Floodwater from the continuous rainstorm on the upper reaches of Yangtze River gushes out of the eight-hole sluice gate on the Three Gorges Dam Tuesday, July 18, 2006. The hydro-power project, the world's largest of its kind, has played an active role in storing the floodwater and lagging flood peak during the summer flood season ever since the tearing down of the cofferdam on June 6 this year. It is the first time the sluice gate was raised to release floodwater from the reservoir. [newsphoto]
