It was three o’clock. A man was walking down a street in the north of England. He was wearing a dark suit and carrying a suitcase. His name was Terry and lived away from home for twenty years. In fact, he was in prison (監(jiān)獄) abroad.

Terry was feeling totally depressed because everything in his hometown changed. The park where he used to play was now a car park. The house where he was born disappeared and in its place, ironically (具有諷刺意味地), was a bank.

And it was the same shoe repairer! He looked about a hundred years old. Terry was so happy! Terry told him that he had lived in Australia for the past twenty years and that he forgot to pick up the shoes before he left England. The shoe repairer disappeared into the back of the shop.

The famous saying “He who does not reach the Great Wall is not a true man”. It shows clearly that the Great Wall is really a wonderful place to visit. As the longest wall on the earth, also one of the wonders in the world, the Great Wall runs across North China like a huge dragon. It has a history of over 2,000 years and it has been rebuilt and repaired many times. Many people died while building the wall. The workers didn’t build the wall with machines but finished the work all by hand. As one of the few man—made objects on the Earth that can be seen on the moon, it’s visited by large numbers of people from all parts of the country and the world.
