金字塔



埃及是世界上历史最悠久的文明古国之一。金字塔是古埃及文明的代表作,是埃及国家的象征,是埃及人民的骄傲。


  金字塔,阿拉伯文意为"方锥体",它是一种方底,尖顶的石砌建筑物,是古代埃及埋葬国王、王后或王室其他成员的陵墓。它既不是金子做的,也不是我们通常所见的宝塔形。是由于它规模宏大,从四面看都呈等腰三角形,很像汉语中的"金"字,故中文形象地把它译为"金字塔"。

  埃及迄今发现的金字塔共约八十座,其中最大的是以高耸巍峨而被古代世界七大奇迹之首的胡夫大金字塔。在1889年巴黎埃菲尔铁塔落成前的四千多年的漫长岁月中,胡夫大金字塔一直是世界上最高的建筑物。

  据一位名叫彼得的英国考古学者估计,胡夫大金字塔大约由230万块石块砌成,外层石块约115000块,平均每块重2.5吨,像一辆小汽车那样大,而大的甚至超过15吨。假如把这些石块凿成平均一立方英尺的小块,把它们沿赤道排成一行,其长度相当于赤道周长的三分之二。

  在四千多年前生产工具很落后的中古时代,埃及人是怎样采集、搬运数量如此之多,每块又如此之重的巨石垒成如此宏伟的大金字塔,真是十分难解的谜。

胡夫大金字塔底边原长230米,由于塔的外层石灰石脱落,现在底边减短为227米。塔原高146.5米,经风化腐蚀,现降至137米。塔的底角为51。51'。整个金字塔建筑在一块巨大的凸形岩石上,占地约52900平方米,体积约260万立方米。它的四边正对着东南西北四个方向。

科学家约瑟•大力杜维斯提出了他惊人的见解:金字塔上的巨石是人造的。大卫杜维斯借助显微镜和化学分析的方法,认真研究了巨石的构造。他根据化验结果得出这样的结论:金字塔上的石头是用石灰和贝壳经人工浇筑混凝而成的,其方法类似今天浇灌混凝士。

  由于这种混合物凝固硬结得十分好,人们难以分辨出它和天然石头的差别。此外,大卫杜维斯还提出-个颇具说服力的佐证:在石头中他发现了一缕约1英寸长的人发,唯一可能的解释是,工人在操作时不慎将这缕头发掉进了混凝土中,保存至今。

  一些科学家认为,鉴于现代考古研究业已证实人类早在数千年前就知道如何制作混凝士,所以大卫杜维斯的论断颇为可信。但少数学者对此提出了质疑,他们说:既然开罗附近有许多花岗岩山丘,那么,古埃及人为什么要舍此而去用一种复杂的操作方法来制造那难以数计的石头?看来,金字塔之谜并未完全破译,还有待人们进一步去研究、探索。

  另外,埃及胡夫大金字塔的塔高乘上10亿所得的数,和地球到太阳之间的距离相等;穿过大金字塔的子午线把地球上的陆地、海洋分成相等的两半;用两倍塔高除以塔底面积等于圆周率。以上这些都是巧合吗?科学家还发现,金字搭似乎具有一种神秘的力量,它作用于人体或其他物体,会产生某些奇异的效应。最初发现金字塔具有一种神秘的力量的是法国人鲍比,他进入大金字塔里考察时,发现塔内温度较高,但残留于塔内的生物遗体却不腐烂,反而脱水变干,保存久远。因此,鲍比推测塔内可能有某种不可思议的力量在起作用。



  公元820年,开罗回教总督卡利夫•阿尔玛门找到了现代考古学家所称的“玛门穴”。这条通道深入金字塔内部,并连接数条通道。而金字塔真正的入口,就在玛门穴上方,离地表约55英呎的地方。

  而从入口进入大金字塔,一开始便是一条呈26度角倾斜的下坡道,直行而下会遇到另一条上坡道;直下更是一条通达金字塔底部约350英尺长的下坡道。在通道尽头,是一间位于金字塔正下方600英尺的石室。上坡道则是一条向上呈26度的通道,通道内很难让人直立起身体。

  到达上坡道顶端後,迎面而来的正是有名的“大甬道”;同样保持26度角向上爬升。大甬道的下方有另外一条水平的通道,通向南方,高度为3英尺9英寸、长127英尺,直通往所谓的“王后墓室”;在南北两侧,各有一条9英寸宽、8英寸高的通气孔。值得注意的是,这两条通气孔并没有连结到金字塔外;没有人晓得原因!而皇后殿内则自金字塔发掘以来便空无一物,到底这个石室的建造目的是什么,还是谜团!

