鸟瞰中国-ChinafromAbove(上)_9.RiceTerraces

Lesson 9. Rice TerracesI. Script1533 miles away in southeast Yunnan, the locals have their own agricultural mountain to overcome--how to grow China?s greatest staple: rice. Here there?s plenty of water, but stopping it draining away is the problem.Thirteen hundred years ago the local Hani people miraculously transformed the landscape. To grow their crops, they hand carved rice paddies into the mountains to trap the water.“ We are able to enjoy such blessed lives todaythanks to our ancestors?hard work and endurance. ”Rising above 6000 feet and spreading over 30086 miles lager than the size of New York city, the terraces harness the power of the mountain?s natural ecosystem.“The local here have a saying:,the higher the mountains, the higher the water source?.The water stored in forests forms natural reservoirs.”It acts like a giant recycling machine. The water evaporates from the river valleys to form fog and cloud. The clouds are then trapped by the mountain forests, and then rainfalls and flows back down through the terraces in a never ending cycle.“ We are deeply connected to the terracesBecause. of the terraces, we are able to have food, clothing and shelter. The terraces are the foundation from which we are able to reproduce and survive. And they symbolize the strength and the spirit of the tribe. ”This type of wet-field agriculture was invented in China. And using these ancient farming traditions passed down through the generations, is how China feeds the biggest population on earth.I I .Translation两千五百公里外，东南部的云南省，当地的人们在发展农业上有其独特的艰难险阻 --即如何种植中国最重要的主食，大米。

Lesson 19 The Beach HolidayI. ScriptThe Chinese New Year takes place at the start of spring. For the new urban middle-class, the summer brings a new western-style holiday into their calendar, the beach holiday. And for the many landlocked Chinese, traveling to far-flung seaside resorts is not an option. The answer creates the world‟s largest artificial beach.800 miles inland from coastal China, the new Chinese middle class like to spend their leisure time by the water without having to travel miles to get to the beach. This artificial beach resort can hold up to 10,000 visitors. So successful, it‟s become a unique attraction in its own right and now draws visitors from as far and wide as Beijing 875 miles away. “We are friends who often travel together.”“Other friends recommended this place to us. We did more research on the internet and found out that the waters are good for our body and skin. Women at our age are very concerned about our skin. ” It‟s not just an artificial sea resort. There‟s one of the world‟s biggest indoor swimming pool here too. A giant wave machine is its main attraction. The Chinese name for this incredible sight is dumpling soup. “That was too exciting! We have not experienced something like this in decades. It‟s like going back to the time when I was in my twenties. This place is a children‟s playground. It allows us to relive our childhood! ”When the Chinese aren‟t splashing out on beach holidays, they‟re turning to television and cinema for their entertainment. China‟s movie m arket is now the world‟s second-largest with tens of thousands of cinema screens and homegrown production is booming.I I.T r a n s l a t i o n中国农历新年始伊始于春初。

Lesson 2. XishuangbannaI. ScriptIn the far southwest, bordering Myanmar and Laos, is Xishuangbanna known forits great river，home to the ancient Dai people. They observe a different calendar tothe rest of China，and in April celebrate their own version of the new year in a unique way. The festival all revolves around water. At this their hottest time of the year, it all begins with an epic 2000-year-old Dragon Boat Race.“I am Yan Honghan from Man Ching Village. We are preparing to head to theriver to take part in the yearly Dragon Boat Competition. This year the boat from our village is the largest among all the participants. We also have the most hands on deck. We are confident that we will win the race this year.”The whole festival kick starts in a distinctly Chinese Way with a bang. Firstprize is given to the fastest boat and that can be achieved with great wisdom and style. You could call it “showboating”.“Everyone has to follow the rhythm and tempo of the drummer. He will guide everyone to r ow in unison. Otherwise, there will be chaos and confusion.”Unfortunately, this year Yang’s boat was on the losing side.“I will definitely take part again next year. Because the dragon boat race is something every Dai man should take part in.”　The festival continues the next day with the main event, perhaps the most epicwater fight on earth. Some 100,000 people gather here for the battle. You could sayit’s the ultimate Waterloo. Soaking your opponents on this grand scale has a religious to wash away the sorrows to past year and welcome the new. A tradition basis, it’shanded down for nine hundred years. By dusk the sorrows of the previous year have been well and truly washed away.As night falls the mighty Lancang River is host to one final ritual. Lightinglanterns has long been a Chinese tradition to ward off ghosts.I I.Translation在遥远的西南，毗邻缅甸和老挝，坐落着一个以其大河闻名的城市--西双版纳。

