Wonders of the World, Part 3, Modern Wonders

VOICE ONE:This is Faith Lapidus.VOICE TWO:And this is Steve Ember with EXPLORATIONS in VOA Special English. Today, we finish our series of programs about the Wonders of the World. In earlier programs, we told about ancient structures and beautiful natural places. Today we tell about modern structures that are Wonders of the World.(MUSIC)VOICE ONE:Any list of modern wonders should include some of the buildings in the great cities of the world. An example in New York City is the Empire State Building. For many years, it was the tallest building in the world. Today, the Sears Tower in Chicago, Illinois and the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia are taller.These buildings are important to any list. However, the modern wonders we have selected have changed history. They are important because they made life safer or easier or were useful to a great number of people. We begin with two similar structures in two very different parts of the world.(MUSIC)VOICE TWO:More than three thousand years ago, an ancient king of Egypt ordered that a river be built to connect the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. This kind of man-made river is called a canal.Ancient evidence shows the work was done and a canal was built. Experts believe it was possible for small boats of that time to travel from the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea. Some evidence shows the Nile River may have been used for part of the canal. However, the ancient people of Egypt did not keep this canal in use. As years passed, the sands of the grea t deserts of Egypt closed the sm all canal.As the centuries passed, many people thought it would be a good idea to rebuild the canal. The problem was the huge cost. But the cost could not be compared to the cost of a ship that had to sail from ports on the Atlantic Ocean to ports in Asia. Ships had to sail around the Cape of Good Hope, the most southern part of the continent of Africa.VOICE ONE:A French engineer planned and directed the modern canal connecting the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. His name was Ferdinand de Lesseps. Egyptian workers began building the canal in eighteen fifty-nine.It was opened and named the Suez Canal during a ceremony on November seventeenth, eighteen sixty-nine. The Suez Canal is about one hundred sixty-three kilometers long and about sixty meters wide.The Suez Canal has been closed several times because of war or political problems. Today, the Suez Canal is still important. Ships pay money to use the canal. That money is important to the economy of Egypt. The canal saves shipping companies a great deal of time and money because it is the fastest crossing from the Atlantic Ocean to the Indian Ocean.VOICE TWO:Our next Modern Wonder of the World is also a canal -- the Panama Canal. It connects the Atlantic Ocean with the Pacific Ocean. Before it was built, ships often had to spend several weeks traveling around Cape Horn at the end of South America. Many ships were lost in great storms in that dangerous area.Spanish explorer Vasco Nunez de Balboa and his men were the first Europeans to travel through the thick jungles in Panama from the Atlantic Coast to the Pacific Coast. That was in fifteen thirteen. Panama quickly became a major shipping area for the Spanish. Their ships from the colonies in the Western Hemisphere and from Asia brought treasure to the Pacific Coast. The treasure was taken overland to the city of Portobelo on the Atlantic Side.The idea of building a way to connect the two great oceans began with the Spanish explorers. They saw the need for a canal to speed up delivery of their cargo. However, it was impossible to build. The machines needed to build something as big as a canal did not exist.VOICE ONE:In eighteen seventy-nine, a French Company tried to build a canal across Panama. It failed. The company did not have enough money to complete the project. Also, thousands of men working on the project died of the disease Yellow Fever.In nineteen hundred, an American army doctor, Walter Reed, and his research team discovered that mosquito insects carried the virus that caused Yellow Fever. They worked on methods to destroy the mosquito population.This development helped make possible an American effort to build the Panama Canal. Panama and the United States signed treaties in nineteen-oh-three and work began on the canal. More than eighty thousand men worked on the huge effort. They made a canal about eighty kilometers long from the Atlantic to the Pacific.On August fifteenth, nineteen fourteen, the ship S-S Ancon became the first ship to sail through the new canal. Today, about thirteen thousand ships pass through the canal each year. That number represents about five percent of the world's trade. Both the Suez and the Panama Canals are truly modern Wonders of the World. Both make it possible to safely move from one great ocean to another. And, both save huge amounts of time and money.