Language points
1. What a long river! 好长的一条河流啊！
本句是由 what 引导的感叹句，此处主语和谓语省略。由 what 引导的感叹句句型结构为“what (+ a/an) + 形容词 + 名词（+ 主语 + 谓语）”。
e.g. What a good idea it is! 这是个多么好的主意啊！
3. It rises in the mountains of Qinghai Province and runs all the way to the East China Sea.
它（长江）发源于青海省内的山脉，一直蜿蜒至东海。
(1) 长江是中国第一大河，全长约 6 300 千米。长江发源于青藏高原唐古拉山脉各拉丹冬峰，流经青海、四川、西藏、云南、重庆、湖北、湖南、江西、安徽、江苏等地，最后在上海注入东海。
(2) 句中的 rise 用作动词，意思是“起源，发源”。
e.g. The River Thames rises in the hills. 泰晤士河发源于丘陵。
此外，rise 还有“上升”的意思。
e.g. The sea level begins to rise. 海平面开始上升。
辨析：rise与raise
rise 不及物动词 意为“升起；上升；增加”，常指（日、月等）升起，（数字、数量或价值等）增加。
raise 及物动词 意为“举起；提高（数量、水平等）”，发出此动作的通常是人，如抬头、举手等。
e.g. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. 太阳东升西落。
The price of oil rose. 油价上涨了。
Please raise your hand first before answering the question.
回答问题之前请先举手。
