800字描写西湖的作文，初中水平的，谢了

Answer 1

　　西 湖

　　阳春三月，杨柳抽芽，百花盛开，我们乘着船，荡舟西湖。当然这也不是我第一次游西湖了!

　　西湖的水是那样清，清得可以看见小鱼儿在水中嬉闹;西湖的水是那样绿，绿得和翡翠一般;西湖的水是那样平，小船游过，使平静的水面泛起一片微波。小鱼儿在湖面上跳来跳去，争着抢着吃游客撒下的食物。

　　西湖的水美，荷花更美。如果你是夏天到西湖，你就会看到杨万里所写的“接天莲叶无穷碧，映日荷花别样红”的景色。虽然夏日炎炎，但池里的荷花却感不到丝毫的闷热，荷花在池里亭亭玉立，躲在荷叶下的小鱼儿和人们玩起了捉迷藏。小蝌蚪也在水中找起了妈妈。

　　我们走过荷花池，来到了三潭映月。让我想起了苏轼的名句“欲把西湖比西子，淡妆浓抹总相宜。”三个潭在平静的水面上站着，每当月亮升起时，月亮的影子就会再三个潭眼中出现。

　　过了三潭映月我们又来到了桃花园。春天百花盛开时，桃花随着风儿飘舞，在风中翩翩起舞，发出阵阵清香，令人心旷神怡。满地的桃花有白的、大红的、粉红的......桃花园旁有一个小湖，桃花落在湖面上，给小湖添了一份秀色。

　　当然，我一定要去最令我向往的雷峰塔看看，看了那么多关于白娘子和许仙的故事，那唯美而又悲惨的爱情故事真是可歌可泣。在塔下，给我的第一印象就是高与美，大概是装修的缘故吧!我们拾级而上，饱揽了塔里塔外的风景，当我们走上塔顶，向下眺望，西湖的美景尽收眼底。

　　西湖的美令人陶醉，西湖的美令人入迷。如果说中国的土地上少了西湖，那可真是神州大地上少了一颗耀眼的明珠。西湖的美众所周知，远远不止中国人，西湖的美已经走出了中国的国门，走进了世界。除了景色，当然还包括了他的故事。

　　是啊，古人所说的话很美，而现实生活中的西湖更美!真可谓是“上有天堂，下有苏杭。”

西湖游记

我国各地都流传着这样的说法，上有天堂，下有苏杭，杭州是世界最美丽的地方，因此。苏州，杭州也一直是人们旅游的向往。
游杭州，游西湖，快哉，乐哉。天堂西湖有关的风物、民俗、传说，都在哪里？这次游览杭州我得到了满足。
　　宋代诗人白居易曾经说过：“未能抛得杭州去，一半勾留是此湖。”可见在那个年代古人对西湖就钟情有加。
　　杭州西湖到处都是民间故事，当年乾隆皇帝下江南，在杭州亲笔提名了“西湖十大名景”，“断桥残雪”便是其中之一。明人汪珂玉《西子湖拾翠余谈》有一段妙语：“西湖之胜，晴湖不如雨湖，雨湖不如月湖，月湖不如雪湖……能真正领山水之绝者，尘世有几人哉！”我们看到的西湖，虽然是晴湖、月湖，已经感到满足，如果能见到雨湖、雪湖，那我们可能就成为“神仙”了。正是：西湖风景誉天下，古往今来官宦家。今日百姓游西湖，留恋天堂不思家！
　　西湖的断桥。更有许多动人的神话故事，从古代至今，断桥成就了多少美好的姻缘。从许仙与白娘子的故事说起，那更是流芳千古的神仙与人相爱的故事，记得越剧《白蛇传》中白娘子那催人泪下的唱段：“西湖山水还依旧……看到断桥桥未断，我寸肠断，一片深情付东流！”无怪乎，断桥能和长桥、西泠桥并称西湖三大情人桥。但是，为什么有断桥这个名字呢？传说在古代桥畔住着一对以酿酒为生的段姓夫妇，故又称为段家桥，简称段桥，谐音为断桥。很多事物过去太久远，自然是难以考证了，但留下些故事让后人来争议，未尝不是一件风雅事。我站在断桥上，看到来来往往的来自全国各地的姑娘。寻找白蛇，青蛇的影子，或许，几百年后，这里又会出现一段美丽的神话。有诗为证：“俗民今日临断桥，寻找蛇仙走古道。可恨法海太无情，坼散鸳鸯水漫桥。”
　　西湖的荷花盛开，红色的金鱼在水面跳跃，潜游。美丽的湛碧楼被四面荷香环绕。龙舟载着我们来到小岛，登上这座湛碧楼。杭州女导游的解说让我们得知，南宋时，湛碧楼一带是宫廷制曲作坊所在，称“风荷御酒坊”。因作坊取金沙涧的溪水造曲酒，而附近湖池又遍种菱荷，每当夏日风起，酒香荷香沁人，于是得名“曲院风荷”。古代湛碧楼是文人们喝茶聊天的佳处，达官贵人兴致上来，在这里应景抒情，吟诗做画，写书法，对佳句。
　　喜欢西湖，喜欢孤山，喜欢孤山梅树林，当我们踏着小径，穿行于梅林，疏影横斜、暗香浮动，心神会感到更加的闲适和淡然。

