Xu Xiake, after 30 years of traveling, wrote many travel diaries on famous mountains and other places, with a total of 600 000 characters. After his death, these diaries were compiled into a book called The Travel Diaries of Xa X iake. The book is mainly about his observation during his travel from 1613 to 1639 and provides detailed records of geography, hydrology, geology, and plants. The book is highly accomplished in both geography and literature. As a literary work, the book vividly portrays the landscapes amid narration, hence imbuing it with a strong real-life flavor. While recording his travel experiences in his diaries, Xu Xiake also related the lives and customs of local people as well as the distribution of ethnic minority groups, which was seldom seen in official history. Hence, this book is also valuable in the study of history and nationalities. 段 落 翻 译 练 习 （思 政 黄山位于安徽省南部。它风景独特，尤以其日出和云海著称。要欣赏大山的宏伟壮 丽，通常得向上看。但要欣赏黄山美景，就得向下看。黄山的湿润气候有利于茶树 生长，是中国主要产茶地之一。这里还有许多温泉，其泉水有助于防治皮肤病。黄 山是中国主要旅游目的地之一，也是摄影和传统国画最受欢迎的主题。 Located in southern Anhui province in eastern China, Huangshan or literally Yellow Mountain is known for its unique natural scenery, particularly sunrises and sea of clouds.To appreciate the magnificence of the mountain, you have to look upward in most cases while to enjoy the fascinating landscape of Huangshan, you've got to look
