When I stepped into the museum of 14,000 square meters, it was amazing to see the huge underground kingdom of the first emperor, Qin Shi Huang. He began to build his final resting place around 246 BC when he was only 13 years old. In the main pits, there are over 8,000 terracotta warriors and horses. The warriors are all life-sized and set in regular rows. Each face is different with different expressions. Amazingly, no two are exactly the same. These figures appear grey in color. In fact, they were originally beautifully painted in very bright colors, just like real people. Today the Terracotta Army is a must-see for every visitor to Xi’an and has been listed as “The Eighth Wonder of the World”. 阅读课文，并为其选择合适的标题。 Task10 Read and choose. The sight of the Terracotta Army reminded me of my trip to Egypt, where I visited the Great Pyramid of Giza. There are over 70 pyramids in Egypt stretching down the Nile River Valley. On the edge of the Sahara Desert lies the Great Pyramid of Giza, which was constructed for Egyptian king Khufu between 2600 and 2500 BC. The Great Pyramid rises to 481 feet (147 metres) high and is made of over two million blocks of stone. It was the first ever tallest man-made construction on earth for almost 4,000 years. Each year, millions of people go to see this fantastic wonder of human construction, drawn by humans’ rich and brilliant past. 阅读课文，并为其选择合适的标题。 Task10 Read and choose.
