單元影視 Building the Great PyramidThe Great Pyramid of Giza (also called the Khufus Pyramid, Pyramid of Khufu, and Pyramid of Cheops) is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids in the Giza Necropolis bordering what is now Cairo, Egypt, and is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that survives substantially intact (完好無缺的). It is believed the pyramid was built as a tomb for Fourth Dynasty Egyptian King Khufu (Cheops in Greek) and constructed over a 20-year period concluding around 2560 BC. The Great Pyramid was the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years. Originally the Great Pyramid was covered by casing (包裝) stones that formed asmooth outer surface, and what is seen today is the underlying core structure. Some of the casing stones that once covered the structure can still be seen around the base. There have been varying scientific and alternative (可供選擇的) theories regarding the Great Pyramids construction techniques. Most accepted construction theories are based on the idea that it was built by moving huge stones from a quarry (采石場) and dragging and lifting them into place. Most pyramids have individual peculiarities (特色) which are as yet difficult to explain. For instance, in the Great Pyramid, as possibly in certain others, a large depression in the packing-blocks runs down the middle of each face, implying a line of extra-thick facing there. Though there is no special difficulty in arranging the blocks of a course in such a manner that they increase in size at the middle, there is no satisfactory explanation of the feature any more than there is of the girdle-blocks. The purpose for the concavity (中央凹陷) of the Great Pyramids remains a mystery and no satisfactory explanation for this feature has been offered. The indentation (刻痕) is so slight that any practical function is difficult to imagine.

How the masons did so in the allotted time long remained a mystery. 即使是以大金字塔的建造標(biāo)準(zhǔn)來看，手工完成兩百萬塊石頭的建造工作也是一項巨大的工程。石匠們是如何在規(guī)定時間內(nèi)完成這項工程的呢？這至今還是一個謎。 Our mother told us it must have been the King and that we should have bowed, because we owed him everything. But now, it seemed, everything that mattered to me had been taken away, and all in the name of the King. 我們的母親告訴我們那一定是國王，而我們必須向他鞠躬，因為我們的一切都是他賜予的。但是現(xiàn)在這一切對于我來說都失去了意義，包括所有“以國王之名”的事物。 What happens to us when we die? And what should that mean for us while we are alive? They are the greatest of all questions, and the Egyptians built the greatest of all monuments by way of an answer to them. 我們死后會發(fā)生什么？在我們還活著的時候那對我們又意味著什么？這是所有問題中最深奧的，然而古埃及人卻用建造這些偉大的遺跡的方式回答了這些問題。 When You BelieveMany nights weve prayedWith no proof anyone could _In our hearts a _ songWe barely _Now we are not _Although we know theres much to _ We were _ the mountains longBefore we knew we could Listen and sing 注 : 另 附 word 文 檔 。點 擊 此 處 鏈 接hearhopefulunderstoodafraid fearmoving There can be _ when you believeThough hope is frail, its hard to _Who knows what miracles you can achieveWhen you believeSomehow you willYou will when you _And this time of fearWhen prayer so often proves in vainHope is like the _ birdsTo swiftly flown away miracles killbelievesummer Now Im _ hereMy heart so full I cant _Seeking faith and speaking wordsI _ thought Id sayThere can be miracles when you believe _ hope is frail, its hard to killWho knows what miracles you can achieve When you believeSomehow you willYou will when you believe standing explainneverThough They dont know this _ when you ask themAnd its _ to give in to your fearBut when youre blinded by your _You can see your way through the rainMore of us still _ your adviceSays nothings there we needThere can be miracles when you believe Though hope is frail, its _ to kill answereasy painreceive hard Who knows what miracles you can achieve When you believe_ you willNow you willYou will when you believeYou will when you believeJust believeJust believeYou will when you believe Somehow
