The Smallest State in America
Rhode Island may be the smallest state in America,
but it has an exciting history.
A colonist named Roger Williams
started the first permanent settlement there in 1636.
Like other early Americans,
he had come to America to seek religious freedom.
But Williams could not practice his religion in Massachusetts,
so he left and started a settlement he called Providence
Williams and his fellows
acquired land from the American Indians in the areas,and the colony grew rapidly.
The city Williams founded,Providence,
is now the capital of Rhode Island and the state's largest city.
When Williams lived there,Providence was a farming town.
During the 18th century,it was a well-known shipping center.
Today the city has a busy port and many different industries
It is also the home of Brown University, one of the nation's oldest colleges.
Rhode Island is a popular vacation area for Americans,
particularly New Englanders.
One well-known summer resort is Newport.
Newport is famous for its beaches and mansions.
Many wealthy fami- lies built summer homes in Newport in the 19th century.
Visitors today to Newport can tour many of these elegant mansions
and can enjoy the beach and many water activities.
Another very popular vacation spot in Rhode Island is Block Island.
The Island,about nine miles south of the mainland,
is famous for its beautiful scenery and excellent fishing.

美國小的州
羅德島也許是美國小的州,
但它有一段很有意思的歷史。
一個叫羅杰.威廉斯的殖民開拓者
于1636年在這里建立了第一個永久性殖民地。
同其他早期移民一樣,
他踏上美國是為了尋求宗教自由。
然而他無法在馬薩諸塞州從事宗教活動,
只得離開那里,建立了一個他命名為普羅威登斯的殖民地。
威廉斯和他的追隨者
從當(dāng)?shù)氐拿乐抻〉诎踩耸种蝎@得了土地,致使殖民地迅速發(fā)展起來。
威廉斯創(chuàng)建的普羅威登斯城
如今是羅德島的首府,也是該州大的城市。
而威廉斯在世時,普羅威登斯還是一座以農(nóng)業(yè)為主的小鎮(zhèn)
18世紀(jì)時,它逐漸發(fā)展成為聞名遐邇的航運中心。
今天,此城擁有一座繁忙的港口和諸多工業(yè)。
它還是美國古老的高等學(xué)府之一的布朗大學(xué)的所在地。
羅德島還是美國人愛的度假之地,
尤其對新英格蘭人來說更是如此。
那里的新港是頗負(fù)盛名的避暑勝地。
以其沙灘和富麗堂皇的別墅而著稱。
19世紀(jì)時,許多人錢人在新港建造了不少夏季別墅。
如今去新港度假的人可以參觀這些富麗堂皇的別墅，
并享受著那里的沙灘和各種各樣的水上運動。
羅德島另一個十分著名的度假點是布洛克島。
這座島嶼位于美國大陸以南九公里處，
以美麗如畫的風(fēng)景和繁榮的漁業(yè)而享譽美國。

Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day is named for Saint Valentine,
an early Christian churchman who reportedly helped young lovers.
Valentine was executed for his Christian beliefs
on February 14 more than 1700 years ago,
but the day that has his name is even earlier than that.
More than 2000 years ago,the ancient Romans celebrated a holiday for lovers.
As part of the celebration,
girls wrote their names on pieces of paper and put them in a large container
Boys reached into the container and pulled one out.
The girl whose name was written on the paper
became his lover of sweetheart for a year.
Lovers still put their names on pieces of paper
and send each other Valentine's Day cards that tell of their love.
Sometimes they send gifts,like flowers or chocolate candy.
Americans usually send these gifts and cards through the mail system.
But some use another way to send this message.
They have it printed in a newspaper.The cost is usually a few dollars.
Some of these messages are simple and short:
"Jane,I love you very much.Peter."
Others say more.This one for example:"Dan Roses are red, violets are blue.
I hope you love me as much as I love you.Forever,Mary."
Most of the news- papers that print such messages are local,
but one,USA Today,
is sold throughout the United States and 90 other countries as well.
This means someone can send a Valentine messages to a lover
in far away city or town almost anywhere in the world.
These massages cost$80 and more.
An employee of the USA Today
says readers can have a small heart or rose
printed along with their messages nowadays.
Will this kind of Valentine's Day message reach the one you love?
Well,just make sure he or she reads the newspaper.
【篇四】譯文：
情人節(jié)
瓦倫丁節(jié)(情人節(jié))是為紀(jì)念圣.瓦倫丁而命名的。
瓦倫丁是早期的一位基 督教教士,傳說曾經(jīng)幫助過年輕的情侶們。
瓦倫丁因信仰基 督教被處死，
于1700多年前的2月14日。
但是情人節(jié)在他處死之前就以他的名字命名了。
兩千多年前,古羅馬人為情侶們規(guī)定了一個節(jié)日。
那天有一個活動是，
姑娘們把她們的名字寫在紙片上,然后放在一個大匣子里。
小伙子從匣子里摸出一張紙片，
名字寫在那張紙上的姑娘，
在一年內(nèi)就是他的情人。
情人們至今仍將他們的名字寫在紙片上，
還相互寄送表達愛情的情人節(jié)卡片。
有時還寄贈禮物,如鮮花和巧克力糖片。
美國人通過郵政系統(tǒng)寄送這些禮物和卡片，
但有些人也用另一種方式傳達他們的愛意。
他們把表達愛意的詞句登在報紙上,費用只需幾美元。
有些詞語很簡短,如:
"簡,我非常愛你。彼得。"
有些則說得多些.例如:"丹,玫瑰是紅的,紫羅蘭是藍的,
但愿你愛我像我愛你一樣.永遠(yuǎn)愛你的瑪麗。"
登載這些愛情寄語的大多是當(dāng)?shù)貓蠹垼?BR> 但是一份叫<今日美國>的報紙
在美國各地及其他90個國家發(fā)行。
這意味著人們可以在情人節(jié)將愛情寄語傳到情人那里，
傳到世界上任何一個遙遠(yuǎn)城鎮(zhèn)。
而費用需要80美元或更多。
<今日美國>的一個雇員
說,現(xiàn)在讀者可以把一個小小的紅心和玫瑰，
印在愛情寄語旁。
你所鐘愛的人能收到這樣的愛情寄語嗎?
噢，你得肯定他或她是看這份報紙的。
