參考答案2:
An interesting historic place in my country is (...say a name of a historic place...). It is situated at (...area name...) in (...city/town name ...). In my opinion this is a very interesting historic place as it is almost two thousand years’ old and it was discovered in the middle of the last century. This was the center of the (...say a civilization name...) civilization and was one of the most prominent cities of our country. More than several hundred feet had to be dug to discover it.
Now the place has been renovated to reflect the city it once been. There are more than hundred acres of places in this site and most of them are the remaining of the lost civilization and city of that time. There are several old buildings, castles, fortress, monuments, rivers, canons, cryptic houses, under paths and sculptures are there. A museum was built as recently as 10 years ago for the visitors to learn more about this lost city and people. The museum is a really good one in terms of its collection and reflection of that civilization.
To me, this was interesting because of the proof of advancement this civilization had. I have read a lot about this civilization and cultures of these people and visiting this place was a really good experience. The museum was very rich in terms of learning history. The city was more than 2 thousand years old and yet it has many amazing art works, tools, intricate designs, buildings with amazing work, finest canon and many more proofs of their advancement. They had been a flourishing civilization that dominated that part of the country. The idea of our civilization being found by future generation was an interesting idea and this historic place just reminded me that. The museum, the fine airmanship and advancement of that civilization are all amazing historic proof and interesting to explore.

The Forbidden City was the Chinese imperial palace from the mid-Ming Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty. It is located in the middle of Beijing, China and now houses the Palace Museum. For almost five centuries, it served as the home of the Emperor and his household, and the ceremonial and political centre of Chinese government.

