Geography(美国地理)
Geography(美国地理)I. Location and Size1.What is the full name of the United States?United States of America. Often we call it the United States, the U.S., U.S.A., or America.2.What is the geographical location of the US?2.1 The continental United StatesThe continental United States lies in central North America with Canada to its north, Mexico and the Gulf of Mexico to its south, the Atlantic Ocean to its east and the Pacific Ocean to its west.2.2 The 2 newest states Alaska and Hawaii are separated from continental United States:Alaska borders on northwestern Canada, andHawaii lies in the central Pacific.3.What are the advantages of the location of the US?The US has an ideal location for its development.3.1 Its Atlantic coast faces the developed countries of Western Europe, and its Pacific coast and Hawaii give the nation an approach to the Far East and Australasia(澳大拉西亚,一般指澳大利亚、新西兰及附近南太平洋诸岛,有时也泛指大洋洲Oceania和太平洋岛屿)3.2 In the past the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans served as natural barriers between the US and the rest of the world. This allowed the US to grow and become strong with little outside interference. And today the development of means of communication and transportation makes the US well connected to the rest of the world.4.What is the size of the US?4.1 What is the size of the US?The US has a land area of 9.3 million square kilometers. It stretches 2,575 kilometres from north to south and 4,500 kilometres from east to west.4.2 How large is the US compared with the other countries?It is the 4th largest country in the world in size after Russia, Canada and China.4.3 How many states are there in the US?The US is a federal republic with many states.