Shanghai

Shanghai , city (1994 est. pop. 12,980,000), in, but independent of, Jiangsu prov., E China, on the Huangpu (Whangpoo) River where it flows into the Chang (Yangtze) estuary. It is an independent unit (2,400 sq mi/6,218 sq km) administered directly by the central government. One of the world's great seaports, Shanghai is China's largest city.
Economy

The only large port of central China not cut off from the interior by mountains, it is the natural seaward outlet of, and the gateway to, the Chang basin, one of China's richest regions. It handles much of the country's foreign shipping and a large coastal trade. Great sums are expended to keep open its continually silting harbor. A submarine base is in the harbor. A new deepwater port, Yangshan, located on islands 17 mi (27.5 km) SE of Shanghai in the South China Sea, opened in 2005; the port is connected to the mainland by the Dongbai Bridge. Although water transport is of prime importance, highways radiate outward, and there are rail connections with Nanjing and Hangzhou, with links through those cities to the N and S China networks. A new international airport opened in Pudong (East Shanghai) in 1999.

Despite a lack of fuel and raw materials, Shanghai is China's leading industrial city, with large steelworks; textile mills; shipbuilding yards; oil-refining, gas-extracting, and diamond-processing operations; and plants making light and heavy machinery, electrical, electronic, and computer equipment, machine tools, turbines, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, aircraft, tractors, motor vehicles, plastics, and consumer goods. The city is a major publishing center. Shanghai includes much of the surrounding rural area (over 2,000 sq mi/5,000 sq km); there farms produce the food crops that support the city's population.

In the 1970s and 80s, Shanghai's industrial base was shifted to include more light industries in order to reduce pollution. There was much rebuilding and expansion; new factories emerged around the outskirts of the city, and the northwest section was developed as an industrial district. Development in the 1990s concentrated on Pudong, an area formerly dominated by farms and marshland that was designated a special economic development zone. A project to divert much-needed water for the city from the Chang River into the Huangpu was completed in 1996. The 1990s also brought new bridges and tunnels and a subway system.

Landmarks and Institutions

The city's commercial section, the former International Settlement, is modern and Western in appearance, with broad streets and boulevards lined with imposing buildings. The Bund (which runs along the waterfront), Nanjing Road, and Bubbling Well Road are the most noted thoroughfares. Typical Asian buildings are found only in the original Chinese town (no longer walled), known as Nanshi. The Oriental Pearl Television Tower (1,535 ft/468 m high), the 88-story Jin Mao building, and the butterfly-orchid-shaped Oriental Arts Center with its four performance halls are in Pudong.

Next to Beijing, Shanghai is the country's foremost educational center and houses Fudan Univ., Jiaotong Univ., Shanghai Univ. of Science and Technology, Tongji Univ., three medical colleges, and numerous technological and scientific institutes. Shanghai has an astronomical observatory and many research institutes and learned societies. People's Square, refurbished in the late 1990s, is the site of an opera house and a museum containing the country's finest collection of Chinese art (both 1996).

History

The name Shanghai dates from the Sung dynasty (11th cent.), but the town, which became a walled city in the 16th cent., was unimportant until it was opened to foreign trade by the Treaty of Nanjing in 1842. The ensuing Western influence launched the city on its phenomenal growth. The greater part of the city was incorporated into the British concession (1843), just north of the old walled city, and into the U.S. concession of Hongkew (1862). In 1863 the United States and Great Britain consolidated into the International Settlement the areas that had been conceded to them. The French, who had obtained a concession in 1849, continued it as a separate entity. The foreign zones, which were under extraterritorial administration, maintained their own courts, police system, and armed forces. Thus Shanghai until World War II was a divided city.

In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek, at the head of the Nationalist army and with the support of the Chinese Communists, captured Shanghai. The Chinese section was immediately placed under the Kuomintang government. Japan invaded and attacked the Chinese city in 1932 to force the government to break an unofficial boycott of Japanese goods. In Aug., 1937, as part of the Second Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese again attacked the Chinese city, and resistance was overcome in November. The foreign zones were occupied by the Japanese after Dec. 7, 1941.

In 1943 the United States and Great Britain renounced their claims in Shanghai, as did France in 1946. The city was restored to China at the end of World War II, and the Chinese central government for the first time gained control of the entire city. In May, 1949, it fell to the Communist forces. Since Pudong (East Shanghai) was declared (1990) a special development zone, government and foreign investment has revived Shanghai as an international trade and financial center.
