20,000 people. Now, there are still thousands of people unaccounted for. That doesn't mean they're all dead. It doesn't mean they're all hurt. It's hard to keep track of people. But the fact is, there are still many bodies under this rubble.。
高级英语第一册第一课中文翻译
第一课中东的集市中东的集市仿佛把你带回到了几百年、甚至几千年前的时代。
此时此刻显现在我脑海中的这个中东集市,其入口处是一座古老的砖石结构的哥特式拱门。
你首先要穿过一个赤日耀眼、灼热逼人的大型露天广场,然后走进一个凉爽、幽暗的洞穴。
这市场一直向前延伸,一眼望不到尽头,消失在远处的阴影里。
赶集的人们络绎不绝地进出市场,一些挂着铃铛的小毛驴穿行于这熙熙攘攘的人群中,边走边发出和谐悦耳的叮当叮当的响声。
市场的路面约有十二英尺宽,但每隔几码远就会因为设在路边的小货摊的挤占而变窄;那儿出售的货物各种各样,应有尽有。
你一走进市场,就可以听到摊贩们的叫卖声,赶毛驴的小伙计和脚夫们大着嗓门叫人让道的吆喝声,还有那些想买东西的人们与摊主讨价还价的争吵声。
各种各样的噪声此伏彼起,不绝于耳,简直叫人头晕。
随后,当往市场深处走去时,人口处的喧闹声渐渐消失,眼前便是清静的布市了。
这里的泥土地面,被无数双脚板踩踏得硬邦邦的,人走在上面几乎听不到脚步声了,而拱形的泥砖屋顶和墙壁也难得产生什么回音效果。
布店的店主们一个个都是轻声轻气、慢条斯理的样子;买布的顾客们在这种沉闷压抑的气氛感染下,自然而然地也学着店主们的榜样,变得低声细语起来。
中东集市的特点之一是经销同类商品的店家,为避免相互间的竞争,不是分散在集市各处,而是都集中在一块儿,这样既便于让买主知道上哪儿找他们,同时他们自己也可以紧密地联合起来,结成同盟,以便保护自己不受欺侮和刁难。
例如,在布市上,所有那1些卖衣料、窗帘布、椅套布等的商贩都把货摊一个接一个地排设在马路两边,每一个店铺门面前都摆有一张陈列商品的搁板桌和一些存放货物的货架。
讨价还价是人们习以为常的事。
头戴面纱的妇女们迈着悠闲的步子从一个店铺逛到另一个店铺,一边挑选一边问价;在她们缩小选择范围并开始正儿八经杀价之前,往往总要先同店主谈论几句,探探价底。
对于顾客来说,至关重要的一点是,不到最后一刻是不能让店主猜到她心里究竟中意哪样东西、想买哪样东西的。

西安和秦始皇陵兵马俑的英文介绍
西安和秦始皇陵兵马俑的英文介绍Xi'an, the ancient capital of China, is a city steeped in history and cultural significance. It is home to one of the most remarkable archaeological discoveries of the 20th century - the Terracotta Warriors of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum. This vast underground army, created to guard the first emperor of a unified China in the afterlife, has captured the imagination of people around the world.The story of the Terracotta Warriors begins with the rise of the Qin Dynasty, which unified China for the first time in 221 BCE under the rule of Qin Shi Huang. As the first emperor, Qin Shi Huang was determined to leave an enduring legacy and began construction on an elaborate mausoleum to house his remains and serve as his eternal resting place. The scale of this project was truly staggering, with the mausoleum complex covering an area of over 56 square kilometers and containing a vast underground city, complete with palaces, stables, and an entire army of life-sized terracotta soldiers.The Terracotta Warriors were discovered by chance in 1974 by a group of farmers digging a well near the city of Xi'an. What theyuncovered was a breathtaking sight - row upon row of meticulously crafted terracotta figures, each one unique and lifelike, with distinct facial features, expressions, and poses. The discovery of this underground army was a revelation, shedding new light on the grandeur and ambition of the Qin Dynasty and the remarkable achievements of its first emperor.The Terracotta Warriors are divided into several distinct pits, each one containing a different aspect of the emperor's army. The largest and most impressive is Pit 1, which houses over 6,000 soldiers, archers, and chariots, all arranged in perfect battle formation. The attention to detail in the craftsmanship of these figures is truly astounding, with each soldier possessing unique facial features, hairstyles, and expressions, as if they were real individuals rather than mass-produced replicas.Pit 2, on the other hand, is dedicated to the cavalry and chariot units, with over 1,300 terracotta horses and 130 chariots. The horses are depicted in various poses, some rearing up, others standing calmly, and the chariots are equally detailed, with intricate carvings and fittings. The level of realism and attention to detail in these figures is a testament to the skill and artistry of the craftsmen who created them.In addition to the soldiers and horses, the Terracotta Warriors alsoinclude a number of other figures, such as acrobats, musicians, and officials. These figures provide a glimpse into the complex social and cultural hierarchy of the Qin Dynasty, with each figure representing a different role or status within the emperor's court.The significance of the Terracotta Warriors extends far beyond their aesthetic and historical value. They represent a profound and deeply personal statement of power and legacy, a physical manifestation of the first emperor's desire to maintain his authority and influence even in the afterlife. The sheer scale and complexity of the mausoleum complex, with its underground city and army of terracotta soldiers, is a testament to the ambition and vision of Qin Shi Huang, and a remarkable example of the engineering and artistic achievements of ancient China.The discovery of the Terracotta Warriors has also had a profound impact on our understanding of the Qin Dynasty and the development of Chinese civilization. The level of detail and craftsmanship in the figures has provided valuable insights into the technology, social structure, and cultural practices of the time, and has sparked a renewed interest in the study of ancient Chinese history and archaeology.Today, the Terracotta Warriors are a major tourist attraction, drawing millions of visitors to Xi'an each year. The site has been carefullypreserved and protected, with ongoing excavation and research efforts to uncover more of the mausoleum complex and to better understand the significance and legacy of the Terracotta Warriors. For many, the experience of standing before these awe-inspiring figures, each one a unique and lifelike representation of the emperor's army, is a powerful and unforgettable one, a testament to the enduring power of human creativity and the enduring legacy of the Qin Dynasty.。

6 Qin Shi Huang Di, the first emperor of unified China (221 BC), set about enlarging the settlement of Xian Yang, some fifteen miles northwest of present-day Xi'an. This town, established under earlier Qin rulers as the capital, became heavily populated, so that in 212 BC Qin Shi Huang Di decided to move his court to the south bank of the River Wei. A vast palace, the A Fang, was begun. However, the work was never completed in his lifetime, and some years later (206 BC), when the Qin Dynasty fell to the Han Dynasty, this and most of the other palaces were destroyed.
