Let's Visit New York.
New York, New York, the city is so nice, they named it twice. The words were ud to describe New York when it was by far the largest, richest and most developed city in the US. Yew York still remains the largest and most famous city in the US today, but some of its nice reputation has fallen over the past thirty years with stories of (wrappon---->rampant) crime making headlines around the world. How true are the stories? Is New York still a nice place to visit? If so, what can a tourist do in New York? Let's take a clor
look at the America's premier city.
This paragraph tells us what you can expect to learn in today's article. We have all heard of New York, of cour, and most people know that it is the largest city in the US, but some people have also heard that it has a kind of bad name--maybe a dangerous city to visit. Well, is it? We'll find out when we take a clor look at New York in today's article.
本讲座Pan将不再记录中文的讲解部分。
/to make headlines,
/If you do something which makes headlines, you do something which makes the news. People start writing about it or put it on TV or here on the radio. So if something is very exciting or important, we say that it makes headlines.
/ Wow, that's really gross! That's disgusting!
/
卫玠 Peter's strange behavior made headlines.
"Premier" has a couple of meanings. Here it refers as an adjective, something which is the best or the most important. But a Premier is a political position at or near the head of a government.
Sometimes it means "Prime Minister".
/ Yeah, it depends on the country. The "Premier" is a position which in some countries as President and in other countries is Prime Minister.
/But obviously here in the article, the word is ud as an adjective, meaning "the best", the "number one" city.
First, as personal and social curity are always upmost in the minds of travelers, just how dangerous a city is New York. Despite the glaring headlines, New York located in the North Eastern US, is one of the safest cities in the US. In fact, New York State, which includs New York city, thus, "New York New York, the city is so nice, they named it twice",
ranks below other big population states like California in both violent crime of much concern to the tourists and property crime. Other major cities have higher crime rates, too. Thus, the foreign travelers to New York city can feel more cure here than in most other large metropolitan area of the US.
Now in this paragraph, we answered the question which we looked at in the first paragraph, how true are the stories. The stories about New York's (Wapponed---rampant) crime, are they true? Or maybe each headline is true, but when we take look at the crime rate, how many crimes per population per year? We found that New York city is not a dangerous city compared to most other American cities. California, Texis, (应该是德克萨斯 Texas)Florida, Chicago, ..big cites and big states have much higher crime rates than New York or New York state. In fact the North Eastern US, 东北,this is the safest region of the US.
10:15
Here, "as personal and social curity are always upmost in the minds of travelers," if something is always upmost in one's mind,
/yes?
/ What does it mean then?
/ Although I am living alone here in Taiwan, my family back in New York is always upmost in my mind.
/They play the most important role in my life.
/That's right.
/To be upmost in one's mind 的用法。
Then what is property crime?
/ Good question. We have the "violent crime" and "property crime". "Violent crime" of cour would be somebody attacking you on the street or in your hotel room, hurting you physically. "Property crime" would be things like theft, somebody steeling from you or mugging, using a knife or a gun to rob you on the street, or maybe steel your car. Tho t
hree, theft, mugging and car theft, are property crimes.
mug: 被人用刀,棒子,枪等抢劫。另一意思是杯子。大杯。
mugging, An assault upon a person especially with the intent to rob.
行凶抢劫对人身的袭击,尤指带有抢劫的倾向性
I was mugged.
Ok, let's get ready for the third paragraph, as we finish page one and go to page two.

Besides safety, why do more foreigners visit New York than any other American cities? The answer lies in the character of New York itlf. No other city in the worlk is more cosmopolitan. A walk through its hundreds of residential neighborhoods is like walking ar
ound the world itlf. Place names like China Town and Little Italy can be found on any map of New York. But smaller ethnic neighborhoods also abound. Also, all the groups sponsor annual or asonal festivals so that nearly every week, one or more of the peoples will share their cultural experiences and food with other New Yorkers.
So in this paragraph, we learned something about the character or nature of New York as a city. The key word here of cour is, cosmopolitan, this means that the city is made up of many many different groups of people all living together. China Town, everybody's heard of that, Little Italy is also very famous. But did you know that there are people from Egypt, and Morocco and (Branzeo 国名) and Korea living in New York, too? You can find just about any group of people living there, and this gives New York a very rich cultural experience.
/ Yeah, we can also say, this city is something like a window on the world.
/Great expression, Peter. A window on the world. If you want to e what the world is really like, you don't have to go around the world, you can just walk through New York.
/
New York, or New York city in this ca, is a window on the world. 注意介词用on.
abound in,
This river abounds in fish. 这河里有丰富的鱼,有大量的鱼。盛产鱼。
abound in
盛产, 富于; 充满, 多
abound with
盛产, 富于; 充满, 多
Becau of this unsurpasd (acnick-->ethnic) diversity, the restaurant goer will feel that he has died and gone to heaven while in New York. There's hardly a cuisine on the planet that is not reprented here. Even better, many of the exotic restaurants are reasonably priced. One is never far from a restaurant in New York, there're thousands of Chine restaurants alone.
This paragraph gives us another example of how cosmopolitan New York is, and really what this word means. Becau now we can talk about ethnic diversity, many different groups of people living together in one big city, and we especially talked about the cuisine, which are available in New York, this word means the cooking styles of a particular country or region in a country. China, for example, is very famous for its cuisines, becau there are many different kinds of cooking that we can find in China. In China Town and throughout New York, there are thousands of Chine restaurants alone. Of cour there're thousands of other kinds of restaurants there, too.
/ What is your favorite restaurant and where is it?
/ Let's e, well, in China Town itlf, you can get a lot of good Cantone cooking. But I'll tell you. I think it's true of any country if you really want the the very best food of the country, you really have to go back to the home country itlf. I hate to this, but the Chine food in New York or any other American city, I guess we can't really expect it to be as good as back in the home country, and that's unfortunately true of New York, too.