  大甬道更是一大迷团!它的地板宽度有6英尺9英寸,墙壁高度有7英尺6英寸,随之而上的是七层石块,每层向内伸出3英寸,直到顶部密合,高度则达到28英尺。大甬道全长达153英尺,内壁是用巨形磨光石灰岩板紧密接合而成。大甬道以26度的斜度向上延伸,又必须承受住在其上方百万吨的重量,这种惊人的建筑技巧及目的,实在是令人不解。

  大甬道的尽头连接的是传说中法老王尸体放置的“国王墓室”。入口只有3英呎6英吋高,任何人进入都要弯着身体。进去不到4英呎,便有一间“前堂”,高达12英呎。长约10英呎。横向有四条纵向渠道。其中三条一路凹到地面,第四条只挖到入口屋顶的高度(3英呎6英吋),凹槽内还嵌有一块6英呎高9英吋厚的巨形玄武岩石板,挡在入口前,仅留下21英吋的空间。据专家解释,这里是放置防止盗墓者侵入的巨大石板的,石板在凹槽中由上向下降下,好象活门一样,只是现在这些石板都不见踪影。它们哪里去了呢?

  胡夫金字塔奇谈种种

  由于缺乏史料记载,有关金字塔的许多疑团很长时间以来一直难以解释,探索和研究金字塔还在继续向着广度和深度开发。关于金字塔的各种议论五花八门,其中既有科学的考证,大胆的推测,又有神奇的假设,想入非非的臆测,更有一些庸人、巫师提出种种扑朔迷离,荒诞不经的说法,妄图把人们引入迷魂阵中,不知不觉地跟在他们后面,成为他们宗教迷信宣传的俘虏。

  下面介绍一些怪论供参考。这些说法的共同特点是否认金字塔是古埃及人建造的,否认它是国王的陵墓,而是把它与神和上帝联在一起,给它抹上一层神秘的色彩。

  有人认为:在那邈远的年代,古埃及人怎么能达到如此高的科技水平?这些“超级知识”从何而来?为什么没有被继承下来?胡夫大金字塔不是古埃及人造的,而是外星人建造的。他们建造成后返回外星。比地球上文明更先进的“外星球文明”一直同人类保持着联系。

  还有人认为:胡夫金字塔是由失踪了的亚特兰蒂斯岛先民所造。据说,这个岛屿位于大西洋直布罗陀海峡以西,在公元前一万年曾创造过辉煌的文明。后来在“悲惨的一昼夜”,该岛突然沉于海底。该岛的科学家们提前撤离,一部分人带着科技资料在埃及建立了科学中心,并参照该岛庙建造了胡夫金字塔,把他们的全部科学知识隐藏于塔的内部结构中。

  再有人认为:居住在非洲阿特拉斯山中麓一个柏伯尔部落建造了胡夫金字塔。据说,古代撒哈拉土地肥沃,物产丰富,居住着几支部落。后来土地逐渐沙漠化,部落东迁至尼罗河河谷。酋长成了埃及国王。他们动用部落的法术,建造了金字塔。尔后,他们掐指一算,认为人类将蒙受一段黑暗的时期于是各部落立即疏散到世界各地,其中有一只转移到阿特拉斯山。

    另外,有人认为:胡夫金字塔不是陵墓,而是外星人到地球上来的一个降落地点,是天神下界的停留站;是人类历史上第一座秘密庙宇,一个仓库储藏着开天辟地以来直到世界末日的历史上的重要文献;是天文台,用以观察苍穹,了解星辰的运行,占补未来;是多功能的计量器,可用于测绘大量土地,可计算时间,确定一年月有365.2422天。

还有人说,胡夫在金字塔内的真正殡宫尚未发现,吉萨三座金字塔的下面有一座完整的地下城市,街道纵横,连通着地面上所有的金字塔,地下城门只有一种特殊的声音才能将他唤开,一旦城门和胡夫殡宫被发现,惊人之迹将展现在人们的面前……

“味道不错,还有吗?”

“还有两粒”

强盗B抢到药丸就吞了下去。“这是什么挺好吃的,我下次也买。”

“这是aptx4869的改良型。”

“啊?!”

不一会儿,强盗B变成了一个比灰原还矮的5岁男孩。

“一粒药丸会减小10岁,你吃了三粒变成了5岁,也就是说,你的真实年龄是35岁。药效会持续7天。好好享受吧。”

“哇——————”小小小强盗B哭了。“这都是什么小孩啊!”

