My Journey to the Great Wall at Juyongguan Pass{去游览长城的英语作文}.
By Connie Liao from Longmen, Huizhou
It was at the crack of dawn on the 4th day of my journey in Beijing that we got up and then we spent more than one hour travelling by bus to the Juyongguan Pass.
Actually, I have already appreciated its beauty on TV programs many times before, but I couldn’t wait to get off the bus and hurried to have a look at it, as soon as the bus stopped.
Looking up when standing at the foot of the Great Wall, I clearly found that it was quite different from the one seen on TV. It stretched off into the distance, like a big dragon, beautiful beyond compare.
“...The Great Wall was originally built to keep out dangerous invaders. Today it’s a little more than a curiosity. ”the guide said, showing us the way in the front of the tour group. After appointing a time to meet other companions, I rushed to climb it ahead of them. On the way to the top, I had a friendly talk with an American boy who had come to China with his family. I told him that there is an old saying that he who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man. Maybe these words encouraged both of us, we got to the top without complaining being tired, hungry, thirsty and so on.
We passed several watchtowers along the Wall. My American friend asked me, “What were they used for?” “Sending a warning message.” I replied.
After thinking for a while, I added, “Suppose you are here, in this watchtower, and you want to let me know the enemy is coming. But I am in that one, then you can set a fire and I can see the light and smoke.”
Talking something about the Great Wall, we got to the top around thirty minutes later.
The higher you climb, the further you will see. It rang true to us especially when the mountains below completely emerged before our eyes. You couldn’t imagine how incredibly beautiful the scene was when you were standing on the top of the high and steep Juyongguan Pass.{去游览长城的英语作文}.
Looking down, I found that many visitors were climbing, some of whom looked as small as ants. In spite of panting and sweat coming down, they didn’t give up and tried hard to get to the top. I said to my new friend, “The Great Wall was built all by hand without any modern machines, and tens of thousands of people taking part in this giant project died. Thus the Great Wall came into existence.” He said nothing, enjoying the view silently. Seeing the Great Wall which was exchanged with blood and lives, a feeling of admiration sprang up from the bottom of my heart, and so it might be with him.
Soft wind blowing, the view was so attractive that we just didn’t want to leave. After a while, I saw a little girl whose face was printed a Chinese flag and Fuwa, Huanhuan on. Yeah, it would be the Beijing Olymics in two weeks time. For the past many years, we have been dying to bid for the Olympics. Facing the big challenge, we were never scared. Eventually, we have fulfilled our dream, and we were so delighted to see that the 2008 Olympic Games would be held in our capital, Beijing.
During my journey to the Great Wall at Juyongguan Pass, I have thought and learned a lot. There is not a shadow of doubt that the 5000-year-old culture along with the long serpentine Great Wall will keep on drawing people from all over the world on.
The old blocks under our feet, though stepped by millions of times, year in and year out, suffered from wind and rain, yet the extraordinary lustre of the Great Wall will never fade and the spirit of our nation will shine like a pearl in the long river of history, forever.

篇六:《游览长城作文800字》
北京的八达岭长城是非常雄伟的。 我和爸妈站在八达岭长城的入口处，只见巍峨的长城犹如一条巨龙弯弯曲曲地盘在山上。望着远处的山顶长城上黑压压的蚂蚁搬的人们，心里不由得惊讶：真是人山人海！ 这时，迎面吹来一阵寒风，我不禁被冻得哆嗦。虽然昨天预报说今天会降温，而我也是有备而来加厚了衣服，但没想到是这么冷！好像一下到了南极，风刮在脸上像刀似的，真疼啊！在这么恶劣的天气爬长城还真是一种挑战啊&&但愿我能活着回去，阿门。我这样想着，向长城迈开了脚步。 长城的楼梯很陡很陡，每上一个台阶都要用尽全力，腿好像灌了铅，抬都抬不起来。四周的城墙上每一块砖都刻满了各种名字，连地上都有。我想这是游客来时留下的纪念吧。长城上没有楼梯的地方变成的陡坡，几乎是90°，非常难爬。爬到一半甚至有可能滑下来。于是人们就抓住扶手一点一点往上挪。扶手只有两边有，所以就形成了两遍挤满人而中间空荡荡的奇特景象。因为人太多，实在挤不上去了，于是我只好后退几步，从中间冲了上去，不过撞到了不少人。 爬到中间的时候，我回过头向山下俯视。因为是冬天，所以山上的树叶都掉光了，只剩下张牙舞爪的光秃秃的树干了。偶尔有一两只鸟飞来飞去，叫几声。显得孤零零的。我想到了孤树落日残霞，轻烟老树寒鸦。白朴大概想描写得就是这番景象吧。 我还看到了我曾经爬过的那几段长城，现在它显得那么渺小。不过上面的人还是黑压压的挤来挤去的样子。这长城弯弯曲曲的，一直到山的最深处不管我怎么踮脚，怎么蹦怎么跳到看不见了为止，只能看到藏在树林里的若隐若现的烽火台。我回过头来，看着那个最高点终点，离我不远了信心更加十足了。 快到正午了，天气暖和了许多，游客也增加了。 历经千辛万苦，我最终终于气喘吁吁，爬到了终点。我站在高高的台子上，骄傲的举起了手，眺望着远方欣赏着远处美丽的风光！ 不到长城非好汉，我读完诗句感慨地说：我也是一条好汉了！五年级:547947129

I am very proud to have the opportunity to be your guide. Today we are going to visit Great Wall.
