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.
