Greenspace facilities (設(shè)施) are contributing to an important degree to the quality of the city environment. Fortunately it is no longer necessary that every lecture or every book about this subject has to start with the proof of this idea. At present it is generally accepted, although more as a self-proved statement than on the base of a closely reasoned scientific proof. Recognizing the importance of greenspaces in the city environment is a first step on the right way, this does not mean, however, that enough details are known about the functions of greenspace in towns and about the way in which people are using these spaces. As to this subject I shall within the scope (范圍) of this lecture, enter into one aspect only, namely the recreative function of greenspace facilities. 

The theoretical separation of living, working, traffic and recreation which for many years has been used in town and country planning, has in my opinion resulted in more attention for forms of recreation far from home, while there was relatively little attention for improvement of recreative possibilities in the direct neighborhood of the home. We have come to the conclusion that this is not right, because an important part of the time which we do not pass in sleeping or working, is used for activities at and around home. So it is obvious that recreation in the open air has to begin at the street door of the house. The city environment has to offer as many recreation activities as possible, and the design of these has to be such that more required activities can also have recreative aspect. 

The very best standard of living is nothing if it is not possible to take a pleasant walk in the district, if the children cannot be allowed to play in the streets because the risks of traffic are too great, if during shopping you can nowhere find a spot for enjoying for a moment the nice weather, in short, if you only feel yourself at home after the street door of your house is closed after you. 

1.. The importance of greenspaces in the city environment _____. 

A. is still unknown                        B. is paid little attention to 

C. is accepted on the base of scientific proof    D. has been recognized

2. For many years town and country planning has _____. 

A. brought living areas and places of entertainment close together 

 

B. separated recreation facilities far from home 

C. improved recreative possibilities in the neighborhood 

D. enabled people to reach the best standard of living 

3.. The word “recreation” in the passage probably means,_____.

A. activities done for pleasure or enjoyment    B. doing something again in a creative way 

C. doing something important after work       D. required activities done after work 

4.According to the author, greenspaces should be designed _____. 

A. to reduce the number of recreative activities 

B. to attract more and more people 

C. for people to use more conveniently        

D. for people to do recreative activities at the street door of the house

5. The main idea of this passage is that _____. 

A. attention must be paid to the improvement of recreation 

B. greenspace facilities should be used better to improve the quality of life 

C. the city environment is providing more recreative activities 

D. we should try our best to raise our living standard

                                                                     A Gift of God
     One fine summer morning-it was the beginning of harvest, I remember-Mr. Earnshaw came
down stairs, dressed for a journey; after he had told Joseph what was to be done during the day,
he turned to Hindley and Cathy, and me-for I sat eating my porridge with them-and speaking to
his son, he said:
    "Now, I'm going to Liverpool today. What shall I bring you? You may choose what you like;
only small things, for I shall walk there and back; sixty miles each way, that is a long time!"
     Hindley named a fiddle (a kind of violin), and then he asked Miss Cathy. She was hardly six
years old, but she could ride any horse in the stable. She chose a whip(鞭子).He did not forget
me; for he had a kind heart, though he was rather serious sometimes. He promised to bring me
a pocketful of apples and pears. Then he kissed his children good-bye and set off.
     The three days of his absence seemed a long while to us all. Mrs. Earnshaw expected him by
supper-time on the third evening. She put off the meal hour after hour. There were no signs of his
coming, however. About eleven o'clock the door opened and in stepped the master. He threw
himself into a chair, laughing and groaning, and told them all to stand off, for he was nearly killed.
He would never again have another such walk for whatever reasons.
     Opening his great coat, which he held bundled up in his arms, he said: "See here, wife. I was
never so beaten with anything in my life. But you must take it as a gift of God though it's as dark
almost as if it came from the devil."
     We crowded round him. And over Miss Cathy's head, I had a look at a dirty, ragged, black-haired
child-big enough both to walk and talk-yet, when it was set on its feet, it only stared round, and
repeated over and over again some strange words that nobody could understand. I was frightened,
and Mrs. Earnshaw was ready to throw it out of doors. She did get angry, asking why he should have
brought that gipsy child into the house when they had their own kids to feed and look after? What he
meant to do with it?
   The master tried to explain the matter though he was really half dead with tiredness. All that I could
make out, among her scolding, was a story of his seeing it starving, and homeless, and almost dumb
(啞的) in the streets of Liverpool where he picked it up and inquired for its owner. But not a person
knew to whom it belonged. He said that as both his money and time was limited, he thought it better
to take it home with him at once than run into vain expenses there. Anyway he was determined he
would not leave it as he found it.
   Well, finally Mrs. Earnshaw calmed down, and Mr. Earnshaw told me to wash it, give it clean things,
and let it sleep with the children.
    Hindley and Cathy then began searching their father's pockets for the presents he had promised
them. But when Hindley drew out what had been a fiddle, crushed (壓壞) to pieces in the great coat,
he cried loudly. And Cathy, when she learned her father had lost her whip in attending on the stranger,
showed her feeling by spitting at the gipsy child, earning herself a sound blow from Mr. Earnshaw to
 teach her cleaner manners.
                                                               (Adapted from Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte) 

1. When did Mr. Earnshaw return home from Liverpool?
A. By supper time.                    
B. An hour after the meal time.    
C. When it was getting dark.            
D. Not until it was nearly midnight.
2. Mr. Earnshaw brought the gipsy child back home for the following reasons except that ______  .
A. he couldn't find the parents of the starving child.
B. he found that the starving child was a dumb boy.
C. he couldn't afford to stay longer to look for the child's parents.
D. he couldn't leave the starving child without anyone caring for it.
3. It can be inferred from the passage that            .
A. The title "A Gift of God" refers to something he bought in Liverpool.
B. Cathy was very disappointed and she turned her anger at her father.  
C. Mrs. Earnshaw agreed to keep the gipsy child in spite of everything.                  
D. Hindley was good-humoured even if he didn't get his present.
