　　Heartbeat of America

　　1. New York—the Statue of Liberty(自由女神), the skyscrapers, the beautiful shops on Fifth Avenue(第五大街) and the many theaters on Broadway(百老汇). This is America's cultural capital. It is also her biggest city, with a population(人口居民) of nearly 8 million. In the summer it is hot, hot, hot and in the winter it can be very cold. Still there are hundreds of things to do and see all the year round.

　　2. Manhattan(曼哈顿) is the real center of the city. When people say “New York City,” they usually mean Manhattan. Most of the interesting shops, buildings and museums(博物馆) are here. In addition, Manhattan is the scene of New York’s busy night life. In 1605 the first Europeans came to Manhattan from Holland(荷兰). They bought the island from the Native Americans for a few glass necklaces worth about $26 today.

　　3. Wall Street(华尔街) in Manhattan is the financial(金融的) heart of the USA. It is also the most important banking center in the world. It is a street of “skyscrapers.” These are those incredible(难以置信的), high buildings, which Americans invented, and built faster and higher than anyone else. Perhaps the two most spectacular(壮观) skyscrapers in New York are the two towers of the New York World Trade Center. When the sun sets, their 110 floors shine like pure gold.

　　4. Like every big city, New York has its own traffic(交通) system. Traffic jams can be terrible. It's usually quickest to go by subway(地铁). The New York subway is easy to use and quite cheap. The subway goes to almost every corner of Manhattan. But it is not safe to take the subway late a night because in some places you could get robbed(抢劫). New York buses are also easy to use. You see more if you go by bus. There are more than 30,000 taxis in New York. They are easy to see, because they are bright yellow and carry large TAXI signs. Taxis do not go outside the city. However, they will go to the airports. In addition to the taxi fare, people give the taxi driver a tip of 15 percent of the fare's value.

　　5. Central Park is a beautiful green oasis(绿洲) in the middle of New York’s concrete(水泥) desert. It is surprisingly big, with lakes and woods, as well as organized recreation areas. New Yorkers love Central Park, and they use it all the time. In the winter, they go ice-skating, and in the summer roller-skating. They play ball, ride horses and have picnics(野餐). They go bicycling and boating. There is even a children's zoo, with wild birds and animals.

　　6. Along the east side of Central Park runs Fifth Avenue, once called “Millionaire's Row.(百万富翁之街)” In the 19th century, the richest men in America built their magnificent homes here. It is still the most fashionable street in the city, with famous department stores.

　　7. Broadway is the street where you will find New York's best-known theaters. But away from the bright lights and elegant clothes of Broadway are many smaller theaters. Their plays an called “off-Broad-way”and are often more unusual than the Broadway shows. As well as many theaters, New York has a famous opera house. This is the Metropolitan, where international stars sing from September until April. Carnegie Hall is the city's more popular concert hall. But night life in New York offers more than classical music and theater. There are hundreds of nightclubs where people go to eat and dance.

参考答案见下页》》[page]

答案与题解：

A本段i井的是有关华尔街的情况，华尔街是美国的金融中心。

C这一段介绍了纽约的交通设施，如地铁、公共汽车和出租车，以及乘坐时应注意的地方。

F第五段集中介绍了中央公园。

D这一段不长，简单地介绍了纽约的第五大街，这是富人的购物天堂。

F原句在语法上已经完整,填入的部分是有关价格的，当时荷兰人买下曼哈顿的价钱在今 天看来仅是个微不足道的小数。表示价格用介词for,这里for的后面跟的是what引导的名 词性从句。

A这里填入的是和动词go并列的成分,在所给的六个选项中符合条件的只有A和D，但从 意义上看应该填入的是A。

F Central Park — a Place of Recreation for the New Yorkers

E place提示了后面很有可能是一个用where引导的定语从句，在六个选项中有两个用 where开始的从句，但B的意义显然不符，故应选E。

8. C句中的more attractive提示了后面很可能有用than引导的从句。
