Marco Polo's tales inspired European explorers to search② for sea routes from west to east.However，merchants③ and explorers from the East set sail④ from east to west many years before Columbus first did. 句中动词不定式短语作主语，看作第三人称单数形式。 In ancient times，silk from China found its way overland to⑤ India，the Middle East，and Rome，along what became known as the Silk Road.A trading route across the sea was also extended along the coasts of the Indian Ocean，centred around⑥ Ceylon (now Sri Lanka).Here，merchants from China and many other places met to negotiate trade deals，which also led to more awareness of each other's cultures .Over the centuries，further trading allowed more exploration of the regions to the west of China，as recorded in Du Huan's Record of My Travels⑦ in the eighth century. 句中which引导非限制性定语从句，修饰前面整个句子。 Later，the Ming Dynasty further developed relations with these regions.Between 1405 and 1433，seven large fleets sailed west on voyages of trade and exploration.These fleets were a sight to behold⑧ and were in a league of their own at that time.Under the command of Zheng He，they set sail from the South China Sea across the Indian Ocean to the mouth of the Red Sea，and then to the east coast of Africa. 学生用书第70页 African royal families sent gifts such as giraffes as gestures of friendship⑨ in return for⑩ gold，silk，and spices.Although China withdrew⑪ from further expeditions after 1433，these land and sea routes remained active channels between other cultures for centuries . 句中Although引导让步状语从句。 To reach out across the sea remains a strong desire today.The ancient sea routes travelled by Zheng He are being revisited⑫ with the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road，which is part of the Belt and Road Initiative.The aim of this initiative⑬ is to encourage cooperation and trade across the historic Silk Road areas，and strengthen the bonds between China and the rest of the world .Trading has grown greatly in recent years，and will continue to do so in years to come.China has invested billions in systems and services along these routes，which will help to greatly develop the whole area for the benefit of⑭ future trade and cultural exchange. 句中“travelled by Zheng He”是动词-ed形式短语作后置定语，修饰名词routes。 句中“to encourage cooperation and trade”是动词不定式短语作表语。 China has also joined its friends across the sea on other important projects.Although the ancient sea routes of Zheng He have been travelled many times，there are still many other places left to explore.In recent years，China has joined other nations on several expeditions to explore the Arctic .From a scientific point of view⑮，there is an urgent need to study the Arctic in order to understand climate change and its effects. 句中“to explore the Arctic”是动词不定式短语作目的状语。 Hundreds of years on⑯，and with the latest technology in hand，the need to trade and the desire to enhance⑰ relationships will drive China to reach out across the sea far into the future. 句中“with the latest technology in hand”是“with＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构。 学生用书第71页 …………………………………………………………………………………◎ 横跨大海 贸易和好奇心是奠定人类最伟大成就的基础，早期文明的人们对勾勒出完整的世界版图满怀激情。马可·波罗的故事激励了欧洲探险家去寻找由西方通往东方的海上航线。然而，在哥伦布首次出海之前的很多年，来自东方的商人和探险家就从东向西扬帆起航。 在古代，中国丝绸经由一条陆路运到印度、中东和罗马，这条路就是有名的“丝绸之路”。一条跨越海洋的贸易路线也沿着印度洋海岸延伸到以锡兰(现在的斯里兰卡)为中心的沿海地区。在这里，来自中国和许多其他地方的商人聚在一起洽谈贸易协议，也增进了对彼此文化的了解。几个世纪以来，随着贸易的发展，中国西部地区得到了更多的探索，正如8世纪时，杜环在《经行记》中所记载的那样。 后来，明朝时的中国和这些地区的关系得到了进一步发展。1405 年到1433年间，七支大型船队西渡重洋，进行贸易和探险活动。这些船队在当时蔚为壮观，独领风骚。在郑和的指挥下，他们从中国南海起航，穿过印度洋，到达红海入海口，然后到达了非洲东海岸。非洲皇室向船队赠送长颈鹿等礼物以示友谊，船队则回赠了黄金、丝绸和香料。虽然中国在1433年以后就停止了进一步的海上探索，但这些陆上和海上路线在接下来的几个世纪里仍然是其他文化之间进行交流的繁忙通道。 在今天，人们跨越海洋的愿望依然强烈。随着作为“一带一路”倡议组成部分的“21世纪海上丝绸之路”的提出，郑和航行过的古代航道而今再度受到关注。这一倡议旨在促进具有历史意义的“丝绸之路”周边地区的合作和贸易，并加强中国与世界其他地区的联系。沿线贸易近年来大幅增长，并将在未来几年继续增长。中国已投资了数十亿用以建设沿线的系统和服务设施，这将有助于推动整个地区的极大发展，促进未来的贸易和文化交流。 中国还与大洋彼岸的伙伴在其他重要项目上开展了合作。虽然郑和的古航路已经被重走了很多次，但还有很多其他地方有待探索。近年来，中国与其他国家一起进行了多次北极探险。从科学的角度来看，我们确实迫切需要研究北极，以了解气候变化及其影响。 数百年过去了，随着对最新技术的掌握，贸易的需要和加强关系的愿望将推动中国跨越海洋走向遥远的未来。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