/
A farm in New York? Doesn't sound possible? After we hear about all of the world-famous attractions in the city, most people think of Manhattan, that is the downtown district when they think of New York, but there're other boroughs or districts. Bronx, Queens, and Brooklyn and State Island.
/ Mmm, the last word, "farm",
I was raid on that farm,
If somebody jokingly says,
"I was raid on that funny farm, " that exactly means 精神病院. _______ 这个在中级讲座中也提到过。
/ That's right. Who let you out?

拜访纽约
过去人们总是用这些字眼来描述纽约,当时她是美国最大,最富有和最繁华的城市,今天纽约仍然是美国最大和最有名的城市,但是过去30年来,由于犯罪猖獗的报道在世界各地成为头条新闻,使得她的一些“好”名声直线下降。这些报道究竟真相如何?纽约仍是观光的“好”地方吗?如果是的话,观光客在纽约能做什么呢?咱们这就来仔细地探访一下这个美国首屈一指的城市吧。
首先,个人和社会安全向来是游客心中最关切的事,那么纽约到底有多“危险”呢?尽管有
那么多触目惊心的头条新闻,位于美国东北部的纽约仍是美国最安全的城市之一。事实上,纽约州(包括纽约市棗于是有“纽约州的纽约市,这城市好得人们称呼它两次”)在暴力犯罪(这是观光客最关心的)和财物犯罪上的排名比其它人口众多的州棗如加州,还来得低。其他主要城市的犯罪率也比它高。因此,比起大部分其它的美国都会区,来纽约的外国游客在此地能够觉得比较安全。
除了安全之外,到纽约的外国人为何比到美国任何其它城市多呢?答案在于纽约本身的特色。世界上没有任何一个比它更国际化。走一趟它数以百计的住宅区就象走过全世界一样。诸如“中国城”和“小意大利”等地名在纽约市的任何地图上都找得到,但较小的种族社区也有很多。此外,所有这些族群团体每年或每季都要会赞助举行庆典活动,因此几乎每个礼拜都会有一个或多个民族和其它纽约人共同分享他们的文化经验(和食物)。
由于这种无与伦比的种族多样性,经常上餐厅的人到了纽约会觉得仿佛死后上了天堂一般。地球上几乎没有一道菜在这里找不到。更棒的是,许多这些异国风味的餐厅消费价格都很公道。在纽约到处都是餐厅,而光是中国餐厅就有几千家之多。
除了国际闻名的观光胜地棗大部分在曼哈顿区棗例如自由女神像、由两座110层大楼组成的世贸中心、华尔街、联合国总部和百老汇等,还有其他许多有趣的地方等着好奇的游客去
参观。位于东北部布朗克斯区的布朗克斯动物园是世界上最棒的动物园之一。皇后区则有各个不同种族的住宅区。布鲁克林区则包含植物园、科尼岛(一座有游乐场的海滩)和约翰·肯尼迪国际机场。最后还有听坦登岛,这最小的行政区仍保有纽约市往昔的风貌,包括一座农场在内!
对爱好文化的人来说,纽约的博物馆比其他任何城市都多,但有些并非国际知名的。不管是参观历史、科技、种族或是学术博物馆所花的时间都是很值得。纽约的艺术、音乐、舞蹈和流行服饰圈对年轻人和专业人士同样都是心所向往之处。有关纽约市的详细资讯和纽约州的观光旅游可在下列网址找到:WWW.ILOVENY.STATE.NY.SU。 属狗的最佳婚配而人已经在美国或加拿大的游客则可打免费电话,号码是1-800-CALL-NYS。
不论你的兴趣为何,只要是在都市环境中可以找到的,在纽约就一定找得到。它的800万市民来处全球各个角落,因为爱上这个要拼才会赢的城市而相聚在一起。正如那儿的当地人所说:“当然,居住在纽约你必须有点疯狂,但除非发疯了,否则你不会搬到其他任何地方去住!?
这世界因为你的存在而更精彩! Your existence makes the world more wonderful!
