21、 People living in New York City are fearful after facing the worst of COVID-19 health crisis（危机）. This fear is bringing about a sudden increase in home sales and rentals around the small towns and wooded hills to the city’s north.
Anil and Joyce Lilly won’t be staying in their Bronx apartment much longer. They just bought a house north of New York in the Hudson Valley. It takes about an hour to reach from the city.
“We were more elbow rooms. We were locked into the apartment for three months, three full months,” Joyce Lilly explained their move to Washingtonville, New York. “I feel like I’m getting out of prison and I want to run as far away as possible. ”
House sellers describe an active market recently, with many house hunters able to work from home. Steven Domber said plenty of the home buyers are coming from Manhattan, in the heart of the city. Many of them are experiencing “cabin fever （幽居病）, which is wanting to get out of an apartment and having some land if there’s a lock down again,” he said. House agents say sales and rental activities are far above normal. Domber said his June sales were up about 30 percent compared to the same month last year. Home builder Chuck said he took eight orders in one month, compared to his usual one and a half each month.
But New York City is in no danger of losing a lot of people any time soon. The movement looks more like a trickle （细流） in a city of 8.3 million. With new homes in the area running from under $200, 000 to more than $l million, it is an escape many people cannot afford. But the increase in sales and long-term rentals suggests many New Yorkers see the city as less livable.
【1】Why did Anil and Joyce Lilly buy a house in the Hudson Valley?
A.To get rid of COVID-19.
B.To work from home.
C.To change their living environment.
D.To get away from Washingtonville.
【2】How is the sales and rental market recently according to the text?
A.Strange. B.Busy. C.Normal. D.Complex.
【3】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.The effect of the movement is limited,
B.Everything will recover in no time.
C.It’s dangerous to remain in the city.
D.It’s easy to afford a new home.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Fear Affecting People’s Health
B.House Agents Happy with Orders
C.New Yorkers Crazy about Selling Land
D.New Yorkers Leaving City for More Living Space

24、 Americans plan parties for many reasons. As in other cultures, many Americans attend parties for weddings and religious or national holidays. But some parties are especially American. For example, a group of neighbors may gather on their street to eat food, play music and visit with one another. This is called a block party. A woman might invite a group of women to a party called a baby shower for a friend who is about to give birth. Guests bring presents for the new baby.
Americans also attend tailgate parties. A tailgate is the back end of a truck or other vehicle that opens down. The tailgate parties are a big part of sports culture in the United States. Friends bring food and drink to a sports event. They eat together in the parking area of the sports stadium.
Birthday parties are also very popular. Many parents organize a party for their child around a theme. Birthday parties usually include gifts and a birthday cake with candles. In many parts of the United States, cupcakes have become a popular replacement for cakes.
Birthday parties can be low cost or very costly. Some parents take their children’s birthday parties very seriously, even when the child is too young to fully understand the celebration.
One group of parents started a website called Birthdays Without Pressure. They decided that some parents were under too much social pressure to plan costly parties for their children. The group sees this movement as an example of America’s culture of “too much stuff”. The group’s website gives suggestions on how to keep birthday celebrations simple, meaningful and fun without spending a lot of money.