(MUSIC)VOICE TWO:The two great canals we have discussed connect oceans. Our next great Wonder of the World connects land.This connecting device is called the Channel Tunnel, or "Chunnel." It connects the island that is Britain with France. It was one of the largest and most difficult construction projects ever attempted. It is a three-tunnel railroad from Calais, France to Folkestone, England. The tunnels are fifty kilometers long. They were built about forty-five meters below the earth under the English Channel. Two of the tunnels carry trains and one is used for repair work and emergencies.VOICE ONE:The idea of a tunnel connecting Britain with other nations of Europe was first proposed to the French Emperor Napoleon in the early eighteen hundreds. However it was never a serious idea. The technology to make such a tunnel did not exist. But people dream ed of such a tunnel. Crossing the English Channel by ship was often a terrible trip because of storms.Three serious attempts were made to build the tunnel. The first two failed. Political differences between France and Britain stopped the first attempt. Financial problems stopped the second.VOICE TWO:The third and successful attempt to build the Chunnel began in nineteen eighty-seven after France and Britain signed an agreement. It took seven years to finish the work. To complete the tunnels, construction workers had to move more than seventeen million tons of earth. The cost was more than thirteen thousand million dollars. The Chunnel opened in nineteen ninety-four.Today, the Chunnel is very busy. High-speed trains carry cars, trucks and passengers from Britain to France and back again. The trains are fam ous for their smooth, quiet ride. The money paid for the trip is slowly paying for the huge cost.(MUSIC)VOICE ONE:Our last modern Wonder of the World has not yet been completed. It is perhaps the largest construction project ever attempted. It is the Three Gorges Dam Project in China's Hubei Province. Some experts say it is the largest attempted construction project since the ancient Chinese built the Great Wall of China.The Three Gorges Dam is being built to produce power and control China's Yangtze River. The Yangtze is the third longest river in the world. It is famous for the terrible floods it has caused. Some reports say more than one million people have been killed in Yangtze floods in the past one hundred years.VOICE TWO:The Three Gorges Dam will not be finished until two thousand nine. Work began in nineteen ninety-three. About two hundred fifty thousand workers are involved in the project. Experts say the huge dam will cost about twenty-five thousand million dollars. When finished it will be about one hundred eighty-one meters high.The dam will create a huge lake about six hundred thirty-two square kilometers. Some critics say the dam will harm the environment and damage historical areas. More than one million people will have to be resettled before the dam is finished. The completed dam will produce large amounts of electric power. Chinese government officials say it will lead to increased economic development in cities near the dam. And China says the terrible floods caused by the Yangtze will be memories of the past.(MUSIC)VOICE ONE:This program was written by Paul Thompson. It was produced by Mario Ritter. This is Faith Lapidus.VOICE TWO:And this is Steve Ember. Join us again next week for another EXPLORATIONS program in VOA Special English.。

初一冬奥会英语作文

初一冬奥会英语作文Before the Peoples Republic of China was founded in 1949, Chinese athletes had participated in three Olympic Games but won nothing. Since 1949, China has participated in six summer and seven winter Olympics, winning 112 gold medals in summer Olympics. At the Los Angeles, Barcelona and Atlanta Olympics, China came fourth in the gold medals table, and second at the Athens Olympics. At the 2004 Olympics, China took home 63 medals, 36 of them (57.1 percent of the total) being won by young athletes; 10 of the gold medal winners were under 20 years old. This demonstrates the increasing maturity of Chinas young athletes and growing overall strength in competitive sports. So what about Beijing Olympic Games? Will we take the place of USA to be 1st? I believe so absolutely!President of the International Olympic Committee Thomas Bach announcing the winning bid to host the 2022 Winter Olympic Games at the 128th International Olympic Committee session in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on Friday.The International Olympic Committee has picked Beijing, China, as the host city for the 2022 Winter Olympic games. The committee came together in Kuala Lumpur, Friday, and picked Beijing over Almaty, Kazakhstan.The bids were voted on by a group of 85 participants. Beijing’s bidreceived 44 votes, Almaty’s received 40 votes, with one abstention.Beijing is now the first city to host both the summer and the winter Olympics.Dear Sir/Madam,My name is Li Hua. I would like to work as volunteer for 2022 Beijing-Zhangjiakou Winter Olympic Games. I’m a boy of eighteen years old from a high school. My spoken English is good and I can communicate with foreigners fluently.

