韶山导游词（五篇模版）

第一篇：韶山导游词

俗话说得好：“十修得同船渡，百年修得共枕眠”，用现船少了，车多了，所以是“百年修得同车行”，我们今天能坐在同一辆车里，可是百年才修来的缘分啊！能认识大家，我感到十分荣幸。

我谨代表热情好客的700多万长沙人民，**旅行社全体同仁，司机师傅和我本人表示对各位朋友最真挚的欢迎！

那我先自报一下家门，我是大家本次XX之旅的导游，我姓吕名炳锋，吕是双口吕。大家都可以叫我小吕，根据咱们湖南这边的习俗大家可以叫我吕丫子、锋丫子。在我们湖南男的可以叫丫子，女子就叫妹陀。在整个旅途中大家有任何的问题都可以随时找我，只要您叫我一声“小吕”，或者“吕导”，我就会来到您的身边，24小时欢迎您骚扰！但是小吕有个小小的要求：在景区里面如果您有事找我千万别喊我“导游”，因为景区里面的团队非常的多，导游也是千千万万，如果您呼唤一声“导游”，那么回头率是相当高的，就不止小吕我一个人在回头看着您啊。

在我旁边，现在正在专心为我们开车的是xx师傅，xx师傅有着多年的开车经验，定会保证我们的旅途顺顺利利。咱们的司机师傅也是非常的辛苦的，所以请大家在车上一定要注意卫生，把垃圾扔到垃圾箱里面，谢谢大家的理解与支持。

我们现在所处的是湖南的省会长沙市市区，长沙是全国首批历史文化名城，以及全国首批优秀旅游城市。总面积1.18万平方公里,共辖六区两县一市。六区分别是以芙蓉花命名的芙蓉区、以天心阁命名的天心区，以雨花亭命名的雨花区，以开福寺命名的开福区，以岳麓山命名的岳麓区，世纪好人雷锋的故乡望城区，两县是毛主席的妻子杨开慧的故乡长沙县，刘少奇主席的故乡宁乡县，一市是全国花炮之乡浏阳市，对于浏阳花炮相信大家都不会陌生，08年北京奥运会以及12年伦敦奥运会都是用的咱们浏阳的花炮。

咱们长沙呢也叫有别称叫做星城，有的朋友已进入长沙就会收到一条短信，欢迎来到美丽的星城长沙。那为什么长沙又叫做星城呢？有没有朋友知道？有的人开玩笑说，是因为长沙的明星特别多所以叫星城，这个有一定道理，因为长沙是全国的娱乐之都，所以来这里的明星确实是非常的多，说不定大家走在长沙的大街上就可以碰上一个大明星。长沙被叫做星城是因为天上二十八星宿中有一个星星叫做长沙星正好对应咱们长沙的天心阁，古时人们就应星取名长沙，由于长沙来源于星宿之名，也就有了星城之名。长沙可以有趣的概括为”东邪西毒，南帝北丐”，那大家一定纳闷了，金庸小说里人人物怎么跟长沙扯上关系了，难道长沙东南西北各自出了一个大人物？还是我来给大家慢慢解释：长沙地势西高东低，西边是岳麓山，东边是平地，整个地势向东边倾斜。长沙市的发展也以湘江为界，向东倾斜，所以叫东斜；西边，也就是岳麓区，有千年学府岳麓书院，现在是河西大学城，有中南大学，湖南大学，湖南师范大学等著名高等学府，历来就是读书的好地方，所以叫西读。说完东邪西毒，南帝北丐又是什么呢？南帝是因为长沙南城的房地产开发如火如荼，也有说因为湖南的省政府等机关单位都在南边，所以叫南帝；北丐则是一则玩笑话了，长沙北边有很多国企单位，1992年国企改革的时候，大批工人下岗，所以叫北丐。

刚才路上相信大家都看到了橘子洲和咱们湖南的母亲河湘江，这里小吕给大家提个小小的问题？有哪位朋友知道湘江的流向？。。。俗话说大江东去，那为什么湘江是往北流呢，因为咱们湖南的地势是南高北低，湘江由南往北流入洞庭湖，最后注入长江，也由于湖南大部分的地域在洞庭湖以南，就有了湖南之称。

湖南是镶嵌在我国中南大地上一颗璀璨的明珠。湖南历史悠久，地域辽阔。可以说人杰地灵，物华天宝。南邻两广，北接湖北，西连川贵，东攘江西。面积是21.8万平方公里，人口近7000万，居全国第六位。全省有十三个地级市，以及一个湘西土家族苗族自治州，省会是长沙市。湖南又简称“湘”，也有人用“三湘四水”来代表湖南全境。“三湘”是什么？“四水”又是什么呢？关于三湘说法很多，有的说三湘是指潇湘，蒸湘，漓湘，也有的说是指湘潭，湘阴，湘乡，更有趣的说法是三湘指的是湖南三怪，至于四水，是指湘资沅澧，去过张家界凤凰的朋友，从长沙出发就要相继经过这四水。刚刚说到三怪，小吕就为大家解说一下，这第一大怪就是十里不同音？咱们湖南少数民族众多，方言也很多，让人觉得“十里不同音”，才出一个县，甚至一个乡镇，也感觉像出国一样，语言听不懂，这第二怪就是湘西的猪跑的狗快？猪跑的比狗快，这大家肯定觉得不可思议，有句话叫做靠山吃山，我们湘西是完全的山陵地区，所以农村里的猪都是只要稍微长大了点就会直接放养的山上，由于山上以前有一些小型野兽，猪在生存的本能下逃跑，日积月累也就锻炼了一身逃跑的好本领。第三怪这第二大怪是“嘴里嚼个木头块”，大家会问，这木头块是什么啊? 这木头块就是我们湖南本土的口香糖和兴奋剂，也就是“槟榔”。湖南人有事没事都喜欢嘴里嚼个槟榔，见面时来根香烟或者递颗槟榔是湖南人的见面礼仪。槟榔原产地是在海南,可是全国最大的加工生产销售地却是在湖南湘潭。湖南人吃的槟榔是经过腌制过的，吃一颗槟榔可以提神。司机师傅开车开累，嚼颗槟榔可以提神醒脑。但小吕要提醒各位嘉宾的是，您如果是第一次吃槟榔，可千万要注意咯，别第一次就找个很大的放进嘴里就嚼，这样不到几分钟，您就会感觉到心跳加快，头晕目眩，像喝醉酒一样，这称之为“醉槟榔”。所以您第一次吃槟榔是，先切一小片慢慢嚼，适应了再嚼大的。

那之前小吕我说过，湖南是人杰地灵的湖南，尤其是到了近代，湖南人才辈出。中国的历史学家们有一句话说是“中国的近代史是一部由湖南人书写的近代史”。

大家肯定会问了，导游你不是在吹牛吧！那当然不是吹牛咯，而是其它省份对湖南中肯的评价。

2000多年前，伟大的诗人屈原在湖南留下了《离骚》、《九歌》、《天问》等不朽诗篇。中国古代有四大发明，指南针，火药，造纸术，活字印刷术。造纸术就是湖南耒阳人蔡伦发明的。湖南还有名闻天下的岳麓书院,江南四楼的岳阳楼。另外,明末清初大哲学家船山先生---王夫之，也是湖南人。在中国近现代史上，湖南涌现了一大批杰出政治家，如提出师夷长技以制夷，被称为“近代睁眼看世界第一人”的魏源；清朝晚期的中兴名臣，湘军的创建着曾国藩；60多岁抬着棺材进新疆，收复天山南北广大地区的名族英雄左宗棠；我自横刀向天笑，去留肝胆两昆仑，被“戊戌六君子”之首的谭嗣同；辛亥革命时期的湖南三杰黄兴、宋教仁、蔡锷等。在国民党政府时期,湖南人也是人才辈出，蒋介石组建的48个军中，16个军长是湖南人，著名的“黄埔三杰(陈赓、蒋先云、贺衷寒)”，全部是湖南人。新中国历史上也有一大批领袖,比如一代伟人毛泽东、刘少奇主席、谁干横刀立马，为我彭大将----彭德怀元帅，两把菜刀闹革命的贺龙元帅，还有后来的胡耀邦主席、朱镕基总理等。湖南人除了有卓越的政治才能，更出名的是能征善战，有“无湘不成军”的说法。1955年中国人民解放军首次授衔时，十大元帅湖南有3位(彭德怀，贺龙，罗荣桓)，10大将军湖南有6位（粟裕，陈赓，肖劲光，谭政，许光达，黄克诚），57位上将湖南有19位，100多位中将，湖南不是特别多,只有45位。那至于少将以及将军一下的军官则是不计其数，可以说将星闪耀。甚至远在台湾，一些政治派别的领导人像亲民党主席宋楚渝、国民党主席马英

九、等都是湖南人，其中曾任台湾亲民党主席的宋楚渝先生还跟毛主席是老乡咧，2006年5月9日他曾专程回湘潭老家祭祖。

那有人就说，湖南人是能武不能文。其实并非如此。湖南还涌现了一大批文学、艺术、教育、科技优秀人才，灿若星河，数不胜数,大家熟悉的就有如湘西凤凰古城的大文学家沈从文，大画家黄永玉、毛主席的老乡以画虾名震天下的画坛宗师齐百石、“杂交水稻之父”袁隆平等。前面马上就要到花明楼了，有句话叫花明楼无楼滴水洞无洞，花明楼不是一栋楼，而是一个地名，取自山重水复疑无路，柳暗花明又一村，那我们到花明楼看什么呢？今天我们就主要看三个景点，刘少奇铜像广场，刘少奇文物馆，刘少奇故居。

