    Good morning! I want to welcome you to New York City, the Big Apple, an exciting city of

    Skyscrapers(摩天大楼). I'm Jack Marino, and I'll give you a tour of the city. After our tour, you will take the ferry(渡船) to the Statue of Liberty, which stands out in New York Harbor.

    As you see, Central Park is a very large park, right in the middle of all the tall buildings. Look at all the people walking in the park, bicycling, jogging(慢跑), and picnicking on the grass. And there is a lake with many small boats.

    Now we are going down Fifth Avenue. New Yorkers love to walk along Fifth Avenue and look in the store windows. There are clothing stores with beautiful dresses and suits, and jewelry(珠宝) stores with diamonds and gold.

    Here we are on Broadway, where you can see plays and musicals. There are many famous theaters right here. When you visit New York, you must go and see a play or a musical.

    Now we are going by the Empire State Building(帝国大厦). From the 102nd floor you can see all up and down the island of Manhattan. It is a wonderful way to see the city.

    Here is Wall Street, the money center of the United States. These streets are the heart of American business. The people going along the streets look very small with such tall buildings on both sides.

    And there's the ferry that will take you to the Statue of Liberty. I hope you enjoy seeing New York City with Tour USA.
