Visitors to the United States are often surprised to learn the great distance from the east coast to the west coast. The continental United States stretches 4,500 kilometers from the Atlantic Ocean on the east to the Pacific Ocean on the west. It borders Canada on the North,and reaches south to Mexico and the Gulf of Mexico. A fast train,travelling 96 kilometers an hour, takes more than 48 hours to cross the country. A jet plane crosses the continental United States from east to west in about five hours.

Including the states of Alaska and Hawaii,which are not seen in this map of the continental United States, the country covers an area of 9,363,123 square kilometers. Of the fifty states of the country Alaska is the largest in area,and Hawaii is the newest. The former borders on northwestern Canada: the latter lies in the Pacific.

My dream is to study abroad in the future. I am always that kind of life can come true soon. But, before I realize my dream, I have to do some preparation. I think the most important thing I need to do first is to adapt the life there.

I need to learn as much the cultural conflicts as possible to make my oversea life become easier.

When the founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerbergs daughter was born, he

announced a general decision and surprised the world. Mark told media that he

would donate 99 percent of his fortune to the charity organizations. Some people

wonder why he did not save the heritage for his offspring. In fact, in western

countries, for some rich people, they dont trend to leave much fortune for

their kids, instead, they use the money to educate their children and cultivate

them to be the wise persons. The rich people leave the invisible fortune, which

is their fame. Their children can have more chances to do their business or

receive better education with their family names. The wise rich men know the

best way to educate their offspring. They teach skills and the way of thinking,

which values everything.

前几天，我们在课堂上学了《普罗米修斯的故事》和《燧氏钻木取火》，我对东西方文化也有了新的看法。

《普罗米修斯的故事》讲的是普罗米修斯同情人类，为人类盗取了天火，结果被宙斯惩罚。《燧氏钻木取火》讲的是一个叫燧氏的年轻人在天神伏羲的指引下找到了钻木取火的办法。

他们有着相同点和不同点，他们的相同点是：《普罗米修斯的故事》中普罗米修斯发现人们住在山洞里饥寒交迫；人们被野兽捕食，甚至彼此猎食——人们实在是一切生物中最可怜的了。而《燧氏钻木取火》中大神伏羲想让人知道火的用处。从这里可以看出火的起源都是人类不知道怎么用火、也不知道火是什么时候开始的。所以天神同情人类、可怜人类，想帮助人类。

他们的不同点一：《普罗米修斯的故事》中普罗米修斯他把几个冷得发抖的人从山洞中叫出来，为他们生了火，叫他们用火取暖的方法。从这里可以看出普罗米修斯是直接把火种给了人类。而《燧氏钻木取火》中伏羲大展神通，在山林中降下了一场雷雨，雷电劈在树木上，树木燃烧起来，很快就变成了熊熊大火。从这里看出伏羲是想让人类自己去发现这种叫火的东西。

第二个不同点：西方神话中的西方天神有的是自私、有的是博爱的。宙斯就是自私自利的，而普罗米修斯就是博爱的。在普罗米修斯向宙斯索要火种时，宙斯冷酷无情地说不给，所以在宙斯不同意后，普罗米修斯为了让人类生活条件变好，只好去盗取火种。但东方文化中，东方天神是智慧的，伏羲大神而是教会人们如何得到火种。《燧氏钻木取火》中的燧氏学会了取火的方法，他找来各种树枝，耐心地用不同的树枝进行摩擦。终于树枝上冒烟了，然后钻出火了。这样人类就找到了取火的方法——钻木取火。

从这里可以看出东方是智慧的，什么事都是要自己来想办法的。而西方是自私的、博爱的，什么事都是神来为你受罚。所以东方更相信人的力量，而西方是更崇尚神的力量。

近了，近了，当游轮停靠在自由岛边时，法国1876年赠送给美国独立100周年的礼物自由女神像伫立在我们面前。雕塑家巴托尔迪历时10年完成的女神雕塑，身着古希腊风格的服装，左手捧着《独立宣言》，右手高举着火炬，脚下则是打碎的镣铐。在自由女神像周边，海鸥丝毫不畏惧游客，时而拍打着翅膀从游客头上飞过，时而盘旋着落在游人身边。 和自由女神像挥手再见，美国女诗人埃玛娜莎罗其的诗歌《新巨人》回荡在耳畔：把这些无家可归的/饱受颠沛的人们/一起交给我/我站在金门口/高举自由的灯火。当夜幕降临时，神像基座的灯光由下往上照射，青色的雕像独自站在哈德逊河口的自由岛上。

船很快又停靠在爱丽丝岛边。19世纪末、20世纪，每一位要入境美国新大陆的移民，都必经爱丽丝岛。尤其是在1892年至1954年的移民潮期间，超过1200万移民抵达此地，每天都有5000人在这个移民大厅等待移民官的询问。寻找自由与机会的移民们满怀希望而来，也有可能无法通过身体健康检疫被遣返，对许多人来说，他们眼里这座希望之岛，有时也是眼泪之岛。

爱丽丝岛移民历史博物馆，To New York的指示牌隐约可见。空荡的大厅里插着两面美国国旗，许多移民的照片悬挂在墙上。坐在椅子上随手翻看桌上塑封好的写满密密麻麻移民名字的本子，似乎每一个人都微不足道，但于他们个人而言，当年的移民经历，也许意味着一生的荣辱成败。

坐上最后一班返回的游船，船上的零售店开始清理当天卖不出去的熟食，帅气的小伙利索地包装好热狗、甜甜圈，微笑着示意乘客们可以随意自取。大部分游客和我一样，面对突如其来的免费食物，只是微笑着婉言谢绝，眼神中写满了怀疑。当最后几份食物被游客拿走并吃完后，我们才相信，那些热狗真是免费的。想到这是在美国，在自由岛和爱丽丝岛的旁边，我在想，一个人的气质是由内而外的；而一代人的精神风貌，来源于一个民族长期的积淀。

This afternoon a young American friend called Mike came to our school. He visited our lab, library and school factory. At five oclock he had a free talk with some of my classmates. I was lucky to be one of them.

Mike spoke English slowly and carefully, so we could understand what he said. We talked about our English study for about an hour. Before he left our school, I asked him in English, "What do you think of our school?" He answered with a smile, "Oh, its wonderful!"

This is the first time for me to talk with a foreigner in English. English is really userful.

今天下午一位叫迈克的美国朋友来到了我校。他参观了我们的实验室、图书馆和校办工厂。在5点钟他和我班的一些同学座谈，我有幸称为其中的一名。

迈克的英语讲得很慢，很认真，所以我们能听懂他说的话。关于英语学习情况我们聊了大约一个小时。在他离校之前，我用英语问他：“你认为我们学校怎么样？”他面带微笑回答：“好极了！”

这是我第一次用英语同老外谈话，英语真的挺有用。
