B During the lively Paris Olympics, while the spotlight shone on the athletes, a group of unsung heroes worked tirelessly behind the scenes — the Olympic volunteers. This year, out of 300,000 applicants, around 45,000 were chosen as volunteers, with 20 percent coming from nearly 150 countries. These volunteers wore bright green uniforms to be easily seen in the purple stadium. They offered help to viewers and media, making them an important part of the Olympic experience. On my first day as a reporter, I met a technical problem with my media system account. Thankfully, Chinese volunteer Guo came to help me out. “I hope to improve my language, communication skills, and problem-solving methods through this event,” said 24-year-old Guo from Wuhan, Central China’s Hubei Province, who was studying engineering at the Paris Institute of Digital Technology. As a former professional swimmer, Guo saw this as her chance to take part in the Olympics, though in a different role. Another Chinese volunteer, Yang, faced challenges in managing her job and volunteer duties. She felt great pride in contributing to the event. One of my most unforgettable experiences was meeting with a French volunteer. When I needed help to find the visitor center, a young man on a scooter (小型摩托车) appeared, like a sort of “Monkey King riding a cloud”, and offered to take me there. After helping me, he expressed his admiration for the Beijing Olympics and his desire to visit China again. Volunteers like them were seen everywhere — from bus stops to competition stadiums — offering directions and helping with a smile. These amazing volunteers, truly show the Olympic spirit, making the event and Paris shine even brighter. 24. Why might the volunteers wear bright green uniforms? A. To stand out in the crowd. B. To show love for athletes. C. To fit in with the stadiums. D. To stand for their countries. 25. What do we know about Guo? A. She found it hard to balance her job and volunteer work. B. She both swam and volunteered in the Paris Olympics. C. She wanted to improve herself through volunteer work. D. She wasn’t as patient and helpful as the French volunteer. 26. Which words can best describe the volunteers in the Paris Olympics according to the passage? A. Graceful and amazing. B. Warm-hearted and responsible. C. Smart but unprofessional. D. Curious and adventurous. 27. How is the text mainly developed? A. By listing the benefits of volunteer work. B. By discussing historical Olympic events. C. By comparing different views on Olympics. D. By sharing personal stories and experiences. C By now we all know the importance of drinking enough water throughout the day, but there is such a thing as too much. Earlier this summer, a 35-year-old Indianan woman died from water toxicity (水中 毒）after drinking too much water in a short period of time, according to a local news report. While dinking enough water is important, overdoing it can lead to low levels of sodium (钠) in the blood, which can cause danger to our life, according to Julia Zumpano, an expert at Cleveland Clinic’s Center for Human Nutrition. Exactly how much is enough for our body depends on a variety of factors (因素), including our weight, age, location and overall health. People in poor health, or active people such as athletes, are at risk of water toxicity, as they are likely to drink large amounts of water and lose sodium through their sweat. So are women and children because of their smaller body size. While the gold standard has been eight glasses of 8 ounces (盎司) of water a day, the National Academy of Medicine suggests enough water intake be about 125 ounces for men and about 91 ounces for women. And it recommends not drinking more than 48 ounces of water per hour. This includes water from fruits, vegetables and other drinks besides water. If you struggle with getting enough water per day, you can try water bottles to help track your water intake. Eating fruits and vegetables can also increase our water intake. “Most people had better keep drinking water throughout the day, but larger amounts may be needed in the heat for an extended period of time or during exercise. If you are thirsty for water, listen to your body. But don’t overdo it,” says Zumpano. 28. What influence may drinking too much water have on us? A. Becoming fatter. B. Getting older quickly. C. Making us more active. D. Lowering sodium in the blood. 29. Who is most unlikely to suffer from water toxicity? A. An active athlete. B. A small child. C. An unhealthy man. D. A strong man. 30. How much water should we take a day according to the gold standard? A. 8 ounces. B. 48 ounces. C. 64 ounces. D. 125 ounces. 31. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. What is the result of water toxicity? B. How much water is too much? C. Why do you find it difficult to drink enough water? D. How often need we remind ourselves to drink water? D After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started to focus on the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing. Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for only a person to use at a time, often set up near living communities. Every four-square-meter room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower. Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes. The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally nascent. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings. The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP. 32. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one? A. Holding one person at a time. B. Standing in the living communities. C. Offering open spaces. D. Having all advanced equipment. 33. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room? A. Pay 100 yuan first. B. Let down curtains for privacy. C. Take a shower before exercise. D. Book a room ahead of time. 34. What does the underlined word “nascent” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Simple. B. Popular. C. Satisfying. D. New. 35. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To advertise a technology company. B. To introduce shared gym rooms. C. To support the shared gym rooms. D. To predict the future of shared gym rooms. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分， 满分12.5分） 阅读短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many people want to get the benefits of being well-rounded in every aspect of their lives. 36 However, you can become a well-rounded person by actively enriching your experiences.

