A City of the World--New York
Mot people imagine New York to be a city of sky scrapers. Perhaps too, they associate the city with the Wold Trade Center, the statue of Liberty, Fifth Avenue, Times Square, the United Nations, and Central Park and so on. Except for the Statue of Liberty all these places are in one part of the city, that is, Manhattan, which seems to be an island of skyscrapers.
The city is also a place where the headquarters of the United Nations is located. People from all over the world live in the citysand work at the United Nations. The translator working at the UN must speak one of the five official languages: English, French, Spanish, Russian and Chinese.
The World Trade Center is a "United Nations of Com merce"along Hudson River. The towers of the World Trade Center are 405 meters high, and each has 110 floors. Together the two towers have 48 600 windows. Three of the 102 elevators in each tower can take you from the first to the ll0th floor in one minute. Besides, there are international banks, government offices, transportation companies, restaurants and import and export businesses inside the twin towers. The lob by of a building is usually on the ground floor, but at the World Trade Center there are lobbies in the sky!
[点评]
纽约市是世界上最著名的城市之一。作者在第一段里介绍了纽约的 名胜景区,第一段讲述了联合国总部的情况,第二段描述了世界贸易中心,使读者对纽约有了清晰的印象。
[参考译文]
世界之城——纽约
大部分人把纽约市想像成一座挤满摩天大楼的城市。也许他们还将这座城市与世界贸易中心,自由女神像,第五大道,时代广场,联合国,中央公园等等联系在一起。除了自由女神像外,其他地方都集中在这座城市的一块叫做曼哈顿的区域。它就像是一座满是摩天大楼的岛屿。
这座城源亩市也是联合国总部的所在地。来自世界各国的外交人员住在这里,在联合国上班。在联合国工作的译员必须会讲联合国五种正式语言中的一种。这五种语言是英语、法语、西班牙语、俄语和汉语。
世界贸易虚绝中心是沿着哈得逊河的“商业联合国”。它的双塔高405米,每座塔有110层。两座塔共有48 600架窗户。每座塔里102个升降电梯中的3个可以在一分钟之内将你从一层送到110层去。另外,国际银行,政府办事机构,运输公司,餐馆,进出口贸易公司等都设立在双塔之内。一般来说,大楼的大厅在底层,而在世界贸易中心,空中差裂姿也有大厅!

The City of New York, most often called New York City, is the most populous city in the United States, in a metropolitan area that ranks among the world's most-populous urban areas. It is a leading global city, exerting a powerful influence over worldwide commerce, finance, culture, and entertainment. The city is also an important center for international affairs, hosting the United Nations headquarters.

Located on the Atlantic coast of the Northeastern United States, the city consists of five distinct boroughs: The Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. It is the most densely populated major city in the United States, with an estimated 8,274,527 people[1] occupying just under 305 square miles (790 km2).[2][3][4][5][6] The New York metropolitan area's population is also the nation's highest, estimated at 19,750,000 people over 6,720 square miles (17,400 km2) in three states.[7]

New York is largely unique among American cities for its high use of mass transit, and the overall density and diversity of its population. In 2005, nearly 170 languages were spoken in the city and 36% of its population was born outside the United States.[8][9] The city is sometimes referred to as "The City That Never Sleeps" due to its extensive 24-hour subway system and constant bustling of traffic and people, while other nicknames include Gotham and the Big Apple.[10][11]

Founded as a commercial trading post by the Dutch in 1624, it served as the capital of the United States from 1785 until 1790,[12] and has been the nation's largest city since 1790. The Statue of Liberty greeted millions of immigrants as they came to America in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Wall Street, in Lower Manhattan, has been a dominant global financial center since World War II and is home to the New York Stock Exchange. Today, the city has many renowned landmarks and neighborhoods that are world famous. The city has been home to several of the tallest buildings in the world, including the Empire State Building and the twin towers of the former World Trade Center.

New York is the birthplace of many cultural movements, including the Harlem Renaissance in literature and visual art, abstract expressionism (also known as the New York School) in painting, and hip hop,[13] punk,[14] salsa, disco and Tin Pan Alley in music. It is also the home of Broadway theater.
