金门大桥是世界著名大桥之一,被誉为近代桥梁工程的一项奇迹。
它座落于美国加利福尼亚州的金门海峡之上。大桥两端各有一座高1124英尺的钢塔,钢塔高出水面的部分为746英尺,相当于70层楼高;两座钢塔间悬挂着两条直径为36.5英寸的钢索,大桥就是凭借着两条钢索高悬半空。钢塔间的大桥跨度为4200英尺,是世界大桥中少见的最长跨度之一。桥孔高200英尺,大型船只也能畅行无阻。大桥还向两端延伸出去,使整个大桥全长达到6500英尺,为此又修建了两座辅助钢塔,使大桥更加雄伟壮观。
金门大桥被认为是旧金山的象征。
Golden Gate Bridge is one of the world-famous bridge, a bridge project as a modern miracle.
It is located in California, on the Golden Gate Strait. The bridge at either end of a 1124 feet high steel tower, steel tower above the water surface of 746 feet for some, which is equivalent to 70-story building; two steel tower between the two hanging with a diameter of 36.5 inches of steel cables, the bridge is With two steel cables hanging mid-air. Steel tower between the bridge span to 4200 feet, is one of the world's longest bridge span in one of the rare. Bridge opening 200 feet high, large ships can pass unimpeded. Also be extended at both ends of the bridge to go out, the entire bridge to reach a total length of 6500 feet, and end the construction of the two auxiliary steel towers, the bridge so that the more magnificent.
Golden Gate Bridge is considered a symbol of San Francisco.
悉尼歌剧院是世上最著名的建筑之一。虽然这项建筑之开放了三十年,但是它是被公认的世上最与众不同的现代建筑。悉尼歌剧院是澳大利亚的象征,就像金字塔是埃及的象征一样。
建造歌剧院用了6 625平方米的玻璃和645千米的电缆线。它有1 000间房间。它长185米,宽20米。歌剧院楼顶的部分大约重15吨。在楼顶上,有1百万块砖。每年它能接待旅游团20万人。
但你知道歌剧院的设计者是丹麦著名的建筑师——约翰•伍松吗?在50年代,澳大利亚*申请并建立了悉尼歌剧院工程基金,并举行了一个歌剧院设计比赛。伍松用了数年时间反复修改设计图纸并在1961年解决了如何搭建出特色来——帆状屋顶。这个别树一帜的屋顶造成了轰动。1966年情况变得危急,伍松辞去了任务。但是在1973年,这项建筑还是被其它建筑师所完工。1973年10月20日,歌剧院由伊丽莎白女王宣布对外开放。
歌剧院延伸到海港*。从一艘渡轮或一架飞机上看,歌剧院雄伟的空中轮廓线,碧蓝碧蓝的水和悉尼的海港大桥,是那么漂亮。
Sydney Opera House(悉尼歌剧院)
The Sydney Opera House is one of the most famous buildings in the world.It is considered to be one of the most recognizable images of the modern world although the building has been open for only about 30 years.The Sydney Opera House is as representative of Australia as the pyramids are of Egypt.
6 225 square meters of glass and 645 kilometers of electric cable were used to build the Opera House.It includes 1 000 rooms.It is 185 meters long and 120 meters wide.The building’s roof sections weight about 15 tons.There are 1 million tiles on the roof.It provides guided tours to 200 000 people each year.
But do you know the Opera House with a roof was designed by a famous Danish architect,John Utzon?In the late 1950s the Australian Government established an appeal fund to finance for the construction of the Sydney Opera House,and concted a competition for its design was chosen. Utzon spent a few years reworking the design and it was 1961 before he had solved the problem of how to build the distinguishing feature—the sails of the roof.The venture experienced cost blowouts. In 1966 the situation reached crisis point and Utzon resigned from the project.The building was finally competed by others in 1973.Sydney Opera House was opened by Queen Elizabeth on 20th October 1973.
