樂山大佛顯露全貌

山東 孫啟祿

1 Recently,news that the“real body”of the Leshan Giant Buddha has been revealed has appeared on the Internet,causing neti?zens to have heated discussions.

2According to media reports,affected by the continuous high temperature and low pre?cipitation (降水),the water flows of the Dadu River,Qingyi River and Minjiang River in Leshan have decreased significantly,and the“real body”of the Leshan Giant Buddha at the intersection (交匯處)of the three rivers has also been exposed.Soon,the news aroused (激起；引起) the attention and heated discus?sions among netizens.

3In this regard,many local netizens said that the Leshan Giant Buddha was usually fully exposed,but only the toes were submerged in the huge flood two years ago.Some neti?zens joked,“I thought the Buddha was hidden underwater before,and what I saw before was a‘substitute(替代物)’for the Buddha?”

4Some netizens questioned whether the platform under the Buddha's feet is also part of the“real body”of the Buddha.

5Some Leshan local literature and history researchers believe that it is nonsense that the“real body”of the Buddha is completely exposed.This year,due to the drought,the water level dropped,which caused more of the rock mass under the water to expose,but this part obviously does not belong to the“real body”of the Buddha.

6Regarding the statement that the“real body”of the Buddha is fully exposed on the Internet,an official of the Leshan Giant Buddha Scenic Spot Management Committee also said that this statement was definitely wrong.Even when the huge flood came in 2020,it was only submerged to the toes,and the body of the Buddha was all exposed.How come the“real body”is now fully exposed?

7The Leshan Giant Buddha Scenic Spot Management Committee stated that at 12：00 on August 18,2022,the water level of the Leshan Giant Buddha platform was 1.69 meters lower than the normal water level for the same period in August last year,and 10.53 meters lower than the“8.18”flood water level in 2020.

二、語篇解碼

本文是一篇新聞報(bào)道。受持續(xù)高溫、降水偏少的影響，四川省樂山市的大渡河、青衣江和岷江水流量明顯減少，位于三江交匯處的樂山大佛石像也全部露出，吸引不少游客前來游覽。

三、語言學(xué)習(xí)

（一）語料薈萃

（二）語句分析

1.Recently,news that the“real body”of the Leshan Giant Buddha has been revealed has appeared on the Internet,causing netizens to have heated discussions.近日，樂山大佛顯露全貌的新聞在網(wǎng)絡(luò)上流傳，這引發(fā)了網(wǎng)友的激烈討論。

【點(diǎn)石成金】本句是一個主從復(fù)合句。news...has appeared on the Internet 是主句，that 引導(dǎo)的是同位語從句，說明news 的內(nèi)容，causing...discussions 是V?ing形式短語作結(jié)果狀語。

2.This year,due to the drought,the water level dropped,which caused more of the rock mass under the water to expose,but this part obviously does not belong to the“real body”of the Buddha.今年，由于干旱，水位下降，這導(dǎo)致更多的水下巖體暴露出來，但這部分顯然不屬于大佛像本身。

【點(diǎn)石成金】本句是一個主從復(fù)合句。due to the drought 是介詞短語作原因狀語，the water level dropped 是主句，which 引導(dǎo)的是非限制性定語從句，but 連接的是兩個并列句。

四、語言運(yùn)用

（一）例句仿寫

1.中國成功把三位宇航員送往太空，這一消息曾震驚了整個世界。

The news __________shocked the whole world.

2.我深信誠實(shí)的重要性，誠實(shí)將有助于建設(shè)一個溫暖和諧的社會。

I am convinced of the importance of honesty,__________.

（二）寫作實(shí)踐

1.感謝她對樂山大佛的關(guān)注；

2.樂山大佛的相關(guān)情況；

3.歡迎她到樂山來玩。注意：

1.詞數(shù)80左右；