鸟瞰中国-China from Above（下）The Future Is NowTranslation中国，一个在二十一世纪开篇之际正经历一场新的文化革命的国家。

这次史诗般的空中旅程，将会展现一个日新月异的国家。

数百万的人为追求更好的生活而迁移到特大城市之中，其建筑速度开创记录，人工奇迹崛起于华夏大地的锦绣河山之上，饱含前沿科技的运输系统源源不断地投运，以满足两亿往返穿梭的中国人的需求。

中国的影响范围甚至延伸到了地球的轨道。

中国经历了前所未有的变化。

历经几个世纪的蛰伏，中国开始惊艳世界。

这绵延五千年的古老文明，突飞猛进。

在过去的三十年里，现代化速度超过世界上任何一个国家。

这飞速发展的核心地带，正是此城——上海。

这是如今中国最繁华的城市、金融中心、世界上最繁忙的港口。

两千四百万上海居民，说着他们自己的方言，依靠世界上最大的交通运输系统之一，往返穿梭。

正是这些拔地而起的摩天大楼，才真正吸引了全世界的目光。

其中也包括这样一个人：他毕生的工作就是记录这物换星移。

“这个城市建筑摄影对我来说呢，它既是工作，又是一个自己的爱好，是一种对于城市的一份情感。

”郑宪章花了二十年，以拍摄记录雨后春笋般崛起于上海的摩天大楼。

在1993年拍摄的这张照片里，上海几无摩天大楼，但是到了2014年，上海的摩天大楼数目已赶上东京。

“每次站在这个地方看，既看到城市的发展，又看到城市的文化、城市的历史。

这边是全新的，那边呢是我们的一些百年建筑。

从这个角度看过去，实际是看到一个城市的对比。

它是在发展，但是呢，很多好的那种传统的建筑文化的东西，它也在非常好的保留之中。

我今天拍的所有的照片，将来都是一个历史，这个呢是一个很有意义的东西。

”这种城市文化进程遍及整个中国,目前有六亿多人口分布在六百五十六个城市中，他们将促成与芝加哥同等规模城市的诞生，一年一座。

驱动城市爆炸性扩张所需的人力来自于辽阔中国的农村落后地区。

到2030年，预计有三亿五千万人，相当于美国人口总量，将会从农村迁移到城市。

• Strengths：Wind power is a clean source of energy.The cost of wind power is lower than the generator. Wind power can protect land and ecology.Wind power is a renewable energy,and is very environmentally friendly. • Weaknesses: Wind power needs a lot of land to build wind farms. Now the wind power generation is still immature, there is considerable room for development.

鸟瞰中国-China from Above(上)(下)(翻译完整版)

鸟瞰中国-China from Above（上）The Living PastTranslation源远流长中国，一片广袤的土地，有着世界上最多元的文化，正绽放着前所未有的光芒。