Texas alone is larger than France and Alaska is twice as big as Texas.II. Topography---The Face of the Land1.MountainsThere are 2 major mountains in the US: The Appalachian Mountains and the Rocky Mountains. 1.1The Appalachian Mountains1.1.1 The Appalachian Mountains run slightly from the northeast to southwest.1.1.2 The Appalachians are old (have been worn out over millions of years) and low (the highest peak is only a little over 2,000 metres).1.1.3 The Appalachians are noted for virgin forests and mines.1.1.4 The mountains served as a natural barrier for westward movement during the early settlement.1.2The Rocky Mountains1.2.1 The Rocky Mountains run slightly from the northwest to southeast.1.2.2 The Rockies are younger (are considered as young as China’s Himalayas) and high (with the higher peak Elbert of about 4,500 metres)1.2.3 The Rockies serves as the backbone of the North American continent and is known as the Continental Divide.1.2.4 The Mountains are famous for lots of natural national parks, such as the Yellow Stone Park.2.Rivers and Lakes2.1RiversThe rivers in the country are mainly lying between the Appalachian and Rocky Mountains.2.1.1The Mississippi2.1.1.1 The Mississippi is 3,782 kilometres long.2.1.1.2 The Mississippi and its tributaries drain one of the richest farm areas in the world.2.1.1.3 They form a 19,000-kilometre system of waterways and serve as important means of transportation.2.1.1.4 The Mississippi has been called “father of waters”and the “old man river”.2.1.2The Missouri2.1.2.1 The Missouri is over 6,000 kilometres and is one of the longest rivers in the world.2.1.2.2 It runs 3,725 kilometres before it joins the Mississippi.2.1.3The Ohio2.1.3.1 It is about 1,500 kilometres long.2.1.3.2 It has been called the American Ruhr (after the Ruhr River鲁尔河in Germany), famous for its rich valuable deposits.2.1.3.3 The area is well known for its steel industry.2.1.4 On the Pacific side there are 2 great rivers: the Colorado in the south, and the Columbia rises in Canada.2.1.5The Hudson2.2Lakes2.2.1 The most important lakes in the US are the Great Lakes, which include2.2.1.1 Lake Superior苏必利尔湖:the largest fresh water lake in the world.2.2.1.2 Lake Michigan密歇根湖:the only one entirely in the US2.2.1.3 Lake Huron休伦湖2.2.1.4 Lake Erie伊利湖2.2.1.5 Lake Ontario安大略湖They are all located between Canada and the US except Lake Michigan.2.2.2 What are the benefits of the lakes, rivers and seacoasts of the US?The Lakes and rivers form a complete system of waterways which provides cheap transportation for materials. Many swift rivers provide good sources of hydroelectric power. The long and irregular seacoasts provide many excellent harbours.III. Climate1.What is the general climatic feature of the US?1.1 The US is located in the middle latitudes north of the equator.1.2 Owing to its location in the northern temperate zone, generally speaking the large part of US enjoys continental climate.2. What are the different types of climate in the US?2.1 Why are the climate varied in the US?There are different types of climate in the US owing to its large size and varied landforms.2.2 What are the different types of climate in different regions?2.2.1 Continental climateA humid continental climate in the northeastern part of the country (New England).Summer is long and hot, while winter is cold. Plenty of rainfall and a long growing season.2.2.2 Humid subtropical climateIn the South-eastern United States you can find a humid subtropical climate. The summers are hot and winters mild.2.2.3 Humid continental and humid subtropical climateThis could be found in the central part of the US. You can also find the continental steppe climate of the Great Plains and the continental desert climate of the intermountain region.2.2.4 Maritime climateThe Pacific Northwest is favored with a maritime climate.The southern part of the Pacific coast in California has a Mediterranean climate with warm, dry summers and moist winters.IV. Geographical RegionsFrom the east to the west the United States can be divided into 7 geographic regions.They are New England, the Middle Atlantic states, the Midwest, the South, the Great Plains, the American West (or Rockies and Intermountain region), the Pacific Coast and the New States. 1.New England1.1 New England is made up of 6 states of the Northeast. They are Maine缅因州, New Hampshire新罕布什尔, Vermont佛蒙特, Massachusetts摩萨诸塞, Rhode Island罗得岛, and Connecticut康涅狄格.1.2 Dairying is the most important farm activity.Much of the land is mountainous or hilly, and the soil is generally thin and rock. Because of its stony soil it is not noted for its agriculture.1.3 The birthplace of America1.3.1 It was the earliest place to be settled by the early settlers from England.1.3.2 It was the chief center of the American War of Independence of 1776.1.3.3 It was also the nation’s first industrial area1.4 New England is also well known for its position in education.Many famous universities and colleges such Yale, Harvard, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) are located here.1.5 New Englanders were originally known as Yankees北方佬, which came to stand for all Americans.2.The Middle Atlantic states2.1 The Middle Atlantic states are New, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Marylan, and West Virginia.2.2 It is a highly industrialized area and the nerve center of the country.2.3 The nation’s capital city Washington D.C. locates here.2.4 The area is famous for its financial, manufacturing.3.The Midwest3.1 it includes 12 states.3.2 The states lie in the northern part of the United States. In the early days the Appalachian Mountains were difficult to cross. Later when the explorers did cross them, they called the area the West. So this northern part came to be called the Midwest.3.3 It is a major manufacturing region and the nation’s leading center of heavy industry.4.The American South4.1 it includes 13 states.4.2 Because of the abundant rainfall and fertile soil of the Mississippi Lowland, agriculture was for long the chief occupation of the south.4.3 Most of the South is in a humid subtropical climate. The climate has also made parts of the South leading vacation resorts. This is particular in Florida (the sun belt).4.4 The South is rich in mineral resources. It is one of the richest oil-producing regions in the world.5.The Great Plains5.1 Livestock raising is the chief occupation here.5.2 Mining and industry are becoming important in the area because of the raw materials located there.6.The Rocky Mountains (west to the Great Plains)6.1 Much of the area is too mountainous for grazing, and very little of it is usable farmland.6.2 Mining is the chief industry in the Rocky Mountains.6.3 Another important industry of the Rockies is the tourist trade. You can find lots of national parks here, such as the famous tourist attractions of Yellowstone National Park, Glacier National Park.7.The Pacific Coast7.1 It is characterized by a series of mountain ranges and fertile river valleys.7.2 Fruits and vegetables are grown in large amounts.7.3 It is important for mineral and forest resources.8.The 2 new states8.1AlaskaInuit因纽特人,often call Eskimos.8.2HawaiiTourism is Hawaii’s most important industry.□。

美国人口: 是世界第三、西半球最多的国家
思考?
美国总人口3.3亿,是世界第三人 口大国,人口增长率为0.97%,美 国是世界上经济最发达的国家,为 什么人口增长速度要比一般的发达 国家快呢?
种族歧视问题
通过下面的话语能感受到什么呢?
现在,黑种人的贫困率是白种人的二至三 倍,失业率是白种人的两倍
土著印第安人的先辈们曾被白种人无情地杀戮, 活下来的人被赶到西部山区的“保留地”内居住。
现在,有许多华人工作时间比较长,但是工资 比较低,还时常受到不公正的待遇。