History of The Great Wall（长城的历史）
Construction of the Great Wall first began in the seventh century BC．At that time, it was called Spring and Autumn Period. The first section of wall, that appeared in China, was built by the Qin Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom.They had a high wall which was called“square wall” or“square city”built surrounding their own territories to defend the attack of their neighboring enemy. So it was also known as the Qi Great Wall and the Chu Great Wall．In order to defend themselves against the infringing enemy from the neighboring states, all the kingdoms had sections of high walls constructed around their own territories for self-protection.They built high walls at the strategic points of the north.These high walls were the primitive prototype of the present day Great Wall and laid the foundation for the present Great Wall.
In Chinese history, this is the largest project carried out in three dynasties that brought the climax of the development of the Great Wall. Large-scale construction of the Great Wall was concentrated in the Qin ,Han and Ming dynasties .
In 221 BC ,Qin Shihuang defeated the other six kingdoms and unified China. In order to consolidate the unity ,he decided to link up the separate sections of high walls,built by different kingdoms ,into the Great Wall.
Then he sent Meng Tian, a military general, with 300,000 soldiers and one million civilian up to north to build up the Great Wall. A great many sections were linked up and expanded, and finally it was extended into a Great Wall. When it was finished ,the total length of the Great Wall was over 7,000 kilometers long .The Qin Great Wall started from Lintao, Gansu Province in the west and ended in Liaodong ,Liaoning Province in the east.
Large-scale construction of the Great Wall was ongoing throughtout the reign of Emperor Wu Di in the Han Dynasty .In order to ward off the Huns as well as to protect the Silk Road, they also had the Great Wall extended towards the west for another 5,000 kilometers long to the Lop Nur Lake in today’s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.The Han Great Wall started from the Liaodong Peninsula in the east ,and ended at the foot of the Tianshan Mountain in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region,with a total length of 10,000 kilometers.
The last large-scale project on the Great Wall was carried out in the Ming Dynasty. In 1368, right after Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty ,he started the reconstruction of the Great Wall immediately on the basis of the Qin Great Wall .Since the remaining forces of the Yuan often made counterattacks on Beijing and the threats of the newly raised ethnic tribe of “Nu Zhen”also threatened the Ming Court, Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang paid great attention to construction of the Great Wall and stationed troops along the Wall.
The whole project of the Ming Great Wall took more than 200 years to complete , and there were 18 large-scale constructions of the Great Wall in the Ming Dynasty. After that, the total length of Ming Great Wall was more than 7,000 kilometers from Yalu River in Liaoning Province in the east ,to Jiayuguan Pass in Gansu Province in the west .It passes nine cities, provinces and autonomous regions of Liaoning, Hebei, Tianjin, Beijing, Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, Ningxia and Gansu.This is the Great Wall we see today.
The main force for the Great Wall was composed of solidiers defending the frontier, exiles and criminals, as well as the local laborers.
In ancient times the Great Wall was not only a strong defensive project but also played a very important military and economic role.The function of the Great Wall in Chinese History was mainly in Military strategies, Economy, and Perfect harmony of various nationalities.The most important is in Military strategies.
The Great Wall at Juyongguan Pass（居庸关长城）
Juyongguan Pass is located at 50 kilometers northwest of downtown Beijing.The mountions flanking the valley have many graceful peaks. The slopes on both sides of the narrow passes are covered with dense trees and plants. So, it used to be one of the famous” Eight Views of Yanjing”．There was a 20-kilometer-long valley called “Guangou Valley” from south to north, with 4 passes along the valley named “Nankou，Juyongguan，Shangguan and Badaling”．They were of great strategic importance in defending the national capital of Beijing．JuYongguan Pass is one of them．{去游览长城的英语作文}.
