If you're living in or visiting New York, take a few hours to visit one of these places to ice skate during your time in New York City.
Bank of America Winter Village at Bryant Park
The free rink (溜冰馆) in Manhattan's Bryant Park first opened in 2005. At 17,000 square feet, it is about half the size of the Wollman Rink in Central Park and twice as big as the rink at Rockefeller Center. As Manhattan's only free skating rink, and centrally located at that, it tends to be mobbed (围聚) with waits up to 2 hours on weekend days.

Riverbank Stile Park Ice Skating Rink

Admission is $5 for adults, children $3. Skate rental is $6.
The Ice Rink at Rockefeller Center
Ice skating at Rockefeller Center is a truly unique New York holiday staple (重要内容). It is the most sumptuous (豪华的) setting for skating. Since opening on Christmas Day back in 1936, this skating rink has been an institution at the Rockefeller.

When Sally Millsopp, 53, with her 17-year-old daughter, Eleanor, participated in Race for Life in 2019. She had no idea if she would get to see her mother Jennifer Earnshaw again, who was desperately ill with a form of lung cancer, but she encouraged the pair to take part in the event as she knew the fundraising would help others.
They managed to make it back to her bedside just in time to show her the photographs. Jennifer, who was a former head teacher, passed away the following day, aged 76.
Ms Millsopp and her daughter are once again participating in the Race for Life on May 13 this year to the memory of Jennifer, and will be speaking on stage to inspire others.
“Mum was a selfless person. I knew she really wanted us to do Race for Life but it was hard not knowing if I would be there with her at the end. When we reached the finish line, Eleanor and I both felt elated that we’d done something so positive at such a sad time. We had a big hug and knew it was something Mum would be proud of,” said Ms Millsopp.
One in two people in the UK will be diagnosed with cancer, but the good news is more people are surviving the disease now than ever before. Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life, in partnership with Tesco, is an inspiring women—only series of 5k, 10k, Pretty Muddy and Hiking events which raise millions of pounds every year to help beat cancer sooner by funding vital research.
Gemma Turpin, Cancer Research UK’s Norwich event manager, said, “We are very grateful to Sally and Eleanor for their story that highlights how special Race for Life is to people. By following them, women in Norfolk can make a real difference in the fight against cancer. Money raised through Race for Life is helping beat over 200 different types of cancer—that’s why every step, every person and every penny raised counts.

Our house was across the street from a hospital. We rented the upstairs rooms to outpatients at the clinic. One summer evening as I was preparing supper, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly awful looking man hardly taller than my eight-year-old daughter.
But the frightening thing was his swollen face. He told me that he’d been hunting for a room since noon but no one seemed to have a room. For a moment I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: “I could sleep on the porch (门廊). My bus leaves early in the morning.”
I went inside and finished getting supper. When we were ready, I asked him to join us. “No, thank you. I have plenty.” And he held up a brown paper bag. When I had finished the dishes, I went out to talk with him for a few minutes.
He told me he fished for a living to support his daughter, who was hopelessly disabled, and her five children. He didn’t tell it by way of complaint; in fact, he was grateful that no pain accompanied his disease. He thanked life for giving him the strength to keep going.
At bedtime, we put a small camp bed in the children’s room for him. When I got up in the morning, the bed linens were neatly folded and the little man was out on the porch. He refused breakfast, but just before he left, he smiled, “Your children made me feel at home. Grownups are bothered by my face, but children don’t seem to mind.” I told him he was welcome to come again.
In the years he came to stay overnight with us there was never a time that he did not bring us fish or vegetables. Other times we received packages. Knowing that he must walk three miles to mail these, and knowing how little money he had made the gifts more precious. I know our family always will be grateful to have known him; from him we learned what it was to accept the bad without complaint and the good with gratitude.

D．He often came to offer the author help from then on.
31．What is the best title of the text?
A．A precious gift. B．A caring family.
C．A generous fisherman. D．An unspoken complaint.

52．阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
My family and I go to the Big Island of Hawaii in the United States every year. Each year, we do the same things-spend time at the beaches, surfing and fishing. On this trip, however, my family got tired of this holiday style and wanted to do something different. We learned from a local that there was a hot spring on the island called the Boiling Pots. Without doing any research, we decided to set off on an adventure to that spot.
We drove to the destination, but were surprised to find that the area was closed off by a fence (栅栏). Reading the sign placed in front of the gate, we found out it was, in fact, a forbidden area that lay at the bottom of the mountain. And we were on the mountaintop. Seemingly out of nowhere, a strange man came up to us. He told us he would go to the Boiling Pots and that he would show us the way down there if we would just jump over the fence and follow him. After some discussion, my family, 8 members, followed the man past the fence.
The ''path'' was a slope (斜坡) covered in mud and high grass. Several times, our members fell but nobody gave up and turned back because it seemed an amazing adventure.
After about one hour's walk, we arrived at the bottom finally, but a large river stopped us. The strange man went to borrow a boat from his friend living nearby. We stood on the bank, waiting for him and joking that we could swim across the river.
Just then, I heard the voice of my father screaming at us to move. I looked up to the sky and saw a large tree falling towards us. I ran forward, pushing the people in front of me. I fell to the ground, hearing a loud sound of the tree hitting the ground, along with pieces of branches surrounding us.

