初二游长城的游记作文800字

+ 加入清单

今天,我5:00被爸爸从床上叫了起来,这时候天还是灰蒙蒙,我跟爸爸说:“太阳还没起床呢!”可是爸爸说:“太阳快起床了,只是我们看不到。”这时,爸爸叫的出租车已经来了,但妈妈她们还没有下来,爸爸只好让出租车司机等一下。过了一会儿,妈妈她们下来了,我们就坐上出租车去导游指定地点等旅游大巴车。

6点半左右,旅游大巴来了,同行的游客也到齐了,我们一起坐上旅游大巴向慕田峪长城出发。刚上车时,一股冷气扑面而来。爸爸说我们要坐两个小时才能到达目的地,我就想利用这个时间好好补充一下睡眠,开始眯着眼睛休息,不一会就睡着了。等我一觉醒来,果然我们已经到了慕田峪长城景区。导游让我们先去上厕所,说长城边上只有一个厕所。之后,导游带我们先坐缆车上山,爸爸和随行的另一位叔叔则徒步爬山。坐在缆车上俯瞰整个山谷,景色十分美丽,我还发现很多没有成熟的桃子,很诱人,我很想尝尝是什么味道。

从缆车上下来,我发现我比爸爸他们早到,于是我们在附近拍了几张照片。然后爬到最近的一段长城上等了一会儿,爸爸他们还是没有爬上来。这时我发现附近的一个敌楼,还有很多级台阶,所以看不到山下长城的起点,我想爸爸应该是从这里上来的,决定不再等了。

我和同行的另外两个小朋友开始比赛往上爬长城。我发现长城的每一个敌楼都是修筑在一个相对较高的山峰上,过了敌楼就有一段下行的长城到达山坳,然后沿着山脊向上。我就利用下行路段快速奔跑,然后借助反冲力让自己教轻松地冲上另一个敌楼。一路上,我们还看见几只千足虫,其中一只千足虫潜到一个水洼里又爬出来,一位叔叔用脚把千足虫又弄到水里去,这样连续了三四次,最后千足虫就彻底沉下水再也爬不起来了,估计是被淹死了。

后来,我们又爬过了几个比之前两个大一点的敌楼,我感觉自己飞了起来一样,又感觉自己坐在汽车上一样飞快。爬完这十几个敌楼,我休息了一下,发现妈妈气喘嘘嘘的跟上来了,我撒腿就跑。转眼间,我就爬到了长城的最高处,我突然感觉有人摸我,转身一看,原来是爸爸。爸爸说:“时间不早了,该下去了!”于是,我们就沿原路下山,乘坐旅游大巴返回北京。

爬完长城,我感觉虽然很累但很开心!

可爱的你,带给我温暖。

——题记

刚来这个班时,我第一个遇见的是你,我因为不会叠被子,而你却在寝室里像妈妈一样的帮助我,那时,我就有点喜欢你了。

当你让我当你的英语课代表时,我就毫不犹豫的答应了。因为你不仅年轻,长得也很清纯,并且还有一颗少女心。

可惜,时间长后,我发现我厌恶你了。

教学方式不好,单词好写错,知识点没讲全,我感觉我的英语快要死了,每天都和一些成绩好的同学们在背后说你的不好,真是越想越烦,可惜没人敢对你说你的不好,我们大家都很纠结。看着你脸上的微笑,我不禁有点觉得虚伪,心里也在郁闷的滴血。

直到有一天,你喊我出去谈话,心平气和的跟我说:我是不是讲的不好啊,同学们好像不喜欢我,我们俩好像也不像以前那莫默契了。我才终于把我想说的话终于说了个遍,老师和我聊了许久,我感觉心暖暖的,原来老师也在纠结这个问题,可是每天还装着心情很好来上课,不想打扰大家的情绪。老师原来也会换位思考,身为权威的老师,却向我请教,这要有多大的勇气啊。我的脑海突然想到老师认真起来得模样,想起她的书上全是密密麻麻的笔记。

直到现在,我已经爱上你了。喜欢你上课时轻松的气氛,不像语文老师的迅速激昂;数学老师的严肃安静;物理老师的紧张费神。而是轻松愉快。喜欢你甜美的声音,让人专注;喜欢你可爱的模样,让人发笑;喜欢你认真的态度,让人钦佩。

我有时都搞不懂你,每天下三你都会准时来到,一坐坐一节课,即使整节课没一人写英语作业,你也会想办法挤点时间让大家学英语,教育差生,或者说默默坐在椅子上改听写。你很乐观,即使我们班英语不是很好,你也总是失落会就会满血复活。你很年轻,所以你课后总会和我们打成一片,很懂我们的心思,同学们也会把心里真实的想法告诉你,而不告诉别的老师。你很努力,即使独自一人站三节课,嘴里也在抱怨很累,但精神总是那么饱满,仍拼命地站着,讲着。你有点傻,当班主任把体育老师的课给你时,你总会把可爱的笑容露出来,说什么班主任很贴心,难道多给你奖钱吗?你上了那么多节不累吗?你不想休息吗?你不怕同学们埋怨你吗?你就是这么傻,愿意奉献自己。