我们接下来就要前往我们伟大领袖毛主席额的故乡韶山。“韶”是上古时期一种音乐的名字。传说舜帝当年南巡到韶山，见此风景宜人，心情十分愉快。便令随从奏起了韶乐，这一奏，只见百鸟欢跃，附近的飞禽走兽都闻声而起，欢歌起舞。后来人们便根据舜帝用韶乐引来百鸟的故事，把舜帝建行宫赏韶乐的地方叫韶山。韶山的韶拆开就是音召二字，音是音乐的音，召是召唤的召。正是取这个意思啦。几千年后，中国历史上又一位著名乾隆皇帝南巡至此，曾预言说，韶山是块风水宝地，500年内必出真命天子，此人的姓必是“反手掌乾坤”。果然不出所料，1893，诞生了我们的一代伟人毛泽东，同时也正巧验证了乾隆的话。大家可以试着写一下，把手掌的“手”字最后一笔反过来是什么字，反手掌乾坤就是毛字。

毛主席的母亲文氏是湘乡人，文氏在家中排行老七，别人都叫她文七妹。因为文氏家的祖坟在韶山，为了清明节上坟的时候有个落脚的地方，文氏的父亲就将文七妹嫁到韶山，嫁给了毛主席的父亲毛顺生。文氏比毛顺生大三岁，俗话说：“女大三，抱金砖”，也就是在取了文七妹以后毛顺生家里的生活渐渐好了起来。在1893年12月26日早上7点到9点之间，一代伟人诞生在上屋场的茅草屋里。按照《韶山毛氏族谱》规定的备份，毛泽东属泽字辈。毛顺生为了纪念毛家祖居地，也为了纪念主席出生的时辰，辰时是太阳升起的时候，太阳是从东边升起的，所以起名为毛泽东。毛顺生之前两个孩子，但都夭折了，所以家里十分看重毛主席。毛主席从小接到外婆家，在外婆家的山后有一块非常像人形的巨石，人们称为石观音，他外婆便把他带到石观音面前，拜为干娘，以保佑他茁壮成长，因此毛主席还有一个称呼叫做石三伢子。毛主席的母亲一生十分善良、节俭。对毛泽东影响相当大。1919年10月5日，毛泽东母亲病故，他日夜兼程，从长沙赶回韶山。他守在母亲灵前，在悲痛中，席地而坐，写出了一篇哀恸的《祭母文》。高度赞扬了母亲敦厚诚实，勤劳俭朴的美德。当时，毛泽东还含泪给他的同学、好友邹蕴真写信，说世界共有三种人：损人利己的人；利己不损人的；可以损己以利人的，自己的母亲便属于第三种人。可以说毛泽东对自己的母亲是非常尊重和孝顺的。

毛泽东的父亲毛顺生(1870—1920年)是个很精明的生意人，小时候因为家庭负债过多，16岁时外出当兵，退伍后回到韶山在家务农兼做小生意和别的营生，攒积下一点钱，开始做贩谷子的生意，在当地是一个小小的财主。

毛顺生勤劳倔强，精明干炼，脾气粗暴，对毛泽东管的很严厉，时而打骂训斥，并训练儿子双手打算盘，熟悉田间劳动，期望儿子能继承家业，学会经商。俗话说“有其父，必有其子”，受父亲性格的影响，毛泽东性格也很倔强。从小反抗父亲的打骂、体罚和专横。比如，他父亲骂他“不孝”，他就引用经书上“父慈子孝”，也就是只有“父慈”，才能“子孝”的话来回敬；他父亲指责他“懒惰”，他就说大人应该比小孩多干活，等我到了你那年纪，定会比你干的活更多。毛泽东从慈母那里继承了善良、敦厚的天性，从严父那里接受了倔强的个性，不同的气质，在毛泽东的身上重叠组合，成了他性格的最初雏形。

毛泽东6岁开始做一些家务和农活，目睹和经历了旧社会农民的疾苦、穷困、和潦倒。

毛泽东8岁开始读私塾，在韶山6年私塾，13岁至15岁，毛泽东停学在家。除白天参加繁重的体力劳动，晚上帮助父亲记账外，还坚持自学，经常在小油灯下读书至深夜。

毛泽东16岁的时候，父亲打算送他去湘潭县城一家米店当学徒，以便继承家业，发家致富。但是，毛泽东并没有走上父亲所安排的生活道路，而是走上了一条寻找救国救民改造社会的道路。

1910年（17岁）秋，毛泽东第一次离开家乡韶山，去湘乡/县立/东山高等小学读书。临行前，他写了一首诗赠给他父亲。诗云： 孩儿立志出乡关，学不成名誓不还。埋头何须桑梓地，人生无处不青山。

毛泽东把改写好的诗，夹在他父亲的账簿里，走出乡关求学，从此离开了束缚身心的家庭和闭塞的韶山冲，这可说是毛泽东人生历程的第一个转折。也由此走上了革命的道路。

毛泽东五次回韶山：1921年、1925年、1927年、1959年、1966年。（1966年9月18日）

28岁·一回韶山

教育全家闹革命

1921年农历岁首，毛泽东的父母相继去世不久，未能为父母临终送别的毛泽东从长沙回到韶山。这次回乡，他把毛泽民、毛泽覃、毛泽建和弟媳王淑兰带上了革命的道路。

32岁·二回韶山

亲建韶山党支部

1925年2月中旬，毛泽东再次回到韶山播种革命火种，建立中共韶山党支部，从此韶山掀起了轰轰烈烈的农民革命运动。

34岁·三回韶山

考察农民运动

1927年1月7日，毛泽东第三次回到了韶山考察。此时的韶山已拥有党员230多人，农民运动已成洪流迅猛向前发展，进入一个崭新阶段。

66岁·四回韶山

走村串户搞调研

1959年6月25日，毛泽东在建国后首次以主席的身份回到阔别32年的韶山调研。当日，当地3000多名干部群众获知消息后从四面八方涌进韶山冲欢迎毛主席。毛泽东走到哪里，哪里就是一片欢腾。夜深人静后，毛泽东伏案写下了《七律·到韶山》。

73岁·五回韶山

深居“西方山洞”

1966年6月，“文化大革命”进行得如火如荼，毛泽东第五次回到了韶山，在“西方的一个山洞”———韶山滴水洞的别墅里住了11天。毛泽东此行高度保密，知道真实情况的仅周恩来总理一人，他每天派专机从北京为毛泽东送来文件，又带回批阅过的文件。

第六次回韶山：1993年纪念毛主席诞辰100周年，中央决定在韶山立一个毛主席铜像。毛主席铜像由南京晨光制造厂制造，由我国为著名雕刻家刘开梁偕高徒程允贤先生雕刻，历时120天。毛主席铜像于1993年12月6日从江苏南京启运，一路经江苏、安徽、湖北、江西进入湖南。当运载毛主席铜像的汽车队开到江西井岗山的时候，突然汽车熄火了。师傅们反复检修也没查出什么问题。这时一位70多岁的江西老表说：“井岗山是毛主席最早走出深山，拿起枪杆子闹革命的地方，他老人家想在这儿住一晚看一看。”到了第二天，车子没有经过任何检修，奇迹般地可以开动了。在江西与湖南交界处的一个“人”字型山坡上，天正下着瓢泼大雨，进井岗山的路很滑，一百多辆车子都受到了不同程度的损伤，有的根本走不动，只有运载铜像的车子很顺利，安然无恙地开过了井岗山。当有记者问起司机时，司机说：“我想是得到毛主席的保佑了。”所以现在很多的司机都有在车子前面挂一个毛主席小像章，以求一路平安。

关于毛主席铜像还出了一连串的奇事怪事，不知大家从新闻媒介中知道了多少。在此，小张就给大家说说吧！毛主席铜像揭幕仪式于1993年12月26日毛主席诞辰100周年之际正式举行。***主席亲自从北京赶到韶山为毛主席铜像揭彩。当天艳阳高照万里无云，但奇怪的是，上午10:30左右，月亮也出来了。铜像的左边是太阳，右边是月亮，太阳与月亮相互照映，照得整片天空通亮。于是形成了千载难逢、非常罕见的天文奇观――日月同辉。当时正值12月份，而满山的杜鹃花顿时也全部盛开了，以毛主席故居山后的开得最艳。大家都知道，杜鹃花一般是在每年的三至四月份期间开放，而这次则是在寒冬腊月之际，比以往的开花季节提前了几个月。难道不能说是一件有违自然规律的事情？那时舜帝南巡、乾隆预言，这些都只是传说，没有任何历史根据、凭证。而日月同辉与杜鹃花开，是人们亲眼所见，同时还有当时摄下的盛况。于是人们说：毛主席太伟大了，他能使天随人意变、花伴天意开。毛主席真神，他的光辉名字和丰功伟业将与日月同辉、与天地共存！待会儿，我们到了韶山就可以看到日月同辉和杜鹃花开的相片和实况录相。

