The Great Wall 长城
When you open a map of China, you are sure to see a line across the
northern China. It’s one of the most amazing wonders of the world.
People call it the Great Wall of China. For thousands of years, the
Great Wall stood there to keep out “enemies” from the north.
Workers in ancient times used earth and stones to build the wall. To
help soldiers quickly send messages, the ancient people designed
some watchtowers on the wall. This shows the wisdom and hard work
of the Chinese people. What’s more, the wall is also important for
trade. It protected trading routes such as the Silk Road. Today, you
24

s T-shirts. It is not just a place of interest but also a symbol of the
nation.
当你打开中国地图时，肯定会看到一条横贯中国北方的线条。它是世界上最令人
惊叹的奇迹之一。人们称之为中国长城。
数千年来，长城一直矗立在那里，抵御来自北方的“敌人”。古代的工人用泥
土和石头建造了这座城墙。为了帮助士兵快速传递信息，古人在城墙上设计了一
些瞭望塔。这体现了中国人民的智慧和辛勤劳动。此外，长城对贸易也很重要。
它保护了丝绸之路等贸易路线。如今，你可以在电影、书籍中，甚至在人们的T
恤上看到中国长城。它不仅是一处名胜古迹，更是中华民族的象征。

I had a wonderful holiday last week. I traveled to America with my
family. We visited the Yellowstone National Park. It’s America’s
first national park, and it sits in the south-west part of the country.
The park is famous for its beautiful views. It covers about 9,065
square kilometers. There are high mountains, big rivers, hot springs,
thick forests, flat grassland, and lots of wild animals in the park. I like
the natural landscape so much. It’s also a great place to relax. I
enjoyed this amazing holiday. I hope I will visit some other places one
day.
