Dam

阿斯旺水坝（AswanHighDam）位于埃及开罗以南900公里的尼罗河畔，尼罗河美丽的自然景观，舒适的热带气候，丰富的文物古迹和世界上首屈一指的高坝，使阿斯旺的旅游业特别发达。水坝的建设自1960开始，历时10年，耗资9亿美元，站在111米的阿斯旺水坝上，脚下波涛翻滚的世界第一长河尼罗河被拦腰截断，放眼南望是宽15公里长500多公里的纳赛尔湖，这座世界第二大人工湖吞下尼罗河的全年径流，实现河水多年调节，使1964年的洪水，1972年的干旱，1975年的特大洪峰和1982年以来的持续低水位都化险为夷。在几乎全非洲都在闹饥荒的时候，埃及的粮食基本自给自足。

阿斯旺水坝由主坝、溢洪道和发电站三部分组成。大坝所使用的建筑材料约4300万立方米，其体积相当于开罗西郊胡夫大金字塔的17倍，堪称世界七大水坝之一。阿布辛贝神庙（阿拉伯语：أبوسنبل‎或أبوسمبل‎），位于埃及阿斯旺以南290千米处，建于公元前1300-前1233年，据说名字来源于最早带西方人去到现场的向导（一个小男孩）的名字。它坐落于纳赛尔湖（LakeNasser）西岸，由依崖凿建的牌楼门、巨型拉美西斯二世（RamsesⅡ）摩崖雕像、前后柱厅及神堂等组成。阿布辛贝勒和它下游至菲莱岛的许多遗迹一起作为努比亚遗址，被联合国教科文组织指定为世界遗产。两座神庙于1964年到1968年间成功迁移。TemplesAswanDamIsthereanylinkbetweenthetwopictures?LeadinLookatthepicturesandanswerthefollowingquestions.Q1:Whatarethey?
