READING
1) Read the story carefully

The Great Wall of China

Walls and wall building have played a very important role in Chinese culture. These
people, from the dim mists of prehistory have been wall-conscious; from the Neolithic
period when ramparts of pounded earth were used - to the Communist Revolution, walls
were an essential part of any village. Not only towns and villages; the houses and the
temples within them were somehow walled, and the houses also had no windows
overlooking the street, thus giving the feeling of wandering around a huge maze. The
name for city in Chinese (cheng) means wall, and over these walled cities, villages,
houses and temples presides the god of walls and mounts, whose duties were, and still
are, to protect and be responsible for the welfare of the inhabitants. Thus a great and
extremely laborious task such as constructing a wall, which was supposed to run
throughout the country, must not have seemed such an absurdity.

However, it is indeed a common mistake to perceive the Great Wall as a single

architectural structure, and it would also be erroneous to assume that it was built during a
single dynasty. For the building of the wall spanned the various dynasties, and each of
these dynasties somehow contributed to the refurbishing and the construction of a wall,
whose foundations had been laid many centuries ago. It was during the fourth and third
century B.C. that each warring state started building walls to protect their kingdoms, both
against one another and against the northern nomads. Especially three of these states: the
Chin, the Chao and the Yen, corresponding respectively to the modern provinces of
Shensi, Shanzi and Hopei, over and above building walls that surrounded their kingdoms,
also laid the foundations on which Chin Shih Huang Di would build his first continuous
Great Wall.

The role that the Great Wall played in the growth of Chinese economy was an important
one. Throughout the centuries many settlements were established along the new border.
The garrison troops were instructed to reclaim wasteland and to plant crops on it, roads
and canals were built, to mention just a few of the works carried out. All these undertakings
greatly helped to increase the countrys trade and cultural exchanges with many remote
areas and also with the southern, central and western parts of Asia the formation of the
Silk Route. Builders, garrisons, artisans, farmers and peasants left behind a trail of objects,
including inscribed tablets, household articles, and written work, which have become
extremely valuable archaeological evidence to the study of defence institutions of the
Great Wall and the everyday life of these people who lived and died along the wall.
