乔治的日记(6月12日～14日) 6月12日

星期一

清晨乘公共汽车抵达，直赴旅馆，放下行李，洗澡、刮脸，即去观光。先是乘缆车，在山顶览胜，观看旧金山湾及整个城市。缆车系统建于1873年，是由安德鲁·哈利迪发明的，他试图找到一种比马拉轨道车更好的交通方式。他曾经看到过一次可怕的交通事故：由于一辆马拉轨道车刹车失灵，驾车者对局面失去控制，车子和马一起从山上滑了下去，很明显这让他受到了极大的震惊。

午餐是在渔人码头吃的，吃得很晚。意大利渔民于19世纪末首先来到旧金山，并且在这儿开始了捕鱼业。如今这儿是一个旅游区了，有许多商店、海鲜馆和面包房。这也是乘船去天使岛和海湾其他地方的渡口。

在渔人码头看了这么多东西，我精疲力竭，什么也不想干了。今晚要早点睡觉！

星期二

同饭店里的一对夫妻(彼得和泰莉)作伴，一起租了一辆小汽车，一整天驱车游览城市。有一条专为旅游者选定的有趣的驾车游活动。车身上有蓝白两色相间的标记，上面有海鸥以表示要去的路线。这是一次往返79公里的旅行，它涵盖了所有著名的旅游景点。途中多次停车，以便从不同角度欣赏城市风景并摄影。现在确实对城市的面貌有了一个很好的了解。

晚上，跟彼得和泰莉一起去中国城。中国移民于19世纪50年代定居在这个地区。建筑物前面装饰得就像中国南部地区的古建筑一样。在这儿看到了一些有趣的寺庙，很多的集贸市场和许多餐馆，还有美术馆和一个博物馆。博物馆里有关于中国移民史的文件、照片和各种各样的物品，但是晚上关门了。打算白天再来。吃了一顿可口的饭菜，然后步行下山回到旅馆。

星期三

早晨，从旧金山湾的港口乘轮渡去天使岛，路上观赏了金门大桥。从1882年至1940年，天使岛成为一个著名的移民站，许多中国人在那儿申请美国居住权。移民站的房间又小又冷又潮湿，一些房间甚至没有光，但是移民们没有其他去处。悲惨的境遇对他们来说似乎是一种惩罚而谈不上公平和自由。他们在墙上写诗，抒发孤独的情感，痛惜以前在中国的生活。1940年民政部门改革了制度，使得更多的中国人能够得到机会定居美国。这引起我的感慨，使我对今天的生活感到欣慰。

二、勤练高考题型，多练自能生巧Ⅰ.阅读理解

In eighteen seventy­seven, the American government decided to move the Nez Perce Indians from their land. The government had set up a reservation for them in Idaho. Chief Joseph did not want to leave the land. It was holy ground. It contained the bones of his father and mother. But, like his father in earlier times, Chief Joseph knew it would be hopeless to stay and defend the land. There were too few Indians to win a war against the white men. And so in June of eighteen seventy­seven, the Nez Perce left their home in the Wallowa Valley. They left quickly. They were able to take only a small part of what they owned, and just a few cattle and Appaloosa horses. When the Indians reached the Snake River, the water was very deep and ran very fast with melted snow from the mountains. Chief Joseph and his people made boats from sticks and dried animal skins to cross the river. While the Indians were busy, a group of white men came and stole some of the cattle waiting at the edge of the river. The other chiefs demanded that Joseph call a meeting. Two of the chiefs, White Bird and Toohoolhoolzote, spoke for War, but Joseph held different opinion. Some of the young men in White Bird's group were very angry.
