Ⅱ 美国地理位置介绍
美国地理概况 地形与河流
美国的地形特点是东西两侧高,中间低,山脉均为南北走向。东部的阿巴拉契亚山自东北向西南扩展,与大西洋岸平行,山脉两侧蕴藏着丰富的煤炭资源,贮量占全国的1/5,产量占全国的3/4,是美国重要的煤炭基地。西部的落基山脉号称北美的脊骨,山体宽500 公里,纵贯美国西部山峰高耸入云,为中部在平原竖起一座天然屏障。中部是占全国领土1/2的大平原。奔腾不息的密西西比河流经中部大平原,使之成为美国重要的农业区。
美国河流众多,以落基山为界分为两大水系:以西为太平洋水系主要河流有科罗拉多河、哥伦比亚河、育空河。以东为大西洋水系,又分为流入大西洋的河流与流入墨西哥湾的河流。前者有哈德逊河、特拉华河、波托马克河;后者主要有密西西比河。 气候与时区
美国本土位于北温带,大部分地区属大陆性气候,由于美国国土幅员辽阔,地形复杂,所受气流影响也不相同,因而全国各地气候差异极大,主要分为5个气候区。
1.大陆性温带阔叶林气候
东北部沿海和五大湖地区是冬冷夏凉的大陆性温带阔叶林气候。该地区冬季寒冷,常有暴风雪,1月份平均气温为-6℃左右,五大湖的结冰期长达5个月;夏季温和多雨7 月份平均气温为10℃。年平均降雨量为1000 毫米。
2.亚热带森林气候
东南部沿海和墨西哥湾沿岸是冬暖夏凉的亚热带森林气候。该地区冬季温暖少雨,1月份平均气温9℃左右;夏季凉爽湿润,7 月份平均气温23℃~27℃,年平均降雨量达2000毫米以上。但每年夏末秋初,常常遭飓风袭击。
3.大陆性气候
中部平原属大陆性气候,冬季寒冷多雪,夏季炎热多雨,密西西比河沿岩地区年降雨量达1500毫米。中央平原的北部年降水量只有500毫米左右,而且年温差变化极大。
4.内陆性气候
西部内陆高原和山地属内陆性气候,内陆高原地区气候干燥,冬季寒冷少雪,夏季炎热少雨。该地区的落基山、喀斯喀特山、内华达山等为高山气候,气温随山势的增高而降低。
5.海洋性气候
太平洋沿岸地区属海洋性气候,北部地区冬暖夏凉,雨量充沛,1月份平均气温4℃以上,8 月份平均气温不超过14 ℃,年降雨量在1500毫米以上,是太平洋沿岸气候条件最好的地区。南部属地中海型气候,冬季温暖多雨,1月份平均气温12℃左右;夏季干燥闷热,8 月份平均气温35℃左右,年降雨量在300~500毫米之间。
美国,从大西洋沿岸到太平洋沿岸近4500 公里,跨越60个经度,加上阿拉斯加则超过110个经度。全国分为8个标准时区,自大西洋岸开始,依次是大西洋时区、东部时区、中部时区、山地时区、太平洋时区、育空时区、阿拉斯加夏威夷时区、白令时区。
本土大陆上主要有4个时区东部、中部、山地、太平洋。其中首都华盛顿所在地的东部时区量为著名,美国一切重大历史时刻都是以东部时间为标准的,东部时间比格林尼治标准时间晚5个小时,比北京时间晚13 个小时。
美国除密执安和亚利难能可贵那两州外,其他各州都实行夏时制。也就是说,每年4月的最后1个星期日的当地时间凌晨2 点至10月最后1 个星期日的凌晨2点,把钟表向前拨1个小时。 人口和民族
美国自建国以来,每10年进行一次人口普查,根据1990年人口普查统计,全国共有人口2.49 亿,女性占51.1%,男性占48.9。农业人口占总人数的1.2% 。全国人口每年增加约230万人。
美国是一个多民族的国家。据美国一家华文报刊资料介绍,美国聚集了世界上155个民族的后裔,其中最主要的是白人、印第安人、黑人和亚裔人。
目前,在美国境内有160多万华人。19 世纪40年代末期,美国为开发西部,从中国福建、广东两地招募了大量华工。这些华工漂洋过海、历尽艰辛,在美国西部从事开矿、垦荒、挖河修路等繁重的体力劳动。从19世纪末期以来,美国先后通过了各种排华立法,境内华人惨遭迫害,导致华人入境人数锐减。在这种恶劣的环境中,华人最终顽强地生存下来,扎根在美国,开创事业。一个多世纪以来,华人的政治地位、经济地位和社会地位不断提高。现在,华人的家庭收入高于全国平均数,教育水平也高于全国平均水平,大学毕业生占华人人口的36%,高出全国平均数20 个百分点。目前,在美国一流科学家和工程师(12万左右)中,华人占3万人之多。在美国大学里,担任助理教授以上教职的华约有1万多人。他们在科技、教育等方面作出了重大贡献,其中有6位华人贡献卓著。获得诺贝尔物理奖和化学奖。他们是纽约州立大学教授杨振宁、哥伦比亚大学教授李政道、麻省理工学院教授丁肇中、伯克利加州大学教授李远哲、斯坦福大学教授朱棣文和普林斯顿大学教授崔琦。
Ⅲ 纽约的英文介绍 地理位置 人口 大小
不知道你指的是纽约州还是纽约市,我这里是关于纽约州的。
New York is a state in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern regions of the United States, the nation's third most populous. The state is bordered by New Jersey and Pennsylvania to the south, and Connecticut, Massachusetts and Vermont to the east. The state has a maritime border with Rhode Island east of Long Island, as well as an international border with the Canadian provinces of Quebec and Ontario to the northwest. New York is often referred to as New York State to distinguish it from New York City.
