英语旅游观光教案设计

这首歌的主唱Joel Hanson和担任和声的Sara Groves都是乡村歌手。Joel Hanson可以说是一位多产的原创歌手，先后曾与音乐界的Geoff Moore和Phil Keaggy等多位艺人合作过。他曾经是荣获过格莱美奖和基督摇滚音乐和平鸽奖（Dove Award）的美国福音乐队（PFR）的成员主唱和吉他手。在1997年PFR解体之后，他走上了单飞的音乐道路，但2000年PFR 又重新组合起来，并先后推出了《Captured》和《Broken》两张专辑，但是成绩并不理想，直到他与Sara Groves合作的一首单曲“Traveling Light”推出之后，才取得了轰动效果。“Traveling Light”恰如其分地反映了Joel Hanson在之前遇到的困境和后来的释怀与解脱。这首歌曲是很轻松的音乐，思绪在飘渺的旋律中尽情地放纵，往事在悠悠的曲子里隐现，动听的旋律勾起的总是最美好的回忆。就像在夕阳下，迎着柔和的阳光，卸下身上重重的行囊，奔向远方……值得回味！(Background Information)

我听之我见

你是否感觉被繁杂的生活压得喘不过气来呢？听听这首歌吧，走进歌中描述的画面，就像歌中所唱的，把双肩的重担放下，在小河边迈开你轻快的脚步，在美好的音乐中感受那久违的清凉的空气和阳光的味道吧。

2. 环游世界的9大理由

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Mark Twain

马克·吐温：从现在开始的二十多年中，比起那些已经做过的，你会越来越后悔那些你没有做过的事情。请解开系紧的船缆，驶离安全的港湾，扬帆远航吧。去探索，去梦想，去发现！

1. You will grow as a person

你将成长为一个独立的人

When you travel the world, you have the opportunity to experience different cultures and meet new people. It is inevitable that through these experiences you will learn a lot about yourself. Who you are as a person and what you want out of life might very well change.

当你周游世界时，你就有机会体验不同的文化并结识新朋友。通过这些经历，你自然而然就会更加深刻地了解自己。你就会更清楚自己是个什么样的人，你对生活的期望也很可能会改变。

2. Freedom

自由

You will enjoy a much greater sense of freedom when no one is able to tell you what to do. You are the boss. You decide where you want to go, what you want to do and how long you want to stay.

当没有人能告诉你该怎么做的时候，你将更多地感受自由。你就是生活的主宰。你决定自己要去的地方，决定要做什么，决定要待多久。

3. Simplicity

返璞归真

You will discover how much better life can be when you live it simply. No phone, email, TV, job, schedule, bills to pay; just you, your surroundings and your mind. Perfection.

你会发现简朴生活才是更好的生活。没有电话、电子邮件、电视，没有工作、行程、账单；只有你自己，你周围的环境和你的心灵。多么完美。

4. Food, Glorious Food

丰盛美食

You will have the chance to taste food from all corners of the globe. Do you like eating Chinese, Thai or Indian food? You will enjoy the food even more when you eat it from the place it originated.

你将有机会品尝到世界上每个角落的食物。你喜欢吃中国菜，泰国菜还是印度菜？当你在这些美食的家乡就餐时，那肯定是另一番享受。

5. Meet New People

结识新朋友

You will have the chance to meet new people when you travel; some interesting, some boring, and some downright crazy. Everyone has a story to tell, chances are that it will be worth listening to.

旅行中一定有机会结识新朋友；有些有趣，有些很闷，有些简直不可理喻。每个人都有自己的故事，很可能有些故事还真值得一听。

6. Nature

大自然

Instead of looking out your office window to see a hundred skyscrapers staring back at you, you will get the chance to see the world in all its natural beauty. See the deserts of Africa or the jungles of the Amazon with your own eyes instead of looking at a still image in a book.

你将有机会看到世界是多么自然美丽，而不只是透过办公室窗口看到上百座摩天大楼林立。亲眼看一看非洲的沙漠或亚马逊丛林，那不是书本上的呆板图片可以媲美的精彩。

7. Become Street Smart

学会见机行事

You might already be book smart but add street smart to your persona then there’s no stopping you;

i t’s a killer combination. Travelling teaches you many of life’s lessons and you will gain pearls of wisdom along your journey; from being able to barter, to knowing when you are trying to be conned, there are many things new places can teach you.

你可能很会读书，但要是再能有一些生存智慧，那就是完美的组合让你无往不胜。旅行会教给你生活中的许多经验教训，你一边旅行一边采集智慧之珠；从讨价还价到不受人蒙骗，每到一个新地方，你必然会有新斩获。

8. You only live once

人生只有一次

We all get a limited amount of time on this Earth, and no one knows when it will come to an end. Do you really want to stay in the same town or city your whole life, without meeting new people, tasting new foods and seeing and experiencing life as others do?