这次史诗般美妙的空中之旅会向我们诉说：古老传统、工业工程、农业文明和自然奇景是如何描绘了当今中国的可爱面容。

在蛰伏了几个世纪以后，中国开始惊艳全世界。

中国拥有近十四亿人口，百分之九十二是汉族。

但在三百六十万平方英里的土地上仍生活着五十五个少数民族，说着一百二十种鲜活的语言。

这次旅行将跨越华夏广袤大地的山川和沙漠、河流和森林，向世界展示只有现今才开始闪耀的复杂文化的隐藏魅力。

在遥远的西南，毗邻缅甸和老挝，坐落着一个以其大河闻名的城市--西双版纳。

这是古老傣族人的家园，他们的日历计法与中国的其他部分不同。

在四月他们用一种独特的方式庆祝自己的新年。

整个节日以水为核心，在这一年中最火热的季节，拉开帷幕的是拥有两千余年传统的赛龙舟。

“我是曼听村的杨宏函，现在我们准备去那个江边，一年一度的那个划龙舟比赛。

我们这个村子里面的船，应该可以说是比赛船里最长的，可以差不多可以坐一百多个人。

然后今年我们力争拿到第一，打败去年的第一拿到第一名。

”伴随有鲜明中国气息的爆竹声，节日拉开帷幕。

头奖将给最快的船，夺冠需要极大的智慧和健美的形态。

你可以称其为“龙舟竞艺”。

“全部听那个敲锣的时候，一响一划嘛。

就是锣声一响就划一下，要不然就全乱了。

”遗憾的是，今年杨的船铩羽而归。

“明年我一定会来，因为这个划龙船应该说是每个傣族男人都应该参加的。

”节日第二天进入主题，或许这是世界上最声势浩大的水仗。

大约十万人为了打水仗聚集在这里，你可以称它为超级水战。

这场声势浩大的互相泼水有一个虔诚的目标，那就是洗净过去一年的悲伤，迎接美好的未来。

这个传统延续了九百多年。

日薄西山，先前的悲伤苦痛已被彻底洗净。

夜幕降临，澜沧江迎来了最后的仪式。

放飞孔明灯是有着悠久历史的中华传统，可以驱鬼祈福。

鸟瞰中国-China from Above(下)The Future Is Now(词汇、脚本、翻译)

