高一英语阅读训练四 A Sydney is one of the most beautiful cities in the world and the 2000 Olympic Games put it on the map as one of the most lively and modern cities in the world. Any trip to Sydney is an adventure and with some of the worlds most beautiful beaches, this city has so much to offer. Sydney is so large an area that choosing a hotel is something you need to do very carefully. Public transport is good, but it can be slow and being close to where you want to be is probably the most important factor. The first and most obvious choice is hotels around Circular Quay. Circular Quay is the heart of the city and one of the major interchanges where trains, buses and ferries meet. Its also where Sydneys two most famous landmarks are located — the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbor Bridge. This area is active and offers some of the best views you will ever get from a hotel room. The farther hotels in the city are much more suited to business travelers and they are usually less expensive. Darling Harbor is a great choice as it mixes a great view with being right in the centre of the city. Darling Harbor has hundreds of pubs, clubs and restaurants along the waters edge. If you dont feel like dealing with the hustle_and_bustle of the city and are looking for something a bit quieter, why not head out to the Northern Beaches. Its only a short ferry ride over to Manly where you can find two major hotels on the beach with a number of smaller boutiques (时装店，精品店)． 1.What made Sydney famous as one of the most lively and modern cities in the world?
