问题     If you’ve lived for long in New York City, chances are you’ve lived in several different places. On the map of where we live now is also where we used to live, just across the park, a few subway stops【S1】______north or south. That is one of the characteristics of this city—we are【S2】______near to our past. Some people move from Ohio to Oregon. We move from 93rd to 13th, from Alphabet City to Carroll Gardens, all over town.
    And what【S3】______of the old neighborhood? In one【S4】______, nothing. You were only a minor molecule in its chemistry. Go back a week after you’ve【S5】______, and the same dogs are pulling their owners to the park, the same people sitting out. Let enough time pass, and things become a little ghostly. It begins to feel as though the【S6】______has forgotten you, instead of the other way around. When you lived there, nothing changed without your noticing it. Now the changes accumulate【S7】______, and you begin to realize that a part of you has vanished into the past.
    New York is a【S8】______and public city. You can walk past the shops and admire the brownstones. You can hear about the diner that used to be on that corner and what happened that one night. Try as you might to be a tourist in someone else’s past, you end up seeing only the present. That’s how the new neighborhood looks at first—the one you’ve just moved to. You【S9】______into the present, and it ages around you until one day you【S10】______up with a new old neighborhood.
A)aspect I)live
B)becomes J)moved
C)end K)neighborhood
D)farther L)physically
E)further M)sense
F)geographically N)settle
G)grand O)unperceived
H)left
【S8】
选项
答案G
解析 该空和and之后的public构成了并列结构，因此在词性上应和public保持一致为形容词，修饰后面的名词city。由句意可知，纽约是一座宏伟的大城市，因此选择grand“宏伟的”。
