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 3.4 km2). 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.

·Croatia:Mljet National Park
Generations of vacationers have heard the song of Dubrovnik, the “Pearl of the Adriatic”. When you are bored with the tourists crowding the Old Town, particularly in the peak summer season, choose the national park located only 15 miles offshore. Blanketed in a pine forest, Mljet Island offers activities like cycling, hiking, kayaking(皮划艇)and swimming in the famous saltwater lakes.
·France:Mercantour National Park
Travel 30 miles from the Riviera and you can discover one of France's last wild areas, a place of great biodiversity and varied landscapes. There's a redrock valley, the grass filled with wildflowers, villages located on sheer rock cliffs, etc. Did we mention the prehistoric rock art? A guided hike through the “Valley of Wonders” shows Bronze Age petroglyphs(岩画)carved in stone.
·Iceland:Vatnajökull National Park
Why go for one volcano when you can explore two? Vatnajökull National Park isn't just a park. This World Heritage Site is formed by volcanic and glacial(冰川的)activities in southeastern Iceland, and covers 14 percent of the country.
·Ireland:Killarney National Park
Created in 1932 as Ireland's first national park, Killarney is a 25,425acre area of mountains, lakes, and woodlands. It's a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve because of its diversity of habitat and species.

(2023·泰安三模)Even though I was no skater, I'd always considered Rochester to be a perfect location for an outdoor skatepark. Despite being a place missing some of the pleasures awarded to bigname cities like New York or Chicago, Rochester developed a doityourself attitude in the pursuit of having fun. 1
When I noticed a skate park was being built under the highway onramp(匝道)downtown, I was excited—not because a skate park is a perfect setting to facilitate the DIY charm of Rochester, acting as a sort of melting pot for people of all walks of life to bond together. 2 I wanted to not only take a closer look at its physical design but also the sort of crowds it attracted.
3 Totally clear of any litter, the half pipes, grind rails, and bowls were designed with a consistent blue and yellow color scheme. There were even multicolored rows of tile(瓦片)that lined the top edge of the park's bowls.
After taking some beautiful photos of the park, I began chatting with Vazquez, manager of the skatepark. 4 “Look at all these people. So many people come here to skate. No matter what the color of your skin, or your beliefs, everyone is brought together here by skating”, he said. 5 While I was walking back over the pavement, the ground under my feet seemed to have a pulse:life's heartbeat could be found at this park.
A.I took a fancy to skating at an early age.
B.He was believed to be a toplevel skater.
C.So, I decided to visit the skatepark for the first time.
D.He enthusiastically and proudly shared something with me.
E.I was struck by how much care went into the park's repair and design.
F.Soon after my conversation with Vazquez was over, I headed to my car.
G.That breathed unique life into the city and gave it a special Rochester flavor.

So many people come here to skate. No matter what the color of your skin, or your beliefs, everyone is brought together here by skating(看看所有这些人。很多人来这里滑冰。无论你的肤色或信仰如何,每个人都是通过滑冰聚集到这里的)”可知,这正是经理与作者分享的自己的观点。D项“他热情而自豪地与我分享了一些东西。”承接上文“我们开始聊天”,开启下文“经理的观点”,故选D。
答案 D
5.解析 下文“While I was walking back over the pavement, the ground under my feet seemed to have a pulse:life's heartbeat could be found at this park.(当我在人行道上往回走的时候,脚下的地面似乎有了脉搏:在这个公园里可以找到生命的心跳。)”表明,他们的谈话结束了,作者在往回走的路上。F项“在我和经理的谈话结束后不久,我就走向我的车。”表示谈话刚结束,发生在下文之前,符合时间顺序,故选F。
