盼星星，盼月亮，我终于盼到了去北京玩的这一天。我高兴地睡不着觉，因为这是我梦寐以求的愿望可算要实现了。

今天的主角是紫荆城，也就是故宫，换句话说我们要去皇宫转转。我来带你们去转吧!

走进故宫大门，人山人海，但丝毫不影响我浏览故宫的好心情。故宫我能用五个字形容——大，雄伟、壮观!

首先我们走入午门，爸爸说，古代有句“推出午门斩首”指的就是这里，哇，这是古代杀人的地方，今天还有那么多人来看!走过午门，前面是一座由汉白玉组成的、华美的、弓形的，这就是我在电视上经常看到的金水桥。

然后我们就走进太和殿，太和殿又叫金銮殿，爸爸说，太和殿是古代重大活动的场所，如：皇帝登基、结婚、派将士出征等。难怪那么雄伟、庄严。

走着走着，我忽然发现，有一个肚皮很大、两耳处还挟着兽面铜环的大缸。我连忙走上前，摸着光溜溜的大缸，好奇地问爸爸、妈妈：“这个大缸是干吗的，是不是装水的?”“这个大缸叫‘门海’，又叫‘太平缸’，它是救火用的，故宫里这样的大小缸共有308口呢。”

我们聊着，玩闹着，不知不觉中就来到了御花园。好大的花园呀!园内，有假山、有亭台楼阁，还有奇异的石头，松柏青青翠翠。我还看见了一颗高大的连体树，御花园好美!

今天游故宫，不仅让我很开心，还增长了许多知识，虽然很累，但是是很充实的一天。

摘要：清明节是中国重要的“时年八节”之一，一般是在公历4月5号前后，节期很长，有10日前8日后及10日前10日后两种说法，这近20天内均属清明节。清明节原是指春分后十五天，1935年中华民国政府明定4月5日为国定假日清明节，也叫做民族扫墓节。

清晨七点，我们准备给老爷和老奶扫墓，扫墓对我来说可是件新鲜的事，我们拿上工具，出发了。

走在蜿蜒的山路上，我已经迫不及待了，大约过了一个小时，我们来到了老爷和老奶的墓前，一年没来，坟墓上长满了荒芜的草，大家做好分工后，纷纷开始忙碌起来，一切就绪后，我们开始烧纸钱，随着袅袅炊烟，我仿佛看到了他们的影子，他们告诉我：好好学习，珍惜生命。

是啊，人的一生苦短，每一天都要活得快乐，要不断超越自我，超越自我，梦想终会实现;超越自我，梦想化为动力;超越自我，创造美丽人生!我认为生命就在不断的超越自我，超越梦想!在山上，城市的房子尽收眼底，山中开满了金黄金光的油菜花，深呼一口，幽淡的花香，清新的空气，那些花以不可抗的动力诠释着生命的意义!

【知识延伸】关于“清明节”的英文介绍

Qing Ming Jie(All Souls Day)

Qing Ming is a time to remember the dead and the dearly departed. More important, it is a period to honour and to pay respect to ones deceased ancestors and family members. Because it reinforces the ethic of filial piety, Qing Ming is a major Chinese festival.

Literally meaning "clear" (Qing) and "bright" (Ming), this Chinese festival falls in early spring, on the 106th day after the winter solstice. It is a "spring" festival, and it is an occasion for the whole family to leave the home and to sweep the graves of their forebears. Chinese being practical people this sweeping of the graves is given an extended period, that is, 10 days before and after Qing Ming day. Among some dialect groups a whole month is allocated.

清明节是一个纪念祖先的节日。主要的纪念仪式是扫墓，扫墓是慎终追远、郭亲睦邻及行孝的具体表现;基于上述意义，清明节因此成为华人的重要节日。清明节是在仲春和暮春之交，也就是冬至后的106天。扫墓活动通常是在清明节的前十天或后十天。有些地域的人士的扫墓活动长达一个月。

ORIGIN(起源)

Qing Ming is popularly associated with Jie Zi Zhui, who lived in Shanxi province in 600 B.C. Legend has it that Jie saved his starving lords life by serving a piece of his own leg. When the lord succeeded in becoming the ruler of a small principality, he invited his faithful follower to join him. However, Jie declined his invitation, preferring to lead a hermits life with his mother in the mountains.

