Central Park
Explore Central Park, one of the largest city parks in the world and one of the most famous symbols of New York. Let’s have a look at its main sights.
Central Park is New York’s largest city park and one of the biggest in the world, with an area of 843 acres (about 3.4km2). This park is home to man-made lakes, waterfalls, grass and wooded areas. You will also find the Central Park Zoo, among other attractions in this greenspace of New York.
Besides being the city’s primary green lungs, Central Park is also a favorite spot for many New Yorkers. It is perfect for sunbathing, going for walks, or doing any outdoor sports. Something that we found curious is seeing so many people running with their babies in prams (婴儿车).
On Foot or by Bicycle
To get to know some of the wildest parts of Central Park we suggest walking. However, to get a general feel for the whole park, the best thing to do is hire a bicycle and enjoy the scenery.
If you decide to hire a bike, you will find lots of bike rental stores around Central Park that are not very expensive.

Each time I see a balloon, my mind flies back to a memory of when I was a six-year-old girl. It was a rainy Sunday and my father had recently died. I asked my mom if Dad had gone to heaven. "Yes, honey. Of course." she said. "Can we write him a letter?"
She paused, the longest pause of my short life, and answered, "Yes."
My heart jumped. "How? Does the mailman go there?" I asked.
"No, but I have an idea." Mom drove to a party store and returned with a red balloon. I asked her what it was for.
"Just wait, honey. You'll see." Mom told me to write my letter. Eagerly, I got my favorite pen, and poured out my six-year-old heart in the form of blue ink. I wrote about my day, what I learned at school, how Mom was doing, and even about what happened in a story I had read. For a few minutes it was as if Dad were still alive. I gave the letter to Mom. She read it over, and a smile crossed her face.
She made a hole in the corner of the letter where she looped the balloon string. We went outside and she gave me the balloon. It was still raining. "Okay, on the count of three, let go. One, two, three."
The balloon, carrying my letter, darted upward against the rain. We watched until it was swallowed by the mass of clouds.
Later I realized, like the balloon, that Dad had never let his sickness get him down. He was strong. No matter what he suffered, he'd persevere, hang on, and finally transcend this cold world and his sick body. He rose into sky and became something beautiful. I watched until the balloon disappeared into the gray and white and I prayed that his strength was hereditary. I prayed to be a balloon.

Mention the word superhero, and the images that come to mind are of fictional
characters like Spiderman, Wonder Woman, or Batman. However, photographer Josh Rossi has used his camera to show the world’s real superheroes — young children who are battling severe diseases and disabilities.
The event leading to the creative project began in 2016, when Rossi fulfilled his then three-year-old daughter’s dream of becoming Wonder Woman. Thanks to the handmade costume and Rossi’s impressive Photoshop skills, the photoshoot instantly became a hit.
Since it was Wonder Woman that brought about the idea, Rossi decided to focus on the superheroes that will appear alongside her in the upcoming movie, Justice League. To make the photoshoot more meaningful to the kids, he matched each child with a superhero with whom they had the most in common.
The first member of the real-life “Justice League” was Kayden Kinckle. The five-year-old uses prosthetics (假肢) to walk because both his legs had to be cut off due to a born disorder. To Rossi, Kayden’s perfect superhero was Cyborg, who was a healthy boy before a terrible accident left him injured, forcing his father to keep him alive with robotic parts.
Teagan Pettit was born with only half a heart and has already gone through three
open-heart surgeries. According to Rossi, the nine-year-old fits the bill for Superman because they both have a weak heart. The fictional superhero grows weak when near Kryptonite (氪), while Teagen’s half heart is too weak to control his body temperature. The photographer says, “Superman and Teagan both have hearts of steel!”
8．What led Rossi to begin his heartwarming project?
A．He was a big fan of superheroes.
B．He photographed his daughter as Wonder Woman.
C．He was asked by many parents to film their children.
D．He wanted to advertise the upcoming movie.
9．Kayden is similar to ________ according to Rossi.
A．Cyborg. B．Wonder Woman. C．Teagan. D．Batman. 10．What does the underlined phrase “fits the bill for” in the last paragraph mean? A．loves. B．matches. C．orders. D．watches. 11．What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．A Superhero Photographer B．Fictional Superheroes
C．Fans of Superheroes D．Real-life Superheroes
Compared to saving the rainforests, or helping pandas to produce young, linguistic ecology (语言生态) might not seem very exciting. One language is becoming extinct every fortnight — so what？“Why should we care？”is a common reaction. Here are a few reasons why you should.
Identity: Many speakers of minority languages are fiercely proud of their language. Language forms an important part of anyone's identity. Nerys Jenkins in Belfast says, “Telling me not to speak Wels h would be like telling me not to breathe: I just couldn't do it.” To let someone's language die out is to let part of their identity die too.
Culture: Language is connected with culture — if a nation loses a language, it may also lose its links with a tradition of jokes, music and literature. Elizabeth MacDonald from Arisaig says Scottish Gaelic is “... our language, the most important part of an ancient culture which has somehow survived despite many persecutions (迫害) over the centuries. It is a culture rich in story, song and poetry, beloved of those familiar with it.”
Knowledge: Languages harbor all kinds of human knowledge — including useful biological or medical information that we might not find out about otherwise. In the Micmac language, for example, trees are named after the sound they make in the wind. The names change as the sounds change, so, if an elderly Micmac speaker remembers that a certain kind of tree used to have one name, but is now called something else, this can show the effects of acid rain on that species. Lose Micmac and you will lose that understanding.
Of the 6,000 or so languages in the world, more than half are expected to die within the next century, and many more are disappearing. It's estimated (估计) that two languages die out every month. It's easy to think of dying and extinct languages as just facts and figures, but behind every one, there are real people. The online Ethnologue database, for example, says of one Syrian language：“The last speaker died in 1998. His daughter kno ws Mlahsö well, but is nearly deaf and has no one to speak it to.”
12．What do Nerys Jenkins's words suggest?
A．He takes pride in his language.
B．He doesn't know other languages.
C．He can't find his identity in Wales.
D．He'll die if not allowed to speak Welsh.
13．What do we know about language from paragraph 3?
A．It builds a nation's spirit.
B．It forms a nation's tradition.
C．It keeps people in touch with the classics.
D．It connects people from different nations.
14．What do the tree name changes imply?
A．Languages develop very fast.
B．The air pollution is getting worse.
C．The number of Micmac speakers is dropping.
D．People of different ages speak different languages.
15．What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．Mlahsö is no longer in existence.
B．The extinction of languages matters little.
C．Languages die with the disappearance of facts.
D．Languages are disappearing at a surprising speed.
二、七选五
Muzak
The next time you go into a bank, a store, or a supermarket, stop and listen. What do you hear? 16．. It's similar to the music you listen to, but it's not exactly the same. That's because this music was especially designed to relax you, or to give you extra energy. Sometimes you don't even realize the music is playing, but you react to the music anyway.
Quiet background music used to be called "elevator (电梯) music" because we often heard it in elevators. But lately we hear it in more and more places, and it has a new name "Muzak". About one-third of the people in America listen to "Muzak" every day. The music plays for 15 minutes at a time, with short pauses in between. It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning, and between three and four in the afternoon, when people are more tired. 17．.
If you listen to Muzak carefully, you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs. Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzak, but others are happy when their songs are chosen. Why? 18．.
Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel. It has been proven that Muzak doeswhat it is designed to do. Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background. 19．. Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.
20．. They say it's boring to hear the same songs all the time. But other people enjoy hearing Muzak in public places. They say it helps them relax and feel calm. One way or another, Muzak affects everyone. Some farmers even say their cows give more milk when they hear Muzak!
A．Some people don't like Muzak.
B．The music gives them extra energy.
C．Music is playing in the background.
D．Factory workers produce 13 percent more.
E.Muzak tends to help people understand music better.
F.They get as much as $4 million a year if their songs are used.
G.Muzak is played in most of the big supermarkets in the world.

