张家界中英文介绍.doc

峰 张家界最奇特的自然景观，是密集、连片、绿丛覆盖的石英砂岩峰林。 峰林的开成，经历了漫长的历史阶段。十五亿年前的地槽阶段初期，冲入海槽沉积物中的大量石英砂粒，为之提供原始原料。中期出现造山运动，沉积物升露海面开成山脉。 张家界有“三千奇峰”之美称。由于峰大小高低不一，有的峰麓附峰、峰腰生峰、峰顶分峰，有的“横看成岭侧成峰”，有的却难以定出峰的标准。峰林峰基均为石英砂岩，相对高度100米300米。1992年5月，世界自然遗产考察官员桑塞尔、卢卡斯两位博士对张家界峰林实地考察后作了这样的评语“以其成簇的砂岩石峰，可以与美国本部的几个国家公园及纪念物相比……”有人还认为“大部分山峰展现出美国及澳大利亚遗产地要更垂直的轮廓。”因此，张家界石英砂岩峰林具有垄断性世界地位。 The most fantastic sight in Zhangjiajie is quartz sand rock hoodoos,dense,glomerate,and covers with green boskage. The forming of hoodoos took a very long time historic phase,and the original material came from a large number of quartz sand granules flushed into the marine sediments at the initial geosynclinal stage 1.5 billion years ago.Later at the moddle stage,as the orogeny occurred,thoes esdiments moved up and eventually formed the mountains. Zhangjiajie has a good name of “Three thousand miraculous peaks”,Due the different sizes and heights of those peaks,some have peaks attached at the foot or peaks grew at the sideor peaks intersected at the summit,some look like mountain range when viewed crossly but look like peaks when viewes sideways,and some are difficult to tell whether or not they are peaks.Both peaks and foundations are composed of quartz sand rock with relative height between 100m and 300m.In May 1992,Dr.Sangcel and Dr.Lucas,inspection officer of world natural heritage,made a field investigation to the hoodoos in Zhangjiajie,and the they made following comments;the glomerate sandstone peaks are comparable with several National Parks and monuments in the west of America……”.Some people believe “most of peaks display more vertical contour than those in the heritage places in Ameroca and Australia.therefore,the quartz sandstone hoodoos in Zhangjidjie is in possession of monopolizing status in the word. 水 张家界的山令人拍案叫绝，而这里的水则令人心旷神怡。山与水的相互交映，描绘出一幅“山因水更奇，水因山更秀”的幽美意境。 风景区有“水八百”之说，确切的说，较大的溪流有48条。向东流的金鞭溪和索溪贯穿景区，并汇有琵琶溪、花溪、沙刀溪、龙尾溪、矿洞溪等溪流，这些涓涓溪流，造成许多山体被深切成狭长的纵横溃沟、峡谷。自西向东，越来越发育，从而形成了大有天池及宝峰湖、索溪湖、小到紫草潭、跳鱼潭等泉潭。十里画廓、沙刀沟、金鞭溪等构成了一幅清丽的水景图
