Project
Overview
Description of "Our
Community"
Ningxia
is one of the cradles of Chinese culture.
There were human beings even in Paleolithic
Age that is |
300,000 years ago in Ningxia.
Shuidonggou relics tell us a mysterious
story happened a long time ago. After
Zhang Qian, a West Han Dynasty envoy,
traveled to western regions, the Silk
Road went through Ningxia where became
an important joint point of traffic and
trade between west and east of China.
One thousand years after that, Yuan Hao,
leader of Dangxiang people (Tanguts) established
West Xia which lasted for 200 years.
Ningxia
does not have a huge land, but there exists
various kinds of physiognomy -- mountains,
plain, plateau, hills, desert and rivers.
The stretching and undulant Helan Mountain, |
|
Liupan Mountain called green pearl in
Loess Plateau, famous |
Hunhuaizhang |
Shapotou, beautiful Laolong
Pool, grand Yellow Rive and Sha Lake formed
Ningxia's colorful natural scenery. |
Ningxia
is the merging place of culture in the great
bend of Yellow River and Silk Road. The merging
created the culture of West Xia, Islam and the
straightforward frontier fortress character.
Ningxia is lustering for the rock caves, murals
in Helan Mountain, tombs of West Xia, magnificent
Nanguan Mosque, Lamasery pagodas and relic of
Great Wall.

Summary
of Our Project
The
Binggou of Ningxia Province is special
for its location of ancientry. There were
even many heroes at Binggou, but now it
presents a kind of desolation for people.
Why? What's happening here? After discussion,
we decided to choose Entering Binggou
as our subject. In the project we introduce
the location, origin, actuality, exploration
and communication, displaying the culture
of Binggou and helping it spread all over
the world. At the same time, we hope that
more people are concerned about the influence
environment brings us. |

Problems We Had to Overcome
Firstly,
we have no experience of such activity. But
with the help of the friends in Town and Talent,
we finally complete the project successfully.
Secondly,
communication condition is poor. We communicated
once a week via chatting software and
at other time our teacher Miss Yan contacted
Liu with Email. Sometimes the chatting
software was not stable and we had to
talk through the phone.
Thirdly,
we are far away from Binggou, so we need
spend more expenses on doing it. But we
believe it is worthy for us.
Fourthly,
our English was not good enough and Mr.
Liu told us the information on the Cyber
Fair website. And the work must be in
English, so we had to ask help for Town
and Talent.
Our Project

Although we join the
game last year, we feel we can still do
nothing now. So we must study ceaselessly.
Further more, from this we can get better
knowledge of ourselves -- there is nothing
impossible only if we have determination
and resolution. Taking part in the project
really benefits us a lot. |