I’m willing to provide the best service for every athlete in Winter Olympic Games. Therefore, I think I’m suitable for serving the Games.I would appreciate it if you could offer me the chance to be a volunteer.Thank you!I’m Li Hua, an 18-year -old boy. Having read your advertidement on the Internet for a volunteer for The 2022 Beijing-Zhangjia kou Winter Olympics, I’m writing to request the valuable opportunity to be an volunteer for it. The following are my advantages.To begain with, I have team spirit and can get along well with others, which is necessary for cooperation. In addition, I have such a good understanding /command of both English and Chinese that I can have nodifficulty communicating with foreigners.

Therefore, I believe I’m qualified for the position.Thank you for taking my application into consideration, and I’m looking forward to meeting you at your convenience.Beijing Olympic Games gives the world so many surprises, we show our new image to the world. Many Chinese heroes fought for the right to hold the Olympic Games, finally we made it. Now we are also successful in winning the right to hold the winter Olympic Games. Our insistencehelps us to make so many miracles.Beijing has become the only city to hold the summer and winter Olympic Games so far, we are so proud of it. But the road to achieve this amazing phenomenon is such tough. Early in the 1990s, we started to compete for the vote, but the world did not know our country, the judgers believed that our country was far away from the qualification. So we were rejected again and again. Thanks to the insistent effort, we won the vote and fulfilled this dream. Two days ago, we won another vote for holding the winter Olympic Games. Two times to win the rights is such inspiring news, we are creating miracle all the time.Insistent effort will bring good luck, I believe that we can creating more miracles.When news arrived in November that Beijing was bidding for the 2022 Winter Olympics, many observers in the Chinese capital briefly choked on their tea—or was that the smog?A few years removed from hosting the Summer Olympics, with virtually no winter sports tradition to speak of and bad air that gets worse when the temperatures drop, Chinas capital seemed as likely a choice to host the Winter Games as Dubai or Bankok.Eight months later, the International Olympic Committee has named Beijing, which has proposed hosting the games in conjunction with the nearby city of Zhangjiakou, as one of the three finalists for the bid, alongwith Oslo in Norway and Kazakhstans Almaty.The 2022 Winter Olympics has become known as the Olympics no one wants to host after a long list of candidates dropped their bids. Stockholm, Munich, two cities in Switzerland, Denver, Krakow and Lviv in Ukraine all pursued the idea of hosting the event to varying degrees but ultimately decided to withdraw themselves from consideration over the past few months—leaving only the three finalists.With the exception of Lviv, which cancelled its bid last week because of continuing political strife in Ukraine, most of the other drop-outs appear to have been frightened away by the specter of this years Winter Games in Sochi, which emptied Russias coffers to the tune of $51 billion and left little of value behind.Winter Olympics? A big question mark appeared in my mind. What is the "Winter Olympics"? With this question, I need to understand it well.The original full name of the Winter Olympic Games is the Winter Olympic Games. It is the largest comprehensive Winter Games in the world. The participating countries are mainly distributed all over the world, including Europe, Africa, America, Asia and Oceania. It is hosted by the International Olympic Committee. The first session has been held since 1924, and 22 sessions have been held as of 2014, once every four years. At 8 p.m. local time on February 9, 2018, the opening ceremony of Pingchang Winter Olympic Games was held. The opening ceremony took"peace" as the theme and expressed the longing for peace. Zhou Yang, Chinas three gold medalist, won the two Winter Olympic Games as the Chinese delegations flag bearer. The Korean and Korean athletes joined the Korean moon Jae in Pingchang. Kim Yeon Na, the Korean goddess of figure skating, lit the main torch platform. On February 25, 2018, the Pingchang Winter Olympic Games officially closed and Beijing took over the Olympic flag. The 24th Winter Olympic Games will be held in Beijing and Zhangjiakou, China from February 4, 2022 to February 20, 2022.Knowing this, my heart is surging. This is such exciting news. My mother said that the performance of the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympic Games and the fighting spirit of Olympic athletes in the competition