我们在这个地球上都只待有限的时间，没有人知道什么时候会结束。你真的想一生都待在同一城市或城镇，而不是像别人那样去结识新朋友、品尝新食物，去领悟和体验生活吗？

9. Coming Home

回家真好

After travelling round the world, there is nothing quite like the feeling of walking through your front door, dropping your bags on the floor, and going upstairs to sleep in your warm, comfortable bed for a day or two. As much fun as travelling can be, everyone needs a place they can call home. 环游世界后，还有什么比回家更爽的事情：径直走过前门，将行李往地板上一扔，上楼一头扎进你那温暖舒适的床上睡它一两天。尽管旅游充满乐趣，但每个人都需要一个他们称之为家的地方。

山西素有“中国古代建筑博物馆”之称。全省现存有大量明清时期的民居建筑，它们大都集中在晋中的祁县、平遥、太谷、介休一带，这些深宅大院不仅是当时富商大贾的宅第，也是显赫一时的晋商的历史见证。那我们今天参观的乔家大院就是它们其中的一个代表。

Shanxi has long been known as "ancient architecture museum of china". A great many civil houses build in Ming and Qing Dynasties have been preserved in here.they are the testimony of history of Shanxi Merchants .the Courtyard of Family Qiao that we will visit today is one of them.

乔家大院位于祁县东观镇乔家堡村，距太原54公里，乘车大约一小时就可以到达。乔家大院是一所民居建筑，是我国保存下来的最完整的一座民居建筑。占地8725㎡，建筑面积3870㎡，共6个大院，20个小院，313间房屋。1985年乔家大院被开辟成为晋中民俗博物馆，一部《大红灯笼高高挂》使得乔家大院名扬海外，2005年拍摄的《乔家大院》更是让许多人了解了乔家大院，了解了晋商。我们现在就来到了乔家大院的大门口了，我们现少停留一下。

Courtyard of Family Qiao located in Qixian County in Shanxi Province , 54 km south of Taiyuan.this is a kind of civil house ,it is the most complete civil house which is preserved in china. it occupying area of 8725 square meters, while the floorage occupies 3870 square meters. it has 6 compounds, 20 small courtyards, 313 housings.

我们看到乔家大院的门前并没有旗杆和石狮子，但是高大的院墙，足以显示出主人的威严气派。院内房屋设计的十分完美，错落有致，体现了我国清代北方民居建筑的独特风格，具有相当高的观赏、科研和历史价值。专家学者赞誉其为“北方民居建筑的一颗明珠”。因此人们常说“皇家有故宫，民家看乔家”。我们看到大门正对的这个照壁，它叫做“百寿图”是由一百个寿字构成的，在百寿图的两边有一幅对联“损人欲以覆天理，续道德而能文章”这是当时左宗棠写的，他先了主人淡泊心志，，百寿图的上方有“履和”二字，是从“端详步履由中道，怡然胸襟养太和”一句中意化出来的，体现了乔家主人的中庸思想。

There isn’t any flagpole or stone lions outside the gate, but those tall walls could show the prestige of the owner. houses in this yard was designed quite naturally perfect, it shows the characteristic style of the civil houses in north .its highly valuable in the study of history，in scientific researches, it is also valuable as a tourist resort. The specialists and scholars commend it as "a bright pearl of the civil houses in north”. there is a screen wall facing the gate of a house, we called this "zhaobi",we can see it consisting of hundred forms of the character for “shòu”,it means longevity.

大门上有一副对联“子孙贤，族将大”；“兄弟睦，家之肥”，可以看出乔家主人的最高追求，就是人丁兴旺，家庭和睦，只是致富的前提，也是富贵的归宿。进入大门后我们首先来看一下大院的简单构造图，我们面前的这条常80米的甬道，将乔家大院的六个大院分为南北两院，北院房屋大都高大，是长辈居住的地方，南面的房屋相对较低是晚辈居住的地方，大门是朝东开的，所谓“紫气东来”这个大门就是吸收祥气的。那我门一个大院一个大院来参观。

After we entry the front gate, we see the map first, there are 6 compounds in total. the houses in northern yard was tall, its the residence of elders. relatively low houses in south lived the

younger generation。

When to go

Being at a high altitude, Shanxi Province has a cold and dry climate and has an annual rainfall of between 400-600 millimeters. The province is also frequently plagued by sandstorms, especially in the spring, so it is often useful to bring along both sunglasses and a hat when visiting. Generally speaking, the province's climate is the best between May and October.

History

Shanxi is one of the birth places of Chinese civilizations with a long history and traditional culture. As early as one hundred million years ago, the ancestors of the Chinese lived and propagated in this region. Legend tells us that the Yellow Emperor, founder of the Chinese nation, once lived in Shanxi for a certain period. Today, many Neolithic sites from that period can still be seen dotted across the vast expanse of the province.

What to see

Shanxi is endowed with an abundance of cultural sites from its long history. Most of the ancient structures were built before the Liao and Song Dynasties. So it is the reason why Shanxi is often called the 'Chinese Ancient Architecture Museum'. The more obvious of these include: the Buddhist wonder of the Y ungang Grottoes in Datong City, the ancient city of Pingyao which was listed as a World Cultural Heritage site by UNESCO in 1997, the oldest and tallest ancient wooden pagoda in China, the Wooden Pagoda of Yingxian County and the remote Shuanglin and Jinci Temples, which are well worth the long journeys for the visitors.

Of course, there are a number of natural magnificent and beautiful places that can also be seen in Shanxi. The most famous of them include Wutai Mountain with the longest and most prestigious history in the four most well-known Buddhist holy lands of China, the whistling rage of the Yellow River's Kettle Spout waterfalls (Hukou Waterfalls) and one of the Five Sacred Mountains in China - Mt Hengshan.
