IT runs at speeds of over two hundred fifty kilometre per hour, and the maximum can reach three hundred fifty kilometers per hour. New technologies with our independent intellectual property rights have been applied into H. S. R. Some of our invention patterns have been internationally awarded. Now, IT has become the best choice for internal passengers during spring festival travel rush. Two, china's six round railway speed up program was kicked in two thousand seven on china, open the first high speed line in the mainland two thousand eight by the to twenty sixteen, china has the world's largest HSP network of more than twenty two thousand killing motors, and Operated over two thousand five hundred high speed trains, kicking up more than sixty percent of the world's total high speed trains, which makes china the leader in his domain. China's HSR is a model of a connecting millions of people, spreading over long distances. The magic of HSR in china has aroused global interest and its rail industry is developing ing globally. In twenty fifteen, china completed the construction of its first overseas high speed railway in turkey, and in june twenty fifteen, china in russia agree to work together for seven hundred seventy kilometers of track connecting most and.

For a very long time, Chinese science and technology held a leading position in the world. A good example is the four great inventions of ancient China: paper-making, compass, gunpowder and printing.
Before paper was invented, people wrote on heavy bamboos and expensive silk. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, paper-making technology was improved by Cai Lun. He made the paper from cheaper materials, such as fishing nets and ropes. As a result, it became easier to make books.
Before the compass was used for sailing, sailors around the world had to depend on stars to find the right direction. In the Northern Song Dynasty, the compass was then invented. It was made by putting a magnetic needle on “luopan”, a wooden disk.
In ancient China, gunpowder was invented by accident. At first, it was used in fireworks. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, people began to use it in wars. The technology of making gunpowder was brought to the Arabic world and Europe in the 13th century.
Chinese people used block printing to produce books at first. This technology wasted many wooden boards. During the Northern Song Dynasty, Bi Sheng developed movable type printing. He made characters on special soil pieces so that they could be reused later to print other books. The invention helped spread knowledge around the world.
The four great inventions were gifts from China to the world. Together they speeded up the development of human society.
a. Cai Lun improved paper-making.
b. Four great inventions stand for ancient Chinese technology.
c. The compass was invented for sailing.
d. Gunpowder appeared and spread overseas.
e. The inventions boosted social development.
f. Bi Sheng’s printing helped spread knowledge.
