孙中山故居中英文导游词

　　The Former Residence of Dr. Sun Yat-sen

　　（孙中山故居）

　　Ladies and gentlemen,

　　Good morning! Speaking of Cuiheng Village, Chinese citizens will have a familiar and friendly feeling. It is because this village is the home town and birth place of the man behind China's first democratic revolution, Sun Yat-sen. It is located southeast of Nanlang Town, Zhongshan City. It is near the Pearl River to the east, while Qi'ao Island, Zhuhai City is directly opposite the village, across the South China Sea. Finally, Wugui Hill is directly west of Cuiheng Village. The village is now home not only to Sun Yat-sen's former residence, but to a Sun Yat-sen monumental middle school and movie city as well, all of which are related to or named after the father of modern and democratic China .

　　Besides being rich in history, Cuiheng village is next to mountains and the sea. This good geographical setting and its exquisite natural environment make the village's inhabitants carefree and happy. While walking in the village or stepping onto the Cuishan road, one will feel like he/she is in a forest “paradise” of trees, flowers and birds. Even within the village, you can gaze at the distant hills and cliffs. The vegetation here is well protected, so the forest is verdant and luxuriantly green. Along the two sides of the Cuishan road, the dark green umbrage helps cool the air and provides Cuiheng village with a natural air-conditioner. Even during the sultry summers, you can enjoy the mountain's cool breezes and green shade.

　　Sun Yat-sen's former residence is located at the Cuiheng Village and faces west. The residence sits on a 500 square meter area site and is itself 340 square meters. Sun Yat-sen built it with the money sent from Honolulu by his elder brother Sun Mei in1892. We are now standing in front of Sun Yat-sen's former residence. The building is a half-timber house and combines Western and Chinese architectural styles with a wall surrounding the courtyard. Its outward appearance imitates a Western building and its upper floor has seven ember ornamental arches. The middle of the house's penthouse is decorated with aureole under which there is an annotated hawk with a silver ring in its mouth. Going inside, we can see that the building's interior is designed in traditional Chinese architectural style. The parquet is in the middle, while separate penthouses are off to two of the parquet's sides. The four brick walls are grey with white line outlining every brick, and the windows each with two leaves open under the-main roof beam. There are doors at all the four sides of the house that lead out to the street. A well is off to the right side of the courtyard, and the area of about 32 square meters surrounding the well is the place where San Yat-sen was born on November 12,1866.

　　Now we are in the parquet of the former residence. The ornaments of the hall were decorated by Sun Yat-sen himself. Please look at the two kerosene burners put on the abutment; Sun Yat-sen brought them here from Honolulu in 1883. The penthouse off to the right is Sun Yat-sen's bedroom. The bedroom still contains his big wooden bed, dresser table and the wooden bench. Sun Yat-sen lived here from 1892 t0 1895 and in 1912. Stepping up to the second floor, the south part of the floor has Sun Yat-sen's study. Sun Yat-sen's photo, taken when he was 17 years old, hangs on the wall. This study also has some of the things Sun Yat-sen used everyday, such as his desk, chair and iron bed.

　　Let's return to the courtyard. There is a wild jujube tree off to the left. It was brought by Sun from Honolulu in 1883 and he planted it himself. It grows well. Off to the right, there is a brick raised flowerbed.

　　There is a big banyan tree in front of the former residence. There Sun Yat-sen used to listen to the stories of the Taiping generals against Qing told by the old farmers who had fought in the Taiping army.

　　Everyone, that is all. Thank you for visiting Sun Yat-sen's former residence!

　　各位游客，

　　大家好！提起翠亨村，国人都有一种熟悉而亲切的感觉，因为它是中国民主革命先行者孙中山先生的故乡。它地处中山市南朗镇东南部，东临珠江口伶仃洋，与珠海市淇澳岛隔海相望，西靠五桂山。至今，翠亨村和国父有关的，或者以国父命名的地方有孙中山故居、中山纪念中学、中山影视城。到这里，可以踏寻伟人足迹，缅怀峥嵘岁月。

　　除了丰富的人文历史内涵，翠亨村傍山滨海，气候宜人，优越的地理位置和优美的自然环境也令游人心旷神怡。在村里漫步，或者走上翠山公路，就如同置身于林木葱茏、鸟语花香的世外桃源中。不用出村，你就可以看到远处峰峦叠嶂，这里的植被保护得很好，满眼苍翠，林木葱茏。在翠山公路两侧，浓绿的树荫带来一阵清凉，这里是翠亨村天然的空调，即便是酷暑时节，在这里你也可以享受山风和绿荫带来的凉意。

　　孙中山故居位于南朗镇翠亨村，坐东向西，占地面积500平方米，建筑面积340平方米，是孙中山长兄孙眉1892年从檀香山汇款回来，由孙中山主持建成的。故居是一幢砖木结构、中西结合的两层楼房，并有一道围墙环绕着庭院。它的外表仿照西方建筑，楼房上层各有七个赭红色装饰性的拱门。屋檐正中饰有光环，换下雕绘一只口衔钱环的飞鹰。走进楼内，我们可以看到内部设计采用中国传统的建筑形式，中间是正厅，左右分两个耳房，四壁砖墙呈灰砖色，勾出白色间线，窗户在正梁下对开。居屋内前后左右均有门通向街外，左旋右转均可回到原来的起步点。在庭院右边有一口水井，水井周围（约32平方米）是孙中山诞生时的旧房所在地。1886年11月12日，孙中山诞生于此。

　　现在我们来到了故居的正厅，厅内摆设是孙中山亲自布置的。请看放置在桥台上的两盏煤油灯，这是1883年，孙中山从檀香山带回来的。右边的耳房是孙中山卧室，当年所用的大木床、梳牧台和凳子等，仍旧摆放着。1892 ——1895年、1912年，孙中山都曾在此住过。走上二楼，南边是孙中山的书房，墙上挂着孙中山十七岁时的照片，室内有孙中日常使用过得书桌、台椅、铁床。

　　回到故居庭院，庭院左边栽植一棵酸枣树，那是孙中山1883年从檀香山带回来种子亲手栽种的，生势茁壮茂盛，右边是砖砌的花台。

　　故居庭院前的大榕树，是孙中山童年时代听参加过太平军的老人讲述太平天国将领反清故事的地方。

　　各位游客，孙中山故居就为大家讲解到这儿，谢谢各位的支持！