【分析】
本文是一篇说明文，文章主要说明了写日记对于提高英语写作水平有很大的帮助，以及用英
语记日记所遇到的困难以及解决方法。

41．
考查形容词。

句意：用英语记日记是提高我们英语写作能力的有效方法之一。

修饰名词ways 用形容词形式，useful ways表示“有用的方法”。

故填useful。

42．
考查过去分词。

句意:与其他写作形式相比，它更短，花费更少的时间。

compared with/to “与……相比”，是固定用法，常在句中作状语。

故填Compared。

43．
考查连词。

句意：如果我们坚持这样做，慢慢地我们就会学会用英语来表达自己。

根据语境并分析句子结构可知，前半句表示的是一种条件，此处应用if引导条件状语从句。

故填if。

44．
考查反身代词。

句意：如果我们坚持这样做，慢慢地我们就会学会用英语来表达自己。

express oneself “表达自己的思想感情”，是固定短语，所以填反身代词ourselves。

故填ourselves。

45．
考查冠词。

句意：首先，经常发生的是，我们很难找到合适的单词和短语来表达我们的思想。

从后面的secondly可以判断出这里要表示顺序，所以序数词first前用定冠词。

in the first place“首先”为固定短语。

故填the。

46．
考查动名词。

句意：首先，经常发生的是，我们很难找到合适的单词和短语来表达我们的思想。

have trouble (in) doing sth. 表示“做某事有麻烦/困难”，是固定搭配，所以此处动词用动名词形式，故填finding。

47．
考查副词。

句意：我们很难把它们正确地译成英语。

修饰动词短语put…into应用副词形式。

故填properly。

48．
考查名词单复数。

句意：据我所知，我的建议是我们应该随时准备一本笔记本和一本汉英词典。

空前有形容词性物主代词，所以要用名词形式suggestion；由is可知要用单数形式。

故填suggestion。

49．
考查时态。

句意：每当有事情困扰我们，我们可以先把它放在我们的笔记本，然后查阅我们
的字典。

结合全文的基本时态可知，应用一般现在时；又因从句主语为something，谓语动词需要用单数形式，故填troubles。

50．
考查介词。

句意：总之，我认为用英语记日记对提高写作能力是很有用的。

“be of+抽象名词”是固定用法，其意义相当于该名词的同根形容词；be of great use相当于be greatly useful。

故填of。

51．when
52．spellbound
53．on
54．had seen
55．that
56．less

句意：我记得非常清楚，以前，湛蓝的天空、鸟儿的歌唱、月光和鲜花，从未令我心迷神往过。

句中先行词为time，在定语从句中作时间状语，所以用关系副词when 引导。

故填when。
