摊开一张美国地图,可以看到流经美国东北部最后注入纽约港的哈德逊河几乎一路笔直向南而行,可是它在南下途中被一座石山挡住了去路。只好从山的东部绕过。这座石山就是著名的西点,举世闻名的美国西点军校就坐落在这里。 As you spread a map of the United States, you can see that the Hudson River, which flows through the northeastern United States and finally into New York Harbor, runs almost straight to the south, but it is blocked by a rocky hill on the southbound road. Had to bypass the eastern part of the mountain. This rocky hill is the famous West Point, where the world-famous American West Point military school is located.