可爱的你,给了我很多机会,让我能够好好学习英语;每天都不厌其烦的指点我,开导我,在我危难时,也会伸出援助之手,你很信任我,所以我不会让你失望。

可爱的你,请一直微笑,因为我会和你在一起。谢谢你,谢谢你带给我可爱的温暖。

The Great Wall of China

The Great Wall of China is called the "Ten-thousand-Ii Great Wall" in Chinese.In fact, its more than 6000 kilometres long. It winds its way from west to east, across deserts, over mountains, through valleys till at last it reaches the sea. It is one of the wonders of the world.

The Great Wall has a history of over twenty centuries.The first part of it was built during the Spring and Autumn Period. During the Warring States Period, more walls were put up to defend the borders of the different kingdoms. It was during the Qin Dynasty that the kingdom of Qin united the different parts into one empire. To keep the enemy out of his empire, Emperor Qin Shi Huang had all the walls joined up.Thus, the Great Wall came into being.

The Great Wall is wide enough at the top for five horses or ten men to walk side by side. Along the wall are watchtow-ers, where soldiers used to keep watch. Fires were lit on the the towers as a warning when the enemy came.

It was very difficult to build such a wall in the ancient days without any modern machines. All the work was done by hand. Thousands of men died and were buried under the wall they built. The Great Wall was made not only of stone and earth, but of the flesh and blood of millions of men.

Today the Great Wall has become a place of interest not only to the Chinese but to people from all over the world.Many of them have come to know the famous Chinese saying: "He who does not reach the Great Wall is not a true man."

中国长城

中国的长城汉语中常叫作“万里长城”。实际上它长6 ooo多公里。它从西到东,穿过沙漠,越过高山,跨过深谷,蜿蜒而行,最后直到海边。它是世界上的奇观之一。

长城有两千多年的历史。最早是在春秋时期开始修筑的。战国时期,各诸候国为了保卫自己的边境,分别修筑了更多的城墙。在秦朝时,秦国把各诸侯国统一起来,成为一个帝国。为了御敌于国门之外,秦始皇令人把所有的城墙连接起来。这样,长城就形成了。

长城上面很宽,足够五匹马或10个人并排而行。沿城墙有许多烽火台,过去常有士兵驻守。敌人来时,就点燃烽火,以通知其他士兵。

没有任何现代机器,要修筑这样一座长城是非常困难的。所有的工作都不得不用手来完成。成千上万的人死了,被埋在自己修建的城墙下面。长城不仅是用石头和土筑成的,而且也是用数以百万计的人的血肉筑成的。

今天,长城不仅对中国人,而且对来自全世界各地的人们来说都是一处名胜。其中许多人都已知道这句中国名言:“不到长城非好汉”。

Henan has a humid warm-temperate climate. Dry and windy in winter and spring, the province is hot and rainy in summer and bakes in strong sunlight during the autumn months. Rainfall averages about 600-1000 millimeters increasing from north to south, as does the annual temperature which increases from about 12.8C in the north to 15.5C in the south.

Henan province is considered the cradle of Chinese civilization due to its location on the Yellow River. This rich historic heritage has endowed Henan with numerous historic treasures, from primitive dwellings to earliest wheel thrown pottery. The remains of some of the earliest human settlements have been unearthed here, including the over 7000-year-old Peiligang Culture Site, the 6000-year-old Yangshao Culture Remains and the 5000-year-old Dahe Culture Remains. All these cultural remains have profound significance in the history of Chinese civilization.

Luoyang City has been the capital of nine dynasties since the time of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (770BC-221BC). There are many historical sites to be viewed in Luoyang as well as the opportunity to purchase replicas of the famed Tang three-glaze horses. Luoyangs Longmen Grottoes, famous for its grand treasure trove of Chinese Buddhist statues, are located 12km (7 miles) south of Luoyang. First sculpted and chiseled around 493 AD when the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534) was moved from Datong City to Luoyang, the grottoes of Luoyang house an awe-inspiring collection of sculpted Buddha and other religious subjects.

Kaifeng, one of the ancient capitals, also boasts the following buildings worthy of a visit: Iron Pagoda (Tie Ta) of the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127), Dragon Pavilion (Long Ting) - site of imperial palace of the Song and Jin dynasties - and the 1400-year-old Xiangguo Temple which is one of the most famous Buddhist temples in China. Also on view in Kaifeng are ruins of the Shang Dynasty, an important part of human cultural and historic heritage. The Shang Dynasty Ruins, also known as the Yin Ruins, are famous because of the unique style of the large palace and its grand mausoleums, in which emperors of the Shang Dynasty are buried. The bronze vessels of the Shang Dynasty, which were both finely decorated and popularly used by the citizens of the Shang Dynasty, are well-known at home and abroad.
