  Often referred to as "The Lost City of the Incas",Machu Picchu is probably the most fa?miliar symbol of the Inca Empire(印加帝国).It was built around the year 1450, but abandoned (遗弃)a hundred years later,at the time of the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire. Forgotten for centuries, the site was brought to worldwide attention in 1911 by Hiram Bingham, an Amer?ican historian. Since then,Machu Picchu has become an important tourist attraction. It was an?nounced a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983. It is also one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. But it has recently come to light that the site may have been discovered and robbed secretly as early as in 1867 by a German businessman, Augusto Beras.

  7,000 feet above sea level and located on a small hilltop between the Andean Mountain Range, the majestic city rises above the Urabamba Valley below. Then a huge wall,the Tai-wan-kai, handrails are all seems to be naturally formed in the same precipice. Machu Picchu is surrounded by tropical jungle. Separated into three areas―farming,urban, and religious(宗教的)一the structures are arranged so that the function(功能)of the buildings matches the form of their surroundings. The agricultural terracing and ditches(梯田和沟渠)take advantage of the nat?ural slopes(斜坡);the lower areas contain buildings occupied by farmers and teachers, and the most important religious areas are located at the crest of the hill,over-looking the fresh green Urabamba Valley thousands of feet below.

  Hikers,tourists, and the early explorers describe similar emotions as they'climb their way through the Inca Trail. Many call the experience magical and say the area creates a wonderful green paradise, making it a must for anyone who travels to Peru.

 On the surface, the Hudson River is looking good. The sun on a spring morning shines on the water, off bridges and boats. The blue crabs(蟹)are big,and the striped bass(条紋^) are bigger. On the surface, all these would probably make you think the Hudson was about as healthy as it has been since Indian times.

Sadly,it isn't. A study by the environmental group River-keeper examined an important in?dicator of life of any river,fish,and found discouraging news. Ten of 13 species it examined are reducing, and one―the great and delicious shad(西鲱)一is at a historic low.

  The report blames the usual suspects and a few new ones. The river is getting warmer,and the heat helps starve the water of oxygen. Power plants kill untold millions of fish when they suck up river water to cool their machinery. Invasive species, dirty water and fertilizer runoff and over-fishing in the ocean,where species like shad spend much of their lives,all take their toll.

  Not all fish are struggling. Striped bass are on the increase, as are bluefish and spot-tail shiners. But with other species moving slowly downwards, signs point to a sicker, less stable Hudson ecosystem than many had imagined.

  River-keeper's report shows how little we understand the biology of one of the country's most historic and important estuaries (河口,江口). It is a reminder that even the hardest-fought conservation(对自然环境的保护)victories may look like the easy ones,and that self-satisfaction can be the death of environmental progress.
