Mexico City is truly one of the most amazing cities in the world with a mixture of both the old and new world. From the moment your plane starts to land in this vast city, you know that your trip will be quite an adventure.

Once in your taxi and the moment you leave the airport, you are amazed at the large amount of slow traffic. The volume of the traffic can be stressful to some.

    The "Paseo de la Reforma (改革大道)", running southwest across the city, is one of the major tourist and business areas in Mexico City with many high quality hotels only walking distance from great restaurants and other tourist attractions. The only problem you will have is trying to see all of these sites during your vacation time.

    One of the most popular attractions in this area is the National Museum of Anthropology along the northwest part of the street. There are thousands of artifacts on display showing the history of the area and numerous items found from the many Aztec sites in the area. Walking southwest from the museum, you will soon reach the Mexico City Zoo, which is a great place to spend an afternoon.

    Across the street from the museum is the Chapultepec Castle, once an important site in the Mexican-American war. It's also a good idea to take the train up the hill to where the castle is located as the hill is steep (陡峭的). It's important to keep in mind that Mexico City is over 7,000 feet above sea level and some feel it difficult to breathe when walking.

    You can take a taxi to the Coyoacan market during the evening on a weekend. It's a great place to get some cheap souvenirs （纪念品）to bring back home and to enjoy some traditional Mexican cuisine. However, you must be careful where you eat and that the meat is well cooked.

阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。（请注意问题后的字数要求）

Most people agree that the direct American personality is a Virtue，but it sometimes surprises foreigners. In many cultures, respect for older people or those in positions of authority keeps others from expressing their true feelings. But in the US，children often argue with their parents，students may disagree with their teachers, and citizens may express opposition to be actions of the government．If the soup has a fly in it or the meat is too tough to chew，the diner can complain to the waiter．If the boss makes a mistake, an employee will politely point it out．

Some straight talk about the American character must include the admission that Americans have their faults．The extremely competitive nature of Americans is probably their worst fault. Although sometimes it may promote excellence by encouraging individuals and businesses to try to do their best，the desire to get ahead of others sometimes causes people to de things that are unkind and even dishonest. Also, Americans admire what is practical，fast，efficient，and fresh．Sometimes they fail to understand and appreciate practices that have greater respect for more traditional，leisurely ways of doing things. on the other hand，people from other cultures may dislike the practical，challenging American lifestyle

Despite culture differences most foreigners give Americans credit for their virtues．Americans are generally viewed as friendly and energetic．Most newcomers to the US like Americans，and the feeling is usually mutual（相互的）．Perhaps the greatest American virtue is a deep interest in new ideas and new

people．In a nation of immigrants．the foreigner does not remain an outsider for long
