The construction of the Great Wall began at 7th or 8th centuries BC, which lasted for over 2 000 years. As one of the most magnificent ancient defense works, the Great Wall has serene scenery and great

historical value. Most parts of the Great Wall we see today were built in the Ming Dynasty, among which the best- preserved and most famous section is at Badaling in Beijing. A famous saying known to tourists is that ―He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a real man!‖ The Great Wall is one of the world cultural heritages, the symbol of the Chinese nation. 【难点注释】

1.第一句由三个分句组成，前两个分句的主语是―长城的建设‖，第三个分句的主语是―长城‖，与第二句的主语相同，因此采用断句法，将第一句断开，前两个分句翻译成一句话，第三个分句和第二句翻译成一句。―防御工事‖翻译为―defense works‖。

2.翻译第三句时，第一个分句和第二个分句的主语一致，都是―长城‖，因此―其中‖采用定语从句的方式翻译，翻译为―among which‖。

3.―不到长城非好汉‖翻译为―He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a real man‖。

4. 最后一句两个分句都是形容―长城‖，因此可以采用同位语形式，也可以用―as‖进行翻译，如―As one of the world cultural heritages, the Great Wall is the symbol of the Chinese nation.‖
