「國家公園局」 (National Park Service) 於191645日成立了

準備好要旅行了嗎?我們去美國的國家公園好嗎?西元191645日、6日,許多天然資源保護論者、公民領袖,以及政府官員們,在國會作證支持設立國家公園局。由於這些人的努力,我們現在才有許多美麗且維持良好的國家公園,例如優勝美地 (Yosemite) 、大峽谷 (Grand Caynon) 、羅需摩爾山 (Mount Rushmore) 、以及蒙大拿州的冰河公園 (Glacier Park) 等。你有沒有去過這些國家公園呢?國家公園局在1916年成立時,負責管理40座國家公園與歷史遺跡。你知道現在國家公園局需要管理多少國家公園嗎?


Ready to take a trip? How about visiting one of America's national parks? On April 5 and 6, 1916, conservationists, civic leaders, and government officials testified before Congress in favor of establishing the National Park Service. Thanks to them, we have beautiful and well-maintained parks like Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, Mount Rushmore, and Glacier Park in Montana. Have you visited any of these? The National Park Service started with 40 national parks and monuments in 1916. How many national parks would you guess there are today?
