介 What impresses me most in Beijing is the Great Wall which is one of the greatest projects in the world. Its not only the cultural heritage, but also a symbol of China. "Its glorious." I think. It looks like a big dragon running across the mountainous area. It starts Shanhaiguan in the east to Jiayuguan in the west. Its so long that nobody can walk from the beginning to the end.

在北京给我印象最深的是长城,是世界上最大的项目之一。它不仅是文化遗产,也是中国的象征。”我觉得“它很辉煌"。它就像一条巨龙穿越山区。从东面的山海关开始一直延伸到西边的嘉峪关。太长了以至于没有人能从走到尾。

It was firstly built in Qin Dynasty and prolonged in Ming and Qing dynasties. It was used to protect the enemies from invading in the past, but now it has become the place of interest which attracts so many tourists both at home and abroad.

它始建于秦朝,一直延期到明清时期。在过去它是用来防止敌人的入侵,但现在它已成为名胜古迹,吸引了很多国内外游客。

When I was standing on the top of the Great Wall, I felt as if I were in ancient days. I could see many laborers working very hard. How could they finish this extremely difficult task by hand?

当我站在长城上时,我感觉我像是在古代一样。我可以看到很多劳动者努力工作。他们怎么能用手工完成这个艰巨的任务?

Based on historical documents, modern survey and statistics, as well as the result of predecessor studies, the trend and main process of forest dynamics are recognized. The forest area and forest coverage rates for each province of China from 1700 to 1949 are es- timated backward by every 50 years. Linking the result with modern National Forest Inventory data, the spatial-temporal dynamics of Chinese forest in recent 300 years (AD 1700–1998) is quantitatively analyzed. The study shows that in recent 300 years, the forest area in current territory of China has declined by 0.95×108 hm2 (or 9.2% of the coverage rate) in total, with a trend of decrease and recovery. Before the 1960s, there was a trend of accelerated de- scending. The forest area was reduced by 1.66×108 hm2 (or 17% of the coverage rate) in 260 years. While after the 1960s, there has been a rapid increase. The forest area increased by 0.7×108 hm2 (or 8% of the coverage rate) in 40 years. The study also shows that there is a significant spatial difference in the dynamics of forest. The amplitudes of increasing and de- creasing in western China are both smaller than the ones in eastern China. During the rapid declining period from 1700 to 1949, the most serious decrease appeared in the Northeast, the Southwest and the Southeast, where the coverage rate in most provinces dropped over 20%. In Heilongjiang Province, the coverage rate dropped by 50%. In Jilin Province, it dropped by 36%. In Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality, it dropped by 42%. In Yunnan Prov- ince, it dropped by 35%. During the recovery period 1949–1998, the western provinces, mu- nicipality and autonomous regions, including Ningxia, Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Si- chuan–Chongqing, Yunnan, Tibet, Xinjiang and Qinghai, etc, the increase rates are all below 5%, while the eastern provinces, municipality and autonomous regions (except Heilongjiang, Hubei, Jiangsu–Shanghai) have achieved an increase over 5%, among which the Guang- dong–Hainan, Guangxi, Anhui, Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Zhejiang, and Fu- jian have an increase over 10%.

april fools day is traditionally a day to play practical jokes on others, send people on fools errands, and fool the unsuspecting. no one knows how this holiday began but it was thought to have originated in france.

传统上来讲,愚人节这一天,人们可以相互搞恶作剧,骗人跑腿,欺骗不知情的人。没人知道这个节日是怎么来的,但人们普遍认为它源自法国。

the closest point in time that can be identified as the beginning of this tradition was in 1582, in france. new years was celebrated on march 25 and celebrations lasted until april 1st. when new years day as changed from march 25 to january 1st in the mid-1560s by king charles ix, there were some people who still celebrated it on april 1st and those people were called april fools.

庆祝愚人节最早是在1582年,在法国。那时,当时法国新年是在3月25日,一直持续到4月1日。16世纪60年代中期,国王查理九世把新年从3月25日变为1月1日,而还有一些人在4月1日过新年,这些人就被称作四月傻瓜了。

pranks performed on april fools day range from the simple, (such as saying, "your shoes untied!), to the elaborate. setting a roommates alarm clock back an hour is a common gag. the news media even gets involved. for instance, a british short film once shown on april fools day was a fairly detailed documentary about "spaghetti farmers" and how they harvest their crop from the spaghetti trees. whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, "april fool!"

愚人节那天的恶作剧有的很简单(比如,说句“你鞋带开了!”),有的却是精心设计的。把室友的闹钟往后调一小时是常见的。甚至新闻媒体都来凑热闹。比如,在愚人节那天,曾经有一部英国短片较为详细地记录了“种意大利面的农民”,以及他们如何从意大利面树上收获意大利面。不管是什么恶作剧,搞恶作剧的人通常在最后会对被搞的人喊一句:"四月傻瓜!"

april fools day is a "for-fun-only" observance. nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their "significant other" out to eat in a fancy restaurant. nobody gets off work or school. its simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next april fool!

愚人节是一个“仅为娱乐”的节日。谁也不用买礼物,也不用带着男/女朋友出去到一家豪华餐厅去吃饭。人们也不会放假。它仅仅是个搞笑的小节日,但是在这一天,每个人都要保持警醒,不然就要被人耍啦。

each country celebrates april fools differently. in france, the april fools is called "april fish" (poisson davril). the french fool their friends by taping a paper fish to their friends backs and when some discovers this trick, they yell "poisson davril!".

每个国家用不同的方式过愚人节。在法国,愚人节被称作“april fish”。法国人和他们的朋友是这样开玩笑的:把一张裁成鱼形的纸用胶带粘到朋友的后背上,当有人发现的时候,他们就会喊:“poisson davril!”.

in england, tricks can be played only in the morning. if a trick is played on you, you are a "noodle". in scotland, april fools day is 48 hours long and you are called an "april gowk", which is another name for a cuckoo bird. the second day in scotlands april fools is called taily day and is dedicated to pranks involving the buttocks. taily days gift to posterior posterity is the still-hilarious "kick me" sign.

在英国,只能在早上搞恶作剧。如果你被耍了,那你就是“面条”。在苏格兰,愚人节要持续2天,被耍的人被称为“四月布谷”。苏格兰第二天的愚人节叫做taily day,恶作剧主要在别人的屁股上做文章。
