1、1徐霞客一生周游考察了十六个省,足迹几乎遍及全国。他在考察的过程中,从来不盲目迷信书本上的结论。他发现前人研究地理的记载有许多很不可靠的地方。为了进行真实细致的考察,他很少乘车坐船,几乎全靠双脚翻山越岭,长途跋涉;为了弄清大自然的真相,他总是挑选道路艰险的山区,人迹稀少的森林进行考察,发现了许多奇山秀景;他常常选择不同的时间和季节,多次重游各地名山,反复观察变换的奇景。XuXiaketouredandinvestigated16provincesinhislifetime,coveringalmostthewholeofChin

6、ongingly.3长沙是一个有3000多年历史的美丽古城。城市的西边是秀美的岳麓山,山下有千年书院“岳麓书院”等众多古迹。市区中心的古城楼天心阁,距今有1000多年的历史。千百年来水质清纯,终年不断的白沙古井也坐落在长沙城中。今天的长沙市民还常常在这里打水饮用。湘江中的橘子洲头,是当年毛泽东先生经常漫步思考的地方,后来还写了一首非常著名的诗来赞美她。Changshaisabeautifulancientcitywithahistoryofover3,000years.WestofthecityisthebeautifulYue
