纽约市英文介绍
New York City is the most beguiling place there is. You may not think so at first - for the city isadmittedly mad, the epitome in many ways of all that is wrong in modern America. But spendeven a week here and it happens - the pace, the adrenaline take hold, and the shock gives wayto myth. Walking through the city streets is an experience, the buildings like icons to themodern age, and above all to the power of money. Despite all the hype, the movie-imagesentimentalism, Manhattan - the central island and the city's real core - has massive romance:whether it's the flickering lights of the midtown skyscrapers as you speed across theQueensboro bridge, the 4am half-life in Greenwich Village, or just wasting the morning on theStaten Island ferry, you really would have to be made of stone not to be moved by it all.
None of which is to suggest that New York is a conventionally pleasing city. Take a walk inManhattan beside Central Park, notably its east side, past the city's richest apartments and bestmuseums, and keep walking: within a dozen or so blocks you
find yourself in the lower reachesof Spanish Harlem. The shock could hardly be more extreme. The city is constantly like this,with glaring, in-your-face wealth juxtaposed with urban problems - poverty, the drug trade,homelessness - that have a predictably high profile. Things have definitely changed during thenineties, especially in the recent, Mayor Guiliani years. Crime figures are at their lowest in yearsand are still dropping (statistically, New York is now one of the country's safest big cities), andrenewal plans have finally begun to undo years of urban neglect. But for all its new clean-cutimage New York remains a unique place – one you'll
want to return to again and again.

白宫 the White House英文介绍
For almost two hundred years, the White House has stood as a symbol of the Presidency, theUnited States government, and the American people. Its history, and the history of the
nation'scapital, began when President George Washington signed an Act of Congress in December of1790 declaring that the federal government would reside in a district "not exceeding ten milessquare……on the river Potomac." President Washington, together with city planner PierreL'Enfant, chose the site for the new residence, which is now 1600 Pennsylvania
Avenue. Aspreparations began for the new federal city, a petition was held to find a builder of the"President's House." Nine proposals were submitted, and Irish-born architect James Hobanwon a gold medal for his practical and handsome design.
Construction began when the first cornerstone was laid in October of 1792. Although PresidentWashington oversaw the construction of the house, he never lived in it. It was not until 1800,when the White House was nearly pleted, that its first residents, President John Adams andhis wife, Abigail, moved in. Since that time, each President has made his own changes andadditions. The White House is, nt's private home. It is also the only private residence of a headof state that is open to the public, free of charge.
The White House has a unique and fascinating history. It survived a fire at the hands of theBritish in 1814 (during the war of 1812) and another fire in the West Wing in 1929, whileHerbert Hoover was President. Throughout much of Harry S.
Truman's presidency, the interiorof the house, with the exception of the third floor, was pletely gutted and renovated whilethe Trumans lived at Blair House, right across Pennsylvania Avenue. Nonetheless, the exteriorstone walls are those first put in
place when the White House was constructed two centuriesago.
Presidents can express their individual style in how they decorate some parts of the house andin how they receive the public during their stay. Thomas Jefferson held the first Inaugural openhouse in 1805. Many of those who attended the swearing-in ceremony at the U.S. Capitolsimply followed him home, where he greeted them in the Blue Room. President Jefferson alsoopened the house for public tours, and it has remained open, except during wartime, eversince. In addition, he weled visitors to annual receptions on New Year’s Day and on theFourth of July. In 1829, a horde of 20,000 Inaugural callers forced President Andrew Jackson toflee to the safety of a hotel while, on the lawn, aides filled washtubs with orange juice andwhiskey to lure the mob out of the mud-tracked White House.
After Abraham Lincoln's presidency, Inaugural crowds became far too large for the White Houseto acmodate them fortably. However, not until Grover Cleveland's first presidency didthis unsafe practice change. He held a presidential review of the troops from a flag-drapedgrandstand built in front of the White House. This procession evolved into the officialInaugural parade we know today. Receptions on New Year's Day and the Fourth of Julycontinued to be held until the early 1930s.
President Clinton's open house on January 21, 1993 renewed a venerable White HouseInaugural tradition. Two thousand citizens, selected by lottery, were greeted in the DiplomaticReception Room by President and Mrs. Clinton and Vice President and Mrs. Gore.

Chinese Folk Culture Villages
Right next to Splendid China, the folk culture park dazzles with the histories and mysteries of the country's ethnic groups. Scattering around the
180,000-sqm park are 24 villages built in 1:1 ratio, inhabited by real ethnic people who present their traditional arts, customs, languages and cuisines.
Traditional culture performances are held there every day. Like Splendid
China, the park is also heavily forested.

This is a place for kids and families. Usually packed on weekends by

the park's daily dance performance and regular carnival-like events are of
great fun. Beautifully illuminated at night, it is also an impressive city scene