鸟瞰中国-China from Above（下）The Future Is NowScriptChina, a nation undergoing a new cultural revolution at the dawn of the 21st century. This epic journey from the air will reveal a nation in transition. As millions migrate for new lives to mega cities being built at record pace, engineering marvels rise across China‟s epic landscape, and cutting-edge transport systems roll out to meet the demands of 200 million people on the move. China‟s reach even extends to earth‟s orbit.It‟s a country experiencing unprecedented change. After centuries in seclusion, China is now revealed.A five thousand-year-old civilization in a hurry. Over the last three decades, it has modernized faster than any other country. At the heart of this transformation is one city-----Shanghai. It's now China‟s most popular city, its financial hub and the world's busiest port.The 24 million Shanghai residents speak their own dialect and travel around on one of the biggest transportation systems in the world. It's the rapid increase of its skyscrapers that's really caught the world's imagination, including one man whose life's work has been to recall this transformation."To me, cityscape photography is a job as well as a passion. It expresses my affinity for the city." ZhagXianzhen has spent 20 years photographing the rapidly evolving skyline of Shanghai. In 1993, this photo captured Shanghai with almost no skyscrapers, but by 2014, it had as much as Tokyo city."Standing here you can see the city's development and its culture and history. On this side are the new buildings. Century-old buildings are over there. From here, what you are seeing are the contrasts within a city. It may be growing but it is also preserving its heritage very well. All the pictures I take today will one day be a historical recording. This is very meaningful to me.This urban transformation spread across China over 600 million people now living in 656 cities, they are building the equivalent of the city the size of Chicago every year. The manpower required to drive this urban explosion has come from the rural backwaters of this vast nation.By 2030, 350 million people, the population of the United States, are expected to move from the countryside to the cities. An exodus that dwarves the 19th century Industry Revolution of Europe and America. Here the modern and the ancient often collide in these chaotic cities and ancient Chinese traditions are hard to shake off.Interviewee1:”Today is QingmingFestival, we‟re all filled with deep emotions in our hearts as we head towards Fun Shou Garden to pay respects to our deceased ancestors.”The lee family is joining more than three million people in Shanghai on a pilgrimage to pay respects to their dead. It‟s called tomb sweeping. Traveling to their relatives graves was once an easy task from rural towns and villages, now millions have to exit their new urban suburbs along congested trunk routes ,causing chaos.I nterviewee2:”During this time each year we dispatch police choppers to the various cemeteries so we can monitor the traffic and relay information to the ground traffic police. ”Interviewee3:”I‟m at sector S32 cemetery site right now, the level of traffic congestion is critical.”Tomb sweeping literally involves cleaning and restoring family grave stones, paying spiritual respect to their deceased elders.Interviewee1:”The idea of filial piety and paying your respects has been an important part of Chinese Confucian society since the ancient times. People are usually too busy, so it is great we have a public holiday as it allows them to pay remembrance to their elders.”The new city dwellers are establishing thousands of new plots on the outskirts of the city where land is cheaper. But such as the demand of Shanghai residents, they are likely to run out in 15 years.Interviewee4:”We can‟t forget out roots. Our ancestors gave us a physical body and more importantly a soul. Such a tradition allows good values to be passed down to the future generations.”Tomb sweeping is a tradition being kept alive in modern cities, but it‟s dwarfed by another festival, that draws Chinese people all the way to their home villages and towns, wherever they are now, it‟s the Chine se new year. 200 million Chinese leave the cities, the biggest annual migration of people on the planet, but how do so many leave their new cities for the homes their parents and grandparents? By adopting the most advanced transportation system in the world: high-speed rail.Start in only 2007, at six thousand miles and growing. It‟s already the longest bullet train network in the world. Traveling the eight hundred mile trip from Shanghai to Beijing, used to take fourteen hours, now you can get there in just over five hours, at speeds upwards of 180 miles per hour. And for families like the Wang‟s this cutting-edge transportation, is critical for their New Year exodus.Their hometown of Qiqihar is in the far northeast a distance of 950 miles, a journey that world take 36 hours by conventional transport, but not anymore, the bullet train‟s immense speed is achieved with new electrified track across China and aerodynamic trains made from light weight composite materials.“As an engineer, I have been with China's high speed rail development from 2004 to today. It has been an exciting journey. It provides an alternative to road and air travel. Though this development, our work has transformed how we Chinese commute.”In the end the Wang's annual day-and-a-half trip is shortened to 15 hours. “The journey may have been long, but it feels short in my heart. Seeing the snow outside reminds me of the times I spent with my parents celebrating new year. It is a very happy feeling.” “Me and his mother and even his aunt really miss them. They have been gone for too long. Now that they are back for the new year. We are very happy to be together as one family again.”The Chinese New Year takes place at the start of spring. For the new urban middle-class, the summer brings a new western-style holiday into their calendar, thebeach holiday. And for the many landlocked Chinese, traveling to far-flung seaside resorts is not an option. The an swer creates the world‟s largest artificial beach.800 miles inland from coastal China, the new Chinese middle class like to spend their leisure time by the water without having to travel miles to get to the beach. This artificial beach resort can hold up to 10,000 visitors. So successful, it‟s become a unique attraction in its own right and now draws visitors from as far and wide as Beijing 875 miles away. “We are friends who often travel together.” “Other friends recommended this place to us. We did more research on the internet and found out that the waters are good for our body and skin. Women at our age are very concerned about