Believing that he could force Jie out by burning the mountain, the lord ordered his men to set the forest on fire. To his consternation, Jie chose to remain where he was and was burnt to death. To commemorate Jie, the lord ordered all fires in every home to be put out on the anniversary of Jies death. Thus began the "cold food feast", a day when no food could be cooked since no fire could be lit.

The "cold food" festival occurs on the eve of Qing Ming and is often considered as part of the Qing Ming festival. As time passes, the Qing Ming festival replaced the "cold food" festival. Whatever practice is observed，the basic observation of Qing Ming is to remember ones elders by making a special effort to visit their graves, ashes or ancestral tablets. To make the visit even more meaningful, some time should be spent to remind the younger members of the family of the lives and contributions of their ancestors, and the story of Jie Zi Zhui who choose death over capitulation.

谈到清明节，有点历史知识的人，都会联想到历史人物介子椎。据历史记载，在两千多年以前的春秋时代，晋国公子重耳逃亡在外，生活艰苦，跟随他的介子椎不惜从自己的腿上割下一块肉让他充饥。后来，重耳回到晋国，作了国君(即晋文公，春秋五霸之一)，大事封赏所有跟随他流亡在外的随从，惟独介子椎拒绝接受封赏，他带了母亲隐居绵山。

晋文公无计可施，只好放火烧山，他想，介子椎孝顺母亲，一定会带着老母出来。谁知这场大火却把介子椎母子烧死了。为了纪念介子椎，晋文公下令每年的这一天，禁止生火，家家户户只能吃生冷的食物，这就是寒食节的来源。

寒食节是在清明节的前一天，古人常把寒食节的活动延续到清明，久而久之，清明取代了寒食节。拜介子椎的习俗也变成了清明扫墓的习俗了。无论以何种形式纪念，为了使纪念祖先的仪式更有意义，我们应该让年轻一代的家庭成员了解先人过去的奋斗历史，当然，还要学习介子椎宁死不屈的气节。

老妈带我去过首都北京。在北京我们参观了举世闻名的紫禁城，现在人们把它叫做故宫。这里可谓是雕梁画栋、金碧辉煌，无比豪华而壮丽。

站在午门前的广场上，你会觉得一切都变小了；走进五光十色的珍宝馆，你会觉得世间的珍宝也不过如此；逐一参观三宫六院，你更会因为那处处闪烁的金光、银光刺得眼睛都倦怠了，而懒得细细观赏那些平常以为很高贵而又精巧的`工艺品。

我还来到了举世闻名的万里长城，听老妈说：“长城初为秦始皇下令修筑，前后共抓了几十万民工，用了九年才完工。长城的修建，有利于抵御北方匈奴的骚扰，因而保证了一方百姓的正常生产生活，对中原一带经济发展起了重要的作用。站在长城上，我心潮起伏，不仅赞叹古代人民的勤劳智慧啊，长城，你是千万劳动人民的血汗凝结而成的，你是中外建筑史上的奇迹！”

北京故宫博物院是中国最大的古代文化艺术博物馆,是国家一级博物馆,也是世界上接待游客最繁忙的博物馆。

它位于北京城中心,城墙四面各有城门一座:南称午门,北称神武门,左右为东华门、西华门。

浏览的时候从午门进入参观。我们有电视中看到的、听到的:“拉到午门斩首”中的午门,就是这个门。不过导游说,这地方一般不斩杀人,只在午门处打人,有的经不住打就死了,但成了斩首了。哦!原来如此呀!