New York covers 54,556 square miles (141,299 km²) and ranks as the 27th largest state by size. The Great Appalachian Valley dominates eastern New York, while Lake Champlain is the chief northern feature of the valley, which also includes the Hudson River flowing southward to the Atlantic Ocean. The rugged Adirondack Mountains, with vast tracts of wilderness, lie west of the valley. Most of the southern part of the state is on the Allegheny plateau, which rises from the southeast to the Catskill Mountains. The western section of the state is drained by the Allegheny River and rivers of the Susquehanna and Delaware systems. The Delaware River Basin Compact, signed in 1961 by New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and the federal government, regulates the utilization of water of the Delaware system. The highest elevation in New York is Mount Marcy in the Adirondacks.
New York's borders touch (clockwise from the west) two Great Lakes (Erie and Ontario, which are connected by the Niagara River); the provinces of Ontario and Quebec in Canada; Lake Champlain; three New England states (Vermont, Massachusetts, and Connecticut); the Atlantic Ocean, and two Mid-Atlantic states (New Jersey and Pennsylvania). In addition, Rhode Island shares a water border with New York.
As of 2006, New York was the third largest state in population after California and Texas, with an estimated population of 19,306,183.[16] This represents an increase of 329,362, or 1.7%, since the year 2000; it includes a natural increase since the last census of 601,779 people (1,576,125 births minus 974,346 deaths) and a decrease e to net migration of 422,481 people out of the state. Immigration from outside the United States resulted in a net increase of 820,388 people, and migration within the country proced a net loss of about 800,213.
In spite of the open land in the state, New York's population is very urban, with 92% of residents living in an urban area.
New York is a slow growing state with a large rate of migration to other states. In 2000 and 2005, more people moved from New York to Florida than from any one state to another. New York state is a leading destination for international immigration, however. The center of population of New York is located in Orange County, in the town of Deerpark. New York City and its eight suburban counties (excluding those in New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania) have a combined population of 13,209,006 people, or 68.42% of the state's population.