我的老师在班上发飙

好可怕,第一次见他那么火,完全不顾一个老师应有的形象狠批另一个老师。

我坐在他前面,不知为何不敢抬头看他,心中隐隐不舒服。

他狠批的那个老师,是班上同学最敬爱最喜欢,也是老师的朋友。

他们两人常常一起聊天,同学甚至笑他们老是黏在一起是不是有什么。

借着书上同名的角色,他狠狠骂他,说他“自以为清高,不爱与其他老师打交道”,又什么“对学生是疼得要命,对老师或校方指示却爱理不理”。

我不明白他为什么这么说,但他也太过火了吧,人家好歹堂堂一个老师,你就在大家面前骂他?而且还吐口水?你**的,到底谁粗俗些?

老师,我敬你是我的老师,请你别自己破坏了自己的形象。

【转载】Daily Encounter ... Characteristics of Maturity, Part II

Personal honesty. Another major characteristic of maturity that is vital for healthy relationships and meaningful living is personal honesty both with others and with one's self. Without personal honesty I don't believe that intellectual honesty is possible. To the degree that I am dishonest and out of touch with my own reality, the more I will distort all other factors and truths to make them match my distorted perception of reality. On the other hand, the more honest I am, the clearer I will see all other truth, including God's truth.




Personal honesty includes being in touch with and honest about our true feelings/emotions (many of which have been long since buried and denied). It also means being honest about our motives. This may be the most challenging area of personal honesty because most of us have hidden agendas, be they conscious or subconscious. Unfortunately, hidden agendas cause people to become disgustingly manipulative.



Being honest is being real, transparent, and authentic. It's a tough call but the only healthy and mature way to live. It means being known for who we truly are (warts and all) by at least one or two trusted friends. It allows us to see both our strengths and weaknesses that, in turn, will help us to develop and use our strengths creatively and work on overcoming our weaknesses.



Being honest is also God's plan for each one of us. His Word says: "We will lovingly follow the truth at all times—speaking truly, dealing truly, living truly—and so become more in every way like Christ who is the Head of his body, the church."2 And again, "Surely you [God] desire truth in the inner parts; you teach me wisdom in the inmost place."3



Spiritual maturity. This will be seen, not in how well we know our Bible, how many church services we attend, or how many religious activities we are involved in (all of which are important when done from pure motives), but in having a healthy relationship with God. In fact, over-busyness in religious activities may be a cover-up of areas of immaturity.



Think of Mary and Martha, friends of Jesus, for example. When Jesus came to visit in their home, one can imagine how excited Martha must have been as she busily labored in the kitchen over a hot oven to prepare a special meal for their special guest. However, she complained to Jesus about Mary who wasn't helping with the preparations, but just sitting and visiting with Jesus. This sounds like a reasonable complaint to me. I probably would have been ticked off with Mary too. However, Jesus saw it differently.



Here's the scene: "But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him [Jesus] and said, 'Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me.' And Jesus answered and said to her, 'Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.'"4



In our language, Martha may have been a workaholic keeping busy to avoid facing some painful issue/s in her life. On the other hand, relating to Jesus was more important to Mary than busily preparing a meal for him. What Martha and Mary were both doing was important, but what was more important was the motive behind their actions. It's good to do work for God but more important is our relationship with him, and that we have pure motives. Loving and relating to God is a vital part of spiritual maturity out of which genuine service is to flow. Service used as a way of avoiding any unresolved personal issue is not service, but a way of escape from facing reality.

【转载】Characteristics of Maturity, Part I

If I were asked, "How can you tell if a person is mature?" I would respond by saying, "If a person consistently acts in a mature manner, he would be a mature person. However, if on the other hand he consistently acts in an immature manner, you can be certain that he would be an immature person." As Aristotle said, "We are what we repeatedly do."

While none of us is perfect or completely mature, if we understand the characteristics of maturity, we can work on these areas to grow in maturity. While there are many characteristics, the following certainly would be among the top five:


Emotional maturity. While spiritual maturity is reflected in the quality of our relationship to God, emotional maturity is reflected in the quality of our relationships with people. They go hand in hand. As God's Words say, "If anyone says, 'I love God,' yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen."1 Thus, in reality, I'm no closer to God than I am to people.







Without a reasonable level of emotional maturity, it is virtually impossible to have healthy interpersonal relationships. Immaturity is without doubt a major cause of impaired relationships and failed marriages. Emotional maturity means that we will have a healthy self-concept—not thinking too highly or too lowly of ourselves. This will include a healthy sense of self-acceptance and self-worth, which will also determine how well we do in many other areas of life. If I fail to accept myself in a healthy way, it makes it extremely difficult to accept others in a healthy way. This is because the issues I reject in myself, I will automatically reject in others.






