阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Many years ago, Manhattan Island,       is a part of the great city of New York,    (cover) with forest. Along its shores were small Indian villages. In fact, Indians were the only people on the island until 1609. In the spring of that year, Henry Hudson, a famous sea captain, arrived there. He was trying to find a short way to the Far East for Dutch traders. His ship was very small. It was only about the size of one of the     (lifeboat) you see on modern ocean liners today. Of course, Henry Hudson did not find a      (short) way to the Far East. Instead he reached the shores of North America. He came to the mouth of the large waterway now     (call) the Hudson River.
As he came near to the shore, he saw      Indian village. The Indians seemed     (friend). They even came out to meet the ship and offered      furs to the Dutch sailor in exchange for glass beads and    small things. When Henry Hudson returned to Holland, he showed everyone the fine furs. He told of the rich soil, and the streams filled with fish. Later Dutch traders began to send many ships     the rich new world across the sea.
