Uncle Sam There is a man who has a long white hair,a brand and wears a swallow-tailed coat,a waistcoat, tall hat with a star and striped trousers, really like the American flag. Do you know him? Oh,yes, he is Uncle Sam,a symbol of the United States. His appearance was from two other characters,Brother Jonathan and Yankee Doodle, in American folklore. But do you know when and why he was used to describe the American government? There are a plenty of opinions. One is during the war, maybe in 1812,they printed the letters "U.S"on the soldiers uniforms. Another is an inspector of the army supplies named Samuel Wilson who had a nickname:Unlce Sam. You know,there are "U.S" on the army supply boxes too. Anyways, in 1961,the American congress adopted Uncle Sam as the symbol of the nation. It's very interesting to choose a cartoon character as a national symbol. Do you remember a poster of Uncle Sam which you uaually watch in some American movies? Yes, Uncle Sam points at you and says "we want you". That is it! That poster encouraged a lot of American young men to join the army and fight for their contry during the First World War. I think it may be the most famous poster in America,even more than the Hollywood movie posters.

Can Anybody tell me the difference between continual and continued please?

The Statue of Liberty The Statue of Llberty, located in NewYork city, maybe the most famous statue in the world. It was a gift which was sent to the people of the United state by the people of France to honor the friendship of the two nations. It was disigned by three genius vasionaries and built in 1886. The statue is about one hundred and fifteen feet tall and is made from steel coated copper. The pedestal is approximate eighty nine feet tall and is made from granite. The whole statue weights about two hundred and twenty five tons. Nowadays it is considered as a symbol of liberty. Nowhere else on earth is there, a symbol expresses the concept and ideals of personal freedom as dramatically. A lot of people donated hundreds of thousands of money for her construction and her continued existence. There are five million people visit the statue every year. I hope that one day I can see it for real.