The Opera House reaches out into the harbour.Seen from the air or a ferry,the skyline of the Sydney Opera Hose,the blue water of the harbour and the Sydney Harbour Bridge,so beautiful.
大本钟
大笨钟,或大本钟(Big Ben),即威斯敏斯特宫钟塔,英国国会会议厅附属的钟楼 (Clock Tower) 的大报时钟的昵称。是坐落在英国伦敦泰晤士河畔的一座钟楼,是伦敦的标志性建筑之一。钟楼高95米,钟直径9英尺,重13.5吨。每15分钟响一次。
大笨钟的命名来源众说纷纭,有一种说法称大本钟的名字来自于本杰明·豪尔爵士。
大钟于1858年4月10日建成,是英国最大的钟。塔起码有320英尺高(约合97.5米),分针有14英尺长(约合4.27米),大笨钟用人工发条,国会开会期间,钟面会发出光芒,每隔一小时报时一次。
每年的夏季与冬天时间转换时会把钟停止,进行零件的修补、交换,钟的调音等。
文化
在英国,大本钟是人们庆祝新年的重点地方,收音机和电视都会播出它的钟声来迎接新一年的开始。同样地,在阵亡将士纪念日,大本钟钟声的传出表示第11个月的第11天的第11个小时及2分钟的默哀开始。
独立电视新闻的“十时新闻报告”以一连串的大本钟钟声作新闻预告的配乐作开始已很多年。大本钟的钟声今天仍会用于所有独立电视新闻 新闻快报的新闻预告,及威斯敏斯特宫大本钟的钟面图。从1923年12月31日开始,大本钟的钟响亦可在于英国广播公司第四台的一些新闻布告(6时正、半晚及星期天的晚上10时正)的一小时前及英国广播公司国际广播部听到。钟声是经由长期设置在钟楼内而连接著广播大楼的扩音器传送的。
大本钟可用来说明光速和音速的分别。如果一个人到了伦敦并站在钟楼下,他会听到大本钟的钟声比那钟被敲响时的时间慢约是六分之一秒(假定钟在高55米之处)。可是如果把一个扩音器放在钟附近并用无线电把钟声传至很远的地方(像纽约市或香港般),那地方会比那站在钟楼下的人更早听到钟声。事实上,如果接收者把那钟声发回给在地面的那观察者,无线电传送那钟声会比那观察者听到真正钟声时更快。(例如:纽约市距伦敦5,562公里,而无线电会在0.018552秒内把钟声传至纽约市;来回共需0.037105秒,但原来的钟声却需0.1616秒才能达到地面)
钟楼的图像亦曾被用作伦敦电影的标志。
Clock Tower, Palace of Westminster
The Clock Tower is a turret clock structure at the north-eastern end of the Houses of Parliament building in Westminster, London, England. It is popularly known as Big Ben, but this name is actually a nickname for the clock‘s main bell. The tower has also been referred to as St. Stephen‘s Tower or The Tower of Big Ben, in reference to its bell.
Structure
The tower was raised as a part of Charles Barry‘s design for a new palace, after the old Palace of Westminster was destroyed by fire on the night of October 16, 1834. The tower is designed in the Victorian Gothic style, and is 96.3 metres (316 feet) high.
The first 61 metres (250 feet) of the structure is the clock tower, consisting of brickwork with stone cladding; the remainder of the tower‘s height is a framed spire of cast iron. The tower is founded on a 15 by 15 metre (49 by 49 foot) raft, made of 3-metre
法国巴黎埃菲尔铁塔或法国著名建筑“英文”简介
Eiffel Tower
Named after its designer, engineer Gustave Eiffel, the Eiffel Tower is the tallest building in Paris.[1] More than 200,000,000 have visited the tower since its construction in 1889,[2] including 6,719,200 in 2006,[3] making it the most visited paid monument in the world.[4][5] Including the 24 m (79 ft) antenna, the structure is 325 m (1,063 ft) high (since 2000), which is equivalent to about 81 levels in a conventional building.