The Great Wall of China is a series of stone and earthen fortifications in China, built, rebuilt, and maintained between the 6th century BC and the 16th century to protect the northern borders of the Chinese Empire during the rule of successive dynasties. Several walls, referred to as the Great Wall of China, were built since the 5th century BC.

雅思口語話題：描述一個你去過的歷史建筑
今天，給大家?guī)淼目谡Z話題依舊是一道雅思口語非常高頻的地點(diǎn)類話題，Describe a historical building you have been to. 描述一個你去過的歷史建筑?？吹竭@個話題，不僅讓我們再次感到顫抖，因?yàn)楹芏嗤瑢W(xué)們對于歷史建筑類的話題感到非常棘手，因?yàn)槠綍r(shí)自己對歷史不太感興趣，相關(guān)的歷史建筑方面的素材積累和背景知識儲備也不是很全面，沒關(guān)系，今天我將在這篇文章中來幫助大家搭建好這個話題的思路，更重要的是，來給大家提供一些我親自去過的來自世界各地的歷史建筑的語料和素材，來幫大家進(jìn)行一場穿越歷史長河的頭腦風(fēng)暴。
首先，我們還是先按照我們經(jīng)典的5w方法來一起把這個話題的框架給搭建起來。When：你是什么時(shí)候去參觀這個歷史建筑的?哪一年?或者是在什么特殊的節(jié)日?當(dāng)然這里的when也完全可以理解為這個建筑是什么時(shí)間什么朝代建成的?它有多長的歷史了? Where：這個建筑位于哪里?哪個國家?哪個城市?距離你的家鄉(xiāng)有多遠(yuǎn)?你是如何到達(dá)這個地方的?這里是否非常容易到達(dá)(accessible)?Who：這個建筑是誰設(shè)計(jì)的?是為了紀(jì)念誰而建造的?或者是說你跟誰一起去參觀的這個建筑呢?What：這個建筑有什么特點(diǎn)?外形方面?歷史地位?或者是這個建筑的功能和作用是什么?它是一座皇宮還是一座陵墓?是一個宗教場所(教堂/佛寺/清真寺)還是一座古老的城堡?Why：這個建筑有哪些地方給你留下了很深刻的印象?為什么你會選擇介紹這個歷史建筑呢?它為什么有如此崇高的歷史地位呢?這里一定要把原因闡釋清楚。
搭建好思路和提綱之后呢，下面我們來一起看一看這個話題有哪些比較合適恰當(dāng)?shù)乃夭?。首先我們還是要審題，既然是historical building歷史建筑，那么這個建筑肯定要有相對比較長的歷史，必須是很久之前建成的。題目要求中并沒有強(qiáng)調(diào)是國內(nèi)的或者是國外的建筑，因此，這個話題的素材面還是很寬泛的，我們可以選擇東西方的歷史建筑作為例子。這里有一點(diǎn)需要強(qiáng)調(diào)一下，關(guān)于歷史建筑，我們可以講其分為幾個大類：祭祀場所，陵墓/宗教場所/城市遺址/皇宮/古代的公共場所等。下面，我們從祭祀場所或者陵墓開始聊起吧，我會給大家提供一些素材并進(jìn)行背景知識的介紹和相關(guān)歷史的普及。
01祭祀場所/陵墓
一提到祭祀場所或者是陵墓，我們腦海中肯定會浮現(xiàn)出大量的國內(nèi)的例子，我們從身邊的南京明孝陵開始聊起。明孝陵位于南京市玄武區(qū)紫金山南麓獨(dú)龍阜玩珠峰下，東毗中山陵，南臨梅花山，位于鐘山風(fēng)景名勝區(qū)內(nèi)，是明太祖朱元璋與其皇后的合葬陵寢。因皇后馬氏謚號“孝慈高皇后”，又因奉行孝治天下，故名“孝陵”。
明孝陵作為中國明清皇陵之首，代表了明初建筑和石刻藝術(shù)的最高成就，直接影響明清兩代五百余年20多座帝王陵寢的形制，依歷史進(jìn)程分布于北京、湖北、遼寧、河北等地的明清皇家陵寢，均按南京明孝陵的規(guī)制和模式營建，在中國帝陵發(fā)展史上有著特殊的地位，故而有“明清皇家第一陵”的美譽(yù)。
