English is known as a world language,regularly used by many nations whose English is not their first language.Like other languages,English has changed greatly.The history of the English language can be divided into three main periods:Old English,Middle English and Modern English.The English language started with the invasion of Britain by three Germanic tribes during the 5th century AD,and they contributed greatly to the formation of the English language.During the medieval and early modern periods,the influence of English spread throughout the British Isles,and from the early 17th century its influence began to be felt throughout the world.The processes of European exploration and colonization for several centuries led to significant change in English.Today,American English is particularly influential,due to the popularity of American cinema,television,music,trade and technology,including the Internet.

中国书法(calligraphy)是一门独特的艺术、是世界上独一无二的艺术瑰宝。中国书法艺术的形成,发展与汉文字的产生与演进存在着密不可分的关系。汉字在漫长的演变发展过程中,一方面起着交流思想、继承文化的重要作用,另一方面它本身又形成了一种独特的艺术。书法能够通过作品把书法家个人的生活感受、学识、修养、个性等折射出来,所以,通常有“字如其人”的说法。中国书法不仅是中华民族的文化瑰宝,而且在世界文化艺术宝库中独放异彩。

美洲和欧洲各国都会庆祝2月14日的情人节。这是一个充满爱情和浪漫的节日,恋人之间通常都会交换情人卡和爱情信物。关于这个节日的起源有着不同的说法。一个传说是罗马人把一个叫圣瓦伦丁的神父关进了监狱,因为他拒绝相信罗马神。2月14日那天,瓦伦丁被处死,不仅因为他是徒,而且因为他曾治愈了一位监狱看守双目失明的女儿。他在被处死的前一天晚上给她写了一封署名“你的瓦伦丁”的告别信。后来,2月14日就成了一个人们可以为他们的情人展示感情的节日。现在,人们以不同的方式庆祝情人节,他们发送贺卡、鲜花,赠送巧克力或其他礼品,或共进浪漫的晚餐。现在这个节日已流行世界各地。在中国,这个节日也正越来越受年轻人的欢迎。

with the changing of times,these activities are diminishing.All that remains is the legend of Cowherd and Weaving Maid,a sign of faithful love,continuously circulated among the folk.

The Age of Discovery,also called the Age of Exploration,is a historical period of European global exploration that started in the early 15th century and continued until the 18th century.It is usually regarded as a bridge between the Middle Ages and the Modern era,in the context of emerging western imperialism and economic competition between European kingdoms seeking wealth through the establishment of trade routes and colonies.Among many great explorers during this period,the most outstanding one was Christopher Columbus since he discovered the New World.European overseas expansion led to the rise of colonial empires,with the contact between the Old and New Worlds producing the exchange:a wide transfer of plants,animals,foods,culture,and so forth.This represented one of the most significant global events concerning ecology,agriculture,and culture in history.European exploration allowed the global mapping of the world,resulting in a new world-view and distant civilizations acknowledging each other.

丝绸之路(Silk Road)是我国古代一条连接中国和欧亚(Eurasia)的交通线路,由于这条商路以丝绸贸易为主,故称"丝绸之路"。作为国际贸易的通道和文化交流的桥梁,丝绸之路有效地促进了东西方经济文化交流和发展,对世界文明进程有着深远影响。当前,在新的历史条件下,我国提出了"一带一路"(One Belt,One Road)(即"丝绸之路经济带"和"21世纪海上丝绸之路")的战略构想。"一带一路"以合作共赢为核心,强调相关各国的互利共赢和共同发展。这一战略一经提出即受到沿线各国的积极响应。