从午门进入故宫博物院,我们浏览了许多地方,有太和殿、中和殿、养心殿、乾清宫、交泰殿、保和殿、坤宁宫……

其中给我印象最深的是:

太和殿,俗称“金銮殿”。导游介绍说,“金瓦金銮殿,皇上不坐殿,一朝出了午门口,一个鼻子两只手。金瓦金銮殿,皇上看不见”。这个儿歌中的“金銮殿”就是这个地方。它是现存中国古代建筑中最高大的建筑,皇帝登基、大婚、册立皇后及公布进士黄榜等大的庆典活动都在这里举行。

保和殿:乾隆后期,这里便成为举行科举考试的场所。

坤宁宫:是皇后的寑宫。对了,电视剧中皇后娘娘口口声声地说:“坤宁宫,就是她的寑宫,就是这个地方呀!

辉煌雄伟的故宫博物院让我大开眼界,让我了解了中国的历史,中国的发展。但是遗憾的是有许多的宫殿建筑的门都是关闭的,或者里面是空荡荡的。带着遗憾我们从北边的神武门出来了。

Beijing is an ancient city with a long history. Back in 3000 years ago in Zhou dynasty, Beijing, which was called Ji at the moment, had been named capital of Yan. Thereafter, Liao, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasty all made Beijing their capital. Therefore, Beijing was famous for "Capital of a thousand years".

The long history leaves Beijing precious cultural treasure. Winding for several kilometers in Beijing area, the Great Wall is the only man-made structure that could been seen in the space. The Summer Palace is a classic composition of ancient royal gardens, and the Forbidden City is the largest royal palaces in the world. Tiantan is where the emperor used to fete their ancestors, and also the soul of Chinese ancient constructions. The four sites above has been confirmed world cultural heritage by UNESCO. However, the best representatives for Beijing are the vanishing Hutongs and square courtyards. Through hundreds of years, they have become symbol of Beijings life. Tiananmen square being still brilliant today with cloverleaf junctions and skyscrapers everywhere, the old-timey scene and modern culture are combined to present a brand new visage of Beijing.

As Beijing has been confirmed home city of Olympics 2008, the spirit of "green Olympics, scientific Olympics and humanized Olympic" will surely bring more and more changes to Beijing, promote the development of sports and Olympics in China as well as in the world, and strengthen the friendly communications between Chinese and foreign people.

北京是一个有着悠久历史的古城。早在3000年前的周朝,北京,这叫霁,被命名为首都燕。此后,辽、金、元、明、清都是北京首都。因此,北京著名的一千年的“资本”。

悠久的历史使北京宝贵的文化瑰宝。绕组在北京地区几公里,长城是唯一的人造结构,可以在空间。颐和园是古代皇家园林的经典组合,和故宫是世界上最大的皇家宫殿。天坛是皇帝用来祭祀他们的祖先的地方,也是中国古代建筑的灵魂。上面的四个网站已经确认被联合国教科文组织世界文化遗产。然而,北京最好的代表是消失的胡同和广场庭院。数百年来,他们已经成为北京的生活的象征。天安门广场到处都在今天依然灿烂的蝶式路口和摩天大楼的,古色古香的场景和现代文化相结合,提出一个全新的北京的面貌。

随着北京2008年奥运会已被证实的家乡,精神的“绿色奥运、科技奥运和人性化的奥林匹克”必将给北京带来越来越多的变化,促进体育和奥运会在中国的发展以及世界上,加强中外人民之间的友好交流。

Autumn is not like the spring so colorful, unlike the summer there are so many elf in singing, not as crystal clear as the winter, but the autumn garden in my heart is the most beautiful.

In the corner of the garden, there are more than ten pots of petals curled flowers, that is chrysanthemum. The curved petals, a trace of a trace, like a few curled ribbons, gently hanging on the straight stems. Flower color colorful, there are white, there are orange, and blood red ... ... I particularly like those white flowers, I think it is white flawless, noble and pure.

Chrysanthemum next to there are more than a dozen tall trees, that is sweet-scented osmanthus. Jin Gui, silver Gui look good, they all looked up the golden smile, like saying: "fall to! Autumn!" Next to the butterfly in the dancing, that white I know, called the butterfly. They are accompanied by flowers flying, look very good!

Autumn is the most representative of the plant that is Maple Leaf. From afar, like a bright glow; into a look, like a red little hands, beautiful!

