美国概况-英文版---在留学、申请学校、演讲时都很有用哦 General Information on the USA The United States of America is composed of 50 states and Washington D.C. Variety is a key characteristic of the United States, both geographically and culturally. The total area is 9,372,614 square kilometers(9 million), making it one of the largest countries in the world. According to 2007 estimates, the population of the United States is 270,300,000, the third largest in the world behind China and India. The largest cities in the United States are New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Philadelphia. Throughout most of its history, The United States places a high priority on education. Colleges and universities in The United States-notably Harvard, Yale, and Princeton universities, MassachusettsInstitute of Technology, California Institude of Technology, and the University of Chicago- are among the world’s great education institutions. The official language of the United States is English. In addition, some regions and races use other languages, like French, Spanish etc. The United States locates in the south of North America , east to Atlantic Ocean, west to Pacific Ocean, north to Canada and south to Mexico and Gulf of Mexico. 1 Washington DC is a federal district under the authority of the U.S. Congress. Washington DC is represented in Congress by an elected, non-voting Delegate to the House of Representatives. Residents have been able to vote in presidential elections since 1961. Geography Americans often speak of their country as one of several large regions. These regions are cultural units rather than governmental units - formed by history and geography and shaped by the economics, literature and folkways(民俗) that all the parts of a region share. What makes one region different from another? Within several regions, language is used differently and there are strong dialects(方言). There are also differences in outlook and attitude based on geography. A region's multicultural heritage as well as distinct demographic characteristics like age and occupation also make regions different and special. The United States is a varied land - of forests, deserts, mountains, high flat lands and fertile plains. The country lies mostly in the temperate zone but there is a very wide range of climate variations. The continental United States stretches 4,500 kilometers from the Atlantic Ocean on the east to the Pacific Ocean on the west. It borders Canada on the north and reaches south to Mexico and the Gulf of Mexico. The United States covers a total area of 9 million square kilometers (including Alaska and Hawaii). Alaska is the largest in area of the 50 states, and Texas is the second largest. Economy The United States entered the 21st century with an economy that was bigger, and by many measures more successful, than ever. Though the United States held less than 5 percent of the world's population, it accounted for more than 25 percent of the world's economic output. In the 1990s, the American economy recorded the longest uninterrupted period of expansion in its history. A wave of technological innovations in computing, telecommunications, and the biological sciences were profoundly affecting how Americans work and play. 2
