試題分析:本文提供了有關(guān)位于紐約市的埃利斯島(原美國(guó)移民局的駐址,也是美國(guó)移民歷史的象征)的參觀旅游信息,除了一年中的12月25日外,其余時(shí)間均可免費(fèi)參觀游覽。文中還提供了有關(guān)停車(chē)、就餐、緊急情況的電話(huà)號(hào)碼;介紹了唯一的交通方式渡輪,每30分鐘到45分鐘往返一趟,非常方便。
小題1:C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從At Your Fingertips部分的 Emergencies  (212)363-3260可知如果有緊急情況可以撥打這個(gè)電話(huà)號(hào)碼,所以正確選項(xiàng)為C。
小題2:B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從Transportation部分They run about every 30 to 45 minutes beginning at 9:15 a. m. (ferry schedule subject to change)可知時(shí)刻表會(huì)有所變動(dòng),所以B項(xiàng)內(nèi)容錯(cuò)誤,正確選項(xiàng)為B。
小題3:D推理判斷題。從Transportation部分的敘述可知,渡輪是去島上唯一的交通方式,故D項(xiàng)正確。

We considered a list of the best American books. Here are five that may help accurately show the national character. Most from a century or so ago, they still entertain, teach, and inspire:
Moby-Dick by Herman Melville
First published in 1851, the adventure stories of Captain Ahab and his monomaniacal(偏執(zhí)的) pursuit of the white whale draw us into a universe full of fascinating characters and stories.

Published in 1918, the book was an autobiography. Born in one of America’s most famous political families, Adams provides insight into his family, including his experience as private secretary to his father, minister to England during the American Civil war.
Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman
When Whitman published Leaves of Grass in 1855, he wanted to accurately describe the American experience and reflect the great changes in the American literary world that had taken place during his lifetime.
Poems by Emily Dickinson
An enthusiastic poet whose works have had considerable influence on modern poetry, Dickson’s frequent use of dashes, occasional capitalization(大寫(xiě)) of nouns, and unconventional metaphors(隱喻) have contributed to her reputation as one of the most inventive poets of the 19th century American literature. However, most of her poems were not published during her lifetime.
The Song of Hiawatha by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
First published in 1855, this is Longfellow’s most popular and most recognized poem, the heroic life and death of a magic American Indian, sent by the Great Spirit to guide the nations in the ways of peace.