our skin. ” It‟s not just an artificial sea resort. There‟s one of the world‟s biggest indoor swimming pool here too. A giant wave machine is its main attraction. The Chinese name for this incredible sight is dumpling soup. “That was too exciting! We have not experienced something like this in decades. It‟s like going back to the time when I was in my twenties. This place is a chi ldren‟s playground. It allows us to relive our childhood! ”When the Chinese aren‟t splashing out on beach holidays, they‟re turning to television and cinema for their entertainment. China‟s movie market is now the world‟s second-largest with tens of thousands of cinema screens and homegrown production is booming.To feed this hunger for entertainment that was denied to them for decades, south of Shanghai in Zhejiang province, a massive complex has been built. China‟s answer to Hollywood-Chinawood. This 6400 acre outdoor film set is now the world‟s biggest.Chinese history is being retold for Chinese audiences like the Hollywood studios the 1940s and 50s. Giant backlots reproduce key periods in Chinese history. It‟s spread over 10 square miles, around twice the size of Beverly Hills, and consists of 13 shooting bases.Hollywood had westerns,Chinawood has its own wild west, dynastic dramas and high-octane martial arts movies.Wang Ying is directing a new martial arts movie, "I first started in martial arts school before enlisting at Shaolin Temple. I was too young, I went because my familytold me to go. It was tough and I wanted to go home. But after training for a few years and going for competitions, I developed a passion that endures until today." As a graduate of the Shaolin Temple, Wang Ying brings authenticity to his action movies-a modern twist to an ancient martial arts tradition.Wang Ying said，"We will first film the actors‟ close ups, but the fight sequences will be done by our stuntmen. Our stuntmen will wear this harness and then be hauled up into the air. This requires professional training. Like how to maintain your posture amongst others. The challenge is coordination. If the coordination is off, our stuntman may fall and injure himself."With annual box office receipts reaching almost 5 billion dollars and 13 new cinemas opening everyday, China‟s demand for films will continue to grow like the rest of nation.In 10 years, China will have over 200 cities with more than a million residents, And 8 mega cities with over 10 million, to deliver enough power to run these cities requires the building of the biggest high-voltage transmission network on earth. China‟s rampant growth has outstripped this nation‟s infrastructure, housing nearly 1.4 billion requires huge engineering projects. In the southeastern China is Lishui, Zhejiang province. The workers here are installing an ultra high-voltage cable network that will run for thousands of miles across China‟s rugged interior.“I have been working in thi s field for 9 years. It can be dangerous due to the heights we have to scale. During rainy days, the cables can get very slippery. Strong winds can also blow us off.” Each tower is located on a precipitous mountain ridge. Xu‟s place of work is a further 213 feet above that. “If this spacer is not installed properly, if a typhoon hits for instance, the cables may collide and cut each other off, causing the steal towers to collapse. This is because the cables provide a traction that keeps the towers in balance. If the cables snap, the towers will not be able to withstand the resulting tension.”The ultra high-voltage cable network is one solution to China‟s power generation problems. In China, the distances between some cities and power plants are vast. Energy is lost the longer, electricity travels along normal power lines. This newsystem transmits five times the capacity of the old electricity grid. When completed this integrated electric highway is set to stretch from more than 12,000 miles, half of the ear th‟s circumference.To provide the energy needed to power China‟s growth means supplying the nation‟s power plants with vast quantities of fossil fuels. This is where another innovative engineering project comes in. This container ship as long as three football pitches, is not carrying shoes or smart phones to the west, it‟s transporting liquid natural gas to the rest of China.“Constructing this ship requires precision from its structure to its internal fittings, especially its cargo hold and cargo management devices. Because it is more complex than other ships, in terms of its mechanisms and components.” Liquid natural gas has to be stored at minus two hundred and sixty degrees Fahrenheit more than three times as cold as the Antarctic winter, capturing this much gas at high pressure is a complex and dangerous engineering task.“The fact that we are able to build this, an LNG carrier, one of the world‟s complex ships, proves we have reached a global milestone in engineering.” China‟s unrelenting growth has produced a negative impact that affects the health of the majority of its people. It has the worst pollution levels on our planet. To replace fossil fuels Chinese engineers are in a race against time to build giant wind farms.China‟s rapidly-growing cities have caused pollution on a scale not seen in history, coal and car pollutants often produce a permanent twilight in Shanghai, Beijing and other cities. Sunlight is often unable to pierce the glue, even plants struggle to photosynthesis of on the worst days.In the far northwestern province of Xinjiang, they‟re employing a two thousand-year-old invention to harness the unusual climactic conditions across these enormous planes wind power.This modern wind farm alone has 300 turbines spreading across 50 miles.These giant wind farms are quickly coming online.China may have started late when it comes to wind energy.But since 2006，our production capability has been increasing rapidly.China can now power 110 million homes by harnessing the electricity generating power of thewind and in just five years it plans to double that. But the Space Age composite materials have to withstand extreme conditions.Windblades,some as long as two hundred feet have to cope with temperature swings of 130 degrees and hurricane-force winds.We are currently conducting the fatigue test. The fatigue test simulates the equivalent of 20 years of usage on an epic feat in itself.The very wind that will be converted into precious electricity will make the raising of three 6 ton blades 230 feet in the air，extremely hazardous.It's a massive and yet precise operation for engineers.With the 32 to structure , dangerously exposed a sudden gusts of wind.They have to get the angle and positioning just right before the tower and turbine slot together just so.Incredibly,two man stand in