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
【S6】
选项
答案K
解析 该空前面有定冠词the，故应填入名词。由上文可知，一个人在搬走之后重回故地，他会发现他的离开对这个地方没有产生影响，人们生活照旧。空格后的动词为forgotten“忘记”，因此空格处应填入表示人的名词，故选择neighborhood“街坊”，意为“看起来好像周围的邻居已经把这个人忘记了一样”。
