new york
1. new york is the largest city in the united states. it is situated in the southern part of new york state, at the mouth of the hudson river. in 1609, henry hudson, who worked for the dutch east india company, sailed up the river that now bears his name and went as far as albany. five years later, a per- manent settlement was established at what is now new york, but at that time it was called new amsterdam by the dutch governors. in 1664, great britain's duke of york seized settlement from the dutch. the colony was named in honor of the duke. in 1898, greater new york included the following 5 boroughs: manhattan (new york country); brooklyn (king's country); the bronx (bronx country); queen's (queen's country); staten island (richmond country).
2. today, the big apple is a major world capital, and a world leader in finance, the arts and communications. new york is known as a «melting pot», because people of different races and nationalities make up its population of more than 7 million. about 13 of every 100 people in new york were born in another country. more than 80 languages are spoken throughout the neighbor- hoods and streets of the city. there are places where the english language is hardly ever heard.
3. you can cross continents within the city. if you wish to go from china to italy, you only have to cross canal street. it is also just as easy to go from puerto rico to israel. there are more irish and italians in new york than in any other city outside ireland and italy. more than 80,000 chinese-americans live in chinatown in manhattan. chinatown looks more like hong kong than new york. there is a district in brighton beach - renamed little odessa by its russia residents - where you forget that you are in new york. you could be on the black sea coast. harlem is often called the black capital of the country.
4. signs of immigrations from all over the world can still be found in the names of streets and buildings. new york smells the whole world kitchen. ital- ian, greek, korean, chinese, russian, mexican, spanish, african cuisines are in the fierce culinary competition.
5. there is always something to celebrate in new york: the chinese new year in january, with its wonderful fireworks and dragon parade; san-gennaro's day in september, when the whole of little italy is out in the streets dancing; easter parade on fifth avenue; the new year's eve celebrations in times square; harlem day in sometimes celebrations in small quarters are more interesting than the big fifth avenue parades because they offer a variety of music, food and drink and the chance to meet people.