有的朋友可能就不耐烦了，导游你讲了那么多，那我们到韶山来到底干嘛来了，这里小吕告诉大家我们来韶山就是看主席，请主席，拜主席。看主席故居和纪念馆，请主席铜像，这里小吕就有义务提醒大家，在韶山毛主席铜像最珍贵的是由国家中央档案局批准、发行的编号从0001到9999的小铜像，为什么只发行9999而不是9998或10000尊呢？因为毛主席一生与9特别有缘。大家不妨跟小x一起回忆一下，在1949年9月9日率领解放军攻入了北京；1976年9月9日，是毛主席逝世的日子。那么还有一个9字呢，则是九五之尊的意思了，也象征着毛主席的地位是不可动摇不可替代的。毛主席铜像一经发行，第一号0001号及最后一号9999号就马上被毛主席的媳妇少华和当时的国家主席江泽民请去了。因为0001表示起点，毛主席出生在韶山，出生在湖南，第0001号小铜像当然要留在湖南了。现在少华将0001号主席铜像捐赠给了省博物馆保存了。而9999表示九五之尊，理所当然只有当时的主席才能拥有了。以前江总书记办公桌上摆着一尊毛主席小铜像，那就是第9999号小铜像了。拜主席就是去铜像广场拜主席铜像。

第二篇：韶山导游词

韶山导游词

好了，现在请大家注意一下，我们马上就要进入韶山了。大家看，前面有一幅对联，左联：为有牺牲多壮志，右联：敢叫日月换新天。大家都知道中国有四大火炉：长沙、南京、武汉、重庆。那么除了四大火炉外，最热的地方是哪儿呢？对，韶山！因为韶山是红太阳升起的地方嘛。

韶山旅游区位于湘潭市、韶山市。1994年被国务院确定为国家级风景名胜区。总面积214平方公里，人口9.8万，姓毛的人家占70%。韶山的整个地势是由西北向东南逐渐倾斜的，东部为丘陵和较为开阔的地带，西部山峰环绕，由于长年的封山育林，峰峦一片葱郁。韶山最高峰韶峰是南岳衡山的第71峰，第72峰是岳麓峰。韶山是一块风水宝地，关于它的传说都是美丽的。传说当年舜帝南巡，来到了湖南，来到了韶山，见此风景宜人，心情十分愉快。便令随从奏起了韶乐（当时的一种宫庭音乐），这一奏，忽然一瞬间，只见百鸟欢跃，附近的飞禽走兽都闻声而起，欢歌起舞。由于附近全是山林地带，后来人们便根据舜帝用韶乐引来百鸟的故事，这地方叫做韶山。韶山的韶拆开就是音召，正是取这个意思啦。以韶字命名的还有韶山冲、韶峰、韶河等。韶山的传说很多，除此之外，还有关乾隆的。据说，清朝乾隆曾断言，他说韶山是块风水宝地，500年内必出真命天子，此人的姓必是“反手掌乾坤”。果然不出所料，1893，诞生了我们的一代伟人毛泽东，同时也正巧验证了乾隆的话。大家可以试着写一下，把手掌的“手”字最后一笔反过来是什么字，反手掌乾坤就是毛字。

毛主席的母亲文氏是湘乡人，文氏在家中排行老七，别人都叫她文七妹。因为文氏家的祖坟在韶山，为了清明节上坟的时候有个落脚的地方，文氏的父亲就将文七妹嫁到韶山，嫁给了毛主席的父亲毛顺生。文氏比毛顺生大三岁，俗话说：“女大三，抱金砖”，在当地毛顺生家里条件还算是可以的。在文氏生下毛泽东的前一天晚上，毛顺生做了一个奇怪的梦，梦见一条飞龙翘首东望，迟迟不肯离去。在1893年12月26日一个漆黑的夜晚，电闪雷鸣，狂风大作，一代伟人诞生了。毛泽东从小接到外婆家，在外婆家的山后有一块非常像人形的巨石，人们称为石观音，他外婆便把他带到石观音面前，拜为干娘，以保佑他茁壮成长，石儿伢子由此而来了。

好了，待会儿，我们要参观的一个景点，就是毛主席铜像广场。毛主席铜像高10.1米，重3.7吨。10.1米意味着10月1号，中华人民共和国成立的日子。所以毛主席铜像是取自于开国大典上的一个形象，主席手执发言稿、身穿中山装、面带微笑。韶山冲的冲意就是山谷中的一块平地，那么毛主席铜像广场就处于韶山冲这块平地的中心部位。毛主席铜像由南京晨光制造厂制造，由我国为著名雕刻家刘开梁和程允贤先生雕刻，历时120天。毛主席铜像于1993年12月6日从南京启运，一路经江苏、安徽、湖北、江西进入湖南。当运载毛主席铜像的汽车队开到江西井岗山的时候，突然汽车熄火了。司机们反复检修也没查出什么问题。这时一位70多岁的老表说：“井岗山是毛主席最早走出深山，拿起枪杆子闹革命的地方，他老人家想在这儿住一晚看一看。”到了第二天，车子没有经过任何检修，奇迹般地可以开动了。在江西与湖南交界处的一个“人”字型山坡上，天正下着瓢泼大雨，进井岗山的路很滑，一百多辆车子都受到了不同程度的损伤，有的根本走不动，只有运载铜像的车子很顺利，安然无恙地开过了井岗山。当有记者问起司机时，司机说：“我想是得到毛主席的保佑了。”所以现在很多的司机都有在车子前面挂一个毛主席小像章，以求一路平安。

Good morning, Ladies and Gentlemen!

Today, we will go and visit Shaoshan, the hometown of Chairman Mao.Shaoshan is a small mountain village about 100km southwest of Changsha, the capital of Hunan province, with some fairly beautiful scenery and a once typically Hunan village atmosphere, Shaoshan has been irreparably changed by history.On the 26th December 1893, a baby was born in a little house in this village, to a relatively wealthy peasant couple.The child was to grow up to become China's Great Helmsman, Chairman Mao Zedong, and it was in this region that he spent his childhood and youth, attending school and helping his father with his work.As the hometown of the great man of the generation, now Shaoshan is one of the important tourist zones in Hunan province.The major tourist sites including the Former residence of Chairman Mao, Memorial Hall of Mao Zedong, Water-dripping Cave and Steles Forest of Mao's Poems，and so on.The former residence of Chairman Mao is the most interesting site.Entered through a courtyard, the house is of a sunny yellow, mud brick walls, with a nicely thatched roof, and is found on a wooded hillside, above some lush paddy fields.There are 13 and one half rooms in the Former residence, which include one and half central room, a kitchen, a dining room, three family bedrooms and a guest room.Within the rooms are various personal effects of Mao and his parents, as well as photos from Mao's life.This is the central room, used by two families: Mao's family and their neighbor.So we said that there is only one half of the central room belongs to Mao's family.And this is there kitchen, where Chairman Mao often helped his mother doing some housework in his childhood.Go through the kitchen was Chairman Mao's parent's bedroom, there are two photos of Chairman Mao's parents on the inner wall, and it was in this room where Chairman Mao was born.The Dripping Water Cave, about 3 km northwest of the village, is a very popular destination, possibly because of the fact that Mao allegedly spent 11 days here in the early days of the Cultural Revolution Years(1966-76), contemplating the unknown.湖南韶山-毛泽东故居英文导游词

[字体：增大 缩小] Shaoshan(Hometown of Mao)

Shaoshan，a mountain village about 100km southwest of Changsha，with some fairly beautiful scenery and a once typically Hunan village atmosphere，has been irreparably changed by history.On the 26th December 1893，a baby was born in a little house in this village，to a relatively wealthy peasant couple.The child was to grow up to become China’s Great Helmsman，Chairman Mao Zedong，and it was in this region that he spent his childhood and youth，attending school and helping his father with his work.The tourist attractions in the village are highly propagandorial，but then this is all part and parcel of the Mao image.Loudspeakers will great you on arrival with revolutionary songs and speeches，the village is guarded by sleepily bored soldiers and the history is only partially represented at best.The revolutionary tourist attractions include the Former Residence of Mao Zedong(Mao zedong guju)，the Ancestral Temple of the Mao Family，now Comrade Mao’s Museum(Mao zedong tongzhi jinianguan)，Stone Steles covered with Mao’s poems，and a Revolutionary Martyr’s Cemetery.The former residence is the most interesting.Entered through a courtyard，the house is of a sunny yellow，mud brick walls，with a nicely thatched roof，and is found on a wooded hillside，above some lush paddy fields.You can visit all of the 13 rooms inside，that include a kitchen，a dining room，three family bedrooms，a guest room and an ancestral hall.Within the rooms are various personal effects of Mao and his parents，as well as photos from Mao’s life.If the propaganda gets too much，the area around the village is of the beautifully simple Hunan countryside，with small peasant houses scattered about the stepped paddyfields and bamboo groves.The Dripping Water Cave(Dishui dong)，about 3km northwest of the village，is a very popular destination，possibly because of the fact that Mao allegedly spent 11 days here in the early days of the Cultural Revolution Years(1966-76)，contemplating the unknown.Even nicer however，is the ascent to Shao Hill Peak(Shaoshan feng)，the conical hill just to the northwest of the village.From the summit(reached on foot [1-2hrs.] or by cable car [RMB20])，you will have some good views over the village and Hunanese countryside.Mao Zedong(help·info)(December 26, 1893 – September 9, 1976;Mao Tse-tung in Wade-Giles)was the chairman of the Politburo of the Communist Party of China from 1943 and the chairman of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China from 1945 until his death in 1976.Under his leadership, the Chinese Communist Party(CCP)became the ruling party of Mainland China after victory over Chinese Nationalists, the Kuomintang, in the Chinese Civil War.On October 1, 1949, Mao declared the formation of the People's Republic of China at Tiananmen Square.From the 1950s until his death, Mao initiated various economic and political

campaigns, such as the Anti-Rightist Campaign, the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, which resulted in the deaths of tens of millions of people.His knowledge of these deaths is disputed.Introduction

