Along its shores were small Indian villages. In fact, Indians were the only people on the island until 1609. In the spring of that year, Henry Hudson, a famous sea captain, arrived there. He was trying to find a short way to the Far East for Dutch traders. His ship was very small. It was only about the size of one of the lifeboats you see on modern ocean liners today. Of course, Henry Hudson did not find a shorter way to the Far East. Instead he reached the shores of North America. He came to the mouth of the large waterway now called the Hudson River.As he came near to the shore, he saw an Indian village. The Indians seemed friendly. They even came out to meet the ship and offered their furs to the Dutch sailor in exchange for glass beads and other small things. When Henry Hudson returned to Holland, he showed everyone the fine furs. He told of the rich soil, and the streams filled with fish. Later Dutch traders began to send many ships to the rich new world across the sea.你性情开朗积极乐观，懂得在学习中享受生活;你团结同学，具有强大的凝聚力，是同学们的朋友也是学习的楷模;你尊敬老师，珍爱友谊，拥有阳光一般灿烂的心情。

I’m Roy Carroll.W: Hello, Roy. Have a seat.

That doesn’t happen much now.W: Did you use to work more as a team?M: Yes, we did. We’re more on our own now.

I’ll try to finish my task as soon as possible so that it won’t delay your lunch break ten minutes later. I’m wondering if you all can hear me. Good, I’d like to tell you about some changes in our offices. Because our company is concerned about the environment, there are some changes as to how office waste will be handled. Starting from next Friday, containers will be placed throughout the office for recycling. Please note that all red containers are for anything that is plastic, while all green containers are meant for glass things. These containers will be emptied each Wednesday and their contents will be sent to a recycling factory. As you leave, please take one of the papers on the table at the back of the room. It summarizes all of the information I’ve just given you. Remember, the program doesn’t begin until next Friday. So that’s all from me. Thank you for your cooperation with this effort.。
