一、Good morning, everyone! Today, I’m happy to tell you about a great historical site—the Terracotta Army.
It is in Xi’an, Shaanxi Province. Local farmers found it by accident in 1974. It’s from the Qin Dynasty, more than 2,000 years ago. There are thousands of life-sized clay soldiers, horses and chariots here. Each soldier has a different face and stands in a different way.
These clay warriors were made to protect Emperor Qin Shi Huang after he died. From them, we can learn about how ancient Chinese soldiers lived, how they made things, and what clothes they wore. The bronze weapons they hold also show that ancient people had smart skills to make tools.
The Terracotta Army lets us feel like we’re walking into the past. It’s a wonderful way to know more about ancient Chinese people’s life and wisdom.
Thank you for listening!
