给外国人介绍长城作文800字【一】
今天，我们来到了著名的八达岭长城。
远远地，我就看见一座座大山高高地耸入云间，山峰上郁郁葱葱，满眼尽是绿色的树木，长城像一条巨龙蜿蜒盘旋在崇山峻岭之间，雄伟壮观。
由于登长城的人太多，我们的时间又有限，所以我选择了坐索道上山。我们坐在一个好像大铁皮箱子的东西里面，上面吊着一根粗粗的、十分结实大铁绳子，在一根由长城下面的索道口到第七个城楼那的绳子上面滑行。我和妈妈都非常喜欢这样惊险刺激的感觉，我觉得开始时比较平稳，我们慢悠悠地前进着，忽然，索道的速度快了起来，我们在半空中好像飞了起来，许多人都吓得尖叫起来。索道的速度更快了，而且不时的“嘣噔”一下，像是在跳着舞。我往下看了看，好刺激呀，下面是万丈深渊，大树密密麻麻、郁郁葱葱的，而且杂草丛生，到处都点缀着紫色的小花。我往下面看的时候不禁十分害怕会掉下去，可我又不想错过这美丽的景色，就壮着胆子睁大眼睛欣赏。
我还没有坐够，就到了第七个城楼那里。听导游说，在第八个城楼那里有一个好汉碑，上面写着“不到长城非好汉”，我已经到了长城了，就一定要坚持爬到那里。我远远一看，那上面人山人海，黑压压的一片，我心想：这些人比我从小到大看到的人还要多呢！
而且通往上面的道路十分陡峭，斜坡的角度十分大，如果不扶着栏杆，说不定还会摔下去呢！我们一步一步，小心翼翼地把着栏杆慢慢地向上爬，一直注意着自己的脚下面的路，生怕发生什么意外。
这时，我想起我们语文书上的《长城》这一课，终于理解到了古代的劳动人民们为了修筑长城，费了多大的力气，多少的汗水呀！
快到上面的城楼了，我看见那里里三层外三层的人们，为了安全，我们没有再往里挤。唉，到了长城却没能看见这个好汉碑，我觉得十分可惜。但是，能见到举世闻名的万里长城，我还是特别高兴！

秋高气爽，晴空万里。早秋的北京，微风吹过感到一丝丝凉意。一大早我们就来到举世闻名的长城。
我们登上长城，爬到了一个较高的烽火台，此刻我已是汗流浃背。我满怀豪情吟颂着的诗句：“不到长城非好汉”。放眼向四周望去，长城就像一条巨龙，蜿蜒盘旋在崇山峻岭之中，穿过苍莽的树林，翻越陡峭的岩石，从山海关一直延伸到嘉峪关，越过了好几个省，因此它得到了“万里长城”的美称。据历史记载，有二十多个诸侯国和封建王朝修筑过长城，若把各个时代修筑的.长城加起来大约有十万里以上。其中秦、汉、明三个朝代修筑的长城都超过了一万里。
我们登上长城，踏着长城的石阶，扶着城墙上的栏杆，一会儿缓，一会儿急。每隔大约300米就有一座烽火台。据说古时候，只要看见了敌军就点火，靠点火来传递信息。
我又想起了一个小故事，讲的是古时候修建嘉峪关城时需要成千上万块长2米、宽0.5米、厚0.3米的石条，人抬不起，车拉不上，且山高路远，无法运输。眼看隆冬季节就要到了，石条还没有从山里运出一块，这时有人想到了一个好办法：等到冬季到来后，众人从山上往嘉峪关城修一条路，在路面上泼水，寒风吹过，结成一条冰道，然后把石条放在冰道上滑行，非常顺利地把石条运到了嘉峪关城下。是劳动人民的汗和智慧凝结成了这条高大雄伟的万里长城!
两千年来，万里长城减缓了战争的破坏，保护了中原地区的农耕，促进了社会经济的发展。
据说从太空回望，万里长城是地球上唯一能望得见的人工工程。

长城是中华文明的瑰宝，是世界文化遗产之一，也是与我国的“国山”泰山、埃及金字塔齐名的建筑，还是人类的奇迹。在遥远的两千多年前，是劳动人民以肉之躯修筑了万里长城。长城是中国古代人民智慧的结晶，更是中华民族的象征。春秋战国时期，各国诸侯为了防御别国入侵，修筑烽火台，并用城墙连接起来，形成了最早的长城。以后历代君王几乎都加固增修长城。它因长达几万里，故又称作“万里长城”。据记载，秦始皇使用了近百万劳动力修筑长城，占全国总人口的二十分之一。
当时没有任何机械，全部劳动都由人力完成，工作环境又是崇山峻岭、峭壁深壑，十分艰难。长城东起山海关，西至甘肃嘉峪关，东至鸭绿江。从东向西行经10个省区市。长城的总长度为8851800米，其中人工墙体长度为6254239.662米，堑壕和天然形成长度为2594234.2265米。长城始建于春秋战国时期，历史达2000多年，总长度达532万米以上。我们今天所指的万里长城多指明代修建的长城，它西起中国西部甘肃省的嘉峪关，东到中国东北辽宁省的鸭绿江边，长635万米。它像一条矫健的巨龙，越峻岭，经绝壁，穿草原，跨沙漠，起伏在崇山峻岭之巅，黄河彼岸和渤海之滨。古今中外，凡到过长城的人无不惊叹它的磅礴气势、宏伟规模和艰巨工程。长城是一座稀世珍宝，也是艺术非凡的文物古迹，它象征着中华民族坚不可摧永存于世的伟大意志和力量，是中华民族的骄傲，也是整个世界的骄傲。