29．推理判断题。根据第一段“I opened it to see a truly awful looking man hardly taller than my eight-year-old daughter.”（我打开门，看到一个长相非常可怕的男人，几乎没有我八岁的女儿高。）以及第二段“But the frightening thing was his swollen face. He told me that he’d been hunting for a room since noon but no one seemed to have a room. ”（但最可怕的是他那肿胀的脸。他告诉我从中午他就一直在找房间，但似乎谁也没有房间。）可知，可能因为他丑陋的长相，房东们不愿意让他住下。故选A项。
30．细节理解题。根据最后一段“In the years he came to stay overnight with us there was never a time that he did not bring us fish or vegetables. Other times we received packages. Knowing that he must walk three miles to mail these, and knowing how little money he had made the gifts more precious.”（在他来和我们一起过夜的那些年里，他从来没有一次不给我们带鱼或蔬菜。其他时候我们收到包裹。知道他必须走三英里路才能邮寄这些礼物，知道他的钱是那么少，所以这些礼物更珍贵了。）可知，对于那个老人来说，他不辞辛劳地给作者送礼物。故选C项。
31．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“In the years he came to stay overnight with us there was never a time that he did not bring us fish or vegetables. Other times we received packages. Knowing that he must walk three miles to mail these, and knowing how little money he had made the gifts more precious. I know our family always will be grateful to have known him; from him we learned what it was to accept the bad without complaint and the good with gratitude.”（这些年来，他来我们家过夜，每次都给我们带来鱼和蔬菜。有时我们会收到包裹。知道他必须走三英里路才能邮寄这些礼物，知道他的钱是那么少，所以这些礼物更珍贵了。我知道，我们全家都会因为认识了他而心存感激；从他身上我们学到了什么是不抱怨地接受坏的，带着感激的心情接受好的。）可知，渔夫来作者家过夜，为了回报作者一家，每次来都会带各种礼物，此外，渔夫的出现是上帝赠予作者的很好的礼物，因为他教会了作者“感恩，不能以貌取人，心灵美”等诸多道理，所以A项“一份珍贵的礼物”可以作为本文的标题。故选A项。

【分析】这是一篇说明文。美国的劳动节是每年九月的第一个星期一。它有着丰富的以工人为中心的历史。虽然大多数美国人可能认为劳动节是一个独特的美国经历，但实际上，劳动节起源于加拿大。文章主要介绍了美国的劳动节的历史。

42．考查副词。句意：虽然大多数美国人可能认为劳动节是一个独特的美国经历，但实际上，劳动节起源于加拿大。修饰后文动词consider，应用副词possibly，作状语。故填possibly。
43．考查代词。句意：虽然大多数美国人可能认为劳动节是一个独特的美国经历，但实际上，劳动节起源于加拿大。修饰后文名词origins应用形容词性物主代词its。故填it。
44．考查时态语态。句意：1870年，多伦多因劳工冲突而举行游行，以支持反对每周58小时工作制的罢工。根据后文in 1872可知用一般过去时，主语与谓语动词构成被动关系，用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为parade，谓语用单数。故填was。

52．Paragraph 1:
In a second all went quiet. I slowly got up, looking around to see if anyone was hurt. However, one person did it faster than me. It was my father. He rushed to us, asking us, ''Is everyone OK?'' His voice was full of anxiety and love. Luckily, all were safe, except my little sister who had injured her left knee. We all surrounded her to check whether she could walk normally. She tried to stand up but failed because of the ache.
Paragraph 2:
When we had no idea what to do, the strange man came back. He said that the moment he heard the loud sound, he returned immediately. Seeing what we had experienced, he said sorry to us again and again, and told us the dangerous situation could be the reason why the area was a forbidden one. We had to give up our plan to the hot spring. With the strange man's help, we made a little ''bed'' with the branches, and carried my little sister back finally. What an adventure!
【分析】这是一篇读后续写。文章讲述了作者和家人在旅途中因为厌倦了每年相同的度假模式，跟着陌生人去寻找“温泉”的冒险经历。
【详解】续写分为两个部分。第一部分的开头是：一瞬间，一切都安静了……所以可以接着写：我慢慢站起来，四处张望，看有没有人受伤。但父亲动作比我快。他冲过来对我们说“大家都好吧？”他的声音充满了担心和爱。很幸运，我们都很安全，除了最小的妹妹受了伤。我们帮她处理好伤口，然后扶着她站起来。
第二部分的开头是：正当我们不知该如何时，那个陌生人回来了……所以可以接着写：他说他也听到了那个巨大的声音，因此立刻返回。看到我们的情况，他觉得很抱歉，说：“这个地方不准进来的原因就是随时可能有危险情况发生。”最终，我们经过商量决定放弃去温泉。在那个陌生人的帮助下，我们用藤曼做了一个简易的“床”，把妹妹抬回去。这真是一次“新鲜的”经历。
续写时应注意时态和人称的运用。用五个以上的关键词加大了写作的难度，考生应熟悉关键词，以便在适当时应用。写作完成后要按要求将关键词下划线。
【点睛】范文内容完整，要点全面，语言规范，语篇连贯，词数适当，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系。作者在范文中使用了一些高分句型，例如：We all surrounded her to check whether she could walk normally.中whether引导宾语从句；Seeing what we had experienced, he said sorry to us again and again, and told us the dangerous situation could be the reason why the area was a forbidden one.中使用了现在分词作状语，what引导宾语从句，why引导定语从句。
