Probably you have seen photographs of the Grand Canyon(峡谷),the great valley in the desert country of Arizona.But you must go
there yourself to feel its true size and beauty.The Grand Canyon is one of the greatest natural wonders of the world.
The Colorado River formed the Grand Canyon over millions of years.Slowly,the river cut down through hard rock.At the same
time,the land was rising.Today,the canyon is one and a half kilometres deep and 445 kilometres long.The oldest rocks at the
bottom of the canyon are more than 1 billion years old.The width varies from about 200 metres to 29 kilometres across.The rim(
边缘)or top of the canyon is about 2,300 metes above sea level on the South Rim,and about 3,000 metres on the other side,the
North Rim.As a result,there are different kinds of plants and animals on opposite sides of the canyon.The South Rim is a dry
desert country.The North Rim has tall forests.
The canyon looks different at different times of day,and in different seasons and weather.At sunrise and sun-set the red ,gold
,brown,and orange colours of the rocks are especially clear and bright.In winter,the canyon is partly covered with snow.
The view from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon is the best.Most visitors come to the South Rim and stay in campgrounds or
hotels.Every point along the canyon's edge offers a different view.
The North Rim of the Canyon is quieter.It takes all day to drive there from the South Rim because there is only one bridge
across the Colorado River.On the way,you go through Navado Indian lands,and a colorful pink desert called "The Painted
Desert".
You can walk down into the Grand Canyon,or you can go down on the back of a mule(小型电动机车).You can also take a boat trip
down the Colorado River,and camp on the beaches at night .But whether you see the Grand Canyon from the top or the bottom,it
will be an experience that you will never forget.

你也许看过大峡谷（克罗拉多大峡谷）的照片---亚历桑那州荒芜野外,巨大的山谷.但你一定得亲自去才能感受到它真正的壮阔,美丽.大峡谷是世界自然奇迹之一.
克罗拉多河流淌了数百万年,河水侵蚀岩石,地面上升,形成了大峡谷.现在,大峡谷有1500米深,445公里长,谷底的岩石形成于10亿年前.峡谷宽度从200到29公里不等.大峡谷北边海拔2300米,南边海拔3000米.这样,峡谷南北两边的动植物种类各不相同.南边是荒芜的沙漠,北边有生长着高大树木的森林.
一天中的不同时间里,不同季节,不同天气,大峡谷都会呈现不同的景色.日落日出时,岩石呈现出红色,金色,褐色,橘黄色,格外清晰,明亮.冬天,大峡谷有的地方被白雪覆盖.大峡谷南边的景色是最美的,很多游客都来这里,住在宿营地或酒店.峡谷的边上的景色各异.北边比较安静,从南边开车过来要一整天,因为只有一座桥跨过克罗拉多河.路上你会经过一个叫“Navado”的印第安人聚居地,和一个叫“画板沙漠”色彩艳丽的粉色沙漠.你可以从这里走进大峡谷,也可以坐小型电动机车下去,也可以乘小船游览克罗拉多河,晚上可以在河边露营.不过不论你论你游览的是谷顶还是谷底,都将成为你一生难忘的经历.
