The Quad is located right in the heart of Greenwich Village, perhaps the most charming and interesting neighborhood in the city. Here are some attractions we recommend, all within a comfortable walk from the Quad:WashingtonWashington SquareSquare As one of the best-known of New York Citys 1,900 public parks, it is a landmark in the Manhattan neighborhood of Greenwich Village, as well as a meeting place and center for cultural activity.

In nearly every experiment, the group that took photos showed higher levels of enjoyment. The finding might not sound terribly surprising. After all, Facebook members upload about 2 billion photos daily, and Instagram users upload about 80 million photos every day. But some people argue that taking photographs can distract (分散注意力) themselves from enjoying an experience while its happening. The new research shows that it isnt the case and that photography does increase a persons enjoyment, because it increases his or her engagement in the activity. For example, in one experiment, people toured a museum while wearing glasses that tracked their eye movements. The group that took photos spent more time looking at the artifacts than those who didnt.However,photos are sometimes a drag. For instance, if the camera is difficult to carry, it might not bring enjoyment to a person. And in some cases, photography can make situations unpleasant. For example, when people in the study took a virtual safari (游猎) and watched some lions attacking a water buffalo, the people who took photos of the bloody event were reported to have a lower enjoyment of the activity than those who didnt, the researchers said. 28. Why does taking photos increase enjoyment?- 5 -A. People can share their photos on Facebook.B. People have more time to look at the objects to be photographed.C. Some photos may end up as valuable artifacts.D. Photography gets people more involved in the activity.29. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Photography sometimes can be dangerous.B. Photography requires more courage to do.C. Photography is an unpleasant process.D. Photography isnt fun all the time.30. Which of the following is closest to the main idea of the text?A. Photography helps you appreciate people around you.B. Snapping a selfie is a symbol of self-confidence.C. Taking photos doesnt ruin your experience.D. The photo-taking process is a mental choice.31. The writing form of the passage is _A. a research report B. a novel C. a drama D. a description D DOnce upon a time, there was an old businessman, who came to a small town when it was about 12 oclock at night. He found an inn and decided to stay there for the night. After he had gone to his room, the owner said to his wife, “Look at his suitcase, dear. Im sure there are lots of valuable things in it. I want to steal it when he is asleep.” “No, no,” said the woman. “He must look for his suitcase tomorrow morning. Then hell take you before the judge.” They thought and at last the woman had an idea. “We have forgetful grass,” said the woman, “Why not put some into his tea?
