Venice(威尼斯) is the "Queen" of the Adriatic Sea(亚得里亚海). Every year thousands of people from all over the world travel to Italy to visit the city. Do you know why they like to go there for a visit?
Venice is a very beautiful city. It is quite different from other cities in the world. There aren't any roads or streets in the city, so there aren't any cars or buses. There are many canals(运河)in the city. There is one big canal and one hundred and seventy-seven small canals. People move up and down the canals in boats to go to work, go shopping or visit their friends.
But Venice is sinking(下沉)It is going down and the water is going up. In 2040 Venice will be under water. The Adriatic Sea will cover (覆盖) the city.

A city without cars would be very strange, right? Venice(威尼斯)is such a city. Venice is in the northeast of Italy. It isn’t built on land, like Beijing or shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere around the city. Even so, travel isn’t difficult. The waterways have always been the best way to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can take you where you want to go. People in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy cool summer nights while they are taking boat trips. Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem. Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower, little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters(厘米). Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower.