Mao created a mostly unified China free of foreign domination for the first time since the Opium Wars.With Zhu De, Mao co-founded the People's Liberation Army as the Red Army on August 1, 1927 after Chiang Kai-Shek began leading a series of purges against the communists.After gaining power, Mao initiated a transformation of the economic and social system through a process of collectivisation culminating in The Great Leap Forward of 1958-62, which has subsequently been recognised as an economic disaster for China.The changes in social and agricultural policies which he ordered during this period, known in China as Three Years of Natural Disasters, caused the massive famine of 1959–1961.Mao created a totalitarian one-party-state, contributed to the Sino-Soviet Split, and initiated the Cultural Revolution, which purged, tortured, and publicly humiliated millions.These millions included many of those fellow Communists who had forced Mao to end the policies that contributed to the famine of 1959–1961.During the Cultural Revolution, Mao encouraged the wholesale destruction of a large part of China's cultural heritage.Mao Zedong is sometimes referred to as Chairman Mao in the West and in China simply as the Chairman.At the height of his personality cult, Mao was commonly known in China as the “Four Greats”: “Great Teacher, Great Leader, Great Supreme Commander, Great Helmsman”.Mao was an avid reader, particularly of Chinese history and it has been argued that his skill at outmaneuvering his political opponents as well as his belief in the overriding importance of unifying and revolutionizing China, regardless of the sacrifices imposed on his people, owed much to his understanding of Chinese imperial history.His political writings were influential in the development of Marxist thought and he also wrote poetry which retains some popularity in China.Chairman Mao

Mao Zedong(December 26, 1893 – September 9, 1976)(also Mao Tse-Tung in Wade-Giles transliteration)was a Chinese Marxist theorist, soldier, poet, and statesman who led China's communist revolution after decades of foreign occupation and civil war in the 20th century.Following the Communist Party of China’s military victory over the Kuomintang in the Chinese Civil War, Mao announced the establishment of the People’s Republic of China on October 1, 1949, in the culturally-significant Tiananmen Square in Beijing.Mao pursued the ideal of strong and prosperous China, endeavoring to build a modern, industrialized nation.However, the disastrous results of Mao's most significant socio-political programs—including the Anti-Rightist Campaign, the Great Leap Forward, and the Cultural Revolution—crippled China's development, leading to economic hardship, social turmoil and widespread starvation.This led to the deaths of tens of millions of Chinese people.Until his death, Mao maintained control of the Politburo of the Communist Party of China and the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China through both political acumen and a cult of personality, the latter resulting in such sobriquets as Grand Helmsman and Saviour of China.Early Life The eldest child of a moderate family, Mao Zedong was born on December 26, 1893, in a village called Shaoshan in Xiangtan county(湘潭縣), Hunan province, and thus spoke Xiang rather than Mandarin.His ancestors had migrated from Jiangxi province during the Ming Dynasty, married indigenous women, and had settled there as farmers for generations.During the 1911 Revolution, Mao served for months in a local regiment in Hunan.However, having felt unaccustomed to a life of military service, he returned to school in Changsha, where he realized the importance of both health and knowledge.Having graduated from the First Provincial Normal School of Hunan in 1918, Mao traveled with Professor Yang Changji, his high school teacher, also his future father-in-law, to Beijing during the May Fourth Movement in 1919.Professor Yang held a faculty position at National Peking University.Because of Yang's recommendation, Mao worked as an assistant librarian at the University with Li Dazhao as curator of the library.At the same time, Mao registered as a part-time student at Beijing University and audited many lectures and seminars by some famous intellectuals, such as Chen Duxiu, Hu Shi, and Qian Xuantong, etc.Over his stay in Beijing, he read as much as possible, which introduced him for the first time to Communist theories.In the meantime, he married Yang Kaihui, Professor Yang Changji's daughter and also his fellow student, despite an existing marriage arranged by his father at home.Mao had never acknowledged this marriage.Later, Mao turned down an opportunity to study in France because of poverty.Later he claimed that it was because he firmly believed that China's problems could be studied and resolved only within China.As distinct from his contemporaries, Mao

went the opposite direction, studying the peasant majority of China's population where he began his life as a professional revolutionist.On July 23, 1921, Mao, at the age of 27, attended the first session of the National Congress of the Communist Party of China in Shanghai.Two years later, he was elected one of the five commissars of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China during the third session of the Congress.Mao stayed for a while in Shanghai, an important city that the CPC emphasised for the Revolution.But after the Party had encountered major difficulties in organizing labor union movements, and relations with its nationalist ally, the Kuomintang had become poor, Mao was disillusioned at the revolution there and moved back to his home village of Shaoshan.During his stay at home, Mao rekindled his interest in the revolution, having been informed of the 1925 uprisings in Shanghai and Guangzhou.He then went to Guangdong, the base of the Kuomintang, as a return of his political ambitions.During his stay there, Mao took part in the preparations for the second session of the National Congress of Kuomintang.In early 1927, Mao returned to Hunan where, in an urgent meeting held by the Communist Party of China, he made a report based upon his investigations and study of the recent peasant uprisings in the wake of the Northern Expedition.This report is considered the initial and decisive step toward the successful application of Mao's revolutionary theories in China.Political Ideas It was in Beijing, before he was married to Yang Kaihui, that Mao was introduced to Marxism.“There were three books that left great impressions on my mind”, Mao recollected, “They helped build up my solid faith in Marxism”.Among the three important books was Manifesto of the Communist Party.Nevertheless, it was a gradual process for Mao to become a Marxist.During 1920 in Hunan, Mao contributed several essays to the newspapers advocating the autonomy of Hunan Province as he firmly believed that the provincial autonomy was a prelude to the success of local prosperity, which, in turn, would add to the existence of a stronger and more prosperous China in the world.In 1920, Mao had developed his theory of violent revolution, which he adopted from the experience of the Russian revolutions, and which could probably be attributed to his early reading experience of Outlaws of the Marsh, one of the four masterpieces of Chinese ancient literature.Mao's theory of violent revolution seeks to subvert the alliance of imperialism and feudalism in China.As a rather strategic communist, Mao had not ignored those Chinese nationalists, who he thought to be both economically

and politically vulnerable.Mao concluded that the violent revolution he favored could by no means be steered by the nationalists.And that such violent revolution should be conducted by the proletariat with the help from the Chinese nationalists, and certainly under the supervision of a communist party.In the 1920s, Mao helped to conduct many labor struggles based upon his study, propagation, and organization of the contemporary labor movements.However, these struggles were subdued by the government.And Mao fled Changsha after he was labeled radical activist there.Later, Mao recollected the failures over which he pondered seriously and carefully.Mao finally realized that Chinese labor workers were not able to lead the revolution because they made up just a relatively small portion of China's population, and that unarmed labor struggles could not resolve the problems.Mao began to depend on Chinese peasants who later became staunch supporters of his theory of violent revolution, which eventually distinguished Mao from all his predecessors and contemporaries.Mao himself was from a peasant family and with his natural relationship with the farmers and peasants at home, he developed his reputation among them.And most importantly, he introduced them to marxism, certainly with his own adjustments and modifications.War and Revolution In 1927 Mao conducted the famous Autumn Harvest Uprising in Changsha, Hunan, as commander-in-chief.The army led by Mao, entitled Revolutionary Army of Workers and Peasants, was defeated and scattered after some fierce battles.Afterwards the exhausted troops were forced to leave Hunan for Sanwan, Jiangxi, where Mao re-organized the scattered soldiers, rearranging them from a military division into a smaller regiment.And Mao ordered that each company must have a party branch office with a commissar as its leader who would give political instructions based upon superior mandates.This military rearrangement in Sanwan, Jiangxi initiated the CPC's absolute control over its military force and has been considered to have the most fundamental and profound impact upon the Chinese revolution.Later on, they moved to Jinggang Mountains, Jiangxi.On the Jinggang mountains, Mao persuaded two local

insurgent leaders who pledged their allegiance to him.And there Mao rejoined his army with that of Zhu De.Thus he created the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army of China, Red Army in short.(the Fourth Front of Workers' and Peasants' Red Army of China).From 1931 to 1934, Mao helped establish the Soviet Republic of China and was elected Chairman of this small republic among the mountainous areas in Jiangxi.Here, Mao was married to He Zizhen.His wife Yang Kaihui, who

