What is it? 春秋战国时期，燕赵国诸侯为了防御别国入侵。修筑烽火台，并用城墙连接起来，形成了最早的长城。以后历代君王几乎都加固增修长城。它因长达几万里，故又称作“万里长城”。 长城美景。据记载，秦始皇使用了近百万劳动力修筑长城，占当时全国总人口的二十分之一。当时没有任何机械，全部劳动都由人力完成，工作环境又是崇山峻岭、峭壁深壑，十分艰难。长城始建于春秋战国时期，历史达2000多年，今天所指的万里长城多指明代修建的长城。古今中外，凡到过长城的人无不惊叹它的磅礴气势、宏伟规模、艰巨工程与防患意义。它融汇了古人的智慧、意志、毅力以及承受力。故此，长城是一座稀世珍宝，也是艺术非凡的文物古迹，它象征着中华民族坚不可摧而永存于世的伟大意志和力量，是中华民族的骄傲，也是整个世界的骄傲 。 Listen and answer How long is the Great Wall?