华人对美国的贡献
美国中央太平洋铁路
1848年以后,大批华人移居美国,他们对 美国的繁荣作出了巨大的贡献。历史上, 华人劳工在美国西部开发和铁路的修建中 发挥了重要作用。有人曾说,如果没有中 国人使用炸药的知识并重视炸药的作用, 如果没有中国人贴在几乎垂直的悬崖上干 活,如果没有中国人闯过了白人难以忍受 的难关,中央太平洋铁路决不会建成。如 果能建成,时间上也要拖得很久。现代在 美国各行各行都有华人杰出的表现。例如, 李政道、杨振宁、丁肇中等先后获得诺贝 尔物理学奖,贝聿铭1983年获得普利克奖 (被称为建筑学界的诺贝尔奖),王赣骏 是第一位华裔航天员。

高中地理——美国
早期的移民把欧洲文化带到美国。 很快地, 这些文化遍及美国各地。 时 至今日, 美国已经成为世界文化的主流之一。 许多的美国艺术家们对于发 展新的风格, 新的自我表现方式, 甚至新的文化型式都作出巨大的贡献。 美国文化的主要内容是强调个人价值,追求民主自由,崇尚开拓和竞争,讲 求理性和实用,其核心是个人中心主义:个人至上、追求个人利益,强调通 过个人奋斗、个人自我设计,追求个人价值的最终实现。这种刻意塑造自我, 追求个性化的个人主义有其积极的意义,它调动了个人的积极性,使许多人 的智慧和潜力得以充分发挥,从而促进整个民族与国家的振兴和发展。 美国公众注重成就,仰慕英雄,有深厚的成就崇拜和英雄崇拜的心理积淀。 个人成就是所有美国人价值观中评价最高的价值之一。美国人有很强的成就 (或成功)意识。成功是所有美国人的追求,是诱人的前景,前进的动力。 他们坚信,一个人的价值就等于他在事业上的成就。一些事业有成的企业家、 科学家、艺术家和各类明星,成了新时代的英雄。他们个人奋斗的过程和结 果,成了社会文化价值取向的参照系,父母教育子女的活教材。 美国是流动性很大的社会。这种流动体现在两个方面:地域性流动和社会性 流动。美国相对的开放自由、发达的交通和冒险好动的传统使许多美国人从 乡村流到城市,又从市中心流向郊区;从北方流到南方阳光地带,从一个城 市流到另一个城市。美国社会阶级不像欧洲国家那样固定,加上公共教育的 普及,使沿着社会阶梯向上流动成为可能。许多生活在美国的人,无论是土 生土长的美国人,还是漂洋过海来到美国的外国移民,都有一个梦,即通过 自己的努力,改变自己的命运,实现自己的人生梦想,这就是人们常津津乐 道的“美国梦”。
美国自然资源丰富,矿产资源总探明储量居世界首位。 煤、石油、天然气、铁矿森林资源石、钾盐、磷酸盐、 硫磺等矿物储量均居世界前列。 其他矿物有铜、铅、钼、铀、铝矾土、金、汞、镍、 碳酸钾、银、钨、锌、铝、铋等。战略矿物资源钛、锰 、钴、铬等主要靠进口。 截至2010年底,美国已探明原油储量206.8亿桶,居世 界第13位。已探明天然气储量7.716万亿立方米,居世界 第5位;已探明煤储量4910亿吨,居世界第一。森林面积 约44亿亩,覆盖率达33%。2011年美国原油产量20.65亿 桶,进口41.46亿桶,出口10.67亿桶。天然气产量28.58 万亿立方英尺,进口3.46万亿立方英尺,出口1.51万亿 立方英尺。

Along the Atlantic Seacoast is a narrow plain that begins far up to the coast and becomes wider as it goes south. Many heavily wooded mountains and deep valley cut by wide and beautiful rivers can be found here. To the west of Atlantic coastal plain lie the Appalachian Mountains that begin in Canada and reach all the way to Georgia and Alabama. Appalachians have much beautiful scenery and many tourist resorts. The second part is the Mississippi River Basin. The Mississippi River Basin between the Appalachians and the Rockies is one of the largest areas in the world. The states in the Midwest have fertile plains, low rolling hills, and no high mountains. The third part is the Rockies West to the Pacific. These high mountains stretch all the way from Mexico to the Arctic and from what is known as Continental Divide, or Great Divide. The Rockies are more than twice as high as the Appalachians and high enough to receive lots of rain . Between the Rocky Mountain and the Cascade-Sierra Nevada ranges is the great plateau area. Along the Pacific coast from Washington State to southern California, extend the Coast Ranges.美国大陆可以分为三个基本区域。