sacrificed for the revolution, had been arrested and executed in 1930, just three years after their departure.In Jiangxi, Mao's authoritative domination, especially that of the military force was challenged by the Jiangxi branch of the CPC and military officers.Mao's opponents, among whom the most prominent was Li Wenlin, the founder of the CPC's branch and Red Army in Jiangxi, were against Mao's land policies and proposals to reform the local party branch and army leadership.Mao reacted first by accusing the opponents of opportunism and kulakism and then set off a series of systematic suppressions of them.Later the suppressions were turned into bloody physical elimination.The estimated number of the victims amounted to several thousands.Through the so-called revolutionary terrorism, or red terrorism, Mao's authority and domination in Jiangxi was secured and reassured.However, this had left unforgettable scars on Mao's mind.Mao, with the help of Zhu De, built a modest but effective army, undertook experiments in rural reform and government, and provided refuge for Communists fleeing the rightist purges in the cities.Mao's methods are normally referred to as Guerrilla warfare;but he himself made a distinction between guerrilla warfare(youji zhan)and Mobile Warfare(yundong zhan).Mao's Guerrilla Warfare and Mobile Warfare was based upon the fact of the poor armament and military training of the red army which consisted mainly of impoverished peasants, who, however, were all encouraged by revolutionary passions and aspiring after a communist utopia.Around 1930, there had been more than ten regions, usually entitled “soviet areas”, under control of the CPC.And the number of Red Army soldiers ran to no less than a hundred thousand.The prosperity of “soviet areas” startled and worried Chiang Kai-shek, chairman of the Kuomintang government, who waged five waves of besieging campaigns against the “central soviet area”.More than one million Kuomintang soldiers were involved in these five campaigns, four out of which were defeated by the red army led by Mao.Under increasing pressures from the KMT encirclement campaigns, there was a struggle for power within the Communist leadership.Mao was removed from his important positions and replaced by individuals(including Zhou Enlai)who appeared loyal to the orthodox line advocated by Moscow and represented within the CPC by a group known as the 28 Bolsheviks.Chiang Kai-shek, who had earlier assumed nominal control of China due in part to the Northern Expedition, was determined to eliminate the Communists.By October 1934, he had them surrounded, prompting them to engage in the “Long March,” a retreat from Jiangxi in the southeast to Shaanxi in the northwest of China.It was during this

9,600 kilometer(5,965 mile), year-long journey that Mao emerged as the top Communist leader, aided by the Zunyi Conference and the defection of Zhou Enlai to Mao's side.At this Conference, Mao entered the Standing Committee of the Politburo of the Communist Party of China.From his base in Yan'an, Mao led the Communist resistance against the Japanese in the Second Sino-Japanese War(1937-1945).Mao further consolidated power over the Communist Party in 1942 by launching the Cheng Feng, or “Rectification” campaign against rival CPC members such as Wang Ming, Wang Shiwei, and Ding Ling.Also while in Yan'an, Mao divorced He Zizhen and married the actress Lan Ping, who would become known as Jiang Qing.During the Sino-Japanese War, Mao Zedong's strategies were opposed by both Chiang Kai-shek and the United States.The US regarded Chiang as an important ally, able to help shorten the war by engaging the Japanese occupiers in China.Chiang, in contrast, sought to build the ROC army for the certain conflict with Mao's communist forces after the end of World War II.This fact was not understood well in the US, and precious lend-lease armaments continued to be allocated to the Kuomintang.In turn, Mao spent part of the war(as to whether it was most or only a little is disputed)fighting the Kuomintang for control of certain parts of China.Both the Communists and Nationalists have been criticised for fighting amongst themselves rather than allying against the Japanese Imperial Army.In 1944, the Americans sent a special diplomatic envoy, called the Dixie Mission, to the Communist Party of China.According to Edwin Moise, in Modern China: A History 2nd Edition:

Most of the Americans were favourably impressed.The CPC seemed less corrupt, more unified, and more vigorous in its resistance to Japan than the Guomindang.United States fliers shot down over North China...confirmed to their superiors that the CPC was both strong and popular over a broad area.In the end, the contacts with the USA developed with the CPC led to very little.Then again, modern commentators have refuted such claims.Amongst others, Willy Lam stated that during the war with Japan:

The great majority of casualties sustained by Chinese soldiers were borne by KMT, not Communist divisions.Mao and other guerrilla leaders decided at the time to conserve their strength for the “larger struggle” of taking over all of China once the Japanese Imperial Army was decimated by the U.S.-led Allied Forces.After the end of World War II, the US continued to support Chiang Kai-shek, now

openly against the Communist Red Army(led by Mao Zedong)in the civil war for control of China.The US support was part of its view to contain and defeat “world communism.” Likewise, the Soviet Union gave quasi-covert support to Mao(acting as a concerned neighbor more than a military ally, to avoid open conflict with the US)and gave large supplies of arms to the Communist Party of China, although newer Chinese records indicate the Soviet “supplies” were not as large as previously believed, and consistently fell short of the promised amount of aid.On January 21 1949, Kuomintang forces suffered massive losses against Mao's Red Army.In the early morning of December 10 1949, Red Army troops laid siege to Chengdu, the last KMT-occupied city in mainland China, and Chiang Kai-shek evacuated from the mainland to Taiwan(Formosa)that same day.Leadership of China The People's Republic of China was established on October 1, 1949.It was the culmination of over two decades of civil and international war.From 1954 to 1959, Mao was the Chairman of the PRC.During this period, Mao was called Chairman Mao(毛主席)or the Great Leader Chairman Mao(伟大领袖毛主席).The Communist Party assumed control of all media in the country and used it to promote the image of Mao and the Party.The Nationalists under General Chiang Kai-Shek were vilified as were countries such as the United States of America and Japan.The Chinese people were exhorted to devote themselves to build and strengthen their country.In his speech declaring the foundation of the PRC, Mao announced: “The Chinese people have stood up!”

Almost every Chinese had a book called the Quotations From Chairman Mao Tse-Tung(《毛主席语录》)，which was regarded as a source of infallible truth in discussions or arguments at schools or the workplace.He took up residence in Zhongnanhai, a compound next to the Forbidden City in Beijing, and there he ordered the construction of an indoor swimming pool and other buildings.Mao often did his work either in bed or by the side of the pool, preferring not to wear formal clothes unless absolutely necessary, according to Dr.Li Zhisui, his personal physician.(Li's book, The Private Life of Chairman Mao, is regarded as controversial especially by those sympathetic to Mao.)

Following the consolidation of power, Mao launched a phase of rapid collectivization, lasting until around 1958.The CPC introduced price controls as well as a Chinese character simplification aimed at increasing literacy.Land was taken from landlords and more wealthy peasants and given to poorer peasants.Large scale industrialization projects were also undertaken.Programs pursued during this time include the Hundred Flowers Campaign, in which Mao indicated his supposed willingness to consider different opinions about how

China should be governed.Given the freedom to express themselves, liberal and intellectual Chinese began opposing the Communist Party and questioning its leadership.This was initially tolerated and even encouraged.However, after a few months, Mao's government reversed its policy and persecuted those, totalling perhaps 500,000, who criticized, and were merely alleged to have criticized, the Party in what is called the Anti-Rightist Movement.Authors such as Jung Chang have alleged that the Hundred Flowers Campaign was merely a ruse to root out “dangerous” thinking.Others such as Dr Li Zhisui have suggested that Mao had initially seen the policy as a way of weakening those within his party who opposed him, but was surprised by the extent of criticism and the fact that it began to be directed at his own leadership.It was only then that he used it as a method of identifying and subsequently persecuting those critical of his regime.The Hundred Flowers movement led to the condemnation, silencing, and death of many intellectuals, also linked to Mao's Anti-Rightist Movement, with death tolls possibly in the millions.Great Leap Forward In January 1958, Mao launched the second Five Year Plan known as the Great Leap Forward, a plan intended as an alternative model for economic growth to the Soviet model focusing on heavy industry that was advocated by others in the party.Under this economic program, the relatively small agricultural collectives which had been formed to date were rapidly merged into far larger people's communes, and many of the peasants ordered to work on massive infrastructure projects and the small-scale production of iron and steel.All private food production was banned;livestock and farm implements were brought under collective ownership.Under the Great Leap Forward, Mao and other party leaders ordered the implementation of a variety of unproven and unscientific new agricultural techniques by the new communes.Combined with the diversion of labour to steel production and infrastructure projects and the reduced personal incentives under a commune system this led to an approximately 15% drop in grain production in 1959 followed by further 10% reduction in 1960 and no recovery in 1961.In an effort to win favour with their superiors and avoid being purged, each layer in the party hierarchy exaggerated the amount of grain produced under them and based on the fabricated success, party cadres were ordered to requisition a disproportionately high amount of the true harvest for state use primarily in the cities and urban areas but also for export.The net result, which was compounded in some areas by drought and in others by floods, was that the rural peasants were not left enough to eat and many millions starved to death in what is thought to be the largest famine in human history.This famine was a direct cause of the death of tens of millions of Chinese peasants between 1959 and 1962.Further, many children who became emaciated and malnourished during years of hardship and struggle for surivival, died shortly after the Great Leap Forward came to an end in 1962(Spence, 553).The extent of Mao's knowledge as to the severity of the

situation has been disputed.According to some, most notably Dr.Li Zhisui, Mao was not aware of anything more than a mild food and general supply shortage until late 1959.“But I do not think that when he spoke on July 2, 1959, he knew how bad the disaster had become, and he believed the party was doing everything it could to manage the situation”

Jung Chang and Jon Halliday, in Mao: the Unknown Story, provide ample documentary evidence that Mao knew of the vast suffering and that he was dismissive of it, blaming bad weather or other officials for the famine.“Although slaughter was not his purpose with the Leap, he [Mao] was more than ready for myriad deaths to result, and hinted to his top echelon that they should not be too shocked if they happened(438-439).-Whatever the case, the Great Leap Forward led to millions of deaths in China.Mao lost esteem among many of the top party cadres and was eventually forced to abandon the policy in 1962, also losing some political power to moderate leaders.However, he was able to use his propaganda base to mitigate the damage caused by the failure of the programme, implying that he was only partly to blame.As a result, he was able to remain Secretary of the Communist Party.The Great Leap Forward was a disaster for China.Although the steel quotas were officially reached, almost all of it made in the countryside was useless lumps of iron, as it had been made from assorted scrap metal in home made furnaces with no reliable source of fuel such as coal.According to Zhang Rongmei, a geometry teacher in rural Shanghai during the Great Leap Forward:

