Despite the distance the islands actually make up the fiftieth state of the United States. The islands were all formed by volcanic eruption（火山喷发）and on the largest of the islands, Hawaii, or the Big Island, there are still two active volcanoes, the Mauna Lao and the Kilauea, which still erupt every few years.On the Hawaii islands the natives have a particularly strange way of indicating directions. They dont use the north, south, east and west system common to the rest of the world. They use themaukaandmakaisystem.Maukameans “mountain”. The mountains in Hawaii are always at the centre of the islands, as these are volcanic islands.Makaimeans “the sea”. The islands are small and the system is simple. Wherever you want to visit, it can always be described in terms of where it lies in relation to the mountains and the sea. A typical conversation between a native Hawaiian and a tourist might go as follows.TOURIST: Excuse me! Could you tell me where the Sheraton Hotel is?HAWAIIAN: WellLet me see! From here its two blocksmauka,and then one blockmakai. You cant miss it.46.
