20、h you my personal opinions on city life and life in small towns. I grew up in a small town until I was 18 and then moved to a big city, so I have experienced the good and bad sides of both. I never thought that I would like living in a big city, but I was wrong. After ten years of living in one, I c
21、ant imagine ever living in a small town again. Surely small towns and big cities both have some problems in terms of transport. In a small town, you have to own a car to make life comfortable. You cant get around without one because there isnt any kind of public transport. Big cities generally have
22、heavy traffic and expensive parking, but there you have a choice of taking public transport, which is cheaper than driving. So, if you dont have a car, youd better live in the city. I also love the exciting life in big cities. I can always enjoy a lot of films, concerts, and other wonderful shows. H
23、owever, these things are not common in small towns. The final thing I like about large cities is that you can meet different kinds of people. However, you seldom find such a variety of people in a smaller town. I think that living in an area where everyone was just like me would quickly become dull.
24、 Of course, safety should be considered, and thats one area where small towns are better than big cities. Still, I would rather be a bit more careful and live in a large city than to feel safe but dull.【17 题详解】此题为听力题，解析略。- 7 -【18 题详解】此题为听力题，解析略。【19 题详解】此题为听力题，解析略。【20 题详解】此题为听力题，解析略。第二部分: 英语知识运用 (共两节

34、副词，如果句子中缺少主语、宾语和定语，就用关系代词。这道题目的难点在于分析出 some worry是插入语，应该先去掉不看，结构就清晰了。28.People _being charged parking, so the decision maker had to compromise.A. resigned to B. subscribed to C. submitted to D. objected to【答案】D【解析】- 10 -【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：人们反对对停车收费，所以决策者不得不妥协。文中表示“反对” ，A. resigned to辞职；B. subscribed to