此外，我們還可以說北京的天壇(the Heaven Temple)，天壇始建于明永樂十八年(1420年)，清乾隆、光緒時(shí)曾重修改建。為明、清兩代帝王祭祀皇天、祈五谷豐登之場所。天壇是圜丘、祈谷兩壇的總稱，有壇墻兩重，形成內(nèi)外壇，壇墻南方北圓，象征天圓地方。在北京，還有很多其他的歷史建筑，尤其是祭祀場所或者是皇帝的陵墓，例如明十三陵等。
我們還可以講西安的秦始皇陵/兵馬俑。兵馬俑是第一批全國重點(diǎn)文物保護(hù)單位，第一批中國世界遺產(chǎn)，位于今陜西省西安市臨潼區(qū)秦始皇陵以東1.5千米處的兵馬俑坑內(nèi)。秦始皇兵馬俑陪葬坑坐西向東，三坑呈品字形排列。最早發(fā)現(xiàn)的是一號俑坑，呈長方形，坑里有8000多個兵馬俑，四面有斜坡門道。1987年，秦始皇陵及兵馬俑坑被聯(lián)合國教科文組織批準(zhǔn)列入《世界遺產(chǎn)名錄》，并被譽(yù)為“世界第八大奇跡” [4] ，先后有200多位外國元首和政府首腦參觀訪問，成為中國古代輝煌文明的一張金字名片，被譽(yù)為世界十大
古墓稀世珍寶之一。
當(dāng)然，在國外也有很多著名的祭祀場所或者陵墓，例如埃及的金字塔，埃及金字塔是古埃及的帝王(法老)陵墓。世界七大奇跡之一。數(shù)量眾多，分布廣泛。開羅西南尼羅河西古城孟菲斯一帶的金字塔是占有集中的一部分。埃及共發(fā)現(xiàn)金字塔96座，最大的是開羅郊區(qū)胡夫的三座金字塔。約從公元前3500年開始，尼羅河兩岸陸續(xù)出現(xiàn)幾十個奴隸制小國。
約公元前3100年，初步統(tǒng)一的古代埃及國家建立起來。古埃及國王也稱法老，是古埃及最大的奴隸主，擁有至高無上的權(quán)力。他們被看做是神的化身。他們?yōu)樽约盒藿司薮蟮牧昴菇鹱炙鹱炙统闪朔ɡ蠙?quán)力的象征。因?yàn)檫@些巨大的陵墓外形形似漢字的“金”字，因此我們將其稱之為“金字塔”。在哈夫拉金字塔前，還有一尊獅身人面像守衛(wèi)著法老們的陵墓。此外，在埃及還有圖坦卡蒙陵墓，這是3300年來惟一一個完好無缺的法老陵墓，也是埃及最豪華的陵寢，更是埃及考古史乃至世界考古史上最偉大的發(fā)現(xiàn)。文物無可比擬的歷史價(jià)值和所蘊(yùn)涵的謎團(tuán)使圖坦卡蒙陵墓排在世界十大寶藏的第一位。
其實(shí)大家有所不知，金字塔不僅僅存在于埃及，也不僅僅是陵墓，在拉丁美洲的墨西哥也發(fā)現(xiàn)了金字塔，而這里的金字塔不是陵墓，而是祭祀場所。位于墨西哥提奧提華坎遺跡，被發(fā)現(xiàn)了著名的太陽金字塔(Pirámide del Sol)和月亮金字塔(Pirámide del Luna)，太陽金字塔是古印第安人祭祀太陽神的地方，它建筑宏偉，呈梯形，坐東朝西，正面有數(shù)百級臺階直達(dá)頂端。內(nèi)部用泥土和沙石堆建，從下到上各臺階外表都鑲嵌著巨大的石板，石板上雕刻著五彩繽紛的圖案。在墨西哥的尤卡坦半島的中東部，也發(fā)現(xiàn)了奇琴伊察金字塔(Chichén Itzá)。
02.宗教場所
關(guān)于宗教場所，在這里主要跟大家介紹一下來自國外的著名的宗教場所。我們會以世界三大宗教(基督教，伊斯蘭教和佛教)為例子，當(dāng)然我們還會補(bǔ)充印度教和猶太教等。基督教的主要集會場所當(dāng)屬教堂了，那么世界上歷史很悠久的教堂有很多，而當(dāng)中絕大多數(shù)又都位于歐洲，接下來給大家介紹幾個我去過的很出名的教堂。
首先就是位于意大利米蘭的米蘭大教堂(Duomo di Milano)。它是意大利著名的天主教堂，規(guī)模位居世界第二，于1386年開工建造，1500年完成拱頂，1774年最高的哥特式塔尖上的鍍金圣母瑪麗亞雕像由Giuseppe Perego建造，是米蘭市的象征。整個教堂1965年完工，歷時(shí)五個世紀(jì)。距今已有2000多年的歷史。拿破侖曾于1805年在米蘭大教堂舉行加冕儀式。
其次，位于西班牙的塞維利亞大教堂也是很棒的例子，圣彼得大教堂(St. Peter's Basilica Church)又稱圣伯多祿大教堂、梵蒂岡大殿。由伯拉孟特、米開朗基羅等建筑師不斷設(shè)計(jì)并完善，是位于梵蒂岡的一座天主教宗座圣殿，建于1506年至1626年，為天主教會重要的象征之一。作為最杰出的文藝復(fù)興建筑和世界上最大的教堂，其占地23,000平方米，可容納超過六萬人。最后，位于巴勒斯坦約旦河西岸城市伯利恒的圣誕教堂絕對是重頭戲。圣誕教堂被認(rèn)為是自基督教早期以來，經(jīng)過漫長的風(fēng)風(fēng)雨雨和滄桑磨難，仍然得到幾乎完好保存的為數(shù)寥寥的建筑之一，具有很高的文化價(jià)值。距今已有2500年的歷史，也被認(rèn)為是耶穌的誕生地!
