广播员风采 <p class="ql-block">合：Hello，everyone.My name is Dai Haoyu. Hi，I’m Xie Yuxiang.</p><p class="ql-block">D: Today I'm going to talk about “why our country is called China”，and the history behind this name. </p><p class="ql-block"> The name China is sought to come from the word Qin, which was the name of the first dynasty to unite our country over over 2000 years ago. The Qin Dynasty was lead by Emperor Qin Shi Huang who is famous for unifying many regions, building the first Great Wall and creating a strong central government. The word Qin was heard by foreign “Chin”traders and travelers and over time,it became known as China in the west. In ancient times, China was famous for its beautiful silk, which was highly valued in Europe and other parts of the world. Merchants traveled long distances on the Silk Road. A trade route that connected China was Europe. As they traded silk tea and spices, they also spread the name of our country.Interestingly, the word China also became associated with fine porcelain which was another famous product of ancient China. Chinese percelain was admired for its beauty、durability and craftsmanship and it was exportded to many countries.Over time the name China in English came to mean high quality ceramics a reflection of China's influence in art and trade. Even though the name China started from the Qin Dynasty, our history is much older. Chinese civilization goes back more than 5000 years with many great inventions like paper, gunpowder and compass.Today China is powerful and modern nation, but we still honor our ancient traditions. So the name China tells a story about our rich history and how our country has been known to the world for thousands of years. It reminds us of our proud past and our bright future.
