Abstract: In regard to the necessity of the study of high energy cosmic ray extensive air showers,a new Monte Carlo software is made which can simulate the hadron component,electromagnetic component and Čerenkov component of extensive air showers.This simulating program aims not only at the physics analysis of the EAS experiment of Mountain Liang-wang,but also at offering some samples that can be commonly used by other EAS experiments.

Key words: extensive air shower(EAS), Čerenkov, Monte Carlo simulation
