相传大禹治水，用神斧将高山劈成“人门”、“鬼门”、“神门”三道峡谷，三门峡因此而得名。三门峡所在的黄河中游地区是中华民族的发祥地之一。随着万里黄河第一坝—三门峡水利枢纽工程的建设，这片古老的土地上崛起了一座新兴工业城市—三门峡市。三门峡以其悠久的历史、灿烂的文化、秀丽的山川和丰富的资源为特点的这一“古都新市”被誉为镶嵌在黄河岸边的一颗明珠。
 
Legend has it that when Yu the Great, the reputed founder of the Xia Dynasty, was taming rivers, he split a high mountain into three gates – Man Gate, Ghost Gate and God Gate, hence the name Sanmenxia (literally three gategorges). The middle reaches of the Yellow River where Sanmenxia is located is one of the cradles of the Chinese nation. With the construction of Sanmenxia Key Water Control Project, the first of its kind to be built on the long river, Sanmenxia arose in the ancient land as a new industrial city. With its long history, brilliant culture, picturesque landscape and rich resources, Sanmenxia, an ancient yet new city, has been called a pearl on the Yellow River.

The Story Behind These Company Names
 
Apple Computers - Steve Jobs was three months late in filing a name for the business because he didn’t get any better name for his new company. So one day he told to his staff: “If I’ll not get better name by 5 o’clock today, our company’s name will be anything he likes…” So at 5 o’clock nobody come up with better name, and he was eating Apple that time… so he kept the name of the company “Apple Computers.”
 
Google - The name started as a joking boast about the amount of information the search-engine would be able to search. It was originally named “Googol,” a word for the number represented by 1 followed by 100 zeros. After founders Stanford grad students Sergey Brin and Larry Page resented their project to an angel investor, they received a cheque made out to “Google.”
 
Intel – Bob Noyce and Gordon Moore wanted to name their new company “Moore Noyce,” but that was already trademarked by a hotel chain, so they had to settle for an acronym of INTegrated ELectronics = INTEL.
 
Yahoo! – The word was invented by Jonathan Swift and used in his book “Gulliver’s Travels.” It represents a person who is repulsive in appearance and action and is barely human. Yahoo! Founders Jerry Yang and David Filo selected the name because they considered themselves yahoos.
 
公司名称背后的故事
 
      苹果电脑：史蒂夫·乔布斯登记公司的名称晚了三个月，因为他不能为他的新公司想出个好名字。一天他对员工说：“如果今天下午5点钟还想不出个好名， 我们公司就随便起个名算了。” 到了5点钟，名字仍然着落， 当时他正在吃苹果， 于是公司从此就叫 “苹果电脑”了。
 
   谷歌：这个名称最初是戏言，该搜索引擎能够搜索到海量信息。它源自英文Googol，即10的100次方。当年，公司的创始人斯坦福大学毕业生谢尔盖·布林与拉里·佩奇把他们的项目提交给一位天才投资家后，他们收到的支票上公司名字被写成了Google。
 
     英特尔：创始人戈登·穆尔与鲍勃·诺伊斯本想给公司取名“穆尔 - 诺伊斯”，然而这个名字已经被一家连锁旅馆注册了， 所以他们只好将 （公司主要产品） INTegrated Electronics（集成电路）两个英文单词的词头合并（INTEL），作为公司名称。
 
  雅虎：yahoo一词由乔纳森·斯威夫特首创，并用于他的小说《格利弗游记》。他指的是一个外表和行为举止都招人讨厌并且几乎没有人性的家伙。 雅虎创办人杨致远和戴维·菲洛之所以选中此名，是因为他们觉得自己是这样的讨厌鬼。