It felt as though my soul departed (离开) my body and I had no control over it. Anxiously, I looked through the roster (名单) posted on the wall of the locker room. My heart was beating harder and harder as I slowly saw all my friends’ names on that list but could not find mine. At that moment, I froze. I just could not accept that all my friends were on the basketball team while I was not. I believed there was a mistake that I went and found the coach. “Hey, coach, are you sure that the roster you posted is correct?” I asked anxiously, dreading (担心) his answer. “Yes, the names on the list are finalized. Sorry if you did not make it this year, there is always next year,” the coach replied. I could feel the hot, bitter tears filling my eyes, and I ran out of the room as fast as I could. Trying to forget about the situation, I headed over to the cafeteria to buy some food. I felt dead inside, like nothing mattered. Walking was such a burden (负担) that it felt as if I had a 100-pound weight tied to my backpack. My mind was also blank for the rest of the school day. Everything my teachers said went in one ear and out the other. After school, as I walked to the parking lot (停车场) to get picked up, I saw all my friends gathered near the back of the lot, celebrating and joking around. I detoured (绕道) around the side of the school to avoid them, trying not to think about being the only one in our friend group failing to make the team. I saw my father’s red car pull up near the school lot. I walked up to the car and got in. He smiled at me, turned on the radio, and started driving home. And soon he noticed my sad face, and asked me what was wrong. “Nothing. Well, it’s just that all my friends made the school team. Everyone! Except me...” I stammered (口吃). “Well, what are you going to do about it? Are you just going to sit there and wait?” he asked. Surprised, I didn’t know what to say. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I just shook my head and went into my room. ___________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After almost a year of practicing and training, I tried out for the team again. ___________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页 共12页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null报告查询:登录zhixue.com或扫描二维码下载App (用户名和初始密码均为准考证号) 玉溪一中2024—2025学年2027届高一上学期期中考 英语 答题卡 姓名： 班级： 考场/座位号： 注意事项 1．答题前请将姓名、班级、考场、准考证 号填写清楚。 2．客观题答题，必须使用2B铅笔填涂，修 改时用橡皮擦干净。 3.必须在题号对应的答题区域内作答，超出 答题区域书写无效。 正确填涂 缺考标记 考  号             [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] 选择题 1 [A] [B] [C] 2 [A] [B] [C] 3 [A] [B] [C] 4 [A] [B] [C] 5 [A] [B] [C] 6 [A] [B] [C] 7 [A] [B] [C] 8 [A] [B] [C] 9 [A] [B] [C] 10 [A] [B] [C] 11 [A] [B] [C] 12 [A] [B] [C] 13 [A] [B] [C] 14 [A] [B] [C] 15 [A] [B] [C] 16 [A] [B] [C] 17 [A] [B] [C] 18 [A] [B] [C] 19 [A] [B] [C] 20 [A] [B] [C] 21 [A] [B] [C] [D] 22 [A] [B] [C] [D] 23 [A] [B] [C] [D] 24 [A] [B] [C] [D] 25 [A] [B] [C] [D] 26 [A] [B] [C] [D] 27 [A] [B] [C] [D] 28 [A] [B] [C] [D] 29 [A] [B] [C] [D] 30 [A] [B] [C] [D] 31 [A] [B] [C] [D] 32 [A] [B] [C] [D] 33 [A] [B] [C] [D] 34 [A] [B] [C] [D] 35 [A] [B] [C] [D] 36 [A] [B] [C] [D] [E] [F] [G] 37 [A] [B] [C] [D] [E] [F] [G] 38 [A] [B] [C] [D] [E] [F] [G] 39 [A] [B] [C] [D] [E] [F] [G] 40 [A] [B] [C] [D] [E] [F] [G] 41 [A] [B] [C] [D] 42 [A] [B] [C] [D] 43 [A] [B] [C] [D] 44 [A] [B] [C] [D] 45 [A] [B] [C] [D] 46 [A] [B] [C] [D] 47 [A] [B] [C] [D] 48 [A] [B] [C] [D] 49 [A] [B] [C] [D] 50 [A] [B] [C] [D] 51 [A] [B] [C] [D] 52 [A] [B] [C] [D] 53 [A] [B] [C] [D] 54 [A] [B] [C] [D] 55 [A] [B] [C] [D] 语法填空 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 写作 第一节 Dear Sir, Yours, Li Hua 第二节 I just shook my head and went into my room.

