高一 Project Creating an illustrated time chartThe project in this unit is designed to help you learn and use English through doing a project. The reading material about the activities of the Romans and the Chinese from 753 BC until AD 589 is a sample used to show us how to create an illustrated time chart. The time chart can help you gain a clear understanding of the development of a certain historical period. The purpose of this section is to encourage you to use what you have learnt to complete a project. In the course of doing the project, you will compare what events and changes are happening at the same time in the two different places and make a clear and correct time chart. Please cooperate and complete each part of the work together.Reading1. I ll divide you into four groups. Each group should only focus on one paragraph in Part A. Then one member of each group should report the main idea of each paragraph to the whole class. Paragraph 1 Main events in Rome and China between 753 BC and 479 BCParagraph 2Similarities between China and Rome during the Han DynastyParagraph 3Both Rome and China influenced other areas between 212 BC and 100 BC.Paragraph 4Rome and China had a difficult time in the following hundred years.2.

It started from Changan in the East, an ancient capital of China (Xian today), to the east bank of the Mediterranean in the West. The Silk Road greatly influenced the cultures of China, Central Asia and the West. However, today there are only a few scenic and historical sites left on this road.

Emperor Sui Wendi reunited the north, centralized the government, reformed the taxation policies, conquered the south, established building projects, was a great economist, and chose Buddhism as the state religion. His son fought a war against Korea, which along with natural disasters bankrupted the economy, which led to revolt and the overthrow of the Sui Dynasty.

He also encouraged people to learn about new things, and always try to consider other people around them.