the docking head 230 feet up to help the blades slot in.Higt-tech projects are not the only solution to China‟s burgeoning demands.To China‟s burgeoning demands.The South China Sea is a natural resource being used to sustain the growing millions .This tiny inlet of Hainan Island is key to one of China‟s biggest supply problems .Their love of SeafoodAround this island they use an ancient practice that produces fish without a single fishing line and boat.Instead they farm the fish that‟s normally caught at sea.This is the floating village of Sanduao Here they‟ve created hundreds of fish farms floating in the salt water .It‟s a centuries-old settlement .That …s home to more than 8,000 people .Over generations they have built a self-sustaining village.Fashioned out of bamboo and wood.With its own post office police station convenience stores restaurants and Medical Center .The tropical area has the deepest ice-free natural harbor in the world.And a year-round warm climate .Making it suitable for breeding fishSange is a sixth-generation Tanka Tanka who breeds fish commercially here.My father used to teach us fishing techniques and what fish to catch.Fishing out on the sea was tough.So my father decided to rear fish instead .This is the grouper,currently our most valuable fish.My children like rearing seafood.They too prefer breeding stock than fishing out on the sea.China‟s large interior allows for engineering project to be rolled out on a grand scale. The Tibetan Qinghai plateau five times the size of Spain is known as the roof of the world. The thin air and high-altitude means it receives incredible amounts of solar radiation. An ideal place for one of the world‟s largest solar parks. This sea of photovoltaic panels generates enough energy to power an average city. This will become critical for China as demand is ever-increasing.This is the coastal city of Shenzhen, in southeast China. Thirty-five years old , this was a small town with a population of 300000 people. 12 million people live here now, feeding the largest manufacturing base in the world. Nearly 700 million Chinese live in cities now.Shenzhen also suffe rs high levels of pollution, their problem isn‟t coal power stations and factions .but the three million vehicles congesting the roads. “Cars are the main source of pollution in Shenzhen as there are very few factories. If the city can solve the car proble m . It can solve the problem of emissions” the city solution is to build a huge fleet of electric buses, fully charged, these zero-emission machine run for 150 miles. “I came to Shenzhen in 2006,back then there weren‟t so many cars and traffic wasn‟t as co ngested. Now, maybe because of the rapid development everyone wants to buy a car. But traffic jams are an everyday fact of life in Shenzhen, it is just like eating, you have to have it.” electric vehicle are not new, but the scale of implementation is 3000buses operate throughout the city, all are controlled from the central computer under the command of Yanguangxian. “ this room is the central motioning station for all our electric vehicles ,we have 74 charging deep spots across Shenzhen. On this screen, each blue dot represents a Vehicle we can monitor every single bus and depot.” new technology is key to not only the transport systems in china cities, but also to transporting the Chinese to places beyond the confines of china and even our planet.New technological advances have seeing them enter the space race with the US and Russia for the first time. China has entered the space race from the first Chinese astronaut to walk in space in 2008. Now they are building their own space station. Back on earth in Xinglong near the capital of Beijing the Chinese are also mappingtheir heavens with high-tech telescopes. After all, they were among the planet‟s first astronomers.This is the LAMOST telescope, an incredibly powerful telescope designed to capture wide sw ings of space. When fully operational, it‟ll become the world‟s most powerful telescope of its class. It will map 10 million stars in our galaxy and a million other galaxies beyond. But even LAMOST will soon be dwarfed by one of China‟s latest engineering marvel.1112 miles southwest in the mountains in GuiZhou, China is building a telescope that will take another cosmic leap into the future. With a diameter of 1600 feet, it‟ll be more than one and a half times as big as the world‟s largest telescope. This gargantuan eye for the night sky will see extra planetary transmissions one thousand light years away.During the Song Dynasty in the year 1054, Chinese astronomers discovered a star, That went supernova in a flash of white light. When this telescope is complete, maybe our first target is to look at star again. It will be a way of connecting our future, present and ancient past, The chief scientist Prof Nan Rendong says.For the telescope to operate effectively, it‟s located in a remote area with no electronic interference or noise pollution. But the engineers are working at the very edge of what‟s possibleZhang Guoqiang, the engineer, says, We are like tiny spiders trying to weave a 500 meter wide web, this web has over 6000 joints and weights over 1500 tonnes. If a single joint is not installed in place properly, we will not be able to achieve the shape we need. The biggest risk is that I have over a hundred workers at a height of 60 meters and above. It‟s an unimaginable risk. You may think tightrope wal kers have a risky job, but my workers are treading tightropes every day. We engineers do not like to build projects that are too big as they are very difficult. But when faced with natural conditions that force us to build something this big, we are willing to do it because we are always looking to challenge ourselves. We want to find out whether we can do it and how well we can do it. China is now well and truly part of a new space race and efforts to understand the origins of our universe.It‟s a nation t hat until recently was closed off to the world that has transformed itself in incredible with ways . From a rural society into the worlds factory .cities have been built to a size and scale , not matched in any previous period in world history ,Across this visit and inhospitable land. High-tech transportation and highways are built ,at an incredible pace Engineering solutions are required to supply the huge amounts of energy that are needed to reduce pollution that‟s affecting almost half of it‟s nearly 1.4billion population .Against this ever-changing landscape millions of Chinese still observe ancient traditions and rights . Once discovering new forms of leisure and entertainment China a vast melting pot of past and present ,now revealing itself to the world .Translation中国，一个在二十一世纪开篇之际正经历一场新的文化革命的国家。

