Grammar Simple Present Find the

Correct paragraph
Which large American city is on three islands?
New York City! New York is on Manhattan Island,
Long Island, and Staten Island. Most people think of
Manhattan when they think of New York City. This is
because Manhattan has the tall buildings that New
York is famous for. Sometimes people travel from
Staten Island to Manhattan by boat. However, most
people in New York do not use boats to go from one
part of the city to another. Large bridges connect
the islands. Trains and cars also use long tunnels
under the water to move between the islands. In
fact, New Yorkers usually forget that they live on an
island.
