W: This week’s program Up Your Street takes you to Harrogate, a small town in Yorkshire. Harrogate became a fashionable resort during Victorian times, when people came to take a bath in the mineral waters. Today, few people come to visit the town for its mineral waters. Instead, Harrogate has become a popular town for people to retire to. Its clean air, attractive parks, and the absence of any industry, make this an ideal spot for people looking for a quiet life. Now, to tell us more about Harrogate, I have with me Tom Percival, President of the Chamber of Commerce. Tom, one of the things visitor notices about Harrogate is the large area of open parkland right down into the middle of the town. Can you tell us more about it?
M: Yes, certainly. The area is called the Stray.
W: Why the Stray?
M: It’s called that because in the old days, people let their cattle stray on the area, which was common land.
W: Oh, I see.
M: Then, we’ve changes in farming and in land ownership. The Stray became part of the land owned by Harrogate.
W: And is it protected?
M: Oh, yes, indeed. There’s a special law. No one can build anything on the Stray. It’s protected forever.
W: So it will always be parkland?
M: That’s right. As you can see, some of the Stray is used for sports fields.
W: I believe it looks lovely in the spring.
M: Yes, it does. There’re spring flowers on the old trees, and people visit the town just to see the flowers.
5. Where does this conversation most probably take place?
6. What do we learn about modern Harrogate?
7. What does the man say about the area called the Stray?
8. What attracts people most in the Stray during the spring time?
选项
A、In a resort town.
B、In a lecture room.
C、On a cattle farm.
D、In a botanical garden.
答案
A
解析
①对话开头提到,本周的Up Your Street节目带你来到约克郡的小镇Harrogate。接着主持人说这个小镇在维多利亚时代就是一个时尚度假胜地(a fashionable resort),为了更好地介绍Harrogate,还请来了商会主席。由此推测对话最可能发生在Harrogate,一个度假城镇,答案选A。②对话另一种可能是发生在室内的演播厅。主持人和嘉宾在播放有关Harrogate的影像,但是演播厅一般用studio。B项lecture room通常指“教室,演讲室”,故不对。