We took all the furniture, pots, and pans we had in our house, and all our neighbors did likewise.We put all everything in a big fire and melted down all the metal.Moreover, most of the dams, canals and other infrastructure projects, which millions of peasants and prisoners had been forced to toil on and in many cases die for, proved useless as they had been built without the input of trained engineers, whom Mao had rejected on ideological grounds.In the Party Congress at Lushan in July/August 1959, several leaders expressed concern that the Great Leap Forward was not as successful as planned.The most direct of these was Minister of Defence Peng Dehuai.Mao orchestrated a denouncement of Peng and his supporters, stifling criticism of the Great Leap policies.There is a great deal of controversy over the number of deaths by starvation during the Great Leap Forward.Until the mid 1980s, when official census figures were

finally published by the Chinese Government, little was known about the scale of the disaster in the Chinese countryside, as the handful of Western observers allowed access during this time had been restricted to model villages where they were deceived into believing that Great Leap Forward had been a great success.There was also an assumption that the flow of individual reports of starvation that had been reaching the West, primarily through Hong Kong and Taiwan, must be localised or exaggerated as China was continuing to claim record harvests and was a net exporter of grain through the period.Censuses were carried out in China in 1953, 1964 and 1982.The first attempt to analyse this data in order to estimate the number of famine deaths was carried out by American demographer Dr Judith Banister and published in 1984.Given the lengthy gaps between the censuses and doubts over the reliability of the data, an accurate figure is difficult to ascertain.Nevertheless, Banister concluded that the official data implied that around 15 million excess deaths incurred in China during 1958-61 and that based on her modelling of Chinese demographics during the period and taking account of assumed underreporting during the famine years, the figure was around 30 million.Various other sources have put the figure between 20 and 43 million.On the international front, the period was dominated by the further isolation of China, due to start of the Sino-Soviet split which resulted in Khrushchev withdrawing all Soviet technical experts and aid from the country.The split was triggered by border disputes, and arguments over the control and direction of world communism, and other disputes pertaining to foreign policy.Most of the problems regarding communist unity resulted from the death of Stalin and his replacement by Khrushchev.Stalin had established himself as the successor of ”correct“ Marxist thought well before Mao controlled the Communist Party of China, and therefore Mao never challenged the suitability of any Stalinist doctrine(at least while Stalin was alive).Upon the death of Stalin, Mao believed(perhaps because of seniority)that the leadership of the ”correct“ Marxist doctrine would fall to him.The resulting tension between Khrushchev(at the head of a politically/militarily superior government), and Mao(believing he had a superior understanding of Marxist ideology)eroded the previous patron-client relationship between the USSR and CPC.Partly-surrounded by hostile American military bases(reaching from South Korea, Japan, Okinawa, and Taiwan), China was now confronted with a new Soviet threat from the north and west.Both the internal crisis and the external threat called for extraordinary statesmanship from Mao, but as China entered the new decade the statesmen of the People's Republic were in hostile confrontation with each other.The Great Leap policies were effectively given up following a Politburo meeting in January 1961 and Mao took a more backseat role whilst more moderate leaders such as Liu Shaoqi, who had become State President in 1959 and Deng Xiaoping rescued the economy by disbanding the people's communes, introducing elements of private control of peasant smallholdings and importing grain from Canada and Australia to

mitigate the worst effects of famine.Cultural Revolution

Following these events, other members of the Communist Party, including Liu Shaoqi and Deng Xiaoping, decided that Mao should be removed from actual power and only remain in a largely ceremonial and symbolic role.They attempted to marginalize Mao, and by 1959, Liu Shaoqi became State President, but Mao remained Chairman.Liu and others began to look at the situation much more realistically, somewhat abandoning the idealism Mao wished for.Facing the prospect of losing his place on the political stage, Mao responded to Liu and Deng's movements by launching the Cultural Revolution in 1966.According to Jung Chang and Jon Halliday, in Mao: the Unknown Story, Mao was bitter that his Great Leap Forward programme had been stopped by Liu and other party leaders, and he was determined to exact revenge.The Cultural Revolution allowed Mao to circumvent the Communist hierarchy by giving power directly to the Red Guards, groups of young people, often teenagers, who set up their own tribunals.The Revolution led to the destruction of much of China's cultural heritage and the imprisonment of a huge number of Chinese intellectuals, as well as creating general economic and social chaos in the country.Millions of lives were ruined during this period, which is depicted by such Chinese films as To Live and Farewell My Concubine.It was during this period that Mao chose Lin Biao to become his successor.Mao and Lin Biao formed an alliance leading up to the Cultural Revolution in order for the purges to succeed.Mao need Lin's clout for his plan to work.In return, Lin was made Mao's successor.Somewhat later, it is unclear whether Lin was planning a military coup or an assassination attempt;he died trying to flee China, probably anticipating his arrest, in a suspicious plane crash over Mongolia.It was declared that Lin was planning to depose Mao, and he was posthumously expelled from the CPC.At this time, Mao lost trust in many of the top CPC figures.In 1969, Mao declared the Cultural Revolution to be over, although the official history of the People's Republic of China marks the end of the Cultural Revolution in 1976 with Mao's death.In the last years of his life, Mao was faced with declining health due to either Parkinson's disease or, according to Li Zhisui, motor neurone disease, as well as lung ailments due to smoking and heart trouble.Mao remained passive as various factions within the Communist Party mobilized for the power struggle anticipated after his death.When Mao could not swim any longer, the indoor swimming pool he had at Zhongnanhai was converted into a giant reception hall, according to Li Zhisui.Death Mao Zedong died at the age of 82, on September 9, 1976 at 10 minutes past midnight in Beijing.Mao had been in poor health for several years and had declined visibly for some months prior to his death.His body lay in state at the Great Hall of the People.A memorial service was held in Tiananmen Square on September 18, 1976.There was a three minute silence observed during this service.His body was later placed into the Mausoleum of Mao Zedong, although he wished to be cremated and had been one of the first high-ranking officials to sign the ”Proposal that all Central Leaders be Cremated after Death“ in November 1956.As anticipated after Mao’s death, there was a power struggle for control of China.On one side were the leftists led by the Gang of Four, who wanted to continue the policy of revolutionary mass mobilization.On the other side were the rightists, which consisted of two groups.One was the restorationists led by Hua Guofeng who advocated a return to central planning along the Soviet model.The other was the reformers, led by Deng Xiaoping, who wanted to overhaul the Chinese economy based on market-oriented policies and to de-emphasize the role of Maoist ideology in determining economic and political policy.Eventually, the moderates won control of the government.Deng Xiaoping defeated Hua Guofeng in a bloodless power struggle shortly afterwards.Cult of Mao

One of the reasons Mao is most remembered is the Cult of Mao, the personality cult that was created around him.Mao presented himself as an enemy of landowners, businessmen, and Western and American imperialism, as well as an ally of impoverished peasants, farmers and workers.Some argue that personality cults go against the basic ideas of Marxism.Stalin, however, circumvented this and began cultivating a cult of personality around himself and Lenin, even though Lenin expressly wished that no monuments be created after his death.Mao said the following about cults at the 1958 Party congress in Chengdu, where he expressed support for the idea of personality cults—even ones like Stalin's:

There are two kinds of personality cults.One is a healthy personality cult, that is, to worship men like Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin.Because they hold the truth in their hands.The other is a false personality cult, i.e.not analysed and blind worship.In 1962, Mao proposed the Socialist Education Movement(SEM)in an attempt to ”protect“ the peasants against the temptations of feudalism and the sprouts of capitalism that he saw re-emerging in the countryside(due to Liu's economic reforms).Large quantities of politicised art were produced and circulated—with Mao at the centre.Numerous posters and musical compositions referred to Mao as ”A red sun in the centre of our hearts“(我们心中的红太阳)and a ”Savior of the people“(人民的大救星).The Cult of Mao proved vital in starting the Cultural Revolution.China's youth had mostly been brought up during the Communist era, and they had been told to love Mao.Thus they were his greatest supporters.Their feelings for him were so strong that many followed his urge to challenge all established authority.In October 1966, Mao's Quotations From Chairman Mao Tse-Tung, which was known as the Little Red Book was published.Party members were encouraged to carry a copy with them and possession was almost mandatory as a criterion for membership.Over the years, Mao's image became displayed almost everywhere, present in homes, offices and shops.His quotations were typographically emphasised by putting them in boldface or red type in even the most obscure writings.Legacy Mao's legacy has produced a large amount of controversy.Many Chinese mainlanders continue to regard Mao Zedong as a great revolutionary leader, although they also believe that he made serious mistakes in his later life.According to Deng Xiaoping, Mao was ”seventy-percent right and thirty-percent wrong“, and his ”contributions are primary and his mistakes secondary.“ Some, including members of the Communist Party of China, hold Mao responsible for pulling China away from its biggest ally, the USSR, in the Sino-Soviet Split, while others admire his break with what Mao considered to be ”capitalist-roaders.“ The Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution were also considered to be major disasters in his policy by his critics and even many of his supporters.Mao has also been blamed for not encouraging birth control and for creating a demographic bump, which later Chinese leaders responded to with the one child policy.Supporters of Mao credit him with advancing the social and economic development of Chinese society.They point out that before 1949, for instance, the illiteracy rate in Mainland China was 80 percent, and life expectancy was a meager 35 years.At his death, illiteracy had declined to less than seven percent, and average life expectancy had increased to more than 70 years(alternative statistics also quote improvements, though not nearly as dramatic).In addition to these increases, the total population of China increased 57% to 700 million, from the constant 400 million mark during the span between the Opium War and the Chinese Civil War.Supporters also state that, under Mao's regime, China ended its ”Century of Humiliation“ from Western imperialism and regained its status as a major world power.They also state their belief that Mao also industrialized China to a considerable extent and ensured China's sovereignty during his rule.Some of Mao's supporters view the Kuomintang as having been corrupt and credit Mao with driving them off the Chinese mainland to Taiwan.They also argue that the Maoist era improved women's rights by abolishing