B During the lively Paris Olympics, while the spotlight shone on the athletes, a group of unsung heroes worked tirelessly behind the scenes — the Olympic volunteers. This year, out of 300,000 applicants, around 45,000 were chosen as volunteers, with 20 percent coming from nearly 150 countries. These volunteers wore bright green uniforms to be easily seen in the purple stadium. They offered help to viewers and media, making them an important part of the Olympic experience. On my first day as a reporter, I met a technical problem with my media system account. Thankfully, Chinese volunteer Guo came to help me out. “I hope to improve my language, communication skills, and problem-solving methods through this event,” said 24-year-old Guo from Wuhan, Central China’s Hubei 第5页 共 12 页 Province, who was studying engineering at the Paris Institute of Digital Technology. As a former professional swimmer, Guo saw this as her chance to take part in the Olympics, though in a different role. Another Chinese volunteer, Yang, faced challenges in managing her job and volunteer duties. She felt great pride in contributing to the event. One of my most unforgettable experiences was meeting with a French volunteer. When I needed help to find the visitor center, a young man on a scooter (小型摩托车) appeared, like a sort of “Monkey King riding a cloud”, and offered to take me there. After helping me, he expressed his admiration for the Beijing Olympics and his desire to visit China again. Volunteers like them were seen everywhere — from bus stops to competition stadiums — offering directions and helping with a smile. These amazing volunteers, truly show the Olympic spirit, making the event and Paris shine even brighter. 24. Why might the volunteers wear bright green uniforms? A. To stand out in the crowd. B. To show love for athletes. C. To fit in with the stadiums. D. To stand for their countries. 25. What do we know about Guo? A. She found it hard to balance her job and volunteer work. B. She both swam and volunteered in the Paris Olympics. C. She wanted to improve herself through volunteer work. D. She wasn’t as patient and helpful as the French volunteer. 26. Which words can best describe the volunteers in the Paris Olympics according to the passage? A. Graceful and amazing. B. Warm-hearted and responsible. C. Smart but unprofessional. D. Curious and adventurous. 27. How is the text mainly developed? A. By listing the benefits of volunteer work. B. By discussing historical Olympic events. C. By comparing different views on Olympics. D. By sharing personal stories and experiences. C By now we all know the importance of drinking enough water throughout the day, but there is such a thing as too much. Earlier this summer, a 35-year-old Indianan woman died from water toxicity (水中 第6页 共 12 页 毒）after drinking too much water in a short period of time, according to a local news report. While dinking enough water is important, overdoing it can lead to low levels of sodium (钠) in the blood, which can cause danger to our life, according to Julia Zumpano, an expert at Cleveland Clinic’s Center for Human Nutrition. Exactly how much is enough for our body depends on a variety of factors (因素), including our weight, age, location and overall health. People in poor health, or active people such as athletes, are at risk of water toxicity, as they are likely to drink large amounts of water and lose sodium through their sweat. So are women and children because of their smaller body size. While the gold standard has been eight glasses of 8 ounces (盎司) of water a day, the National Academy of Medicine suggests enough water intake be about 125 ounces for men and about 91 ounces for women. And it recommends not drinking more than 48 ounces of water per hour. This includes water from fruits, vegetables and other drinks besides water. If you struggle with getting enough water per day, you can try water bottles to help track your water intake. Eating fruits and vegetables can also increase our water intake. “Most people had better keep drinking water throughout the day, but larger amounts may be needed in the heat for an extended period of time or during exercise. If you are thirsty for water, listen to your body. But don’t overdo it,” says Zumpano. 28. What influence may drinking too much water have on us? A. Becoming fatter. B. Getting older quickly. C. Making us more active. D. Lowering sodium in the blood. 29. Who is most unlikely to suffer from water toxicity? A. An active athlete. B. A small child. C. An unhealthy man. D. A strong man. 30. How much water should we take a day according to the gold standard? A. 8 ounces. B. 48 ounces. C. 64 ounces. D. 125 ounces. 31. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. What is the result of water toxicity? B. How much water is too much? C. Why do you find it difficult to drink enough water? D. How often need we remind ourselves to drink water? 第7页 共 12 页 D After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started to focus on the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing. Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for only a person to use at a time, often set up near living communities. Every four-square-meter room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower. Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes. The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally nascent. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings. The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP. 32. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one? A. Holding one person at a time. B. Standing in the living communities. C. Offering open spaces. D. Having all advanced equipment. 33. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room? A. Pay 100 yuan first. B. Let down curtains for privacy. C. Take a shower before exercise. D. Book a room ahead of time. 34. What does the underlined word “nascent” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Simple. B. Popular. C. Satisfying. D. New. 第8页 共 12 页 35. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To advertise a technology company. B. To introduce shared gym rooms. C. To support the shared gym rooms. D. To predict the future of shared gym rooms. 第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分， 满分 12.5 分） 阅读短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。 Many people want to get the benefits of being well-rounded in every aspect of their lives. 36 However, you can become a well-rounded person by actively enriching your experiences.

