My friend was waiting for me when my plane landed at Kennedy Airport at three o’clock in the afternoon. The weather was very cold and it was snowing, but I was too excited to mind. From the airport, my friend and I took a taxi to my hotel. On the way, I saw the skyline of Manhattan for the first time and I stared in astonishment at the famous skyscrapers（高楼大厦） and their man-made beauty. My friend helped me unpack at the hotel and then left me because he had to go back to work. He promised to return the next day.Shortly after my friend had left, I went to a restaurant near the hotel to get something to eat. Because I couldn’t speak a word of English, I couldn’t tell the waiter what I wanted. I was very upset and started to make some gestures, but the waiter didn’t understand me. Finally, I ordered the same thing the man at the next table was eating. After dinner, I started to walk along Broadway until I came to Times Square with its movie theatres, neon lights, and huge crowds of people. I did not feel tired, so I continued to walk around the city. I wanted to see everything on my first day. I knew it was impossible, but I wanted to try.When I returned to the hotel, I was exhausted, but I couldn’t sleep because I kept hearing the fire and police sirens during the night. I lay awake and thought about New York. It was a very big and interesting city with many tall buildingsand big cars, and full of noise and busy people. I also decided right then thatI had to learn to speak English.1.

And most people live too far from downtown to travel by bike．The city government has not yet decided what to do．It wants to keep everyone happy．Only on weekends, Central Park is closed to cars，and the roads may be used by bicycles only．But Bike for a Better City says this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown．6．According to the passage，bicycles___D_____.A．are more convenient than cars B．are safer traffic tools than carsC．are ridden by most people in the U．S． D．are the solution to some city problems7．The idea of special bicycle lanes is most favored by___B______.A．the city government B．some bike ridersC．people living far from downtown D．some store owners8．“Bicycle lanes” in the third paragraph probably means __C____.A. narrow passages between buildings for bicycles B．roads full ofbicyclesC. special parts of the road for bicycle riders only D．roads for bicycles only9．Which of the following is not true according to the passage?

Many American colleges and universities have been offering（提供） it for years.One example is New York University in Manhattan. The School of Continuing and Professional Studies began online classes in nineteen ninety-two. Its Virtual （虚拟的）College has taught more than ten thousand students from across the United States and other countries.Last year, the School of Continuing and Professional Studies launched NYU Online. It offers NYU's first online programs to earn a bachelor's degree. Programs are offered in three areas: leadership and management, information systems management and social sciences. University officials say classes are highly interactive,（交互性） where students communicate with each other and their teachers. Some classes require students to all log in at the same time so they can attend live lectures by a professor. Students can also ask questions and work together on team projects. The university says classes are taught by NYU professors who have been trained in online teaching.International students must take two admissions tests before they can be accepted into the program. These are the SAT （Scholastic Assessment Test）and the TOEFL. We will discuss these tests later in our series.The cost to attend NYU Online depends on how many classes a student takes. It can cost as much as fifteen thousand dollars a year. NYU offers no financial aid （奖学金补助）for international students in this program.
