Question

【題目】 New York is an overwhelming city to visit with children. What follows is carefully collected advice from New Yorkers on how to cover the city right.

Tenement Museum

The Tenement Museum on the Lower East Side offers a fantastic glimpse into urban family life. Guided tours reveal the daily routines of generations of Irish, Jewish and Italian immigrants who made their mark then quickly moved up and out. Pick up a copy of “All-of-a-Kind Family”or a vintage toy in the museum shop, one of the city’s best.

MoMA Museum

MoMA Museum does an excellent job making modern and contemporary art accessible to children as young as 4. On weekend mornings, guided tours are divided into age-appropriate groups in which children can observe a number of works and draw; later they gain free admittance to the entire museum. The cafeteria is both grown-up and child-friendly, and there’s an art laboratory with hands-on activities and even an audio guide for young people.

Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum

The most significant in the museum is the Space Shuttle Pavilion, which is scheduled to reopen in July, showcasing the Enterprise, NASA’s first space shuttle, which arrived last year. The U.S.S. Intrepid, a World War II-era aircraft carrier, is worthwhile in itself. While the complex suffered damage during Hurricane Sandy, most of its facilities are once again shipshape. Families may want to consider Operation Slumber, which allows for overnight visits with special activities for children 6 and older.

Children’s Museum of the Arts

All the artwork here is made by children, and visitors can make their own （bonus: you don’t have to clean up）. An area for younger children includes sand, Play-Doh and guided music activities. Children go berserk for the Ball Pond, a closed-in area of oversize balls. Is it experiential art? An installation? Children need not bother with such imponderables.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】C

【3】A

【解析】

這是一篇應(yīng)用文。文章介紹了紐約市四個(gè)孩子們可以去參觀的博物館。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)MoMA Museum中On weekend mornings, guided tours are divided into age-appropriate groups in which children can observe a number of works and draw; later they gain free admittance to the entire museum.可知，在周末上午，導(dǎo)賞團(tuán)會(huì)按年齡分組，讓兒童觀賞及繪畫作品；隨后，他們獲得了整個(gè)博物館的免費(fèi)入場(chǎng)券。因此在MoMA Museum提供免費(fèi)入場(chǎng)。故選B項(xiàng)。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Children’s Museum of the Arts中All the artwork here is made by children, and visitors can make their own （bonus: you don’t have to clean up）.可知，這里所有的藝術(shù)品都是孩子們做的，游客們可以自己動(dòng)手(額外的好處是：你不必收拾)。因此Children’s Museum of the Arts不同于其他三個(gè)博物館在于它的藝術(shù)作品都是由兒童創(chuàng)作的。故選C項(xiàng)。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)Tenement Museum中Pick up a copy of “All-of-a-Kind Family”or a vintage toy in the museum shop, one of the city’s best.你可以在博物館的商店里買到一本《全家福》，或是一件古董玩具，這是紐約最好的玩具之一。MoMA Museum中On weekend mornings, guided tours are divided into age-appropriate groups in which children can observe a number of works and draw; later they gain free admittance to the entire museum.在周末上午，導(dǎo)賞團(tuán)會(huì)按年齡分組，讓兒童觀賞及繪畫作品；隨后，他們獲得了整個(gè)博物館的免費(fèi)入場(chǎng)券。Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum中Families may want to consider Operation Slumber, which allows for overnight visits with special activities for children 6 and older.家庭可以考慮“睡眠操作”，它允許6歲以上的兒童在夜間進(jìn)行特殊活動(dòng)。Children’s Museum of the Arts中All the artwork here is made by children, and visitors can make their own （bonus: you don’t have to clean up）. 這里所有的藝術(shù)品都是孩子們做的，游客們可以自己動(dòng)手(額外的好處是：你不必收拾)�？芍�，這四個(gè)博物館對(duì)于孩子們都是很照顧的，因此可以說他們都是對(duì)兒童友好的。故選A項(xiàng)。