have shocked the world. Now the flame of the Winter Olympic Games will be lit on this fertile land in the East. I believe every Chinese is looking forward to the arrival of the Winter Olympic Games. At the same time, it will be another opportunity to show China to the world.My thoughts cant help but leap to the venue of the Winter Olympic Games. I fantasize that I hold hands with the mascot of the Winter Olympic Games "ice pier and snow Rongrong" and swim in every corner of the Olympic venue. We galloped thousands of miles on the alpine ski resort, ran fast on the speed slide, and showed beautiful and light dancing on the figure skating rink. And ice hockey, curling, snowmobile...Just thinking about it, my heart is happy.In 2022, I hope my classmates and I will come to the competition venues of the Winter Olympic Games together, feel the power of the Olympic spirit, watch the track full of ice and snow, watch the heroic posture of athletes on the field, and feel the Olympic spirit of "peace, friendship and unity" of the motherland. As a primary school student, we should study hard and build a great motherland with our own knowledge and wisdom, Let people all over the world perceive the long history and profound heritage of Chinese culture and convey the Chinese Olympic spirit.In 2022, Beijing Winter Olympic Games and winter Paralympic Games, we are looking forward to this day!"The flower of success, people only admire her present brilliance. However, at the beginning, her bud was soaked in the tears of struggle and sprinkled with the blood of sacrifice."Because of my obsession with basketball, I like and understand all other sports more or less. When 2022 is approaching, my heart is also full of expectations for the Winter Olympic Games to be held in Beijing next year.What is the Olympics? I think it is a stage that shows the beauty of strength, will, skill and nature, as well as physical limits. It has won the favor of hundreds of millions of viewers. People are encouraged byvictory, regret mistakes and proud of participation.As I attack and defend on the basketball court, I am glad to score and sad for failure. The sweat and tacit cooperation with my teammates have always been the source of my happiness. Every serious dribbling and shooting, every running back and forth on the field, every persistence when falling behind in a big score, mutual encouragement among players, frowning eyebrows and firm eyes... Isnt that true for everyone in the Olympic field?No champion is won in comfort. When people marvel at the brilliance of athletes, they pay little attention to their daily life. Cruel training, boring persistence... However, they enjoyed it, rain or shine, went ahead bravely, sacrificed their youth and shed tears on the training ground. They forget to eat and sleep on the projects they love, and constantly work hard to get the fun of sports. They work hard for their dreams with the ideal of winning glory for the country! When the national anthem is played, all the bitterness and tiredness condense into sweet tears at this moment.Next year, in the birds nest and Zhangjiakou, these athletes who break through the cold wind, welcome the ice and snow, and sweat countless times will prove to the world that success comes from persistence.And I, an ordinary middle school student, salute you in a distantplace.Even if I am not in the sports field, I will spread the Olympic spirit. I am in the middle school entrance examination, which is a battlefield without gunpowder smoke. Just like you in the ice and snow field, you are full of passion, full of desire for victory, and constantly sweat. If you work, you will get a harvest. Over time, miracles can be created from less to more."Without some cold, the plum blossom smells sweet.". Every winter Olympic athlete is a plum blossom blooming in ice and snow. The cold wind and ice and snow are just to temper his character.In the cold snow, I will study hard, cheer for myself, cheer for you, cheer for China and cheer for the 2022 Winter Olympic Games!"Beijing!" when international Olympic Committee President Bach issued a non-standard pronunciation, hundreds of millions of Chinese people in China were boiling again! Just as Samaranch announced in Moscow 14 years ago that Beijing had won the right to host the 2008 Olympic Games, the Chinese people were immersed in selfless excitement at this moment. Beijing has become the first city in the world to host the winter and summer Olympic Games! After the meeting, Beijing Mayor Wang Anshun spoke five key words - happiness, thanks, commitment, respect and welcome.The Olympic Games is not a simple sports competition, but a beliefthat will never change. As a primary school student, maybe we cant win the gold