1.自由女神像介绍：
Out of all of America's symbols, none has proved more enduring or evocative
than the Statue of Liberty. This giant figure, torch in hand and clutching a stone
tablet, has for a century acted as a figurehead for the American Dream; indeed
there is probably no more immediately recognizable profile in existence. It's
worth remembering that the statue is - for Americans at least - a potent
reminder that the USA is a land of immigrants: it was New York Harbor where
the first big waves of European immigrants arrived, their ships entering through
the Verrazano Narrows to round the bend of the bay and catch a first glimpse
of
and the symbolic beginning of a new life.

These days, although only the very wealthy can afford to arrive here by sea,
and a would-be immigrant's first (and possibly last) view of the States is more
likely to be the customs check at JFK Airport, Liberty remains a stirring sight,
with Emma Lazarus's poem, The New Colossus, written originally to raise
funds for the statue's base, no less quotable than when it was written……

Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a
torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles.
From her beacon-hand Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
pomp!
masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse to your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden
door.

The statue, which depicts Liberty throwing off her shackles and holding a
beacon to light the world, was the creation of the French sculptor Frédéric
Auguste Bartholdi, who crafted it a hundred years after the American
Revolution in recognition of solidarity between the French and American
people (though it's fair to add that Bartholdi originally intended the statue for
Alexandria in Egypt). Bartholdi built Liberty in Paris between 1874 and 1884,
starting with a terracotta model and enlarging it through four successive
versions to its present size, a construction of thin copper sheets bolted
together and supported by an iron framework designed by Gustave Eiffel. The
arm carrying the torch was exhibited in Madison Square Park for seven years,
but the whole statue wasn't officially accepted on behalf of the American
people until 1884, after which it was taken apart, crated up and shipped to New
York.

It was to be another two years before it could be properly unveiled: money
had to be collected to fund the construction of the base, and for some reason
Americans were unwilling - or unable - to dip into their pockets. Only through
the campaigning efforts of newspaper magnate Joseph Pulitzer, a keen
supporter of the statue, did it all come together in the end. Richard Morris Hunt
built a pedestal around the existing star-shaped Fort Wood, and Liberty was
formally dedicated by President Cleveland on October 28, 1886, in a
flag-waving shindig that has never really stopped. The statue was closed for a
few years in the mid-1980s for extensive renovation and, in 1986, fifteen
million people descended on Manhattan for the statue's centennial
celebrations.

Today you can climb steps up to the crown, but the cramped stairway
though the torch sadly remains closed to the public. Don't be surprised if
there's an hour-long wait to ascend. Even if there is, Liberty Park's views of the
lower Manhattan skyline, the twin towers of the World Trade Center lording it
over the jutting teeth of New York's financial quarter, are spectacular enough.
2.纽约唐人街介绍：

On the surface, Chinatown is prosperous - a
called it - with the lowest crime rate, highest employment and least juvenile
delinquency of any city district. Walk through its crowded streets at any time of
day, and every shop is doing a brisk and businesslike trade: restaurant after
restaurant is booming; there are storefront displays of shiny squids, clawing
crabs and clambering lobster; and street markets offer overflowing piles of
exotic green vegetables, garlic and ginger root. Chinatown has the feel of a
land of plenty, and the reason why lies with the Chinese themselves: even
here, in the very core of downtown Manhattan, they have been careful to
preserve their own way of dealing with things, preferring to keep affairs close
to the bond of the family and allowing few intrusions into a still-insular culture.
There have been several concessions to Westerners - storefront signs now
offer English translations, and Haagen Dazs and Baskin Robbins ice-cream
stores have opened on lower Mott Street - but they can't help but seem
incongruous. The one time of the year when Chinatown bursts open is during
the Chinese New Year festival, held each year on the first full moon after
January 19, when a giant dragon runs down Mott Street to the accompaniment
of firecrackers, and the gutters run with ceremonial dyes.