It felt as though my soul departed (离开) my body and I had no control over it. Anxiously, I looked through the roster (名单) posted on the wall of the locker room. My heart was beating harder and harder as I slowly saw all my friends’ names on that list but could not find mine. At that moment, I froze. I just could not accept that all my friends were on the basketball team while I was not. I believed there was a mistake that I went and found the coach. “Hey, coach, are you sure that the roster you posted is correct?” I asked anxiously, dreading (担心) his answer. “Yes, the names on the list are finalized. Sorry if you did not make it this year, there is always next year,” the coach replied. I could feel the hot, bitter tears filling my eyes, and I ran out of the room as fast as I could. Trying to forget about the situation, I headed over to the cafeteria to buy some food. I felt dead inside, like nothing mattered. Walking was such a burden (负担) that it felt as if I had a 100-pound weight tied to my backpack. My mind was also blank for the rest of the school day. Everything my teachers said went in one ear and out the other. After school, as I walked to the parking lot (停车场) to get picked up, I saw all my friends gathered near the back of the lot, celebrating and joking around. I detoured (绕道) around the side of the school to avoid them, trying not to think about being the only one in our friend group failing to make the team. I saw my father’s red car pull up near the school lot. I walked up to the car and got in. He smiled at 第12页 共 12 页 me, turned on the radio, and started driving home. And soon he noticed my sad face, and asked me what was wrong. “Nothing. Well, it’s just that all my friends made the school team. Everyone! Except me...” I stammered (口吃). “Well, what are you going to do about it? Are you just going to sit there and wait?” he asked. Surprised, I didn’t know what to say. 注意：1.续写词数应为 150 左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I just shook my head and went into my room. ___________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ After almost a year of practicing and training, I tried out for the team again. ___________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ 玉溪一中2024-2025学年上学期高一年级期中考试 英语学科参考答案 第一部分 听力1-5 BABAC 6-10 CBACB 11-15 BCBAC 16-20 AACBA 第二部分 阅读理解 第一节21-23 BCC 24-27 ACBD 28-31 DDCB 32-35 ADDB 第二节36-40 FGECA 第三部分 语言运用 第一节41-45 DCBCA 46-50 CACDB 51-55 ABDBA 第二节56. failed 57. in 58. extremely 59. who/that 60. a 61. fourth 62. following 63. better 64. improvement/improving 65.it 第四部分 写作 第一节 Dear Sir, I am Li Hua, a student who is studying in senior high school.

