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 Fré

dé

ric

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.

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.

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 714/999-4565.
