长城：The Chinese were already familiar with the techniques of wall-building by the time of the Spring and Autumn Period， which began around the 8th century BC During the Warring States Period from the 5th century BC to 221 BC， the states of Qi， Yan and Zhao all constructed extensive fortifications to defend their own Built to withstand the attack of small arms such as swords and spears， these walls were made mostly by stamping earth and gravel between board Qin Shi Huang conquered all opposing states and unified China in 221 BC， establishing the Qin D Intending to impose centralized rule and prevent the resurgence of feudal lords， he ordered the destruction of the wall sections that divided his empire along the former state To protect the empire against intrusions by the Xiongnu people from the north， he ordered the building of a new wall to connect the remaining fortifications along the empire's new northern Transporting the large quantity of materials required for construction was difficult， so builders always tried to use local Stones from the mountains were used over mountain ranges， while rammed earth was used for construction in the There are no surviving historical records indicating the exact length and course of the Qin Dynasty Most of the ancient walls have eroded away over the centuries， and very few sections remain Later， the Han， Sui， Northern and Jin dynasties all repaired， rebuilt， or expanded sections of the Great Wall at great cost to defend themselves against northern The Great Wall concept was revived again during the Ming Dynasty following the Ming army's defeat by the Oirats in the Battle of Tumu in The Ming had failed to gain a clear upper-hand over the Manchurian and Mongolian tribes after successive battles， and the long-drawn conflict was taking a toll on the The Ming adopted a new strategy to keep the nomadic tribes out by constructing walls along the northern border of C Acknowledging the Mongol control established in the Ordos Desert， the wall followed the desert's southern edge instead of incorporating the bend of the Huang HPhotograph of the Great Wall in 1907Unlike the earlier Qin fortifications， the Ming construction was stronger and more elaborate due to the use of bricks and stone instead of rammed As Mongol raids continued periodically over the years， the Ming devoted considerable resources to repair and reinforce the Sections near the Ming capital of Beijing were especially [10]During the 1440s–1460s， the Ming also built a so-called "Liaodong Wall" Similar in function to the Great Wall (whose extension it， in a sense， was)， but more basic in construction， the Liaodong Wall enclosed the agricultural heartland of the Liaodong province， protecting it against potential incursions by Jurched-Mongol Oriyanghan from the northwest and the Jianzhou Jurchens from the While stones and tiles were used in some parts of the Liaodong Wall， most of it was in fact simply an earth dike with moats on both [11]Towards the end of the Ming Dynasty， the Great Wall helped defend the empire against the Manchu invasions that began around Under the military command of Yuan Chonghuan， the Ming army held off the Manchus at the heavily fortified Shanhaiguan pass， preventing the Manchus from entering the Chinese The Manchus were finally able to cross the Great Wall in 1644， when the gates at Shanhaiguan were opened by Wu Sangui， a Ming border general who disliked the activities of rulers of the Shun D The Manchus quickly seized Beijing， and defeated the newly founded Shun Dynasty and remaining Ming resistance， to establish the Qing DIn 2009， an additional 290 kilometres (180 miles) of previously undetected portions of the wall， built during the Ming Dynasty， were The newly discovered sections range from the Hushan mountains in the northern Liaoning province to Jiayuguan in western Gansu The sections had been submerged over time by sandstorms that moved across the arid [12]Under Qing rule， China's borders extended beyond the walls and Mongolia was annexed into the empire， so construction and repairs on the Great Wall were 金钱不是万能的：Money will buy me a house， but not a home， a bed， but not a good night's - Zig ZiglarIs Money Everything? This was the title of my speech at a seminar in Central London organised by Find Your V Many professional speakers from all walks of life attended and delivered messages that motivated and empowered people to take control of their I was one of the four speakers and the theme was: "Money Makes the World Go R" I would like to share the views I expressed at the seminar with One of the problems with literature about success is that most of the time the word 'success' is usually interpreted as material success or This usually includes the amount of money a person earns or has; the type of car they drive and the size and location of their However， we need to remind ourselves that true success isn't just Hollywood's definition of it!Success is a journey and not a The mistake most people make is aligning money with Money is only a medium of exchange and can never be measured side-by-side with I believe that success can be divided into eight categories; these are: spiritual， health， family， career & business， financial， self-development/intellectual， personal needs， and It is therefore worth noting that true success is not just when you are financially rich， rather it is when you are rich in all of the eight Money can buy you material possessions， but it cannot buy you happiness and peace of Money is used in exchange for other things， but this paper money we spend ( Pounds， Naira， Dollars， etc) is not the only money we should There are hidden 'monies' in all of us; the only problem is discovering we have such 'monies' within Let us consider this; if one is only financially wealthy and lacks the intellect to make other riches， or is unsuccessful in their family life and health， then the person is as good as being Let us not be overly carried away by this mere medium of exchange - money - and fail to consider other aspects of I once knew a rich man， who， in spite of his wealth， is deficient in his He died despite the great financial wealth he had Would you say such a man was wealthy? N Why? Because he was only monetarily wealthy - this appeared to be at the expense of his I was at the mansion of one of my mentors， Richie Dayo Johnson， in Netherne-On- the-Hill， Surrey and as we sat down in his study that Sunday evening I asked: " DJ (as I fondly call him) tell me what money can and can not He replied， "Dayo， money can buy you a house， but it can't buy you a Money can buy you insurance， but it can't buy you Money can buy you entertainment， but it can't buy you Money can buy you medicine， but it can't buy you good Money can buy you a bed， but it can't buy you Money can buy you companionship， but it can't buy you Money can buy you sex， but it can't buy you Money is called currency， because it is designed to flow through Money doesn't change you; it only reveals who you truly "I totally agree with Richie Dayo J In addition to this， I believe that money can buy you many women but it cannot buy you a good It can buy you a good book， but it cannot buy you wisdom and It can sponsor you through school， but it cannot buy you However， the things money can buy are temporal but the things money cannot buy are， most times， Who are you when you have money and who are you when you don't have? The bottom line is that money does not change you; it merely uncovers Why don't you take time to reflect on those things money cannot buy; you may be surprised to realise that money is actually not everything?Is your spiritual life in order? Are you enjoying good health? Are you in control of your finances? Are you developing yourself intellectually? Are you giving back to the society? If you answer YES to all these questions， then you can confidently say that you are prospering and therefore Now tell me， IS MONEY EVERYTHING?
