关于威尼斯的英语介绍和中文翻译

Venice,Italy is a magical place.It is one of the few cities in the world where the sound of cars are never heard.Instead,when it is quiet,one hears the lapping of waves against the city s magnificent Renaissance buildings.
意大利的威尼斯是一个神奇的天堂,它是世界上少数几个城市听不到汽车声音的城市之一.取而代之的宁静,你可以听到水浪拍打着城市里伟大的文艺复兴时期的建筑
Venice is located in a lagoon in the Adriatic Sea and is built on islands linked by more than 400 bridges.All transportation is by boat or on foot.Venice s most famous vehicles are gondolas,which drift slowly through the city s famed canals as the men steering the boats serenade passengers with arias from Italian operas.
威尼斯坐落于亚得里亚海的泻湖之上,由400多座桥梁连接而成.所有的运输工具都是船或者步行.威尼斯最著名的交通工具就是冈朵拉（Gondola）,坐在冈朵拉上面可以一边看风景一边听艺人们演奏的意大利歌剧.
Venice becomes even more enchanting during Carnival.Carnival is an annual celebration before Lent,a 40-day period of fasting that precedes Easter.The dates of Carnival vary each year depending on the date of Ash Wednesday,the first day of Lent.
狂欢节上的威尼斯尤其迷人.嘉年华每年在四旬斋节前举行,在复活节前禁食40天.每年的嘉年华定为复活节前的第七个星期三,四旬斋的第一天.
