問題詳情

2. Few things “broaden” us so much as travel, for it makes us familiar with strange and unfamiliar people, cultures, customs, landscapes, and climates. By coming in contact with these we feel that our minds are “opened.” This is also true, but in a special way, when we visit the remains of ancient civilizations. Not only26 awed by their great age; we will be surprised by how advanced the people who created these ancient structures were. When we stand before these ruins, we can’t help but 27 at the knowledge and skill of their original builders.      of these traces of ancient culture, pride of place goes to the Great Wall of China, for it is said to be one of the few man-made structures that can be seen from outer space. The Chinese first built it to keep out invaders from the north in the 3rd century B.C. Even older than the Great Wall is the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. Workmen built it with numerous stone blocks, each of them 28 more than two tons. Finished in 2560 B.C., it became the pharaoh’s tomb, and for many centuries it was the tallest structure in the world. Next door to Jordan stands the ancient city of Petra. 29 out of the sandstone cliffs and surrounded by the desert, it serves as a monument to the local Arabs’ architectural skills. This strange and wonderful city of stone may best be enjoyed at sunrise or sundown, 30 the light turns the color of the buildings rose-red.
