We are aware that the storms that hit Lyndon last summer caused a great amount of damage, and the citys budget should first be used to repair the high school, city hall, and airport. Dont you realize, however, what a loss the park will be?Center Park is the best place in the city for sports, picnics, concerts, walking, and enjoying nature. It plays a vital role in the education of our children. Each year science teachers bring their classes to the park on field trips to study plants and animals. Small children use the playground equipment every day. There are no other parks nearby for these kids to enjoy themselves. Every day I see the park on my way to school. It is absolutely necessary to support Center Park.The Lyndon High School Ice Skating Club would like to offer the city some help. We are suggesting a Skatathon. Our members would ask family, friends, and businesses for help, and then skate all day. For every mile skated, we would raise money to be used to maintain the fields and rink. Also, some of our members are willing to help the park staff do simple repairs at the rink.While it appears that the city can no longer afford Center Park, other facts tell us we have to maintain this park as a place for the entire Lyndon community. It is a green, refreshing place to go in the middle of the city. We hope our idea is the first of many good ideas to keep Center Park green and clean.Sincerely yours,Cara Johnson24.What happened to Center Park last summer?A.Lack of money made it almost closed.B.A lot of equipment there was missing.C.It was abandoned by local people.

At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, Ive found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, its the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors-silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.Its fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks. Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just cant provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied（陪伴）my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didnt want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.27.According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?A.Because they are convenient and inexpensive.B.Because they are traditional and safe.C.Because they are colorful and available.D.Because they are fast and environment friendly.28.The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended_.A.to ride it for funB.to use it for transportC.to experience local cultureD.to improve his riding skills29.How did the author feel about his street crossing?A.It was boring.B.It was wonderful.C.It was lively.D.It was difficult.30.Which of the following best describes the authors biking experience?A.The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.B.The author took great pleasure in biking.C.The author was praised by the other bikers.D.The author was annoyed by the air while riding.第三部分 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）At about 10 pm on September 7, 2020, Tommy Barber and his friend Susan Laney were stepping out of the elevator of her apartment building when they smelled smoke. “My dogs!” Susan yelled as she 31down the hall to her apartment.