說完教堂，我們再來一起看看伊斯蘭教的代表建筑：清真寺。首當(dāng)其沖的當(dāng)然是位于沙特阿拉伯的麥加大清真寺。麥加大清真寺位于沙特阿拉伯麥加城中心，規(guī)模宏偉，經(jīng)幾個世紀(jì)以來的擴(kuò)建和修葺，特別是沙特時(shí)代的擴(kuò)建，總面積已擴(kuò)大到18萬平方米，可容納50萬穆斯林同時(shí)作禮拜。距今已有1000多年的歷史，是世界各國穆斯林向往的地方和去麥加朝覲禮拜的圣地。
此外，我們也可以講位于以色列耶路撒冷的圓頂清真寺(The dome of the rock)，又稱為金頂清真寺。它一直是耶路撒冷最著名的標(biāo)志之一。自公元7世紀(jì)修建以來，一千多年里幾經(jīng)翻修，1994年由約旦國王侯賽因出資650萬美元為這個圓頂覆蓋上了24公斤純金箔，使它徹底名揚(yáng)天下，圓頂清真寺由木屋頂變成了今天美麗的金色穹頂。它是穆斯林偉大的先知默罕默德升天之地。
我們再來一起看一看佛教。世界上有很多知名的佛寺，今天跟大家分享一下位于柬埔寨的吳哥窟(Angkor Wat)，又稱吳哥寺，是世界上最大的廟宇類建筑，同時(shí)也是世界上最早的高棉式建筑，修建于1140年，吳哥窟是吳哥古跡最精華的部分，也是柬埔寨早期建筑風(fēng)格的代表。1992年聯(lián)合國教科文組織將吳哥古跡列入世界文化遺產(chǎn)。此后吳哥窟作為吳哥古跡的重中之重，成為了柬埔寨一張亮麗的旅游名片。
此外，我們還可以說位于印度尼西亞的世界聞名的婆羅浮屠(Borobudur)，大約修建于公元750年至850年間，由當(dāng)時(shí)統(tǒng)治爪哇島的夏連特拉王朝統(tǒng)治者興建，意思是“山頂?shù)姆鹚隆?。后來因?yàn)榛鹕奖l(fā)，使這佛塔群下沉、并隱蓋于茂密的熱帶叢林中近千年，直到19世紀(jì)初才被清理出來。婆羅浮屠與中國的長城、印度的泰姬陵、柬埔寨的吳哥窟并稱為古代東方四大奇跡。
此外，我們還可以了解一下印度教神廟普蘭巴南神廟(PrambananTemple)，它位于印度尼西亞日惹市，由250座大大小小的陵廟組成，建于公元900年左右，是為埋藏當(dāng)時(shí)國王及王后骨灰而修建的。是印尼最宏偉壯麗的印度教寺廟，是世界建筑、雕刻和繪畫藝術(shù)史上一顆璀璨的明珠。最后，位于以色列的哭墻(Western Wall)又名西墻，則是猶太教如心中的圣地。千百年來，流落在世界各個角落的猶太人回到圣城耶路撒冷時(shí)，便會來到這面石墻前低聲禱告，哭訴流亡之苦，所以被稱為“哭墻”。距今已有超過兩千年的歷史了。
03.城市遺址
說到城市遺址，這里指的是古老城市因?yàn)?zāi)害或者戰(zhàn)爭而殘存下來的城市遺跡。首先，我們來一起看一下位于南美洲秘魯庫斯科市的馬丘比丘(Machu Picchu)!整個遺址高聳在海拔約2350米的山脊上，俯瞰著烏魯班巴河谷，為熱帶叢林所包圍，是秘魯著名的前哥倫布時(shí)期印加帝國建于約公元1500年的遺跡，也是世界新七大奇跡之一。馬丘比丘在克丘亞語中為“古老的山”之義，也被稱作“失落的印加城市“。
整個遺跡由約140個建筑物組成，包括廟宇、避難所、公園和居住區(qū)。馬丘比丘的全部建筑都是印加傳統(tǒng)風(fēng)格：磨光的規(guī)則形狀的墻，以及美妙的接縫技巧，墻上石塊和石塊之間的縫隙連匕首都無法放進(jìn)去，讓人簡直無法理解印加人是究竟如何把他們拼接在一起的。
此外，我們還可以說伊朗的波斯波利斯(Perspolis)古城遺址，這里是波斯阿契美尼德王朝的第二個都城。建于大流士一世(公元前522-前486年在位)時(shí)期，其遺址發(fā)現(xiàn)于設(shè)拉子?xùn)|北52公里的塔赫特賈姆希德附近。城址東面依山，其余三面有圍墻。主要遺跡有大流士王的接見廳與百柱宮等。1979年聯(lián)合國教科文組織將波斯波利斯作為文化遺產(chǎn)。最后，我們也可以講位于約旦的佩特拉古城。佩特拉古城(公元前9年—公元40年)，是約旦南部的一座歷史古城，它是約旦南部沙漠中的神秘古城之一，也是約旦最負(fù)盛名的古跡區(qū)之一。
它幾乎是全在巖石上雕鑿而成，佩特拉遺址的巖石帶有珊瑚寶石般的微紅色調(diào)，在陽光照射下熠熠發(fā)亮。特殊的地貌使它呈現(xiàn)出絕美的顏色，所以又被稱為“玫瑰古城”。
