Read the following passage and answer the given questions.

When I was at college I used to spend my summer vacations in Dehra, at my grandmother’s place. I would leave the plains early in May and return in July. Deoli was a small station about thirty miles from Dehra; it marked the beginning of the heavy jungles of the Indian Terai. The train would reach Deoli at about five in the morning when the station would be dimly lit with electric bulbs and oil lamps, and the jungle across the railway tracks would just be visible in the faint light of dawn. Deoli had only one platform, an office for the station master, and a waiting room. The platform boasted a tea stall, a fruit vendor, and a few stray dogs; not much else, because the train stopped there only ten minutes before rushing on into the forests. Why it stopped at Deoli, I don’t know. Nothing ever happened there. Nobody got off the train and nobody got in. There were never any coolies on the platform. But the train would halt there a full ten minutes, and then a bell would sound, the guard would blow his whistle, and presently Deoli would be left behind and forgotten. I used to wonder what happened in Deoli, behind the station walls. I always felt sorry for that lonely little platform and for the place that nobody wanted to visit. I decided that one day I would get off the train at Deoli, and spend the day there, just to please the town. I was eighteen, visiting my grandmother, and the night train stopped at Deoli. A girl came down the platform, selling baskets. It was a cold morning and the girl had a shawl thrown across her shoulders. Her feet were bare and her clothes were old, but she was a young girl, walking gracefully and with dignity. When she came to my window, she stopped.

न्यूयार्क अमेरिका का सबसे बड़ा और प्रमुख नगर है। यह न्यूयार्क राज्य में है, जो अमेरिका के उत्तरपूर्वी भाग में स्थित है। न्यूयार्क नगर, सन 1790 से अमेरिका का सर्वाधिक जनसंख्या वाला नगर है, जबकि न्यूयार्क का महानगरीय क्षेत्र विश्व के सर्वाधिक जनसंख्या वाले महानगरीय क्षेत्रों में से एक है। यह विश्व का एक प्रमुख महानगर है और विश्व व्यापार, वाणिज्य, संस्कृति, फैशन और मनोरंजन पर इसका बहुत प्रभाव है। संयुक्त राष्ट्र का मुख्यालय यहाँ स्थित होने के कारण यह अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय मामलों का भी एक प्रमुख केन्द्र है।

अटलांटिक की ओर मुख किए हुए विशाल बंदरगाह बाले इस म���ानगर में पाँच बरो (प्रशासनिक इकाईयाँ) हैं: ब्रॉन्क्‍स, ब्रुक्लिन, मैनहटन, क्वींस और स्टेटन द्वीप। नगर की अनुमानित जनसंख्या लगभग 82 लाख है,जो 790 वर्ग किलोमीटर के क्षेत्रफल में बसी हुई है, जो न्यूयार्क को अमेरिका का सर्वाधिक जनसंख्या घनत्व वाला नगर बनाता है। न्यूयार्क महानगरीय क्षेत्र की अनुमानित 1.88 करोड़ की जनसंख्या भी अमेरिका में सर्वाधिक है, जो 17,400 वर्ग किलोमीटर क्षेत्रफल में बसी हुई है।

न्यूयार्क शहर, संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका के पूर्वोत्तर में न्यू यॉर्क राज्य में वॉशिंगटन, डी सी और बोस्टन के बीच लगभग आधे रास्ते में स्थित है। हडसन नदी के मुहाने पर स्थित होने से, जोकि एक स्वाभाविक बंदरगाह हैं, और फिर अटलांटिक महासागर ने, शहर को एक व्यापारिक बंदरगाह के रूप में महत्वपूर्ण स्थान बना दिया है। अधिकांश न्यूयॉर्क शहर लांग आइलैंड, मैनहट्टन, और स्टेटन द्वीप के तीन द्वीपों को मिला कर बनाया गया है।

हडसन नदी, हडसन घाटी के माध्यम से न्यू यॉर्क खाड़ी की ओर बहती है। न्यूयॉर्क शहर और ट्रॉय, न्यूयॉर्क के बीच नदी एक मुहाना बनती है। हडसन नदी अमेरिकी राज्य न्यू जर्सी को शहर से अलग करती है। हार्लेम नदी, पूर्वी और हडसन नदियों के बीच एक और ज्वारीय जलसंयोगी, ब्रोंक्स से मैनहट्टन को अलग करती है। ब्रोंक्स नदी, जो ब्रॉन्कक्‍स और वेस्टचेस्टर काउंटी के माध्यम से बहती है, शहर की एकमात्र, पूर्ण रूप से ताजे पानी की नदी है।

शहर का कुल क्षेत्रफल 468.484 वर्ग मील (1,213.37 वर्ग किलोमीटर) है, जिसमें 302.643 वर्ग मील (783.84 वर्ग किलोमीटर) भूमि और 165.841 वर्ग मील (429.53 वर्ग किलोमीटर) जलक्षेत्र शामिल है।शहर का उच्चतम बिंदु स्टैटन द्वीप पर टॉड हिल है, जो समुद्र तल से 409.8 फीट (124.9 मीटर) ऊपर है।
