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.

From 6 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on weekdays.

When you choose a friend， you should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck， but when you are down， they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend I look for certain qualities of character， especially understanding， honesty and reliability（可靠）.
Above all else， I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead， he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place， and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.
At the same time， however， a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults（过错）in others. He notices their good points. In short， good friends will be honest to each other and accept each other.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time， I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor， he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble， he will not run away from me.
There is fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives， and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor， too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable， honest， and understanding， I know I’ve found a friend!

C
In the US, tornadoes(龙卷风） are responsible for 80 deaths and more than 1,500 injuries each year. Although they happen quite frequently, tornadoes are difficult to predict. Why Tornadoes develop from storms, but only some storms are likely to become tornadoes. Scientists don’t know where and when a storm will touch the ground and turn into a tornado. Today, the warning time for a tornado is usually just 13 minutes.
Time Samaras is a storm chaser. His job is to find tornados and follow them.When he gets close to a tornado, he puts a special tool called a turtle probe on the ground. This tool measures things like a tornado’s temperature, humidity (湿度), and wind speed. With this information, Samaras can learn what causes tornadoes to develop. If meteorologists(气象学家) understand this, they can warn people about tornadoes sooner and save lives.
How does Samaras hunt tornadoes It’s not easy. First, he has to find one Tornadoes are too small to see using weather satellites. So Samaras can’t rely on these tools to find a tornado. Instead, he waits for tornadoes to develop. Every May and June, Samaras drivers about 40,000 kilometers aross an area known as ToknownTornado Alley, looking and hoping to spot a tornado.
Once Samaras sees a tornado, the chase begins. But a tornado is hard to follow. Some tornadoes change direction several times—for example,moving east and then west and then east again. When Sanaras finally gets near a tonrnado, he puts the turtle probe on the ground. Being this close to a tornado is terrifying. Debris (碎片) is flying in the air . Then wind is blowing at high speed. He must get away quickly.
The work is risky, even for a skilled chaser like Samaras. But danger won’t stop his hunt for the perfect storm.
7 What do we know about tornadoes
A. They can be predicted by satellites. B. They usually come down in winter
C. The warning time for them is very short . D. They often develop into storms.
8. A turtle probe is used to .
A. predict tornadoes B. collect information about tornadoes
C. chase tornadoes D. decrease the power of tornadoes
9. The third paragraph is mainly about .
A. how tornadoes develop B. how the turtle probe works
C. how powerful Tornado Alley is D. how Samaras chases a tornado
10. According to the text the job of a tornado chaser is .
A. difficult and dangerous B. stressful and troublesome
C. mysterious and interesting D. exciting and popular
【答案】7. C 8. B 9. D 10. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了Time Samaras如何追踪龙卷风，以及龙卷风的一些相关知识。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一自然段最后两句“Scientists don’t know where and when a storm will touch the ground and turn into a tornado. Today, the warning time for a tornado is usually just 13 minutes.”（科学家们不知道风暴会在何时何地接触到地面然后变成龙卷风。目前，龙卷风的警报时间通常只有13分种）中的“only”可推测出，龙卷风预报时间很短。故选C项。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二自然段中的“This tool measures things like a tornado’s temperature, humidity (湿度), and wind speed. With this information, Samaras can learn what causes tornadoes to develop.”（这个工具可以测量龙卷风的温度，适度和风速。有了这些信息，Samaras就可以了解到什么造成了龙卷风的形成）可知，turtle probe是测量龙卷风相关数据的工具。故选B项。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三自然段第一句“How does Samaras hunt tornadoes”（他是如何追踪龙卷风的呢？）这个问句和下文叙述的内容可知，整个第三自然段除了该句都是在回答这个问题，所以本段是关于samaras如何追踪龙卷风的描写。D项：how Samaras chases a tornado（samaras如何追踪龙卷风）符合本段主题。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段中的But a tornado is hard to follow. Some tornadoes change direction several times（但是龙卷风很难追踪，有些龙卷风会几次改变方向）和最后段中的The work is risky, even for a skilled chaser like Samaras.（这项工作是有风险的，甚至是对于Samaras这样有经验的追踪者来说也是如此）可知，这项工作是困难且危险的。故选A项。

When you choose a friend， you should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck， but when you are down， they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend I look for certain qualities of character， especially understanding， honesty and reliability（可靠）.
Above all else， I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead， he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place， and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.
At the same time， however， a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults（过错）in others. He notices their good points. In short， good friends will be honest to each other and accept each other.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time， I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor， he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble， he will not run away from me.
There is fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives， and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor， too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable， honest， and understanding， I know I’ve found a friend!

In the US, tornadoes(龙卷风） are responsible for 80 deaths and more than 1,500 injuries each year. Although they happen quite frequently, tornadoes are difficult to predict. Why Tornadoes develop from storms, but only some storms are likely to become tornadoes. Scientists don’t know where and when a storm will touch the ground and turn into a tornado. Today, the warning time for a tornado is usually just 13 minutes.
Time Samaras is a storm chaser. His job is to find tornados and follow them.When he gets close to a tornado, he puts a special tool called a turtle probe on the ground. This tool measures things like a tornado’s temperature, humidity (湿度), and wind speed. With this information, Samaras can learn what causes tornadoes to develop. If meteorologists(气象学家) understand this, they can warn people about tornadoes sooner and save lives.
How does Samaras hunt tornadoes It’s not easy. First, he has to find one Tornadoes are too small to see using weather satellites. So Samaras can’t rely on these tools to find a tornado. Instead, he waits for tornadoes to develop. Every May and June, Samaras drivers about 40,000 kilometers aross an area known as ToknownTornado Alley, looking and hoping to spot a tornado.
Once Samaras sees a tornado, the chase begins. But a tornado is hard to follow. Some tornadoes change direction several times—for example,moving east and then west and then east again. When Sanaras finally gets near a tonrnado, he puts the turtle probe on the ground. Being this close to a tornado is terrifying. Debris (碎片) is flying in the air . Then wind is blowing at high speed. He must get away quickly.
The work is risky, even for a skilled chaser like Samaras. But danger won’t stop his hunt for the perfect storm.
7. What do we know about tornadoes
A. They can be predicted by satellites. B. They usually come down in winter
C. The warning time for them is very short . D. They often develop into storms.
8. A turtle probe is used to .
A. predict tornadoes B. collect information about tornadoes
C. chase tornadoes D. decrease the power of tornadoes
9. The third paragraph is mainly about .
A. how tornadoes develop B. how the turtle probe works
C. how powerful Tornado Alley is D. how Samaras chases a tornado
10. According to the text ,the job of a tornado chaser is .
A difficult and dangerous B. stressful and troublesome
C. mysterious and interesting D. exciting and popular