Autumn garden is really picturesque ah!

故宫位于北京的天安门内，是明朝明成祖朱棣建造的。也是明、清两代的皇宫，又称“紫禁城”。

“故宫规模宏大。明代皇帝朱棣，以南京宮殿为蓝本，从大江南北征调能工巧匠和役使百万夫役，历经14年(1407年??1420年)时间建成的。平面呈长方形，南北长961米，东西宽753米，占地面积72万平方米。城墙环绕，周长3428米，城墙高7.9米，底部宽8.62米，上部外侧筑雉牒，内侧砌宇墙。城外有一条宽52米的护城河环绕，构成完整的防卫系统”。

故宫不仅规模宏大，而且类型众多。不知不觉，我们跟导游已经穿过了午门，跨过了太和门，来到一个大宮殿面前。牌子上写着“太和殿”三个大字。听导游介绍：太和殿是故宫中最大的宮殿了，殿高35米多，横十一间，纵五间，正中设宝座，每逢皇帝就位，以及生日、元旦、冬至三大节和调兵遣将等大朝会，大庆典的活动，都在这里举行。那时，皇帝高踞宝座，文武百官排列殿外。九龙壁的色彩鲜艳。它建于清乾隆38年(1773)。

壁高6米，长31米，表现9条不同颜色，各具姿态的游龙，腾越于汹涌的浪涛之中。之后，我们又游览了许多地方，我也从导游身上学到了许多东西。故宫的宮殿建筑，是我国现存最大、最完整的古建筑群。它标志着我国悠久的文化传统，显示着500余年前我国在建筑艺术上的卓越成就。

I like the flowers of spring, prefer the fruits of the fall of the land everywhere.

Autumn sky is particularly charming. You see, the sky is so high, then blue, looks particularly clean, like washed the same. The sky of white clouds, for a while into a sheep, for a while into a cow, while again into a mountain, river, very interesting.

Field, the golden rice laughed, from afar, endless rice fields like a golden ocean. The sorghum burns its own torches, as if it were illuminated by the peasant uncle! The corn from the thick clothes inside secretly flashed his beautiful "curly hair", the cotton girl exposed the white smile. People are busy in the ground, everywhere a bumper harvest,

Orchard, the apple exposed red face, Huang Chengcheng oranges, red glowing persimmon like a small lanterns like hanging in the tree, you squeeze me touch, as if waiting for people to pick it, the air filled with fruit Sweet taste.

In the park, chrysanthemum opened. Into the door, they smell the scent of chrysanthemum. Some chrysanthemum or budding flowers bones children, and some just open, and some have been completely open, colorful, contests, very beautiful!

Leaves yellow, a piece of yellow leaves floating in the wind, like a dancing only yellow butterfly; grass is also like a big yellow to the ground covered with a warm yellow cotton quilt.

Autumn is really beautiful, I like autumn.

北京是我们祖国的首都，可是我从小到大一次也没去过，所以我要借着暑假和爸爸妈妈一起去。我们要参观的第一站就是世界上最大的城市中心广场“天安门广场”，还有世界上现存最大的宫殿建筑群“故宫”。

经过几个小时的车程，我们终于到了北京的天安门广场。哇！天安门广场真大呀，足足有好几个我们的学校大。天安门的前面是大前门，左面是人民大会堂，右面是毛主席纪念碑和纪念堂。天安门中心那就是国旗台了。天安门总共有五个门，中间那个最大的门就是以前皇帝走的，旁边两个门是官位较高的大臣走的，而最小的两个门是官位较小的大臣走的。走过这道门，后面就来到了故宫。