鸟瞰中国-China from Above(上)_5.Tianmenshan(词汇、脚本、翻译)

Lesson 5 TianmenshanI.Script400 miles away, deep in the heart to the Hunan province is another epic holy site. But this time formed without human hands, a natural formation shaped by the area’s unusual geology. Tianmenshan known as heavens gate cave. To get here, you must first drive one of the world’s most dangerous roads, the Tong tian Highway. Marked by 99 short bends in just over six miles, it climbs over 3,000 vertical feet.The first stop, the mountain forests of Zhangjiajie. Thousands of precarious peaks reach out up to three times the height to the Empire State Building. It’s a breathtaking mystical scene that provided inspiration for the alien landscapes of the movie Avatar, a wonder of geology that draws people from all over the world.To cope with a 30 million annual visitors, the Chinese have built the world’s highest outdoor elevator. The 100 dragons lift, ascends a vertiginous one thousand feet to the top of the jutting stones.“Here, as we can see, is a layer of quartz rock. The layer at the bottom is the soft layer here. The landscape of Zhangjiajie is formed by the stacking of these two types of rocks.”To reach their final dramatic destination, the class catches the world’s longest cable way, a heart-stopping ride more than four miles long and then they climb 1999 steps to reach at last their final destination.“This is the Heaven’s Gate Cave.”This epic natural feature was seen to be a gateway to paradise.“There are many similar formations in the world. However, this is a rarity given its height. You spend a lot of energy to get up here to see such a beautiful sight. It’s definitely rewarding.”II.Translation六百四十公里外，在湖南的腹地坐落着另一个史诗级圣地。
