以 世界奇迹 为题的英语作文

ACCIDENTAL discoveries have often opened the door to beauty and wonder. The rock paintings in France that date back 15,000 years, for example, were discovered by two boys who were looking for shelter from the rain. The paintings later became the "find of last century".

　Or, the Sanxingdui Ruins, known by historians as the "Ninth Wonder of the World", were discovered in Sichuan Province by a farmer.

　In the spring of 1929, Yan Qingbao, then a 43-year-old farmer, discovered a circular piece of jade while digging a hole. Driven by curiosity, he dug deeper and found a group of about 400 colourful jade pieces.

　At the time, he had no idea his discovery would be as important as other wonders of the world such as, China's Great Wall and Egypt's pyramids.

　Since then, more than 10,000 relics, dating back to between 5,000 and 3,000 BC have been unearthed at Sanxingdui.

　These relics include gold, pottery, bone tools and ivory objects.

　They prove that Sanxingdui contains the ruins of an ancient city that was once the political, economic and cultural centre of the ancient Shu Kingdom — the old name for Sichuan.

　It has helped modern historians realize that Sichuan's human history goes back more than 5,000 years. And, located on the upper part of the Yangtze River, the site challenges the common idea that Chinese civilization rose from a single source — the Yellow River valley.

　Sanxingdui was named the Scientific Education Base for China's Youth in March this year.

　But still, only four of the Sanxingdui Ruins' 12 square kilometres have been uncovered. Who knows what other big surprises are waiting to be shown to the world?

　　偶然的发现常常会打开美妙与奇迹之门。例如，有15,000年历史的法国岩画就是两个男孩在躲雨时发现的。后来，这些岩画成了“上世纪最伟大的发现”。

　　无独有偶，被史学家誉为“世界第九奇迹”的三星堆遗址也是四川省一位农民发现的。

　　1929年春，当时43岁的农民阎清宝（音译）在锄地时发现一块圆形玉。出于好奇，他进一步挖掘，最终发现了一批约400件色彩各异的玉器。

　　当时他并没想到，自己的发现竟可与中国长城、埃及金字塔等世界奇迹齐名。

　随后，三星堆还出土了10,000多件文物，其历史均可追溯到公元前5,000到3,000年。

　　这些文物包括金器、陶器、骨制工具和象牙制品。

　　这些都表明三星堆是历史上蜀国（四川旧称）政治、经济、文化中心的遗址。

　　这些文物还使史学家认识到5,000多年前四川就有了人类。而且，这个遗址位于长江上游，对“黄河是中华文明的唯一起源”这一理论提出了质疑。

　　今年三月，三星堆遗址被指定为中国青年科教基地。

　　然而三星堆遗址12平方公里总面积中，至今仅有4平方公里被开发。谁知它还将呈现给世界怎样的惊喜呢？