故宫原来称“紫禁城”，是明、清两代的皇宫，由大小数十个院落组成，房屋9000多间，占地72万平方千米，据导游讲，一个人从生下来就在每个房间里住，每天一间，要24年才能住完，你说这有多大呀。因为那时的皇帝都十分迷信，所以每个宫殿上面都有九只神兽来保佑皇帝。宫殿外面有两只狮子，一只踩着球的是公狮子，而另一只踩着小狮子的是母狮子。皇帝为什么选择狮子作为摆设呢，据说是因为狮子是兽中之王，还是“一夫多妻”呢。宫殿周围都很空旷，没有树木，皇帝怕有坏人藏在树上，对他不利。我们继续往后走，来到了御花园。御花园里到处是名花贵树，大多数树木都是几百年以上的。花园里有许多亭台楼阁，是皇族们乘凉的地方。花园后面有一座假山，宫里的人们没法出宫，只能站在上面望远来思念家人。

故宫不公庞大美丽，还有许多遥远的故事，清楚地记录了当时的生活，这全都成为了我们的回忆。

People native to urban Beijing speak the Beijing dialect, which belongs to

the Mandarin subdivision of spoken Chinese. Beijing dialect is the basis for

Standard Mandarin, the language used in the Peoples Republic of China, the

Republic of China on Taiwan, and Singapore. Rural areas of Beijing Municipality

have their own dialects akin to those of Hebei province, which surrounds Beijing

Municipality.

Beijing Opera, or Peking Opera (Jingju), is well-known throughout the

national capital. Commonly lauded as one of the highest achievements of Chinese

culture, Beijing Opera is performed through a combination of song, spoken

dialogue, and codified action sequences, such as gestures, movement, fighting

and acrobatics. Much of Beijing Opera is carried out in an archaic stage dialect

quite different from modern Standard Mandarin and from the Beijing dialect; this

makes the dialogue somewhat hard to understand, and the problem is compounded if

one is not familiar with Chinese. As a result, modern theaters often have

electronic titles in Chinese and English.

A hutong in eastern Beijing near Dongsishitiao. In this March 2003 photo

the left side was still standing, but it has since given way to new

construction.The Siheyuan is a traditional architectural style of Beijing. A

siheyuan consists of a square housing compound, with rooms enclosing a central

courtyard. This courtyard often contains a pomegranate or other type of tree, as

well as potted flowers or a fish tank. Siheyuans line Hutongs , or alleys, which

connect the interior of Beijings old city. They are usually straight and run

east-to-west so that doorways can face north and south for Feng Shui reasons.

They vary in width — some are very narrow, enough for only a few pedestrians to

pass through at a time.

Once ubiquitous in Beijing, siheyuans and hutongs are now rapidly

disappearing, as entire city blocks of hutongs are leveled and replaced with

high-rise buildings. Residents of the hutongs are entitled to apartments in the

new buildings of at least the same size as their former residences. Many

complain, however, that the traditional sense of community and street life of

the hutongs cannot be replaced. Some particularly historic or picturesque

hutongs are being preserved and restored by the government, especially for the

2008 Olympics. One such example can be seen at Nanchizi.

Mandarin cuisine is the local style of cooking in Beijing. Peking Roast

Duck is perhaps the most well-known dish. The Manhan Quanxi ("Manchu-Han Chinese

full banquet") is a traditional banquet originally intended for the

ethnic-Manchu emperors of the Qing Dynasty; it remains very prestigious and

expensive.

Teahouses are also common in Beijing. Chinese tea comes in many varieties

and some rather expensive types of Chinese tea are said to cure an ailing body

extraordinarily well.

The Jingtailan is a cloisonné metalworking technique and tradition

originating from Beijing, and one of the most revered traditional crafts in

China. Beijing lacquerware is well known for the patterns and images carved into

its surface.

The Fuling Jiabing is a traditional Beijing snack food, a pancake (bing)

resembling a flat disk with filling, made from fu ling (Poria cocos (Schw.)

Wolf, or "tuckahoe"), an ingredient common in traditional Chinese medicine.

各位游客们：

大家好！我叫吴xx，也可以叫我小吴，我今天要带领大家去在“世界遗产列表”当中的一处景物——北京故宫！

我来简单介绍一下：故宫位置于北京市中心，旧称紫禁城。是明、清两代的皇宫，无与伦比的古代杰作，世界现存最大、最完整的木质结构的古建筑群.

