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【C1】______north or south. That is one of the characteristics of this city—we are【C2】______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【C3】______of the old neighborhood? In one【C4】______, nothing. You were only a minor molecule in its chemistry. Go back a week after you’ve【C5】______, 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【C6】______has forgotten you, instead of the other way around. When you lived there, nothing changed without your noticing it. Now the changes accumulate【C7】______, and you begin to realize that a part of you has vanished into the past.
    New York is a【C8】______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【C9】______into the present, and it ages around you until one day you【C10】______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
【C1】
选项
答案D
解析 根据句意可知，在纽约生活时间久了之后，人们很可能在不同的地区都居住过。从地图上看，我们目前居住的地方也是曾经居住过的地方，两者之间离得很近，可能只隔一个公园，或者只有几站路远，因此选择farther“更远的”，表示距离上的远。further意为“更远的，更深一层的”，表示程度上的加剧，故排除。
