The City of Newtonville has announced it will sponsor summer events in City Park starting June 18.
Entitled Newtownville Summer Sizzlers, the events are aimed at bringing together families and neighbors during the summer months. "We hope to bring Newtonville citizens out of the house, away from the televisions and video games, and into nature," said Mayor Charles Adams. "Summer used to be a time for families to spend together and for children to play outside with their friends in the park. Now, everyone just stays at home."
The city has scheduled events such as barbecues, picnics, free concerts, and even games for the children. Local businesses will also have food stands and crafts available for sale. "This will be a great social event for our residents, marketing opportunity for our businesses, and welcoming for our new residents," said councilmember Roberta Rogers.
The event will be held every Saturday from 4-9 p.m. until the last weekend in July. Although food will be for sale during the events, residents are welcome to bring their own.
"We used to have summer activities when 1 was young," said 72-year-old Grace Keller, who was born and raised in Newtonville. "You can bet I will be out at least a few times to spend time with my neighbors."
A list of the performances and other scheduled events is available on the city Web site at www.newtonville.org/summersizezler.
What is the main purpose of the event?
选项 A、To welcome new residents
B、To promote area businesses
C、To make children more active
D、To encourage neighborhood unity
答案D
解析 第二段的第一句中说这次活动的目的是实现家庭和邻居的团结，(D)项的encourage neighborhood unity与原文的bringing together families and neighbors是一致的，因此正确答案是(D)项。
