大运河
大运河(GrandCanal)是世界上最长的人工河,北起北京,南至杭州。它是中国历史上最宏伟的工程之一。大运河始建于公元前4世纪,公元13世纪末建成。修建之初是为了运输粮食,后来也用于运输其他商品。大运河沿线区域逐渐发展成为中国的工商业中心。长久以来,大运河对中国的经济发展发挥了重要作用,有力地促进了南北地区之间的人员往来和文化交流。
TheGrandCanal,extendingfromBeijingintheNorthtoHangzhouintheSouth,isthelongestman-maderiver.ItsconstructionwasoneofthemostmagnificentprojectsthroughouttheChinesehistory.Theconstructionofthecanalstartedinthe4thcenturyBCandwascompletedinthe13thcentury,withanoriginalaimoffacilitatinggraintransportation.Later,itwasalsofortransportingothercommodities.Overtime,theareasalongthecourseofthecanalhavedevelopedintotheindustrialandcommercialcentresofChina.Foralongtime,thecanalhasservedapivotalroleintheboomingofChineseeconomy,enhancingthepersonnelexchangeandculturalcommunicationbetweennorthernandsouthernpartsofthecountry.
坎儿井
坎儿井(Karez)是新疆干旱地区的一种水利系统,由地下渠道将水井连接而成。该系统将春夏季节渗入(seepinto)地下的大量雨水及积雪融水收集起来,通过山体的自然坡度引到地面,用于灌溉农田和满足人们的日常用水需求。坎儿井减少了水在地面的蒸发(evaporation),对地表破坏很小,因而有效地保护了自然资源与生态环境。坎儿井体现了我国人民与自然和谐共存的智慧,是对人类文明的一大贡献。