I. Text 7 The conqueror Liu Bang, first emperor of the Han, established the site of his capital only a few miles north of modern Xi'an. Some of the older palaces were restored and new ones constructed. During the time of the Western Han, imperial tombs were built, nine in the hills running down to the north bank of the river and two in the southern hills in the fork of the Chan River. 8 From about 25 AD the town went into a decline that lasted about five and a half centuries, until in 582 the emperor Wen Di of the Sui Dynasty established his capital southeast of Chang An. The town flourished and continued its development under the Tang Dynasty, so that in time it became the most important center in Asia, with a population of about a million people living in a vast, well-laid-out city protected by large walls and ramparts. The area occupied by the old city was greater than that of present-day Xi'an.
兵马俑英文简介
兵马俑英文Emperor Qin Shihuang’s Mausoleum and the Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses MuseumEmperor Qin Shihuang (259-210B.C.) had Ying as his surname and Zheng as his given name. He name to the throne of the Qin at age 13, and took the helm of the state at age of 22. By 221 B.C., he had annexed the six rival principalities of Qi, Chu, Y an, Han, Zhao and Wei, and established the first feudal empire in China’s history.In the year 221 B.C., when he unified the whole country, Ying Zheng styled himself emperor. He named himself Shihuang Di, the first emperor in the hope that his later generations be the second, the third even the one hundredth and thousandth emperors in proper order to carry on the hereditary system. Since then, the supreme feudal rulers of China’s dynasties had continued to call themselves Huang Di, the emperor.After he had annexed the other six states, Emperor Qin Shihuang abolished the enfeoffment system and adopted the prefecture and county system. He standardized legal codes, written language, track, currencies, weights and measures. To protect against harassment by the Hun aristocrats. Emperor Qin Shihuang ordered the Great Wall be built. All these measures played an active role in eliminating the cause of the state of separation and division and strengthening the unification of the whole country as well as promotion the development of economy and culture.They had a great and deep influence upon China’s 2,000 year old feudal society.Emperor Qin Shihuang ordered the books of various schools burned except those of the Qin dynasty’s history and culture, divination and medicines in an attempt to push his feudal autocracy in the ideological field. As a result, China’s ancient classics had been devastated and destroy. Moreover, he once ordered 460 scholars be buried alive. Those events were later called in history“the burning of books and the burying of Confucian scholars.”Emperor Qin Shihuang,for his own pleasure, conscribed several hundred thousand convicts and went in for large-scale construction and had over seven hundred palaces built in the Guanzhong Plain. These palaces stretched several hundred li and he sought pleasure from one palace to the other. Often nobody knew where he ranging treasures inside the tomb, were enclosed alive.E mperor Qin Shihuang’s Mausoleum has not yet been excavated. What looks like inside could noly be known when it is opened. However, the three pits of the terra-cotta warriot excavated outside the east gate of the outer enclosure of the necropolis can make one imagine how magnificent and luxurious the structure of Emperor Qin Shihuang’s Mausoleum was.No.1 Pit was stumbled upon in March 1974 when villagers of XiyangVillage of Y anzhai township, Lintong County, sank a well 1.5km east of the mausoleum. In 1976, No.2 and 3 Pits were found 20m north of No.1 Pit respectively after the drilling survey. The terra-cotta warriors and horses are arrayed according to the Qin dynasty battle formation, symbolizing the troops keeping vigil beside the mausoleum. This discovery aroused much interest both at home and abroad. In 1975, a museum, housing the site of No.1 and covering an area of 16,300 square meters was built with the permission of the State Council. The museum was formally opened to public on Oct.1, the National Day, 1979.No.1 Pit is 230 meters long from east to west, 62m wide from north to south and 5m deep , covering a total area of 14,260 square meters. It is an earth-and-wood structure in the shape of a tunnel. There are five sloping entrances on the eastern and western sides of the pit respectively. The pit is divided into eleven corridors by ten earthen partition walls, and the floors are paved with bricks.。
