Welcome to New York City, the Big Apple. It is one of the most exciting cities in the United States. I am Jack Marino, your guide in New York. As you see, Central Park is a very large park, right in the middle of all the tall buildings. Look at all the people who are walking, bicycling, and picnicking in the park. It is really a quiet and relaxing place in New York. Now we are going down Fifth Avenue. New Yorkers love to walk along Fifth Avenue and look in the store windows. There are clothes stores with beautiful dresses and suits, and jewelry(珠宝) stores with diamonds (钻石) and gold. Here we are on Broadway(百老汇), where you can see plays and musicals（音乐喜剧）. When we say Broadway, we don't mean one single theater. Actually, it is an area with many famous theaters. When you visit New York you must go and see a play or a musical at Broadway. Now we are going by the Empire State Building. From the 102nd floor you can see all up and down the island of Manhattan. It is a wonderful way to see the city. Here is Wall Street, the money center of the United States. These streets are the heart of American business. The people going along the street look very small with such tall buildings on both sides. And there's the ferry that will take you to the Statue of Liberty(自由女神像), which is in New York Harbor（纽约港）. I hope you enjoy New York.

至今历史 840年Let’s know more about the tower:比萨斜塔（意大利语：Torre pendente di Pisa或Torre di Pisa，英语：Leaning Tower of Pisa）是意大利比萨城大教堂的独立式钟楼，于意大利托斯卡纳省比萨城北面的奇迹广场上。广场的大片草坪上散布着一组宗教建筑，它们是大教堂（建造于1063年—13世纪）、洗礼堂（建造于1153年—14世纪）、钟楼（即比萨斜塔）和墓园（建造于1174年），它们的外墙面均为乳白色大理石砌成，各自相对独立但又形成统一罗马式建筑风格。比萨斜塔位于比萨大教堂的后面。[1]
比萨斜塔从地基到塔顶高58.36米，从地面到塔顶高55米，钟楼墙体在地面上的宽度是4.09米，在塔顶宽2.48米，总重约14453吨，重心在地基上方22.6米处。圆形地基面积为285平方米，对地面的平均压强为497千帕。倾斜约10%，即5.5度，偏离地基外沿2.3米，顶层突出4.5米。1173年首次发现倾斜Let’s know more about the tower:1 Why is the Tower of Pisa strange?

Then answer the questions.Reading:Reading: Listen and repeat.The Tower of Pisa is one of the most beautiful bell towers in Italy. It is not only beautiful, but also strange-----it leans to one side. Today, it is known as “the Leaning Tower of Pisa”.
The building of the tower began in 1173. It took nearly 200 years to complete. In 1178, when the building got to the third floor, it started to lean. The builders tried to make the tower straight again when they built the upper floors, but failed.
Over the years, the tower has continued to lean further. Experts have done a lot of studies and tried to ‘rescue’ the tower. In 1990, it was closed to the public for safety reasons. After a lot of effort, it reopened in 2001. And hopefully, it will be safe at least for the next 300 years. Language pointsIt is not only beautiful, but also strange
not only…but also … 不但…而且…，注意以下用法：
■主要用于连接两个对等的成分；若连接两个成分作主语，其后谓语动词与靠近的主语保持一致。如： She likes not only music but also sport. 她不但喜欢音乐而且喜欢运动。 Not only the students but also their teacher is enjoying the film.
不仅学生们在欣赏这部影片，他们的老师也在欣赏这部影片。
■not only…but also…中的also通常可以省略，或换成too, as well（要置于句末）。如： He not only washed the car, but polished it too [as well].
他不仅冲洗汽车，而且还擦拭了它。 Language points 有时甚至连 but also 一并省略掉。如： She not only entered the competition—she actually won it!
她不但参加了竞赛——而且居然获胜了！
■为了强调，可将not only置于句首，此时其后的句子通常要用部分倒装的形式。如： Not only has she been late three times, she has also done no work.
她不仅仅迟到了3次，她还没干一点活。 Not only do they need clothing, but they are also short of water.
他们不但需要衣服，而且还缺水。 Language points2. The builders tried to make the tower straight again …
try可以做名词,也可以做动词.
做名词常用词组是have a try,“试一试”.
做动词的用法有两个：
■ try doing sth.尝试做某事（过程不难,强调结果） eg.Nobody answers the front door.Let's try knocking the back door. 没人应前门,我们试试敲后门.（强调看房子里有没有人这一结果）
■ try to do sth.努力尝试做某事（强调努力尝试的过程,成功与否不知） eg.Let's try to work out this maths problem. 让我们试试解开这道数学题.（强调努力解题这个过程）Language points3. the tower has continued to lean further.
■表示继续做某事，其后既可接动名词也可接不定式，且意义相同。如：
They continued to meet?[meeting]?daily.?他们继续每天都见面。
He continued to write?[writing]?while in hospital.?他住院时他继续写作。
■表示继续维持某一情况时，其后可直接跟名词作宾语，也可先接介词with?再接宾语。如：
We will continue?(with)?the payments for another year.?我们这样的报酬还要维持1年。
■按传统语法，表示中断以后再继续，其后通常只能是story, speech, journey, strike?这样的名词，而不能接不定式或动名词，但现代英语已打破此规则。如：
We continued working?[to work]?after the break.?休息后我们继续工作。Key phrases 重点词组 not only ---but also---
be known as
get to
try to
continue to
at least
不但…而且…
作为…

试图，努力
继续
