世界七大奇观中英文对照介绍

SevenWondersoftheWorld世界七大奇观SevenWondersoftheWorld世界七大奇观The only surviving wonder of the ancient world is the Great Pyramid. It was built nearly 5,000 years ago as the tomb of the Egyptian pharaoh3 Khufu, who ruled about 2,700 B.C. Covering an area of 13 acres at its base, the pyramid contains nearly 2,500,000 well-cut stone blocks. Each block weighs about 2.5 tons, although some weigh many tons more. At its peak4 the pyramid originally5 rose to a height of 481 feet. The area it occupies could contain four of the largest European churches. Yet the men who built it did not have even animals for labor, let alone machinery. Even the wheel was unknown to them, and the huge stone blocks were then pulled by an enormous number of laborers. The only mechanical aids they had were levers6, and primitive7 cutting tools. Yet in spite of these difficulties, the Great Pyramid is so accurately constructed that a thin piece of glass can hardly be inserted8 between the close-fitting stones.2．Hanging Gardens of BabylonThe next oldest wonder was the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. The 5th century Greek historian Herodotus has left us a full description of the gardens in all their glory. They were created over 2,500 years ago by King Nebuchadnezzar Ⅱ(605—562B.C.). Some say he had them made to delight his young bride9, who came from mountainous Persia10. Babylonia lay in the flat land of Mesopotamia11 and had no mountains. On the banks of the Euphrates River, which flowed through his royal city, the King’s workmen raised an artificial12 hill 350 feet high. It was made up of a series of platforms with trees, lawns13, and flowers. Water from the river was pumped14 to the top of the hill and allowedto flow down through canals and small waterfalls. A heaven of coolness and beauty was created in that hot, thirsty land. Little remains of Babylon today except piles15 of broken mud brick.3．Statue16 of ZeusThe huge figure of Zeus, King of the Gods, stood in the Temple of Zeus at Olympia in Greece. It was completed about 456 B.C. The statue rose to a height of 40 feet and almost touched the temple ceiling17. It was made of thin plates of gold and ivory18, covering a wooden form. The eyes were made of two large jewels. The statue was moved to Constantinople in the 5th century A.D. and was destroyed by fire about 475. Today visitors to Olympia, where the first Olympic Games were held, see only the foundations19 of the building in which it stood. But the workshop where the parts of the statue were prepared has been discovered nearby. Here some of the tools and even the molds20 from which the gold plates were made can still be seen.4．Temple of DianaDiana was the Roman name for Artemis, the Greek goddess of the moon, protecting unmarried girls and animals. She was worshipped21 in many places, but her most important temple was at Ephesus, near the coast22 of present-day Turkey. The temple, built in the 4th century B.C., was of white marble23, enriched with gold and silver. Precious24 jewels were stored below the temple. It was so lovely that it put all the other wonders in the shade. 5．MausoleumAlso in Asia Minor(modern Turkey) was the Mausoleum. It was a marble tomb built for King Mausolus(?—353B.C.) by his wife, Artemisia(?—350?B.C). So beautiful was this monument that the word mausoleum has passe d into our language and now means “burial place”. Unlike thepyramid and the T emple of Diana, the Mausoleum was not large. It was a bright jewel of a building, made of shining white marble. Rising to a height of 140 feet on a mound25 overlooking the little port of Halicarnassus, it was visible to ships entering the harbor. Its courtyard was surrounded26 by a wall. In the center of the court stood a high platform that was approached by splendid marble steps. Lions carved27 in marble guarded the approach. On a second wall surrounding the platform were more statues. At each corner were statues of proud warriors28 on horses. Other carved horses drew the chariot29 on the top of the building. In the chariot stood figures. Only a few fragments30 of this splendid mausoleum remain. Some are now in the British Museum in London. From these, scholars31 have been able to reconstruct the building in model form.6．Colossus of RhodesThis statue of the sun god Helios towered above the harbor of Rhodes, an island in the Aegean Sea. It stood over 100 feet high on a stone base that was itself higher than most statues. The Colossus was built in 280 B.C. It was made of metal32 that had been melted33 down from the arms used by Demetrius (337?-283 B.C.) when he attacked Rhodes in 305 B.C. After bravely resisting and defeating this invader34, the Rhodians built the statue as thanks offering to their god. The Colossus shaded35 its eyes and gazed out to sea. Twenty times the height of a man, it stood at the harbor entrance for only 56 years. In 224 B.C. it was thrown to the ground by an earthquake36. The large metal plates lay there for centuries until, in the 7th century A.D, they were carried away and sold by tradesmen.7．PharosThe pharos was the forerunner37 of all lighthouses. It wasbuilt on the island of Pharos near Alexandria, the gateway to Egypt, between 285 and 247 B.C. It stood about 400 feet high and was built in levels. The top supported a pan38 in which a fire burned day and night. A huge mirror, possibly made of metal, reflected the light so brightly that it could be seen far out at sea. Inside the building were 300 rooms. Horse-drawn carts carried fuel up to the ever-burning light. The Pharos was destroyed by an earthquake in the 14th century A.D. Some people believe that on calm days its fragments still can be seen below the waters of the harbor.In every generation, man creates new marvels that can be added to the list of wonders of the world.自文明产生以来，人类就运用自己的技巧和才能制造了许多奇迹。

