今天我和爸爸到北京去玩儿，路途可真远啊！早晨四点从家中出发，中午才到北京。

Today, my father and I are going to Beijing for fun. It's a long way! Starting from home at four in the morning, I arrived in Beijing at noon.

我们首先来到了北京的著名景点——长城，站在长城上往下一看，各种景色尽收眼底，山啊，树啊都是那么美丽！我发现长城上面有许多小孔，我问爸爸：“这是干什么用的？”

First of all, we came to the famous scenic spot of Beijing - the Great Wall. Standing on the great wall and looking down, we have a panoramic view of all kinds of scenery. Mountains and trees are so beautiful! I found many small holes in the wall. I asked my father, "what's this for?"

爸爸告诉我说：“古代不像现在科技这样发达，没有飞机、导弹，只有弓箭、大刀、长矛，这些小孔是用来射箭的。”我又问爸爸：“这是什么朝代修建的？”爸爸回答说：“这时秦朝建造的。”我知道秦朝的帝王是秦始皇，是他逼迫劳动人民建造了长城。我还知道，长城能保存到现在已经经过了好多次修建了。

My father told me: "in ancient times, unlike today's technology, there were no planes or missiles, only bows and arrows, broadswords and spears. These holes were used for archery." I asked my father, "what Dynasty was this built?" The father replied, "it was built in the Qin Dynasty." I know that the first emperor of Qin Dynasty forced the working people to build the Great Wall. I also know that the Great Wall has been built many times.

我们要去的第二个景点就是天安门，天安门红墙黄瓦，非常庄严。城楼上有毛主席的画像，对面有一张大大的孙中山的头像。

The second scenic spot we are going to is Tian'anmen Gate. The red walls and yellow tiles of Tian'anmen Gate are very solemn. There is a picture of Chairman Mao on the tower, and a big picture of Sun Yat-sen on the opposite side.

北京真美呀，我喜欢北京！

Beijing is so beautiful. I like Beijing!