04.皇宮
提到皇宮，在這里首先給大家介紹的是我國的布達(dá)拉宮，位于西藏拉薩西北的瑪布日山上，是著名的宮堡式建筑群，藏族古建筑藝術(shù)的精華。始建于公元7世紀(jì)，是藏王松贊干布為遠(yuǎn)嫁西藏的唐朝文成公主而建。全部為石木結(jié)構(gòu)，5座宮頂覆蓋鎦金銅瓦，金光燦爛，氣勢雄偉。
此外，放眼世界，我們還可以說位于俄羅斯莫斯科的克里姆林宮(Kremlin)，曾為莫斯科公國和十八世紀(jì)以前的沙皇皇宮，十二月革命勝利后，成為黨政領(lǐng)導(dǎo)機(jī)關(guān)駐地。1156年始建，后屢經(jīng)擴(kuò)建，為一古老建筑群，主要有大克里姆林宮、圣母升天教堂、政府大廈，伊凡大鐘樓等。宮內(nèi)塔樓是裝有五角紅寶石星。現(xiàn)亦作為俄羅斯政府的代稱。
還有法國的凡爾賽宮，凡爾賽宮是法國封建時(shí)期帝王的行宮，在巴黎市西南凡爾賽城，是世界上最大的宮殿單體建筑。始建于十六世紀(jì)，后屢經(jīng)擴(kuò)建形成現(xiàn)存規(guī)模。包括宮前大花園、宮殿和放射形大道三部分。形體對稱，軸形東西向。宮內(nèi)裝潢極其豪華，內(nèi)壁懸掛壁毯、油畫、雕刻，大廳內(nèi)陳列著名雕刻家的青銅或大理石雕像，享有藝術(shù)宮殿之盛譽(yù)。還有位于土耳其伊斯坦布爾的托普卡普皇宮(Topkapi Palace)，這里是從15世紀(jì)到19世紀(jì)奧斯曼帝國的中心。這迷宮般的豪華至極的地方，是當(dāng)年蘇丹們辦公的地方。宮殿外側(cè)是綠木蔥郁的第一庭院，原本是宮廷餐室的第二庭院，現(xiàn)在成為帝國時(shí)代水晶制品、銀器以及中國陶瓷器的藏館。其景色被稱為博斯普魯斯海峽最杰出的一角。
05.公共娛樂場所
其實(shí)，提到古代的公共娛樂場所，大家可能一下子想不到太多很恰當(dāng)?shù)睦樱强赐炅宋业姆窒?，大家一定會恍然大悟的?/p>
首先給大家?guī)淼木褪且怀龇浅＝?jīng)典的歷史建筑，位于意大利羅馬的角斗場(Colosseum)羅馬角斗場又稱為弗萊文圓形劇場，處在意大利首都羅馬市內(nèi)臺伯河?xùn)|岸，為古羅馬的象征，被譽(yù)為"世界八大奇跡"之一。
角斗場建于公元72-79年，強(qiáng)迫8萬名猶太俘虜作勞役，用工8年完成。整個建筑占地2萬平方米，周長527米，可容納9萬觀眾。據(jù)說當(dāng)年角斗場開幕時(shí)，共用5000頭獅子、老虎等猛獸和由3000名奴隸、俘虜、罪犯及受宗教迫害的基督教徒組成的角斗士，在此持續(xù)進(jìn)行了100天的表演。它是羅馬帝國征服耶路撒冷后，為紀(jì)念皇帝威斯巴西安的豐功偉績而建的，甚至一直影響著現(xiàn)代大型體育場的建筑。
此外，我們還可以講位于希臘首都雅典的帕特農(nóng)神廟(Parthenon temple )。它位于雅典衛(wèi)城的古城堡中心、石灰?guī)r的山崗上，聳峙著一座巍峨的矩形建筑物，神廟矗立在衛(wèi)城的最高點(diǎn)，神廟歷經(jīng)兩千多年的滄桑之變，如今廟頂已坍塌，雕像蕩然無存，浮雕剝蝕嚴(yán)重，但從巍然屹立的柱廊中，還可以看出神廟當(dāng)年的豐姿。
當(dāng)然，如果大家對音樂感興趣，一定聽說過奧地利首都維也納的金色大廳，全稱為維也納音樂協(xié)會金色大廳(Musikverein)這是維也納最古老、最現(xiàn)代化的音樂廳，是維也納也是世界上著名的音樂廳之一。金色大廳由T·馮·漢森始建于1867年，1869年竣工。是意大利文藝復(fù)興式建筑。外墻黃紅兩色相間，屋頂上豎立著許多音樂女神雕像，古雅別致。金色大廳并非一座獨(dú)立的建筑，而是音樂之友協(xié)會大樓的一部分，該建筑物中有多個音樂廳，除金色大廳外，還包括勃拉姆斯廳和莫扎特廳等演出大廳，以及辦公室。金色大廳是維也納音樂生活的支點(diǎn)，也是維也納愛樂樂團(tuán)的常年演出場地。
維也納新年音樂會按照傳統(tǒng)都會在這里舉行，每年隨著新年音樂會通過電視轉(zhuǎn)播將該大廳金碧輝煌的裝飾和無與倫比的音響效果展現(xiàn)在全世界的觀眾面前。
好了，今天給大家的分享就到此結(jié)束了，下面我為大家提供了一個巴黎圣母院的例子作為范文和參考，難度適中，希望對大家有所幫助。我們下期見。