现代世界七大奇观〔The Seven Wonders of The Ancient World〕是被古希腊和古罗马的观察家们认可为现代遗址中最特殊的艺术品和修建作品。

关于周游世界的游览者来说，现代世界有七个值得观赏的伟大的人工修建。

以下的名单大约出现于公元6世纪，是目前较为被普遍接受的现代世界七大奇观名单：
1. 埃及金字塔The Great Pyramid of Khufu, Egyptians
2. 巴比伦空中花园Hanging Gardens of Babylon Babylonians
3. 奥林匹亚的宙斯大金像Temple of Artemis at Ephesus

6. 罗得斯岛的太阳神巨像Colossus of Rhodes, Hellenistic Civilization
7. 亚力山大港的索斯特拉塔斯灯塔Lighthouse of Alexandria, Hellenistic Civilization。

世界七大奇观是由马其顿王国（Macedonia，公元前4世纪中叶至前2世纪中叶）的亚历山大大帝（Alexander the Greater，公元前356-前323）统治时期建于西亚、北非及爱琴海地区的七处规模较大的雄伟建筑与雕刻品，被古希腊和古罗马的观察家们认可为古代遗迹中最非凡的艺术品和建筑作品。

世界七大奇观的名单有时会有所不同，以下以古代西顿（Sidon）作家安提帕特（Antipater，公元前398？-前319）在他的一本游记中所列举的七大奇观为准。

它不但被广泛使用而且还是标准的名单，七大奇观中除金字塔外，其他六个均未完整保存下来。

1.埃及金字塔（Pyramid）世界七大奇观之一。

金字塔是古代所建的一种方锥形建筑物，因其外形像汉语的“金”字，在中国译称“金字塔”。

墨西哥、希腊、苏丹等国都有金字塔，但名声最为显赫的是埃及的金字塔。

埃及金字塔是古埃及文明的代表作，是埃及国家的象征。

古埃及的金字塔目前保存下来的约有80座，是为古埃及法老（Pharaoh——古埃及国王的称号）修建的陵墓。

最大的一座是古埃及第四朝法老胡夫（Khufu）的金字塔，称为“大金字塔”（The Great Pyramid），位于开罗近郊吉萨（Giza），建于大约公元前27世纪。

它的底座成方形，每边长约232米，高约146米，用230余万块（每块重约2.5吨）巨石叠成。

塔内有墓室、石阶及甬道等结构。

据说建塔时，每天投入80万劳动力，历时30年方建成。

就当时的生产力水平而言，其设计与建筑水平已达到相当惊人的程度。

“大金字塔”附近建有法老哈夫拉（Khafra，约公元前20世纪）的金字塔及斯芬克斯巨型石雕像。

现存于吉萨的70余座金字塔大都残损破朽，墓室里的财宝也被盗劫一空。

2.巴比伦空中花园（Hanging Garden of Babylon）巴比伦空中花园在古巴比伦王国（今伊拉克南部）首府巴比伦城王宫内，是国王尼布甲尼撤二世（NebuchadnezzaⅡ，公元前604-公元前562）建造的。
