You can't leave America without visiting New York. My brother's hobby, as you know,
is taking pictures. He has a big album(相册)of pictures of the United States and of New
York. I'm sending some of them to you. When you look atthemyou'll understand why
New York is a city of islands. In fact it lies on three big islands: Manhattan, Staten Island
and Long Island. There are many small islands in the city.
The most expensive part of New York is Manhattan. This island is famous for its
skyscrapers(摩天大楼).Broadway is a famous street in New York. It is known for its
theatres and you can see wonderful shows there.
There are many museums and art galleries(画廊)in New York. Pupils often visit museums
and have their art classes there. School children often visit the Bronx Zoo. It is the largest
of the New York City zoos. It opened in 1899 and since then has always been a favorite
place for animal lovers and children.