Dear Live Oak classmates,
How are you all? How time flies! It has been 8 months since I came back to China. Every time I look up at the photograph of our grade that was taken by Brittany’s mother and bears the signature of every one of you (this picture is now hanging up on the wall above our dining table, I cannot help thinking of you and the happy time we spent together. I do miss you often.
I am doing fine here in China and I like my present school life as much as I liked Live Oak. My classmates and teachers are very good to me, too. I have already caught up with my classmates in all the school lessons. Thanks to the Live Oak school education, I am now far ahead of my classmates in English, and I’m still doing a lot of English reading to keep up my English.
In the beginning of this semester, I was chosen to attend the School Robotics Team to practice for the robotics competition on behalf of my school. It’s a really big privilege, and I like it very much, because in my school there are one thousand and four hundred students and there are only four chosen. In the robotics practice, I learn to cooperate with my teammates and I need the big financial support from the school, because one single robot costs 50 thousand yuan. So it’s not a project that one person could do. We need to have team spirit as what we did in our Live Oak football game. On August 8, our school attended the national robot competition held in Xining, Qinghai, witch is neighboring Tibet. After two days’ competition, our team got a silver medal. During one of the days when we had no game, we went to the famous Qinghai Lake. It was so beautiful. It looked like an ocean because it was so large. Its water had many colors, blue, green, and purple, due to the ultraviolet rays.
I don’t go to church on Sundays in China, but I read the Bible with my mom every night. If we have time, we sing hymns too. God listens to my prayers. We have just bought a car. When our car was just two days old, my dad had parked the car just one centimeter away from the car next to ours. We were so worried that our new car would be scratched if the other car moved. In the evening, I prayed to God asking God to save our car. The next morning, we found our car in the parking lot safe and sound. And we were so thankful to God.
Although I have so much fun in China, I still miss the time I had in the U.S. Mrs. Moffat, thank you for letting me study in Live Oak, so that I have such a wonderful experience in my life. Mrs. Moore, I can still remember the big hug that you gave me the first time I visited Live Oak. How is Andrew doing? Has he passed all his surgeries? Some days ago, I have visited “Andrew’s Update” but I haven’t seen any updates. I hope that he is feeling better. Mrs. Brummeler, thank you for your patient help with my English in the first month when the new school life was tough for me and I could only understand a little bit of what was going on in class. Knox, thank you for being my first friend to offer help to me in class and letting me copy everything from your notes, including some small errors sometimes J. Hudson, how are you doing in your sports? I believe you are still the leader of the Live Oak Falcons. Joel, I miss the time that we were sharing grapes together at lunch time and we called that “Jump Grapes”. Andrew, hope you are still going to be the King at this year’s Christmas Nativity. And if you do, I hope you will have a good royal robe that you like. Ethan and Jordan, I will never forget that fabulous birthday party we boys had in the forest. Ethan, I thank you for the beautiful football that your cousin gave me. I have displayed it on the top of my bookshelf. Jordan, I am still keeping the two- dollar note that you gave me and it serves as my bookmark. Joshua, I thank you and your mom for taking me to school every day. I enjoyed the time when we were playing together. l wish we would be still playing ping-pong and pool together in that game room. Will, I remember that we had a fun time together when Mrs. Browning took us all together in her van to Jordan and Ethan’s birthday party. Luke, I miss the time when we were playing World War Ⅱ together at your house. I also remember the time when we were playing basketball together in the Baylor SLC and my mom said that you are a very nice and polite boy. Keegan, my mom had given her email address to your mom. If you ever come to China, please do come to Xiamen and visit me. Jerome, I really miss the time when we were playing tag in the playground. Caleb, I still remember that in recess time, you were always doing your Latin homework with Thomas as your “tutor” hanging on the “Monkey Bar” in the playground.
Dear girls, incase this letter would be too long, I’m not going to write to each of you. But do remember, I miss you as much as I miss the guys.
Hope all of you are doing well in your fifth grade life. I wish all of you can come to China someday in the near future. I look forward to being your host and showing you around my beautiful city.
I’d love to hear from you about anything fun in your life and our Live Oak Classical School.
Sincerely,
Joseph

万里长城一次整理书籍的时候，我意外得到了一张长城邮票。长城是我国著名的宏伟的名胜古迹之一，在这条长城上曾经发生了许许多多光荣的历史。现在我们来谈谈关于长城的古老故事吧。
距现在两千多年前的战国时代，各个诸侯国之间战争不断。而当时打仗主要依靠步兵，用泥土筑成一道城墙，便足够抵挡外来侵犯的那些敌人。所以，每个国家都会有自己的城墙。同时，在北方的那些游牧民族，古代叫他们匈奴，同样经常要南下去侵略，因此秦、赵、燕等国先后都在自己的北方边境上建造了城墙。
公元前221年，秦始皇终于统一中国派大将蒙恬带领军队去驱逐匈奴人，而且把各国的城墙都连接起来，再扩建加固。这样的话，在中国的北方土地上，便出现了一座壮观的万里长城。万里长城的存在，的确保护了北方地区人民及财产的安全。现在，打仗已经远离我们而去了，但是呢用数百万士兵和穷苦百姓用呕心沥搭建的长城被已经写进中国历史的历史书中。每一个字都闪烁着能感动人心的光辉们一行字中都包含民族液的一股强大的不怕困难的力量。
现在，万里长城现在成了旅游的景点，它包含着中华人民对祖国的热爱和喜庆。每年都有多少中华儿女到长城观光旅行，欣赏它的美丽风景，中国有有一句关于长城的古话“不到长城非好汉”我爱这张邮票！