prostitution, a phenomenon that was to return after Deng Xiaoping and post-Maoist CPC leaders increased liberalization of the economy.Indeed, Mao once famously remarked that ”Women hold up half the heavens“.A popular slogan during the Cultural Revolution was, ”Break the chains, unleash the fury of women as a mighty force for revolution!“ Skeptics observe that similar gains in literacy and life expectancy occurred after 1949 in the small neighboring island country of Taiwan, which was ruled by Mao's opponents, namely Chiang Kai-Shek and the Kuomintang, even though they themselves perpetrated substantial repression in their own right.The regime that took over in Taiwan was composed of the same people ruling the Mainland for over 20 years when life expectancy was so low, yet life expectancy there also increased.However, the United States helped Taiwan with aid and infrastructure, along with Japan and other countries.Another comparison has been between India and China, where India was initially ahead of China in some health measures before Mao took over, but Communist-ruled China surpassed capitalist India in virtually every measure of economic and social development, a position supported by a study that Indian economist Amartya Sen wrote.Though it is worth noting that China did not have the same kind of ethnic and social problems that India did, such as the caste system.Mao believed that ”socialism [was] the only way out for China“ because the United States and other Western countries would not allow China to develop using theories such as Imperialism, as described by Lenin.The United States placed a trade embargo on China as a result of its involvement in the Korean War, lasting until Richard Nixon decided that developing relations with China would be useful in also dealing with the Soviet Union.Some people claim that while the Tigers(South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore)obtained favorable trade terms from the United States, most Third World capitalist countries did not, and they saw nothing like the economic growth of the Tigers.The other side of this debate argue that the disparity in per capita income between Taiwan and the mainland today demonstrates that Mao's statement may have been a self-fullfilling proposition.There is more consensus on Mao's role as a military strategist and tactician during the Chinese Civil War and the Korean War.Even among those who find Mao's ideology to be either unworkable or abhorrent, many acknowledge that Mao was a brilliant political and military strategist-Mao's military writings continue to have a large amount of influence both among those who seek to create an insurgency and those who seek to crush one.The ideology of Maoism has influenced many communists around the world, including third world revolutionary movements such as Cambodia's Khmer Rouge, Peru's Shining Path, the revolutionary movement in Nepal, and also claims influence of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA.China has moved sharply away from Maoism since Mao's death, and most people outside of China who describe themselves as Maoist regard the Deng Xiaoping reforms to be a betrayal of Mao's legacy.Many in mainland China regard Mao as a revolutionary hero in the first half of his life but hold that he was corrupt after gaining power.However, most Chinese liberals eschew Mao's authoritarian tactics.Contemporary views about him in the PRC are affected by bans on some works that criticise Mao(including this article).The controversial Mao: the Unknown Story, by Jung Chang and Jon Halliday, provides a far less flattering picture of Mao than previous historical works do.Chang's book notes that Mao fabricated many myths about his background and youth to enhance his image as a true ”people's hero.“ It likewise contends that details relevant to key events in the Long March(in particular the 1935 Battle of Luding Bridge)were falsified.Open academic discussion of Mao's life is restricted by the official ”70% good, 30% bad“ verdict.As the Chinese government instituted free market economic reform in the early 21st century, it put less emphasis on studying Mao.For example, there was little state recognition of the 25th anniversary of Mao's death.This was a clear contrast with 1993, when the state organized numerous events and seminars commemorating Mao's 100th birthday.Nevertheless, unlike the denunciations of Stalin and ”Stalinism“ by Khrushchev during the Soviet era in Russia, the Chinese government has never officially repudiated the tactics of Mao.Critics of the government who uphold Mao's critique of the current rulers of China as betraying the core principals of socialism are also suppressed by the Chinese government.In the mid-1990s, Mao Zedong's picture began to appear on all new renminbi currency from the People’s Republic of China.This was officially instituted as an anti-counterfeiting measure as Mao's face is widely recognized in contrast to the generic figures that appear in older currency.On March 13, 2006, a story in the People's Daily reported that a proposal had been made to replace Mao's portrait on currency with that of Sun Yat-sen and Deng Xiaoping.Genealogy Mao Zedong had several wives which contributed to a large family.These were:

1.Luo Yixiu(罗一秀, 1889-1910)of Shaoshan: married 1907 to 1910

2.Ma Daiwei(马代伟,1895-1947)of Xi'an;”the unpopular wife“, no children, married from 1912-1920, believed to have died of cancer

3.Yang Kaihui(杨开慧, 1901-1930)of Changsha: married 1921 to 1927, executed by the Kuomintang in 1930

4.He Zizhen(贺子珍, 1910-1984)of Jiangxi: married May 1928 to 1939

5.Jiang Qing:(江青, 1914-1991), married 1939 to Mao's death

His ancestors were:

• Wen Qimei(文七妹, 1867-1919), mother

• Mao Yichang(毛贻昌, 1870-1920), father, courtesy name Mao Shunsheng(毛顺生)

• Mao Enpu(毛恩普), paternal grandfather

He had several siblings:

• Mao Zemin(毛泽民, 1895-1943), younger brother

• Mao Zetan(毛泽覃, 1905-1935), younger brother

• Mao Zehong, sister(executed by the Kuomintang in 1930)

Mao Zedong's parents altogether had six sons and two daughters.Two of the sons and both daughters died young, leaving the three brothers Mao Zedong, Mao Zemin, and Mao Zetan.Like all three of Mao Zedong's wives, Mao Zemin and Mao Zetan were communists.Like Yang Kaihui, both Zemin and Zetan were killed in warfare during Mao Zedong's lifetime.Note that the character ze(泽)appears in all of the siblings' given names.This is a common Chinese naming convention.He had several children:

• Mao Anying(毛岸英): son to Yang, married to Liu Siqi(刘思齐), who was born Liu Songlin(刘松林), killed in action during the Korean War

• Mao Anqing(毛岸青): son to Yang, married to Shao Hua(邵华), son Mao Xinyu(毛新宇)

• Li Min(李敏): daughter to He, married to Kong Linghua(孔令华), son Kong Ji'ning(孔继宁), daughter Kong Dongmei(孔冬梅)

• Li Na(李讷): daughter to Jiang(whose birth given name was Li), married to Wang Jingqing(王景清), son Wang Xiaozhi(王效芝)

Sources suggest that Mao did have other children during his revolutionary days;in most of these cases the children were left with peasant families because it was difficult to take care of the children while focusing on revolution.Two English researchers who retraced the entire Long March route in 2002-2003 located a woman who they believe might well be a missing child abandoned by Mao to peasants in

1935 Ed Jocelyn and Andrew McEwen hope a member of the Mao family will respond to requests for a DNA test.Writings

Mao is the attributed author of Quotations From Chairman Mao Tse-Tung, known in the West as the ”Little Red Book“ and in Cultural-revolution China as the ”Red Treasure Book"(紅寶書): this is a collection of short extracts from his speeches and articles, edited by Lin Biao and ordered topically.Mao wrote several other philosophical treatises, both before and after he assumed power.These include:

• On Practice(《实践论》);1937

• On Contradiction(《矛盾论》);1937

• On Protracted War(《论持久战》);1938

• On New Democracy(《新民主主义论》);1940

• Talks at the Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art(《在延安文艺座谈会上的讲话》);1942

• On the Correct Handling of the Contradictions Among the People(《正确处理人民内部矛盾问题》);1957

• In Memory of Norman Bethune(《纪念白求恩》)

• The Foolish Old Man Who Removed the Mountains(《愚公移山》)

• Serve the People(《为人民服务》)

Mao was furthermore a skilled calligrapher with a highly personal style, and his calligraphy is still much visible in Mainland China.Poetry

Mao also wrote poetry, mainly in the classical ci and shi forms.His poems are all in the traditional Chinese verse style.Though Mao may not be one of the best Chinese poets, his poems are generally considered well written and of high literary quality.As did most Chinese intellectuals of his generation, Mao received rigorous education in Chinese classical literature, and thus his skill in poetry is of little surprise.His style was deeply influenced by the great Tang Dynasty poets Li Bai and Li He.He is considered to be a romantic poet, in constrast to the realist poets represented by Du Fu.Many of Mao's poems are still very popular in China.They are frequently quoted in popular culture, literature and daily conversations.Some of his most well-known poems are: Changsha(1925), The Double Ninth(1929.10), Loushan Pass(1935), The Long March(1935), Snow(1936.02), The PLA Captures Nanjing(1949.04), Reply to Li Shuyi(1957.05.11), and Ode to the Plum Blossom(1961.12).The general consensus is that his pre-1949 works are better.

