The Statue of Liberty
                                                                  自由女神铜像

     In the water around New York City is a very small island called Liberty Island. On Liberty Island there
is a very special statue called the Statue of Liberty. It is one of the most famous sights in the world.
      The Statue of Liberty was a gift from the people of France to the people of the United States. The statue
was made by a French sculptor (雕塑家) named Frederic Auguste Bartholdi. 1 The inner support system
was designed by Gustave Eiffel, the same man who made the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris.
     Liberty, of course, means freedom, and the Statue of Liberty was given to the United States to celebrate
the one-hundredth anniversary (周年纪念日) of U.S. independence (独立) from England. The statue was
built in France, taken apart piece by piece, and then rebuilt in the United States. 2 It was opened for the
public on October 28, 1886.
     As you might expect, the statue is very big. Visitors can ride an elevator (电梯) from the ground to the
bottom of the statue. If they want to, they can then walk up the 168 steps to reach the head of the statue
where they can look out and enjoy the beautiful sight (景色) of the city of New York.