Emotional maturity also involves being in touch with all of our God-given emotions and that these are well integrated into every area of life. Unless one is connected to his or her inner-self (his/her emotions and motives), meaningful communications and intimate relationships are impossible. It also requires that, wherever possible, impaired relationships from the past are resolved, that we have forgiven all who have ever hurt us, and that all supercharged, repressed negative emotions from past experiences are resolved.






Personal responsibility. Another vital characteristic of maturity is acting responsibly and appropriately in all situations—neither overreacting nor under-reacting. People overreact when unresolved painful issues from the past are triggered and they react as if they were responding to the original hurt. People under-react when they withdraw from dealing with an issue they need to confront and resolve. Some excuse this behavior as being Christian and not wanting to hurt someone's feelings. Rather, it is basically being weak, afraid, or insecure—not to mention being dishonest.






As John Powell so eloquently said, "We defend our dishonesty on the grounds that it may hurt another person and then, having rationalized our phoniness into nobility, we settle for superficial relationships."






True, "I may have been a victim in the past but if I remain a victim, I am now a willing volunteer." Acting in a mature manner means that I now accept personal responsibility for every area of life. It means that I refuse to play the blame-game. Consistently blaming someone else for the difficulties I have will cause me to B-LAME—emotionally, that is.






When working with divorced people, I have found that so many primarily blame their former partner for the breakdown of their relationship. They fail to see that they, too, contributed to the conflict either by being too weak, too passive, too codependent, too over-dependent, too independent, too needy, too afraid of closeness, or in any of a score of other ways.





On one occasion a friend once said to me, "Are you angry at me because I've been divorced three times?" "Angry, no," I answered, "afraid, yes!" "Well they were all jerks," she responded. So I asked, "Well, why did you marry them?"






The last I heard is that my friend is now in her fifth marriage.






The reality is unless we act responsibly and admit, confront, and resolve our personal issues, we are destined to repeat past failures. It's either resolution or repetition.

随想

还有不到半小时就要上活动去了,心情实在没办法好起来。

曾几何时起,只要知道有活动,我心情一定不好。

要怪只能说当初的我太好骗了,看到他们的热情听他们说的故事,还以为我会在这里过个精彩的中学生涯。

然而实在把事情看得太简单了。

中一,有好多朋友。我们常常聚在一起谈天,有难时互相安慰。那种感觉相极了小说里所谓的互相扶持。

中二,开始有些朋友离开。但仍有人讲话,过得也不错。

中三,跑到七七八八了,只剩下几个。记得我这一年的刚加入时有整80人,到了这年,剩下二十左右吧。然后慢慢的,我开始讨厌来活动。每次都没朋友了,仅剩的几个被分到不同组,休息时才有机会讲话了。

中四,也就今年。现在,连中五的朋友也走了,孤单环绕着我,逃都逃不开。

我忍!

还有一年,就可以不用来了。

一年说短不短,但也不长。

我默默等待解放的日子,但愿熬得住。

考试后

刚刚打完一篇文,竟因系统问题通通不见掉~~

算了,反正又不是什麽开心的事,只是篇发泄文。

才发现昨天的自己真不知感恩,昨天只是一科特别刺激神经。

今天一连三科,才是真真的噩梦。

上学前遇上大雨,父母吵架,熬夜後头痛……

就在这样的情况下,在毛毛雨中我踏上上学的路程

今天一到学校就考会计,十分锺後考生物,一个小时半後考物理。

连个舒缓情绪的时间都没有,就放学了。

………………

…………实在想不出东西写了

…………灵感全写在那片文就从脑中消失了。

而且,一提起考试,什麽事都提不起劲了。

加上明天还有课外活动,想到可能遇上的灾难就特别没劲。

好吧,写出来後,不开心的东西都抛出来了总算好过些。

反正不会有人投诉,又懒惰写下。打在这里,有空时来看看倒挺不错的。

2010年9月2日

唉~~考试阿考试

考试,一向是我的噩梦。

每次考试都吃不好睡不着。

这次的考试,更是差点令人崩溃。

数学,我一直相当有把握。

我真得很努力温习。

而且听说很简单,出题老师我的老师朋友同学都这么讲。

但看到那第一题,整个人忽然昏沉沉的。

天!

这次定死得很难看了。

老天保佑,千千万万别不及格呀!

早知就不上网那么久了

哎,千金难买早知道。

算了,还是好好为明天加油吧!