第四篇：湖南韶山导游词

好了，现在请大家注意一下，我们马上就要进入韶山了。大家看，前面有一幅对联，左联：为有牺牲多壮志，右联：敢叫日月换新天。大家都知道中国有四大火炉：长沙、南京、武汉、重庆。那么除了四大火炉外，最热的地方是哪儿呢？对，韶山！因为韶山是红太阳升起的地方嘛。

韶山旅游区位于湘潭市、韶山市。1994年被国务院确定为国家级风景名胜区。总面积214平方公里，人口9.8万，姓毛的人家占70%。韶山的整个地势是由西北向东南逐渐倾斜的，东部为丘陵和较为开阔的地带，西部山峰环绕，由于长年的封山育林，峰峦一片葱郁。韶山最高峰韶峰是南岳衡山的第71峰，第72峰是岳麓峰。韶山是一块风水宝地，关于它的传说都是美丽的。传说当年舜帝南巡，来到了湖南，来到了韶山，见此风景宜人，心情十分愉快。便令随从奏起了韶乐（当时的一种宫庭音乐），这一奏，忽然一瞬间，只见百鸟欢跃，附近的飞禽走兽都闻声而起，欢歌起舞。由于附近全是山林地带，后来人们便根据舜帝用韶乐引来百鸟的故事，这地方叫做韶山。韶山的韶拆开就是音召，正是取这个意思啦。以韶字命名的还有韶山冲、韶峰、韶河等。韶山的传说很多，除此之外，还有关乾隆的。据说，清朝乾隆曾断言，他说韶山是块风水宝地，500年内必出真命天子，此人的姓必是“反手掌乾坤”。果然不出所料，1893，诞生了我们的一代伟人毛泽东，同时也正巧验证了乾隆的话。大家可以试着写一下，把手掌的“手”字最后一笔反过来是什么字，反手掌乾坤就是毛字。

毛主席的母亲文氏是湘乡人，文氏在家中排行老七，别人都叫她文七妹。因为文氏家的祖坟在韶山，为了清明节上坟的时候有个落脚的地方，文氏的父亲就将文七妹嫁到韶山，嫁给了毛主席的父亲毛顺生。文氏比毛顺生大三岁，俗话说：“女大三，抱金砖”，在当地毛顺生家里条件还算是可以的。在文氏生下毛泽东的前一天晚上，毛顺生做了一个奇怪的梦，梦见一条飞龙翘首东望，迟迟不肯离去。在1893年12月26日一个漆黑的夜晚，电闪雷鸣，狂风大作，一代伟人诞生了。毛泽东从小接到外婆家，在外婆家的山后有一块非常像人形的巨石，人们称为石观音，他外婆便把他带到石观音面前，拜为干娘，以保佑他茁壮成长，石儿伢子由此而来了。

毛主席的父亲毛顺生是个很精明的生意人，他对父亲的做法非常反感，所以时常顶撞父亲。有一次，他父亲将其生意上的朋友，请到家中做客，叫毛泽东招待一下，但毛泽东死命不从，便逃出家门，其父亲毛顺生追出来，毛泽东便跑到池塘边威胁父亲：“如果再逼我，就跳下去”，毛顺生当时非常担心，因为两个大儿子夭折了，害怕再失去一个，只好作罢。毛主席是非常孝顺他母亲的，有一次跟父亲斗气，一连十几天没跟父亲说话，母亲见不过劝他，给他父亲跪下认错，毛泽东跪下说：“母亲，这只腿是为你而跪的。”

好了，待会儿，我们要参观的一个景点，就是毛主席铜像广场。毛主席铜像高10.1米，重3.7吨。10.1米意味着10月1号，中华人民共和国成立的日子。所以毛主席铜像是取自于开国大典上的一个形象，主席手执发言稿、身穿中山装、面带微笑。韶山冲的冲意就是山谷中的一块平地，那么毛主席铜像广场就处于韶山冲这块平地的中心部位。毛主席铜像由南京晨光制造厂制造，由我国为著名雕刻家刘开梁和程允贤先生雕刻，历时120天。毛主席铜像于1993年12月6日从南京启运，一路经江苏、安徽、湖北、江西进入湖南。当运载毛主席铜像的汽车队开到江西井岗山的时候，突然汽车熄火了。司机们反复检修也没查出什么问题。这时一位70多岁的老表说：“井岗山是毛主席最早走出深山，拿起枪杆子闹革命的地方，他老人家想在这儿住一晚看一看。”到了第二天，车子没有经过任何检修，奇迹般地可以开动了。在江西与湖南交界处的一个“人”字型山坡上，天正下着瓢泼大雨，进井岗山的路很滑，一百多辆车子都受到了不同程度的损伤，有的根本走不动，只有运载铜像的车子很顺利，安然无恙地开过了井岗山。当有记者问起司机时，司机说：“我想是得到毛主席的保佑了。”所以现在很多的司机都有在车子前面挂一个毛主席小像章，以求一路平安。

关于毛主席铜像还出了一连串的奇事怪事，不知大家从新闻媒介中知道了多少。在此，小x就给大家说说吧！毛主席铜像揭幕仪式于1993年12月26日毛主席诞辰100周年之际正式举行。江泽民主席亲自从北京赶到韶山为毛主席铜像揭彩。当天艳阳高照万里无云，但奇怪的是，上午10:30左右，月亮也出来了。铜像的左边是太阳，右边是月亮，太阳与月亮相互照映，照得整片天空通亮。于是形成了千载难逢、非常罕见的天文奇观――日月同辉。当时正值12月份，而满山的杜鹃花顿时也全部盛开了，以毛主席故居山后的开得最艳。大家都知道，杜鹃花一般是在每年的三至四月份期间开放，而这次则是在寒冬腊月之际，比以往的开花季节提前了几个月。难道不能说是一件有违自然规律的事情？那时舜帝南巡、乾隆预言，这些都只是传说，没有任何历史根据、凭证。而日月同辉与杜鹃花开，是人们亲眼所见，同时还有当时摄下的盛况。于是人们说：毛主席太伟大了，他能使天随人意变、花伴天意开。毛主席真神，他的光辉名字和丰功伟业将与日月同辉、与天地共存！待会儿，我们到了韶山就可以看到日月同辉和杜鹃花开的相片和实况录相。当时还不止这些奇怪的事。1993年12月26日，揭彩的那一刻，有6只彩色的大蝴蝶围着主席铜像翩翩起舞，久久不肯离去。观瞻者惊叹不已，一老人介绍说是毛主席的六位亲人：杨开慧、毛泽民、毛泽翠、毛岸英、毛楚雄、毛英建来给主席祝寿了。

各位团友，像这样的一件奇事、怪事单独的发生并不算什么，但一连串的奇事、怪事在同一时间、同一地点、同一个人身上，就不得不承认这真是太奇特了。主席毕竟是伟人，他老人家虽然离开了我们，但冥冥之中仍活在我们身边，活在我们心中。所以毛主席铜像被称为“东方的一尊神像”。

大家到韶山游览一次，肯定是要带些纪念品回去，象主席像章、主席项链、钥匙扣、毛主席集邮册等等。这些都是非常常见的、非常普通的。那么到底哪种才是最好的、最具有收藏价值的呢？我想作为导游，小x有义务、有责任为大家引导啦。在韶山最珍贵的纪念品莫过于由国家中央档案局批准、发行的毛主席铜像。这种小铜像是1999年12月10为庆祝澳门回归而发行的。（小铜像是铜像广场铜像形象缩小100倍）到目前为止，已发行了四个版本，铜像由中央档案局统一编号，从0001号到9999号，总共9999枚。为什么只发行9999而不是9998或10000尊呢？因为毛主席一生与9特别有缘。大家不妨跟小x一起回忆一下，在1949年9月9日率领解放军攻入了北京；1976年9月9日，是毛主席逝世的日子。那么还有一个9字呢，则是九五之尊的意思了，也象征着毛主席的地位是不可动摇不可替代的。毛主席铜像一经发行，第一号0001号及最后一号9999号就马上被原湖南省委书记王茂林和国家主席江泽民请去了。因为0001表示起点，毛主席出生在韶山，出生在湖南，第0001号小铜像当然要留在湖南了。现在王茂林将0001号主席铜像捐赠给了省博物馆保存了。而9999表示九五之尊，理所当然只有主席才能拥有了。如果大家细心的话，有时偶尔会在电视上看到江泽民总书记办公桌上摆着一尊毛主席小铜像，那就是第9999号小铜像了。

待会儿，大家请铜像时一定要注意以下几点：第一，毛主席小铜像是由韶山市旅游管理局在国营韶山故居商场定点发行的，其它地方的小铜像没有唯一的珍藏编号。真正的毛主席小铜像是紫铜制成的。其它的有的是玻璃铜、瓷的、石灰的。第二，大家在请毛主席小铜像时，一定要注意是“请”，而不是买。用买字就是对毛主席的不尊敬了，韶山人听见了是很不高兴的了。第三，如果大家要买一般的纪念品，在小商贩手中就可买到，他们不用交税，价格也很便宜。

等一下我们到了定点发行处会有专门的讲解员为大家讲解。好了，大家等会儿一定不要忘了，如果大家有兴趣，一定要把主席请回家了，请一尊神像，带上主席的一点灵气，保佑家人平平安安、幸福健康！
