　　北国风光，千里冰封，万里雪飘。
　　望长城内外，惟馀莽莽；大河上下，顿失滔滔。
　　山舞银蛇，原驰蜡象，欲与天公试比高。
　　须晴日，看红妆素裹，分外妖娆。
　　江山如此多娇，
　　引无数英雄竞折腰。
　　惜秦皇汉武，略输文采；唐宗宋祖，稍逊风骚。
　　一代天骄，成吉思汗，只识弯弓射大雕。
　　俱往矣，数风流人物，还看今朝。
　　Snow
　　North country scene：
　　A hundred leagues locked in ice，
　　A thousand leagues of whirling snow.
　　Both side of the Great Wall
　　One single white immensity.
　　The Yellow River's swift current
　　Is stilled from end to end.
　　The mountains dance silver snakes
　　And the highland charge like wax-hued elephants.
　　Vying with heaven in stature.
　　On a fine day， the land，
　　Clad in white， adorned in red，
　　Crows more enchanting.
　　This land so rich in beauty
　　Has made countless heroes bow in homage.
　　But alas！ Qin Shihuang and Han Wudi
　　Were lacking in literary grace，
　　And Tang Taizong and Song Taizu
　　Had little poetry in their souls；
　　That proud son of Heaven，
　　Genghis Khan，
　　Knew only shooting eagles， bow outstretched.
　　All are past and gone！
　　For truly great men
　　Look to this age alone.
　　段子：
　　设计方案最突出的亮点有三处，分别称为空中花桥、椭圆运河、植物走廊。空中花桥的概念，是在黄浦江上，建一座200公尺高、 600公尺长，50公尺宽，供行人使用的桥。顾名思义，桥面种植不同种类花卉，具有巴比伦空中花园味道，也是上海的一道人工彩虹，它将成为世博会标志性建筑，并在世博会后将加以保留。
　　译文：
　　Three proposals in the design are especially attractive， with the names of the Flower Bridge in the Sky， Ellipse Canal and the Plantation Corridor respectively. As to the Flower Bridge in the Sky， it is a pedestrian bridge to be built on the Huangpu River， 200 meters high， 600 meters long and 50 meters wide. As we can see from its name， the bridge will be covered with flowers of various kinds， endowing the area a flavor of the Babylon. This Flower Bridge， a man-made rainbow over Shanghai will be retained after the Expo as one of the symbol buildings for the Expo.