medal for our motherland like the athletes, and we dont have the opportunity to visit the stadium and participate in the service and reception of the Olympic Games, but as long as we start now, we can also contribute to the Olympic Games!We should be a little messenger of civilization. When the Winter Olympics comes, we decorate every corner of the city with civilization and extend our ceremonial hands to welcome visitors from all over the world. Only in this way can we carry forward our national spirit and highlight our national culture.We should be a polite and good guide. People from other countries come to Beijing to watch the Olympic Games, which is the pride of our people all over the country! As "little hosts", we should say polite and cultured words and serve our guests with thousands of times of enthusiasm. For example, being a translator and helping foreign friends guide the way will certainly make foreign friends feel the enthusiasm of our Chinese people and make international friends aftertaste the soothing feeling and the taste of civilization.We should be little guards of environmental protection. We should take practical actions to realize the dream of "Green China looking forward to the Olympic Games". Start with the little things around you, dont litter, pick up the garbage, make our city blue, green, clear andrefreshing, and let foreign friends linger in our capital Beijing and Zhangjiakou.No longer wait, start now, start bit by bit, start from me, stretch out your arms to welcome our winter Olympic Games!The end of the Winter Olympics makes us proud of our country. The end of the Winter Olympics. Because our country has broken two records, and all the four gold medals in womens short track speed skating are from our country. Anyway, this is very exciting for every Chinese.I remember that the performances of Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo really surprised me. Their beautiful dancing is infatuated, and it is inevitable to win the championship. There are also the members of the womens curling team. It was their first time to participate in the Winter Olympic Games. They were still strong and did not receive the blow of the last game. They won the bronze medal, but it also made me excited. There is also Wang Meng, a member of the womens short track speed skating team. She won three gold medals alone. Its really amazing. I dont think I would have thought of such a good situation until I knew these wars.I didnt pay attention to the Olympic Games before, including the Winter Olympic Games. Just listen to my dad. Since the last 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, I think I will be excited when athletes win the championship. When the country wins the prize, he will be excited; Ifyour country doesnt win the prize, your mood will be low. I dont know why. Maybe its because Im Chinese and I have Chinese blood in my blood. I dont know how to express the mood of athletes when they win the championship. That kind of mood, only our own people can have, will also have. The wonderful performance of Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo is deeply engraved in my heart and makes me feel their wonderful technology; Although Zhang Dan and Zhang Hao made mistakes, he was still very strong to complete the later game, and did not affect the later game because of the previous mistakes.This competition makes me deeply realize that our motherland is making progress day and night.The mascot of Beijing 2022 Paralympic Games "xuerongrong", a mascot similar to lanterns, also has an English name Shuey Rhon Rhon.Today I am very happy because Xue Rongrong is coming to me. I want to take this opportunity to introduce my hometown - Fengfeng mining area.We first come to Yuanbaoshan, the landmark building in Fengfeng mining area. Yuanbaoshan has many small pavilions and trees. There are mushroom pavilions surrounded by flowers and plants, windmill pavilions made of pure wood, and Yuanbao Pavilion on the top of the mountain. There is a glittering big gold Yuanbao on it. Looking down from the top of the mountain, you can see the whole mining area. Thereis also a famous river at the foot of the mountain, called Fuyang River, which is a spring from Heilong cave. In spring, everyone looks at the beautiful scenery by the river; In summer, it becomes a paradise for children. It is the longest river in the mining area with clear bottom. It is shaded by trees on both banks, which is very beautiful. Later, xuerongrong will introduce Pengcheng Cizhou kiln. Cizhou kiln has a long history, there are museums, and the cultural relics and sites inside are well preserved by us.Then we came to the city. I said to Xue Rongrong, "how is it? Isnt it beautiful here?" it said