尽管历史跌宕起伏，中国因其古代文明一直延续至今而闻名于世。其存续的原因颇多，但主要因素之一是汉字的书写体系。connectthepastand/withthepresent连接过去与现在

ancientcivilisation古代文明

汉字在最初是一种基于图形的语言。它可以追溯到数千年前使用龙骨的时期——古代中国人在这些骨头和壳上面刻画简单的符号。这些符号在今天的汉字中仍可看到。Atthebeginning起初；首先datebackto追溯到apicture-basedlanguage象形文字carvedbyancientChinesepeople由古人所刻ancientsymbols

Dynasty(221-207BCE).

到商朝(约公元前1600年一前1046年)时，这些符号已经演变成一套成熟的书写体系。在随后的年代里，这一体系发展成不同的形式，这是由于当时中国人居住地域的分隔，从而导致不同方言和汉字变体的产生。然而，这在秦朝(公元前221年一前207年)秦始皇统治时期发生了变化。awell-developedwritingsystem一种发达的书写体系manyvarietiesofdialects种类繁多的方言developinto演变成BytheShangDynasty到了商朝EmperorQinshihuangunited

秦始皇统一七个诸侯国后，在这个统一的国家里，汉字开始朝着一个方向发展。这个书写体系对于中国人民与中国文化的统一具有非凡的意义。即使在今天，不论住在哪里，也不论说何种方言，中国人仍然能通过书写(汉字)进行交流。uniteinto将……合并/统一成……begantodevelopinonedirection开始朝着一个方向发展ofgreatimportance非常重要
