If I were to recommend the must-see city for a visitor to China, I would undoubtedly come up with “Beijing”. Several reasons may account for my choice. Initially, the city of Beijing has a history of over 3,000 years and was the capital of several dynasties, thus boasting a rich legacy of ancient Chinese architecture and culture. Beijing is blessed with numerous tourist destinations of tremendous historical importance. These include the Great Wall, a famous line of defense; the Forbidden City, an enormous palace compound; the Temple of Heaven, a fascinating site of imperial worship; the Summer Palace, a wonderful imperial garden etc. Secondly, standing side by side with those fabulous symbols of the imperial past are artistic modern buildings such as the Olympic Village, the Water Cube and Bird Nest Stadium, as well as the characteristic Siheyuans and Hutongs ,the windows to Beijings old ways of life. Last but not least, as the essence and miniature of Chinese culture, Beijing Opera incorporates the advantages of local opera and folk melody, prevailing in every corner of China. With its exposure to the Western world, many foreigners begin to fall in love with it and also have the opportunity to feast their eyes on the other forms of arts. Since Beijing is both historic and dynamic, my foreign friend can taste the historic flavor as well as enjoy the modern arts. I m sure that my foreign friend will be deeply impressed, and that it must be a wonderful and unforgettable experience for him/her. 如果让我想外国游客推荐不可错过的中国城市的话，我肯定会首选北京。 有几个原因可以解释我的选择，北京拥有多达 3000 年的历史的七朝古都，以拥有古迹和 悠久的历史引以为荣。 北京拥有众多具有重要历史意义的旅游目的地。 这其中包括著名的防 御外族入侵的长城，规模宏大的宫殿群紫禁城，迷人的皇家祭祀用的天坛，极佳的皇家园林 颐和园等等。其次，与此地卓越的皇家标志性建筑并存的有极富艺术感的现代建筑，例如奥 运村，鸟巢体育馆及其水立方。此外在北京还有独具特色的四合院和胡同，透过四合院和胡 同，人们可以了解北京人旧式的生活方式。最后，京剧是我国的国粹，是中国文化的缩影， 它融合了地方戏曲和民歌的特点，深受国人喜爱。随着中国艺术在西方国家的展现，京剧在 国外也逐渐受到青睐。 北京是古老文化与现代活力的融合， 我的外国朋友会品味历史的味道并且享受现代艺术。 我深信我的外国朋友会有更深入的了解和认识，这必将是一次美妙而令人难忘的旅游。 2014 年年 6 月英语四级月英语四级(第第二二套）套）范文及翻译范文及翻译 Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the following question.
