  5. Listening (P41) Task 1: Lead-in • Have you ever heard of Aswan Dam in Egypt? What is it used for? • (2) Do you know there is a similar project being carried out in China?

  6. Abu Simbel is a set of two temples near the border of Egypt with Sudan. It was constructed for the pharaoh Ramesses II (拉美西斯二世 )who reigned for 67 years during the 13th century BC (19th Dynasty).

  7. The temples were cut from the rock and shifted to higher ground in the 1960s as the waters of Lake Nasser began to rise following completion of the Aswan High Dam.

  8. Now listen to Part A and find out what happened when a dam was built in Egypt. Number the key words as you hear them. 1 □ Aswan High Dam □ River Nile 3 □ Abu Simbel □ electricity 5 2 4 □ covered by water □ floods 6 □ engineers □ UNESCO 7

  9. Now listen to Part B and number the key words as you hear them. 1 □ move the temple □ 1,900 workers 3 □ stone by stone □ more than $70,000,000 2 6 5 7 □ worth □ rebuild 8 □ in 1966 □ four years 4

  10. Listen to Part A and Part B again and then answer the questions. • Why did Abu Simbel need to be moved and rebuilt? • Abu Simbel needed to be moved and rebuilt because otherwise it would have been covered by the water when the dam was completed.

  11. 2. How did the engineers solve the problem? Was it successful? How do you know? The solved this problem by moving the statues. They marked every stone with a number and took the statues apart. Then they reassembled them in another site. It was very successful because many tourists come to visit Abu Simbel which looks as impressive as it did in its original site.

  12. Listening text Part A The Aswan High Dam in Egypt is one of the biggest dams in the world.

  13. It provides half of Egypt’s electricity. However, it caused problems while it was being built. There were many temples along the River Nile. It was clear that when the dam was finished many of them would be covered by water. One of the most important of these temples is Abu Simbel, which was

  14. built in the 13th century BC. It was made of rock and at the entrance there are four large stone persons, each twenty metres high. Nobody wanted the beautiful temple of Abu Simbel to disappear but they needed the dam. Finally, the engineers of UNESCO studied the problem and found a way to rescue the temple.

  15. Part B The engineers agreed to move Abu Simbel temple stone by stone and build it again above the waters of the dam. It took 1,900 workers four years to rebuild the temple in the 1960s. It cost more than seventy million US dollars. However, it was worth it. The Aswan High Dam was finished in 1966.

  16. Ever since then Abu Simbel has been one of the most beautiful temples in Egypt. It is still in a quiet and beautiful place which visitors are glad to visit.

  17. Listening task

  18. Task 1: Lead-in • What do you know about the Forbidden City in Beijing? • (2) When was it built? What was it used for?

  19. The Forbidden City has a history of 600 years. The large scale construction of the palace extended from 1406 to 1420. It’s totally 24 emperors of the Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty rule here, and was off-limits for the common people.

  20. Listen to the dialogue and summarize the main idea in one sentence. The Forbidden City (Imperial Palace and now the Palace Museum) in the heart of Beijing is the largest and most complete imperial palace and ancient building complex in China, and the world at large. Its construction began in 1406 and was completed 14 years later, having a history so far of nearly 600 years.

  21. 24 emperors from the Ming and Qing(1644-1911) dynasties lived and ruled China from there. Most of the buildings in the Forbidden City were rebuilt many times, although they maintained the original architectural style…

  22. Answer key for Exercise 3: It was because ordinary people were never allowed into the palace while the emperors ruled China. 9,999.

  23. 1. Nice is a special number in Chinese culture.

  24. Nearly 600 years odl. Fourteen Emperors from the Ming Dynasty and ten from the Qing Dynasty. A national museum.

  25. Listening text Visiting the Forbidden City Wen Hui is going to take her friend, Sally Jones, to visit the Forbidden City in Beijing. (Sally Jones=S; Wen Hui=W) Part A S: Oh, Wen Hui, I’ve always wanted to see the Forbidden City. It sounds so exciting.

  26. I wonder why it’s called that? W: It was because ordinary people like us, were never allowed into the Palace while the emperors ruled China. S: So who was allowed in? W: Well, the Emperor’s family, high state officials, and servants of the emperor.

  27. S: Mmm, I’ve heard that it’s one of the largest palace in the world. How big is it? W: Well, there were 9,999 rooms when it was built. S: 9,999 rooms! That’s so strange! Why not 10,000? W: There are two reasons. First, nine is special number in Chinese culture.

  28. Second, it’s said that the Emperor in Heaven has 10,000 rooms so the Emperor on Earth can not have so many. It wouldn’t show respect. S: Oh, I see…

  29. Part B S: How many Emperors lived there altogether? W: Fourteen Emperors from the Ming Dynasty and ten from the Qing Dynasty. They lived in it for about 500 years still the last Emperors left it in 1924.

  30. S: So I think it was built in the fifteen century. W: Oh yes. After it was finished, the capital of China moved to Beijing. S: Mmm, I read it in the newspaper that the Palace is repaired and redecorated very often.

  31. W: Yes, there is now a programme of repairs going on. It was will last until 2020. S: Goodness! Oh, it that because the palace is made of wood? You know, we also repair our castles in England, but they don’t take so long because the castles are made of stone.

  32. W: Yes, I suppose so. Wooden structures need more work to protect them. S: But that’s one of the reasons why it’s so special I’ve heard that it’s made of wood without even one nail. W: Yes, it’s a great example of ancient Chinese architecture and it’s now a national museum. It is also called the Palace Museum…