excitedly, "its really beautiful. Its really a tourist resort!" I said proudly: "of course, there is a theme park in the city every other section. People enjoy the scenery and exercise in the park." this is my hometown, a small but beautiful place.At the time of parting, Xue Rongrong told me that its name implies lighting up my dream and warming the world, representing friendship, courage and strength, and reflecting the concept of struggle and motivation of athletes in the winter Paralympic Games. Let me study hard and grow up to be a glowing person.Beijing and the northern Chinese city of Zhangjiakou are bidding for the 2022 Winter Olympics. The Chinese Olympic Committee sent a formal nomination letter to the International Olympic Committee last Sunday and the bid is supported by the Chinese government,Chinasofficial news agency Xinhua reported this week. "The bid to host the 2022 Winter Olympics will further improve the development of the Chinese Olympic cause,display the prehensive power of China and push forward the coordinated development of the economies of the o cities," the mittee said in a statement.At the Olympic Winter Games, curling consists of two events: a women’s tournament and a men’s tournament. Each tournament starts with 10 curling teams. Two teams play against each other at a time. The game is played on ice, and the two teams take turns pushing19.1-kilogram stones towards a series of concentric rings or circles. The object is to get the stones as close to the centre of the rings as possible.One game consists of 10 “ends”(similar to innings in baseball). During each end, each four-person team “throws”(in fact, slides along the ice) eight stones —two stones per person and 16 altogether. Team members sweep the ice clean in front of each stone to control the stone’s direction, known as its “curl,”and the stone’s speed. The team with the most points —more stones closer to the centre of the rings —at the conclusion of 10 ends, is the winner.。

He was busy with his work, and her mother, who was very beautiful, spent all her time going to parties. So an Indian woman, Kamala, was paid to take care of the little girl. Mary was not a pretty child. She had a thin angry face and thin yellow hair. She was always giving orders to Kamala, who had to obey. Mary never thought of other people, but only of herself. In fact, she was a very selfish, disagreeable, badtempered little girl.

城市标志性建筑英语作文

城市标志性建筑英语作文In the vast expanse of urban development, certain structures stand out as the embodiment of a city's spirit and identity. These iconic buildings not only serve as architectural marvels but also as historical and cultural landmarks that tell the story of the city and its people.The Eiffel Tower, ParisNo discussion on iconic architecture would be complete without mentioning the Eiffel Tower. Erected in 1889 for the World's Fair, it was initially met with criticism from the artistic community. However, it has since become a symbol of Paris and France, with its intricate lattice design and the panoramic views it offers of the city.The Statue of Liberty, New YorkA gift from France to the United States, the Statue ofLiberty stands tall on Liberty Island. It symbolizes freedom and democracy, welcoming immigrants to the shores of America. The statue's torch, held high, has been a beacon of hope for many.The Sydney Opera HouseThe Sydney Opera House is a masterpiece of expressionist architecture, with its distinctive series of white sail-likestructures. It is not just a performing arts center but also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, reflecting the city's commitment to the arts and culture.The Burj Khalifa, DubaiAs the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai is a testament to modern engineering and design. Its sleek, tapering spire pierces the sky, and the building's LED light shows are a spectacle that lights up the desert night.The Colosseum, RomeAncient yet eternal, the Colosseum is a symbol of Rome's rich history. Once the epicenter of gladiatorial contests, it now stands as a reminder of the Roman Empire's grandeur and the city's enduring legacy.The Petronas Twin Towers, Kuala LumpurThese twin skyscrapers, connected by a skybridge on the 41st and 42nd floors, are an iconic representation of Malaysia's rapid growth and development. The towers are a symbol ofunity and progress, reflecting the aspirations of a modern nation.ConclusionIconic architecture is more than just buildings; they are the heart and soul of a city. They inspire awe, spark curiosity, and often become the most photographed and visited places inthe world. As we continue to build upwards and outwards, these structures remind us of our past, present, and the potential of our future.。