Beneath the neighborhood's blithely prosperous facade, however, there is a
darker underbelly. Sharp practices continue to flourish, with traditional
extortion and protection rackets still in business. Non-union sweatshops - their
assembly lines grinding from early morning to late into the evening - are still
visited by the US Department of Labor, who come to investigate workers'
testimonies of being paid below minimum wage for seventy-plus-hour work
weeks. Living conditions are abysmal for the poorer Chinese - mostly recent
immigrants and the elderly - who reside in small rooms in overcrowded
tenements ill-kept by landlords. Yet, because the community has been
cloistered for so long and has only just begun to seek help from city officials for
its internal problems, you won't detect any hint of difficulties unless you reside
in Chinatown for a considerable length of time.
3.迪斯尼乐园介绍：
Walt and Roy Disney began their partnership on October 16, 1923 when they
signed a contract to produce the Alice Comedies, a series of six- to
eight- minute animated films, or
What began as the Disney Brothers Studio evolved into The Walt Disney
Company.

Throughout the decades, the company has expanded worldwide from shorts
to feature-length animated and live- action films and television production;
character merchandise licensing; consumer products retailing; book, magazine
and music publishing; Internet activities; television and radio broadcasting;
cable television programming; and the operation of theme parks and resorts.

From the creation of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit in 1927 and the debut of
Mickey Mouse in 1928 to the premiere of Tarzan in 1999, animation has
remained the defining signature of the company. Along the way, Disney has
added successful TV shows like Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, opened
theme parks in California, Florida, France and Japan, launched more than 700
Disney Stores and added brands such as Touchstone, Miramax, ABC and
ESPN to the fold.

To make the most of Disneyland - the ultimate escapist fantasy and the
blueprint for imitations worldwide - throw yourself right into it. Don't think twice
about anything and go on every ride you can. The high admission price ($$36)
includes them all, although during peak periods each one can entail hours of
queueing. Remember, too, that the emphasis is on family fun; the authorities
take a dim view of anything remotely anti- social and eject those they consider
guilty.

Over four hundred
Adventure, Disneyland's biggest opening in years. Two hours of queueing are
built into the ride, with an interactive archeological dig and 1930s-style
newsreel show leading up to the main feature - a giddy journey along 2500ft of
skull- encrusted corridors in which you face fireballs, falling rubble, venomous
snakes and, inevitably, a rolling boulder finale. Disney claims that, thanks to
computer engineering, no two Indiana Jones rides are ever alike. Judge for
yourself.

Among the best of the older rides are two in Adventureland: the Pirates of
the Caribbean, a boat trip through underground caverns, singing along with
drunken pirates; and the Haunted Mansion, a riotous
company of the house spooks.

Tomorrowland is Disney's vision of the future, where the Space Mountain
roller coaster zips through the pitch-blackness of outer space, and the Star
Tours ride simulates a journey into the world of George Lucas. The Skyway
cable- car line that connects Tomorrowland with the clever but cloyingly
sentimental Fantasyland is the only spot in the park from which you can see
the outside world.

As for accommodation, try to visit Disneyland just for the day and spend the
night somewhere else. Most of the hotels and motels nearby cost well in
excess of $$70 per night.

You're not permitted to bring your own food to the park; you can only
consume the fast food sold on the premises.

Disneyland is at 1313 Harbor Blvd, Anaheim, 45 minutes by car from
downtown using the Santa Ana Freeway. In summer, the park is open daily
between 8am and 1am; otherwise opening hours are weekdays 10am to 6pm,
Saturday 9am to midnight, and Sunday 9am to 10pm. Arrive early; traffic
quickly becomes nightmarish, especially in the summer. For further information,
including public transportation details, call 714999-4565.

5.尼亚加拉大瀑布的介绍：

被称为世界七大奇景之一的尼亚加拉大瀑布位 于加拿大和美国交界的尼亚加
拉河上，它那丰沛而浩瀚的水汽和磅礴的气势，使所有前来观赏的游人都为 之震
撼。

尼亚加拉河长约56米，上接海拔174米的伊利湖，下注海拔7 5米的安大略
湖。这99米的落差，已足以形成湍急的水流，而两湖之间横亘着的一道石灰岩
断 崖，更使水量丰富的尼亚加拉河水在经过这里时骤然陡落，水势澎湃，声震如
雷。

从高处的伊利湖到低处的安大略湖，在经过河床绝壁上的半岛时，湖水分隔成
了两部份，分 别流入加拿大和美国，形成了一大一小两个瀑布。这两个瀑布在加
拿大这边的景致比在美国看起来要更加 美丽壮观。
Niagara Falls comprises three distinct cataracts. The tallest are the American
and Bridal Veil falls on the American side, separated by tiny Luna Island and
plunging over jagged rocks in a 180ft drop; the broad Horseshoe Falls which
curve their way over to Canada are probably the most impressive. They date
back a mere twelve thousand years, when the retreat of melting glaciers
allowed water trapped in Lake Erie to gush north to Lake Ontario. Back then
the falls were seven miles downriver, but constant erosion has cut them back
to their present site. The falls are colorfully lit up at night, and many say they're
most beautiful in winter, when the grounds are covered in snow and the waters
turn to ice.

