哈尔滨英文导游词:松花江

2009-07-30 21:50阅读:
松花江是哈尔滨的母亲河,也是旅游者必然会注意到的沿途景色之一。就算你不主动讲,游客也会追着问。关于松花江的讲解,有些导游讲什么白龙黑龙的故事。我不会讲那个故事,更不会用英语讲。所以,我主要讲侧重讲解松花江的自然与人文状况。
我对于松花江的讲解,一般是在去江北太阳岛的途中开始的。当车刚到松花江公路大桥时,就开始把话题转移到松花江上,先讲公路大桥,然后从自然讲到人文。松花江公路桥经常堵车,所以车行缓慢。当车通过大桥后,关于松花江的讲述基本就能结束了。
不止十个客人问我,从松花江能不能到俄罗斯的哈巴罗夫斯克?这让我颇感意外。还有人问我有没有哈尔滨直达海参崴的火车。你们说,有吗?

Songhua River
(串词)
A famous river divides Harbin into the north and the south part, along its bank formed two amazing riverside parks. That is the Mother River of Harbin—Songhua River.
(松花江的自然状况)
Songhua
River, ranks the fifth longest river in China, runs about 1,897 kilometers long and covers a drainage area of 545,600 square kilometers. The source of the river is a crater lake called Heavenly Lake with an elevation of 2,189 meters at the top of the Changbai Mountain, which borders North Korea in China’s Jilin Province. The water falls down from the Heavenly Lake and forms a waterfall, as if the water rushes down from haven. Hence the local Manchu inhabitant called it “Heavenly Lake” in meaning, “Songga-liwula” in pronunciation. Now we transliterate into Chinese Songhua River.
It is 4 meters in depth and 1 kilometer in width on average in Harbin sector. Songhua River has more than 900 branches in large and small size. The river is frozen over from November to April the nest year. the period of freezing weather is 135 days.
(松花江上的历史事件)
As the largest branch of the Heilong River, Songhua River winding through Harbin for 117 kilometers and served as an important artery for the development of the city. In the 17th century, under the reign of Emperor Kangxi, naval ships were stationed along these areas, and resisted the invading Russian enemy successfully. After that, in 1689, Sino-Russian Treaty of Nerchinsk was signed. That is the first border agreement between the Qing government and the imperial Russian government. On June 6th, 1898, a Russia warship taken on the engineers and surveyors to made a topographic map for building the China-East Railway. There landing point is where the Flood Control Monument located now. From then on, the river became busy and lots of material needed for build the railway were transported through this River and then, a modern city was erected at the south bank of Songhua River.
(松花江上的桥)
Three big bridges have been built over the river, and one of them connected the south bank of Harbin and Sun Island was built in 1983 and opened to traffic in 1986. This bridge approach or the leading bridge on the south bank of the Songhua River was designed to have two circles. So the whole bridge was like a scissors and the bridge approach is like the scissors’ handle.
(总结)
The Songhua River in winter is no less bustling than a summer bathing beach. It’s frozen hard with ice nearly one meter thick, turning it into a huge playground for all kinds of ice sports. You can go skating and ice sailing, or ride in ice junks or horse-drawn sleighs. But if you want to do something really different, why not get into a swimming costume and join those crazy people, young and old, diving and swimming in a pool of icy water dug out of the frozen river?
