D．Itwasbuiltbyabusinesswoman.參考答案(A)1.C根據HomeAfterDarkbyDavidSmall(Liveright,Sept.11)中的OnSept.11at3p.m.,SmallwillbeatAmazonBooksatUnionMarket.可知,這本書的作者要去現場售書,如果你希望得到作者的簽名,你可能去買一本HomeAfterDark。故選C項。2.A根據WaitingforEdenbyElliotAckerman(Knopf,Sept.25)中的Thatsoundsembarrassinglyemotional,butAckerman,whoservedinanavyinIraqandAfghanistan,isoneofthebestsoldier-writersofhisgeneration.可知,ElliotAckerman參過軍并被派往中東。故選A項。3.B根據AllYouCanEverKnowbyNicoleChung(Catapult,Oct.2)中的Chung,editoroftheliterarymagazineCatapult,wasadoptedasababybyawhitefamilyinOregon.和Moreinformationatwww./politics-prose.可知,如果你想讀非小說類的書,你可以登錄/politics-prose。故選B項。(B)1.A根據對第一條路線CommunityDaysatConferenceHousePark的介紹:Experiencekidscrafts,adultartprograms,TaiChiandmoreinthislovelysetting.可知,我們可以體驗兒童藝術作品、成人藝術節目、太極拳等。其中的太極拳屬于中國文化,所以答案為A項。2.D根據對第二條路線GreenbeltontheGo的描述:Registrationisrequired.可知,這條線路需要提前報名,故選D項。3.B根據第一段中的VisitourpagetofindsomeofthebestfreewalkingtoursacrossNewYorkCity.可知,這四條步行路線都是免費的,故選B項。(C)1.B根據文章SpaceNeedle部分內容“Atthetop,youcanreadfunfactsabouttheNeedleandinteractwithahuge,touchscreen‘SkyPad’—nottomentionadmiringincredible360-degreeviewsofthecity.(在頂端,你可以閱讀關于針塔的有趣事實,并與一個巨大的觸摸屏“SkyPad”互動——更不用說欣賞不可思議的360度城市景觀了。)”可知在這里可以欣賞到城市全景。故選B項。2.A根據文章ChihulyGardenandGlass部分內容“LocatedrightnexttotheSpaceNeedle,...sculptureincolorsofred,orangeandyellow.”可知,后句中提及的“his”應是指代前句中提及的DaleChihuly,且后句中提到了“a100-foot-longglasssculptureincolorsofred,orangeandyellow(一個100英尺長的玻璃雕塑,顏色有紅色、橙色和黃色)”應是他的作品,故可以推知DaleChihuly應是一位藝術家。故選A項。3.C根據文章PostAlley部分內容“Thewallwassweptcleanin2015...gettooclose.(墻在2015年被打掃干凈了,但你現在不會知道。這里提供了一個拍照的好機會——但別走得太近。)”可知,墻上現在又粘滿了嚼過的口香糖。故選C項。(D)1.B根據OpeningHours部分中Monday—Sunday:9a.m.—5p.m.(lastentryat4:30p.m.)可知,星期一至星期日:上午9點到下午5點(最后可進入時間是下午4時30分)以及It'sclosedonNewYear'sDayandChristmasDay.(元旦和圣誕節不營業)可知,1月3日下午12:30可以進入HMNS進行訪問。故選B項。2.A根據Pricing部分中AdultTicket:$25(ages12andup);ChildTicket:$16(ages3-11)可知,成人票:25美元(12歲及以上);兒童票:16美元(3歲到11歲)。由此可知,Tom和他8歲和13歲的兩個兒子總共應該付25+25+16=66美元給HMNS。故選A項。3.D根據第二段中TheMuseumcanbequitecrowdedonweekendsandweekdaymornings,duetothehundredsofthousandsofstudentsthatvisitHMNSeachyear.可知,博物館在周末和工作日的早上會很擁擠,因為每年有成千上萬的學生參觀HMNS。由此可知,喜歡安靜的人最好在工
