Die Schweiz liegt zwar geografisch nicht genau mitten in Europa, spielt jedoch mindestens in verkehrstechnischer Hinsicht eine zentrale Rolle: durch die Alpen führt die zentrale europäische Verbindung von Norden nach Süden.Ausserdem grenzt die Schweiz im Norden an Deutschland, im Osten an Österreich und das Fürstentum Liechtenstein, im Westen an Frankreich und im Süden an Italien. Auf diese Weise treffen in der Schweiz drei grosse europäische Kulturen aufeinander, nämlich die deutsche, die französische und die italienische.Young people in Switzerland are as varied in their tastes and activities as their counterparts anywhere else in the world.Different trends come and go. Some live for modern technology, while others seek for harmony between nature and body. Some think only of material values and external appearances, others try to right society's wrongs by joining extreme political groups.Young people today are comfortable with prosperity. They search for their place in society and in the working world and enjoy freedom in their free time.As society becomes more prosperous, people in general, and young people in particular, attach more importance to their leisure. A poll conducted in 1999 showed that 63% of those aged between 18 and 39 regarded their leisure as "very important."Their relative wealth and the explosion of opportunities for enjoying their free time has led many to identify more with their leisure activities and the group or scene they belong to, rather than with their job.For many young Swiss, as for their counterparts in many other countries, wearing the right clothes with the right label is a way of asserting their personality and gaining social recognition. Where their parents passed surreptitious notes to each other in class, modern teenagers use the short message service on their mobile phones to communicate with their friends wherever they are in an abbreviated youth dialect that leaves adults perplexed - sometimes amused and sometimes annoyed.Switzerland's history cannot be understood without considering its geography, which has had a considerable impact on determining the development of its way of life.The country that we know today took its final shape only in 1848. Before that time, we cannot really speak of "Swiss history," but rather the history of its various parts, which only gradually came together.。

4.我要写一篇英语作文关于瑞士
There is a strong architectural tradition in Switzerland. The Romanesque style of the 12th century can be found in the cathedrals of Basel, Sion, Chur, Geneva and Lausanne. This style, which is rich in expression, can also be found on many castles and fortresses around the country, many of which preserved in a good condition. The cathedrals of Schaffhausen, Zug and Zürich are of the Gothic style, and the churches of Einsiedeln and St. Gallen are of Baroque style. During the Renaissance, a large number of architectural masters gave their talents to Italy. Most of these came from the southern canton of Ticino. The Prisons near the Doge's Palace in Venice and the Rialto Bridge in Venice were built by Antonio da Ponte. The Bridge of Sighs in Venice was built by Antonio Contino, and Domenico Fontana (1543-1607) designed the entire Lateran Palace in Naples as well as the facade of the St. John Lateran Church and the Royal Palace in the same city. Fontana's nephew Carlo Maderno was an architect to Pope Paul V. San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane, the gallery of the Palazzo Spada and the Filippini monastery were built by Francesco Borromini, and Carlo Fontana was responsible for the facade of San Marcello al Corso and the Montecitorio Palace; Baldassare Longhena, from Maroggia, built the church of Santa Maria della Salute, the Rezzonico and the Widmann palaces; all in Venice.。

6.瑞士英文介绍,简单点
Switzerland is bordered by Germany to the north, France to the west, Italy to the south and Austria and Liechtenstein to the east. The country has a long history of neutrality — it has not been at war since 1815 — and hosts many international organizations, including the Red Cross, the World Trade Organization and one of the U.N.'s two European offices. It is not a member of the European Union, but it is part of the Schengen Agreement.Switzerland is multilingual and has four national languages: German, French, Italian and Romansh. The country's formal name is Schweizerische Eidgenossenschaft in German, Confée799bee5baa6e59b9ee7ad9431333238653939dération suisse in French, Confederazione Svizzera in Italian and Confederaziun svizra in Romansh. The establishment of Switzerland is traditionally dated to 1 August 1291; Swiss National Day is celebrated on the anniversary.Olympic headquarters/LausanneThink about the history of the Olympic games and no doubt Athens comes to mind. The Olympic headquarters, however, are located in Lausanne, Switzerland, the federation's fifth largest city. Since 1915, the city has been home to the headquarters of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) as well as many of the sports federations. Add to that over 300 active sports clubs in the city, and you've got a destination where even the most active honeymooners and romantic travelers will find plenty of fun.The most important geographical feature of the area surrounding Lausanne is Lake Geneva (Lac Léman in French). Lausanne is built on the southern slope of the Swiss plateau, with a difference in elevation of about 500 meters (1,640 ft) between the lakeshore at Ouchy and its northern edge bordering Le Mont-sur-Lausanne and Epalinges. Lausanne boasts a dramatic panorama over the lake and the Alps.Jungfraujoch The snow-covered Alps of the Jungfraujoch have been attracting visitors for hundreds of years. The peak of the Jungfrau is 4158m high. visitors can see the longest glacier in Europe, the 24km long Aletsch Glacier. Skiing and alpine activities are popular but one of the best ways to take in the region is by train.