Describe a historical building you have been to.
You should say,
When you visited this building
Where is it located
What it looks like
And explain your feeling about this building.
When it comes to the historical building that I have been to, I will definitely illustrate the Notre-Dame, which is located in Paris, France. I visited this building 6 months ago with my parents and other family members while we were touring around Europe as it has been regarded as one of the must-see places in France. To be frank, I didn't take it seriously before going there because I knew nothing except for the little information from the book “ the Hunchback of Notre Dame” and its adapted movie. But, when I was actually standing there, I was totally stunned by this grand Catholic cathedral. As is was in a bay area, its height made it quite an eye-catcher. What I have learned the most was about the cultural perspectives. There were so many religious elements that I had never heard about. For example, this article is from a particular website, some sculptures depicted some scenes of the last judgement from the Holy Bible such as weighing the souls, which was so interesting. Honestly speaking, I didn't get much exposure to Christianity, but there is indeed something equivalent like the King of Hell, who was also regarded as a power to weigh the good and the evil. Also, the interior design of it was breathtaking, so many beautiful mosaics about those sacred stories. Well, I argue that this historical building was so meaningful to me as it gave me a brand new perspective to the cynical world. You know, I also feel so sorry for the recent catastrophic fire that engulfed the upper reaches of this precious architecture of human civilization. i hope the renovation could be carried on as fast as possible and finish smoothly.