大家看！这就是故宫！这是多么雄伟啊！故宫是在公元1406年建的，在1420年差不多竣工，是明朝皇帝朱棣建的。故宫南北长961米，东西宽753米，面积约为723,600平方米，可真大啊！建筑面积15.5万平方米，相传故宫一共有9999间房，实际据1973年专家现场测量故宫有大小院落90多座，房屋有980座，共计8707间，宫城周围环绕着高12米，长3400米的宫墙，形式为一个长方形城池，墙外有52米宽的护城河环绕，形成一个大大的城堡。故宫是木结构、黄琉璃瓦顶、青白石底座，可以饰以金碧辉煌的彩画。

看！故宫一共有4个门，门可真多，显然表示出故宫的大，正门名字叫做午门，东门名字叫做东华门，西门名字叫做西华门，北门名字叫做神武门。面对北门的神武门，有用土块和石头建筑成的大景山，满山松柏成林。在整体布局上，景山可以说是故宫建筑的天然屏障！

接下来给两个钟头的时间游玩，请注意下面的提示：

1、不要随地吐痰！

2、不要乱扔垃圾！

3、不要乱动东西！

两小时后回到原地，准备上车回宾馆。

During the 15 days from New Years Eve to Lantern Festival, Beijing was affected by smog for more than half the time, because of which people suffered a lot. On the road people drove slowly because they could not see clearly. People also suffered from many illnesses caused by smog.

The smog in Beijing has been caused by many factors, in which the increase of cars in the city area plays an important role. The cars send off a lot of poisonous gases, which in turn adds to the already serious air pollution.

In my opinion, the number of cars should be limited. We should call on the people to use more public transport. Only in this way can we expect to have more sunny days.

[北京的雾霾英语作文

去年暑假，爸爸和我去参观闻名世界的北京故宫。

我们到达故宫的后门，买好票，请了一个导游，就进了雄伟的故宮后门。首先展现在我眼前的是一棵大槐树。导游说：“当年崇桢皇帝就是吊死在这棵树上的”。我们随着导游继续走，到了坤宁宫，坤宁宫是皇妃住的地方，这里风景优美，有许多枝繁叶茂的树木。这些房子大约有三米高，皇后就住在靠南方向的屋子里。对面是嫔妃住的西六宫，那里的屋子很暗，也很小。穿过书斋，就到了乾清宮，这是皇上上早朝的地方，乾清宮的正前方摆着一张镀金做的精美的龙椅。龙椅上刻有许多龙，有的龙双龙戏珠，有的龙互相缠绕，真是维妙维肖。我抬头往上一看，墙上有一块大大的匾，匾上写着“正大光明”四个大字，每当上朝时，“正大光明”这块匾就面对着各位大臣，仿佛告诫这些大臣们：“凡是做事，都要正大光明的做。”我站在乾清宫中间，仿佛看到了当时的皇上和众位大臣商议朝政时的气势。随后，导游还带我们参观了中和殿、保和殿等地方，最后，就到达了故宫的正门。

走出正门，我再一次回首遥望着这座古老的宮殿，心里默默的祝愿着：祝愿祖国繁荣富强，一代更比一代强。

今年暑假，我和爸爸去北京住了一段时间。在此时间，我们去了很多地方。其中，令我印象最深刻的地方就是去故宫。

到天安门广场了，我和爸爸直奔故宫走去，到了故宫，我惊叹起来了：我从来都没有见过这么大的广场，我估计这个广场可以容下几万人了呢!接着，我们又走呀走呀，抬头一看，哇!简直不敢相信，这是古人造宫殿，这太和殿 真是金碧辉煌，雄伟壮丽啊——!在楼梯中间有一副用石头雕刻出来的石雕画。整个石雕画上面刻着各种各样的龙，真是华丽而威武。看这那么大的巨石雕刻，我不禁感叹。

我们走进了御花园，满眼看到的都是苍松翠柏 ，奇花异石。放眼望去，不时可见几座宫殿和几座奇怪的山峰呢!

这自然与人工的美妙结合，正所谓“天上人间”啊——!
