Reading & Listening
1 Look at the leaflet about New York. What
do you know about this city? What is there
for tourists to see?
Listen and read the leaflet to check.
A A Speedboat Ride around
the Statue of Liberty
This 43-metre statue is on
Liberty Island and it’s the
symbol of American
independence. The 30-
minute ride is
the best
chance to take
great photographs
and have fun. There’s
a boat every hour.
Be ready to get
wet. Don’t forget
your camera!
B A Horse-and-Carriage Ride in Central Park
Taking a horse-and-carriage ride in a city?! Well, yes! There’s a
6-mile path through beautiful trees and it’s a great way to see
this huge park! It’s got lakes, restaurants, a zoo and a skating
rink.
C A Skyride in the Empire
State Building
The Empire State Building is
a skyscraper with 102 floors
and fantastic views! The
Skyride on the second
floor is a fun flight
around the city, but it
isn’t on a plane – it’s in
a huge cinema!
