答案
Stonehenge is Britain’s greatest notional icon.It symbolizes mystery and power.Today,people still doesn’t know how this comes from.Some people guessed that it was a temple made to worship the ancient earth deities.There also are some people believed that it was a sacred site for the burial of high-ranking citizens from the societies of long time ago.“Archaeologists think that the standing stones were erected around 3200 BC and the surrounding circular earth bank and ditch,which constitute the earliest phase of the monument,have been dated to about 3100 BC.”(Wikipedia,Stonehege,paragraph1) The stones have fallen or been removed by road repair.The stones stood and form a circle.The Stonehenge used a lot of time,requiring commitment and vast amounts of manual labor.It constructed approximately five thousands years ago.
Nearly 300 miles long,up to 18 miles across and a stomach-dropping 4000 vertical feet down,the 8th new wonder:the majestic Grand Canyon.
Gazing on its glory,President Theodore Roosevelt called the Grand Canyon "a natural wonder … absolutely unparalleled throughout the rest of the world."
He urged Americans to preserve what he described as the "wonderful grandeur,the sublimity,the great loneliness and beauty of the canyon."
More than a hundred years later,it's still easy to see why so many of the 5 million annual visitors call the Grand Canyon a wonder.
“All you can pick up when you are looking at this is…
“Thank you,God.”
“It’s an awesome thing.”
“Wow…”
“There was a magic,and it is the world,boy.”
The canyon stretches as far as the eye can see and it also reaches back in time.
Some 5 or 6 million years ago,the Colorado River raged through this land,carving out the massive canyon we see today,exposing even older layers of rock previously buried.Geologists say some are 2,000 million years old.
Native Americans were the first people to make these rocky walls their home about 12,000 years ago.
Today the Hualapi and Havasupai Indians reside deep in the canyon,balancing age-old traditions with modernity.There are no roads to this village; mules carry the mail here.
But at the same time,the tribes are engineering a gravity-defying skywalk that promises an unprecedented view over the canyon early next year.
The bald eagle,another longtime resident of the Grand Canyon,and appropriately wild and majestic setting for this endangered American icon.
At the bottom of the canyon winds the Colorado River,boasting some of the most intense big water rafting in the world.
Carved into a corner of the Arizona plains,the great roaring river,towering rock formations and breathtaking vastness of the Grand Canyon serve as a monument to the bold and enduring spirit of America.
“There is no place like it.”
“(The Grand Canyon is…) one of God’s greatest creations,I think
