The Silk Road is a historically important international trade route between China and the Mediterranean.Because silk comprised a large proportion of trade along this road, in 1877, it was named the Silk Road by an eminent German geographer.This ancient road begins at Chang’an, then by way of the Hexi Corridor，and it reaches Dunhuang, where it divides into three, the Southern Route，Central Route and Northern Route.The three routes spread all over the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and then they extend as far as Pakistan, India and even Rome.6.四合院是从明代的北京延续下来的古典建筑风格的住宅。四合 院之间的狭窄的街道被称为“胡同”。_个四合院有园林包围着四个 房子，有高高的围墙保护。四合院与胡同都是人们常见到的，有超 过700多年的历史，但是由于现在的城市改造和中国经济的发展，四合院慢慢地从北京消失。
