Let's pretend we're sailing down the Rhine River on a pleasure boat. The Rhine is one of the main water?ways ofGermany, and the river traffic is heavy. It's in?teresting to watch many boats going up and down the river. But the river traffic is not nearly so interesting as the beautiful scenery along the banks and hillsides. The boat is passing many old castles. We can see people working in the vineyards (葡萄园)on the hillsides. There are vineyards as far as the eye can see. Wine from the Rhine Valley is famous all over the world.

Suddenly our boat slows down and begins to turn a little. We are coming to a sharp bend in the river. On our right we can see a rocky cliff over 400 feet high. At first it looks quite ordinary, but there is nothing ordina?ry about it. There are many stories, poems, and songs about the cliff. We are looking at the Lorelei.

Then someone on the boat begins to sing in Ger?man* the song of the Lorelei. It is a song about a beau?tiful siren (美女)who has lured many sailors to their deaths.

The siren is supposed to sit on the rock combing her long golden hair and singing. The sailors who hear her song forget to steer, and the current of river hurls their boats on the rocks and dashes them to pieces.