The best views on the American side are from the Prospect Point
Observation Tower (daily; 50￠), and from the area at its base where the water
rushes past; Terrapin Point on Goat Island in the middle of the river has similar
views of Horseshoe Falls. The nineteenth-century tightrope-walker Blondin
crossed the Niagara repeatedly near here, and even carried passengers
across on his back; other suicidal fools over the years have taken the plunge in
barrels. One survivor among the many fatalities was the Englishman Bobby
Leach, who went over in a steel barrel in July 1911 and had to spend the rest
of the year in hospital. That practice has since been banned (though a couple
of maniacs did it in summer 1995 and came away with minor bruises), for
reasons which become self-evident when you approach the towering cascade
on the not-to- be-missed Maid of the Mist boat trip from the foot of the
observation tower (summer Mon-Fri 10am-5pm, Sat & Sun 10am-6pm; $$8.50;
716284-4233). From Goat Island, the Cave of the Winds tour leads down to
the base of the falls by elevator to within almost touching distance of the water
(mid-May to late Oct; $$5.50). A combination pass for these and other
attractions costs $$16. Rainbow helicopter tours (716284-2800) are a more
expensive proposition at $$40 per person for a ten-minute ride. To check the
view out from Niagara Falls, Ontario, it's a twenty-minute walk across the
Rainbow Bridge to the Canadian side (25￠ each way; bring ID, and check
with US Immigration officials before heading across), where you get an
arguably better view, bigger crowds and even more tawdry commercialism.
Driving across is inadvisable: the toll for a car is just 75￠, but parking on the
other side is upwards of $$15.

As you look on in awe, reflect that you're seeing only about half the volume
of water - the rest is diverted to hydroelectric power stations. The full story of
this engineering feat is related at the free Niagara Power Project Visitors
Center in nearby Lewiston (July & Aug daily 9am-6pm; Sept- June daily
10am-5pm; 716285-3211). With your own transportation it's also possible to
trace the inhospitable Niagara Gorge two miles along the dramatic Robert
Moses Parkway to the Whirlpool Rapids, a violent maelstrom swollen by
broken trees and other flotsam.

Ten miles east of Niagara Falls, the town of LOCKPORT takes its name
from the series of locks that raise and lower boats some 65ft at the western
end of the Erie Canal. You can see the impressive flight of locks from the Pine
Street Bridge, or up close on canal boat tours (May - Nov daily at 12.30 & 3pm,
also 10am on Sat; $$9; 716693-3260).

首尔的：
The total area of Seoul is 605.52 square kilometers , or 0.6 percent of the
entire country. The Hangang (River) bisects the city into two parts: northern
part ( Gangbuk ) and southern one (Gangnam). The Gangbuk area totals
297.97 square kilometers (49.2 % ) while Gangnam is 307.55 square
kilometers (50.8 % ).
Seoul has a population of 10,297,004 as of the end of 2005. This accounts
for about a quarter of the total national population. As for the proportion of
male to female excluding foreigners, women (5,173,266) slightly outnumber
men (5,123,738). By district, Nowon-gu has the biggest population of 624,855.
In contrast, Jung-gu has the smallest population of only 134,420. Since Seoul
became the capital of the nation in 1394, the population of Seoul has grown
110 times.
Seoul belongs to the Temperate Zone featuring four distinctive seasons of
spring, summer, autumn and winter. The yearly average temperature of Seoul
is 12.2 degrees Celsius. Temperatures in Seoul show large seasonal variation,
reaching as high as 38.4 degrees Celsius in the summer and dropping as low
as minus 19.2 degrees Celsius in the winter. Influenced by the North Pacific
high-pressure system, Seoul has hot and humid summers with average
temperatures above 20 degrees Celsius from June through September.