When the tower was completed in 1889 it was the world's tallest tower — a title it retained until 1930 when New York City's Chrysler Building (319 m — 1,047 ft tall) was completed.[6] The tower is now the fifth-tallest structure in France and the tallest structure in Paris, with the second-tallest being the Tour Montparnasse (210 m — 689 ft), although that will soon be surpassed by Tour AXA (225.11 m — 738.36 ft).
The metal structure of the Eiffel Tower weighs 7,300 tonnes while the entire structure including non-metal components is approximately 10,000 tonnes. Depending on the ambient temperature, the top of the tower may shift away from the sun by up to 18 cm (7 in) because of thermal expansion of the metal on the side facing the sun. The tower also sways 6–7 cm (2–3 in) in the wind.[3] As demonstration of the economy of design, if the 7300 tonnes of the metal structure were melted down it would fill the 125 meter square base to a depth of only 6 cm (2.36 in), assuming a density of the metal to be 7.8 tonnes per cubic meter. The tower has a mass less than the mass of the air contained in a cylinder of the same dimensions,[7] that is 324 meters high and 88.3 meters in radius. The weight of the tower is 10,100 tonnes compared to 10,265 tonnes of air.
The first and second levels are accessible by stairways and lifts. A ticket booth at the south tower base sells tickets to access the stairs which begin at that location. At the first platform the stairs continue up from the east tower and the third level summit is only accessible by lift. From the first or second platform the stairs are open for anyone to ascend or descend regardless of whether they have purchased a lift ticket or stair ticket. The actual count of stairs includes 9 steps to the ticket booth at the base, 328 steps to the first level, 340 steps to the second level and 18 steps to the lift platform on the second level. When exiting the lift at the third level there are 15 more steps to ascend to the upper observation platform. The step count is printed periodically on the side of the stairs to give an indication of progress of ascent. The majority of the ascent allows for an unhindered view of the area directly beneath and around the tower although some short stretches of the stairway are enclosed.
Maintenance of the tower includes applying 50 to 60 tonnes of paint every seven years to protect it from rust. In order to maintain a uniform appearance to an observer on the ground, three separate colors of paint are used on the tower, with the darkest on the bottom and the lightest at the top. On occasion the colour of the paint is changed; the tower is currently painted a shade of brownish-grey.[8] On the first floor there are interactive consoles hosting a poll for the colour to use for a future session of painting. The co-architects of the Eiffel Tower are Emile Nouguier, Maurice Koechlin and Stephen Sauvestre.[9]
埃菲尔铁塔从1887年起建,分为三楼,分别在离地面57.6米、115.7米和276.1米处,其中一、二楼设有餐厅,第三楼建有观景台,从塔座到塔顶共有1711级阶梯,共享去钢铁7000吨,12000个金属部件,250万只铆钉,超极壮观。
1889年5月15日,为给世界博览会开幕式剪彩,铁塔的设计师居斯塔夫·埃菲尔亲手将法国国旗升上铁塔的300米高空,由此,人们为了纪念他对法国和巴黎的这一贡献,特别还在塔下为他塑造了一座半身铜像。
直到2004年1月16日,为申办2012年夏季奥运会,法国巴黎市*特意在埃菲尔铁塔上介绍了其为申奥所做出的准备情况,而埃菲尔铁塔更成为了该国申奥的“天然广告”。
这个为了世界博览会而落成的金属建筑, 曾经保持世界最高建筑45年, 直到纽约帝国大厦的出现。 它由150万个铆钉连接固定, 据说它对地面的压强只有一个人坐在椅子上那么大。塔的四个面上, 铭刻了72个科学家的名字, 都是为了保护铁塔不被摧毁而从事研究的人们。
战神广场的另一端有和平门和和平碑, 上面用不同的文字写着"和平", 表达了人们美好的愿望.