Please take my application into consideration. Yours, Li Hua 第二节 I just shook my head and went into my room. “Don’t lose heart. But you need to make great efforts for whatever you want.” My father’s voice sounded outside the door. I thought hard and realized that nobody was going to give me a place on that team. I would have to earn it. Having decided to work toward my goal of making the team, I biked to the gym near my school every day after school and trained for two hours. There were moments when I didn’t think I could keep on going, but my father’s encouragement and the dream of making the team finally helped me go through it. After almost a year of practicing and training, I tried out for the team again. This time，I played much harder and managed to show the best of myself. To my delight, I was recognized by the coach, who said that I showed great talent in sports. The next day, I found out I made the team. Seeing my name printed in large bold letters, I felt as though all my dreams came true. The greater the effort, the sweeter the reward, and by making the team, I had officially made a turnaround. 听力原文： Text 1 M: Why did you buy so many pants? W: The shopping mall opened 10 years ago today, so there’s a 25% discount on all pants now. (1) Text 2 M: I’m going to turn on my air conditioner, and I know that’s going to cool me down. (2) W: I hope it will rain soon. Text 3(第3题为主旨大意题) W: I often buy books on Dangdang. I think it’s very convenient. M: I always do some shopping on the Internet. People can buy whatever they need at home. Text 4 W: Dad, could we bring some carrot sticks to feed the sheep? (4) M: Of course. Feeding is one of the important tasks here. You also help your uncle a lot. Text 5 W: Why are you taking a taxi to work today, Zack? M: My car is running out of gas, so I have to take a taxi to the office. (5) Text 6 W: How is your online shoe business these days? (6) M: Well, not as good as it was at the beginning. W: Oh, why is that? They were selling like hot cakes last year. M: Yes, they were. But now, the classmate whom I have done business with has left because of personal affairs. The new manager refused to give me a low price, and the shoes are always delivered very late. W: I see. Was your classmate the factory manager? M: No, but he was in charge of the sales department. And he could make the decision to sell the shoes to me at a big discount. But now, the new manager is really difficult to deal with. W: Then I guess you have to look for other suppliers. (7) Text 7 M: Hello, Wilson’s Furniture. This is Edward Adam speaking. What can I do for you? W: This is Alma Taylor from Panda Restaurant. We ordered 20 chairs last Wednesday, but we still haven’t received the chairs until now. They were supposed to have arrived by eleven o’clock today. (8) (9) M: I’m terribly sorry about that. The truck driver will be late. W: Could you tell me what happened? M: Just now I made a phone call to the driver. During his delivery, he happened to see an old man lying on the road. He sent the old man to the hospital at once. But he is driving on the way to your restaurant. He said that the chairs would be delivered by two hours later this afternoon. (9) W: Excellent. I’m pleased to hear that. Text 8 W: Hey, Tony. Do you often watch videos on Xiaohongshu? M: Sometimes. They often ask people to give the thumbs-up. Speak of this, does the thumbs-up sign mean something positive in your country? W: No. In Thailand, it means you’re making fun of someone. (11) What about in your country, in America? M: In America, it is a sign of agreement. Do you know any other meanings of gestures in different countries? W: Yes, they are really important during traveling abroad. The OK gesture means money in Japan. (10) It looks rude in Brazil and Germany. In France, it means figure “zero”. M: That’s really surprising. Once I read in a newspaper, it means disagreement if you nod your head. When you shake your head, it means agreement with you. W: That’s weird. Have you ever heard that students aren’t allowed to answer questions unless they reach out their forefingers? M: It’s unbelievable. It makes me confused. (12) Text 9 M: Why didn’t you eat anything on your plate? W: Well, I am not even a bit hungry. M: Is there anything wrong? Isn’t the food in this place good? (13) Are you feeling well? W: Not the chef’s problem. (13) I’ve been really worried about my computer. It’s in the shop again. M: Really? What’s wrong this time? W: I don’t know, exactly. There seems to be something wrong with the system. It restarts several times within half an hour, and I can’t save what I have typed. My paper is due next week. (14) M: That’s too bad. W: Yeah. I need to hand in the paper next Monday, (15) and it’s already Thursday today. Besides, I was only writing half my paper, and everything is in the computer. M: I see. Perhaps you should ask them to get it fixed in just one or two days. Then at least you still have the weekend to work on the paper. (16) W: Yes, I guess you’re right. Thanks. Text 10 At the beginning of the tour, we will start with the most important place, which is the Central Park. It was open to the public in 1871 for the first time. (17) It covers 843 acres. Many movies are set in here. The Central Park is a large public park in New York City. In 2013, it attracted about 40 million visitors. There was a documentary film called Central Park directed by Frederick Wiseman. (18) It shows how people make use of the park — music, theater, sports, picnics, parades and concerts. It is the gathering place for young people to relax themselves: running, boating, walking and skating. It plays an important role in the everyday lives of New York. Here you can find Central Park Zoo, Bethesda Fountain, Sheep Meadow, Strawberry Fields, Conservatory Water and Delacorte Theater. After 1934, the Sheep Meadow became a great place for picnics and sunbathing. (19) Every summer, the performance of Shakespeare’s drama in Delacorte Theater is quite interesting. Visitors coming to New York City are often impressed with Central Park’s beauty and size. It is a wonderful place for visitors to New York City to enjoy a bit of relaxation and get a better sense of what it’s like to live in New York City. (20) 第 1 页 共 9 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