During the 17th century, Dutch trading posts established for the purchase of pelts from the Iroquois and other tribes expanded into the colony of New Netherlands. The first of these trading posts were Fort Nassau (1614, near present-day Albany); Fort Orange (1624, on the Hudson River just south of nowadays city of Albany (to replace the already mentioned Fort Nassau), developing into settlement Beverwijck (1647), and into nowadays Albany); Fort Amsterdam (1625, to develop into the town New Amsterdam which is present-day New York City); and Esopus, (, now Kingston). The British captured the colony ring the Second Anglo-Dutch War and governed it as the Province of New York. Agitation for independence ring the 1770s brought the American Revolution.
New York endorsed the Declaration of Independence on July 9, 1776. The New York state constitution was framed by a convention which assembled at White Plains, New York on July 10, 1776, and after repeated adjournments and changes of location, terminated its labors at Kingston, New York on Sunday evening, April 20, 1777, when the new constitution was adopted with but one dissenting vote. It was not submitted to the people for ratification. It was drafted by John Jay. On July 30, 1777, George Clinton was inaugurated as the first Governor of New York at Kingston.
Ⅳ 用英语介绍美国地理
我是用中文来介绍美国西南地区的:
西南部,由得克萨斯西部、俄克拉荷马部分地区、新墨西哥州、亚利桑那州、内华达州和加利福尼亚南部的部分内陆地区组成。
西南部的气候比较干燥,人口较少,西班牙裔美国人和土生土长的美国人较多。城市以外的地区空旷辽阔,许多地方为沙漠。壮观的大峡谷就位于这个地区,此外,还有莫纽门特谷地,许多西部片都以此作为荒凉而美丽的背景。莫纽门特谷地位于纳瓦霍族保护区内,这里栖息着人口最多的美洲印第安部落。 西南部部分地区一度属于墨西哥。美国在1846-1848年的墨美战争之后获得了这片土地。这儿的墨西哥遗产仍对该地区产生着重大影响,对从遥远的南方来的移民(无论是合法的还是非法的)来说,这儿是一个方便的定居点。该地区的人口正迅猛增长,尤其是亚利桑那州,它作为寻找温暖气候的美国退休人员的目的地, 可与南方诸州相匹敌。

Introction to U.S.A.
The United States of America is a federal constitutional republic comprising fifty states and a federal district. The country is situated mostly in central North America, where its forty-eight contiguous states and Washington, D.C., the capital district, lie between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, bordered by Canada to the north and Mexico to the south. The state of Alaska is in the northwest of the continent, with Canada to its east and Russia to the west across the Bering Strait, and the state of Hawaii is in the mid-Pacific. The United States also possesses several territories, or insular areas, scattered around the Caribbean and Pacific.
At 3.79 million square miles (9.83 million km²) and with over 300 million people, the United States is the third or fourth largest country by total area, and third largest by land area and by population. The United States is one of the world's most ethnically diverse nations, the proct of large-scale immigration from many countries. The U.S. economy is the largest national economy in the world, with a nominal 2006 gross domestic proct (GDP) of more than US$13 trillion (over 19% of the world total based on purchasing power parity).
The nation was founded by thirteen colonies of Great Britain located along the Atlantic seaboard. Proclaiming themselves "states," they issued the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. The rebellious states defeated Great Britain in the American Revolutionary War, the first successful colonial war of independence.A federal convention adopted the current United States Constitution on September 17, 1787; its ratification the following year made the states part of a single republic. The Bill of Rights, comprising ten constitutional amendments, was ratified in 1791.
In the nineteenth century, the United States acquired land from France, Spain, Great Britain, Mexico, and Russia, and annexed the Republic of Texas and the Republic of Hawaii. Disputes between the agrarian South and instrial North over states' rights and the expansion of the institution of slavery provoked the American Civil War of the 1860s. The North's victory prevented a permanent split of the country and led to the end of slavery in the United States. The Spanish-American War and World War I confirmed the nation's status as a military power. In 1945, the United States emerged from World War II as the first country with nuclear weapons, a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, and a founding member of NATO. The United States entered the post–Cold War era as the only remaining superpower and a dominant economic, political, and cultural force in the world.
