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，空中也有大厅!
