A few hours later; at Pearl Harbor
Jun: Hawaii is nothing like Utah. Are you sure this is the same country?
Lisa: Hawaii is really unique. Last state in the union. The only island state. No racial majority.
Jun: No majority? Everyone here looks Asian to me.
Lisa: Some of those are native Hawaiians. Some are Japanese, Filipino, Chinese, Fijian, Tongan. Twenty-four percent is white, but really, everyone's just all mixed up here.
Jun: I guess you fit right in here, being half Japanese and half white.
Lisa: There's even a Hawaiian word for that! I'm a hapa.
(续上期)
小君：夏威夷跟犹他州完全不同。你确定这是在同一个国家吗？
莉莎：夏威夷的确很独特。是美国的最后一州。也是唯一的州岛。没有多数民族。
小君：没有多数民族？这里的每个人在我看来都像亚洲人。
莉莎：他们有些是夏威夷原住民。有些是日本人、菲律宾人、中国人、斐济人、东加人。百分二十四是白人，但事实上，这里每个人都是混血儿。
小君：我想你很适合这里，你是一半日本人，一半白人。
莉莎：甚至还有一个夏威夷字用来指这种混血儿。我是一个‘哈帕’。
重点解说：
★ union (n.) 美国
★ state (n.) （美国的）州
★ racial (a.) 种族的
★ majority (n.) 多数

Finland has much more to offer than the cold nights, saunas, and skiing it is often associated with. Visitors are enchanted by charming villages alongside sophisticated cities and the largest unspoiled wilderness in Europe.
芬兰除了常被人们想到的寒夜、桑拿浴与滑雪，还有更多风格独特的面貌。优雅城市周边的迷人村庄和欧洲占地最广、未遭破坏的荒野，往往令游客们陶醉不已。 | |
