2.Like most couples,my husband and I dreamed of becoming homeowners.Sure,apartment living comes with its own set of advantages-less housework,shared comfort,less to clean up and care for,and usually cheaper rent.As a result,we decided to downgrade from our neat five-bedroom,2,700-square-foot house on the water to a three-bedroom,1,369-square-foot apartment,with two kids.
Once we arrived in our new apartment,we were surprised to find that things flowed relatively smoothly.There was so much less to keep up with-fewer floors to mop,fewer windows to clean,fewer walls to wipe,etc.Now I think of our home as our little playhouse,since it's much smaller and everything is closer together.That also makes it so much easier for me to keep up with as a mom.I collect laundry all on one floor comparing with having to climb stairs to the house's second floor!
In our new home,we use lots of shoe organizers inside of every closet door for more than just shoes-baby items,office items,and medicines.We also have a functional room that serves as an office and gym.Since both my husband and I work from home,we require at least one room to share as an office with fitness equipment fitted into a comer.
While many people choose to downsize for financial reasons,that actually wasn't a factor in our decision.We wanted to be in a lively area with like-minded young families.That was our first priority.Though we may still buy another house in this area at some point down the line,for now,we're thrilled with the concept of renting an apartment.Let me put it this way:We're not really the "handy" types,so being able to call maintenance(維修)for any repairs is worth every rent coin!
(1)What can we learn from Paragraph 1?
A.Our old house was upgraded.
B.Living in a house has advantages.
C.Our new apartment was downsized.
D.Smaller size means more housework.
(2)How do the couple feel about the new apartment?
A.Confused.
B.Amazed.
C.Tired.
D.Challenged.
(3)Why do the couple make changes to their new home?
A.To build up their body.
B.To create a home office.
C.To enlarge all the rooms.
D.To make full use of space.
(4)What is the couple's first concern when moving?
A.Transportation.
B.Neighbourhood.
C.Repair work.
D.Money.組卷:1引用:2難度:0.5 -
3.Most city parks are places where you can escape from big,ugly structures of metal and stone.The Manhattan High Line is different.Raised 25 feet above the ground,this large metal structure once supported a rail line.The line opened in 1934 to bring trains directly into factories.It was hardly used after the 1960s,and much of it was torn down.However,one part remained in a region of Manhattan called Chelsea.Chelsea was becoming high-class as restaurants,art galleries and apartments were built,but the ugly railway structure remained as a dead weight.Everyone knew that at some time,it would have to be removed.
But the High Line was not destroyed.In fact,now the old rail line serves as one of the most peaceful places in the cjye.aiy.It holds an elevated park,with beautiful gardens and great views of the city.The idea to turn the rail line into a park came from Joshua David and Robert Hammond.In 1999,they attended a meeting to decide how to deal with the High Line.David and Hammond were the only people at the meeting interested in saving the historical structure.Later on,when they asked railway officials to take them up to look at the High Line,they saw a mile and a hall of wild flower growing in the middle of the city,and they realized that the High Line had potential to become a park.There was growing interest in improving city centers,and so the project quickly developed and money for construction was easily collected.
The first part of the High Line opened in 2009 and immediately became popular with tourists and locals alike.Each part of the park has a different atmosphere.Some areas are like balconies(陽臺(tái))with wonderful city views.Where the rail line goes between buildings,trees are thickly planted.Other sections have wide lawns(草坪) and walkways with wild flowers.Only the final section remains the way it has been for the last fifty years.
(1)What is the text mainly about?
A.Closing a train line.
B.An unlikely place for a park.
C.Protection of cultural relics.
D.Improving city transport.
(2)What does the underlined part "a dead weight" in paragraph 1 mean?
A.something with historical interest
B.something with potential to be better
C.something useless which slows progress
D.something which is a danger to people
(3)Why did David and Hammond originally want to save the High Line?
A.They wanted to reopen the train line.
B.They thought it had historical value.
C.They were interested in improving the city.
D.They thought it would become a good park.
(4)What can we learn about the High Line from the text?
A.Only part of the line remains.
B.The railway companies still use the line.
C.It began to become popular in the 1960.
D.It was designed by David and Hammond.組卷:1引用:3難度:0.5