The name “Juyong ”in Chinese means “a place of poor laborers”. According to historical records ,Emperor Qin Shihuang forced many conscripts to build this part of the Great Wall.
Inside Juyong Pass there is an ancient marble platform known as“Cloud Terrace”．It was first built in 1342 during the Yuan Dynasty．There used to be three Tibetan style pagodas built on the terrace with a road passing under it from north to south. Therefore, it was also called “The Crossing Road Pagoda”.Later, when the pagodas were destroyed, a temple was built on the very site . However，the temple was burnt down in a fire in the early years of the Qing Dynasty，so only the terrace remained. There are also Buddhist scriptures inscribed on the stone wall in the Sanskrit，Tibetan，Basiba(a kind of Mongolian script)，Xixia，Uygur and Han languages．They offer us wonderful examples of their exquisite workmanship and vividness in carving．They are extremely valuable to the study of Buddhism and ancient languages．
Today on the way to Badaling Great Wall you can see a railway running by the Badaling Expressway. It is well-known at the Beijing- Zhangjiakou Railway. It is more than 200 kilometers away from Beijing to Zhangjiakou.The railway is very famous in China because it was the first railway designed and constructed by Chinese itself. Its chief designer was Zhan Tianyou-a famous railway engineer in China.
The Great Wall at Badaling（八达岭长城）
The Badaling Great Wall is about 75 kilometers northwest of Beijing，and it is the best-preserved part of the Great Wall．Bada means“convenient transportation to all directions”. Roads from Badaling lead to Yanqing Country to its north; Xuanhua, Zhangjiakou and Datong to the west; to the east is Yongning and Sihai; Beijing is to the south. From here people can go to all directions，hence the name of Badaling. The Badaling section is about 12 kilometers long with 24 watch towers and 4 wall platforms. There are four characters inscribed on the eastern pass of Badaling; “Juyongwaizhen” which means there was another strategic town outside the Juyong Pass. On the western pass of Badaling, there is an inscription with four words “ Beimensuoyue” carved on the top of the pass, which means, “a key to the north gate”, describing that Badaling Pass was just like a lock on the gate of Beijing. Therefore, if the gate was unlocked by a key, Beijing would be open to danger.
East of Badaling Pass lies a big rock known as, “Looking-Toward Beijing Rock.” Originally, this rock was a huge rock measuring 7 meters long and 2 meters wide. It is said that in 1900, when the Eight Allied Forces attacked Beijing, Empress Dowager Cixi hastily escaped from Beijing. When she got here, she suddenly wanted to see the city of Beijing once again. She got up on this big rock and turned to look toward Beijing in the distance, so that’s why it is called “Looking-Toward Beijing Rock”
The Great Wall at Badaling averages 7.8 meters high, 6.5 meters wide at its base, and 5.8 meters on the top, wide enough for five horses or ten solidiers walking abreast on the wall.
Watch Towers were built at regular intervals on the Great Wall itself for watching over the invading enemy .A watch tower was usually two stories high, and the defense solidiers lived inside. The ground floor was used for storing weapons and had a number of windows for archers. The upper floor had battlements, peep holes and apertures for archers. In the middle of the tower there were small living quarters for the defense solidiers.The watch towers were not only used by the defending troops to take shelter from the wind ,rain and heat, but also to fight and check the enemy’s advance ,and store arms and ammunition .
Beacon towers were built on both sides of the Wall at the commanding points，which were at the top of the mountains or the twists and turns for making warning signals. Whenever the emeny was sighted, fires were lit on the top of the beacon tower at night ,and the smoke in daytime. The smoke was specially made by burning dried wolves’ dung in daytime. Moreover, the number of the fire and smoke could reveal the number of invading enemies．The signal of a single fire or smoke with one shot of artillery fire, warned the invading troops of 100 enemies; two smokes and two shots of gunfire indicated 500 enemies; if the number of the coming enemies was around 1,000, there were three smokes and three shots of gunfire. Four smokes and four shots of gunfire indicated over 5,000 enemies, and 10,000 enemies with five smokes, ect. In this way , the commanders would not only know where the enemy was approaching, but also the numbers of the enemy. Then they could be well prepared for defense against the enemy.
Well, that is all for my presentation .Thanks for your attention. I’m looking forward to your next visit. Thank you!
