上海，春秋属吴国。战国先后属越国、楚国，春秋战国时期，上海是楚国春申君黄歇的封邑，故别称为“申”。晋朝时期，因渔民创造捕鱼工具“扈”，江流入海处称“渎”，因此松江下游一带被称为“扈渎”，以后又改“扈”为“沪”，故上海简称“沪”。

唐天宝十载（公元751年），上海地区属华亭县（今松江区）。北宋淳化二年（公元991年），因松江上游不断淤浅，海岸线东移，大船出入不便，外来船舶只得停泊在松江的一条支流“上海浦”上（其位置在今外滩至十六铺附近的黄浦江）。

南宋咸淳三年（公元1267年），在上海浦西岸设置市镇，定名为“上海镇”。元至元二十九年（公元1292年），中央政府把上海镇从华亭县划出，批准设立上海县，标志着上海建城之始。

The city is located on the Huangpu River, which gives oceangoing vessels access to it. Shanghai was settled c. AD 1000, and later under the Ming dynasty it was an area of intense cotton production. This changed when it became the first Chinese port opened to trade with the West after China's defeat by Britain in the Opium Wars (1842); it came to dominate the nation's commerce. The site of the Chinese Communist Party's founding in 1921, it saw severe fighting in the Sino-Japanese War of 1937–45 and was occupied by Japan during World War II. Since the communist victory in 1949, it has become China's chief industrial and commercial centre and one of its leading centres of higher education and scientific research.

上海

中国华中东部直辖市。滨临东海，与江苏省和浙江省交界。地处黄浦江畔，远洋轮船能靠近城市。约自1000年起即有人定居，后来在明朝期间，此地成为密集的棉花产地。1842年当中国在鸦片战争中被英国击败后，上海成为中国首批向西方开放通商的港口后，原为棉产地的形势开始转变，开始主导国家的商业。1921年中国共产党在此地成立；中日战争期间(1937～1945)，在上海爆发剧烈的战斗；第二次世界大战，日本占领此地。自共产党于1949年获胜后，成为中国首要的工业与商业中心，以及高等教育和科学研究的领先之地。
