The Forbidden Apple

New York used to be the city that never sleeps. Theses days, it's the city that never smokes, drinks or does anything naughty (at least, not in public). The Big Apple is quickly turning into the Forbidden Apple.

If you wanted a glass of wine with your picnic in Central Park, could you have one? No chance. Drinking alcohol in public isn't allowed. If you decided to feed the birds with the last crumbs (碎屑) of your sandwich., you could be arrested. It's illegal. If you went to a bar for a drink and a cigarette, that would be OK, wouldn't it? Er…no. You can't smoke in public in New York City.

What's going on? Why is the city that used to be so open-minded becoming like this? The mayor of New York is behind it all. He ahs brought in a whole lot of new laws to stop citizens from doing what they want, when they want.

The press are shocked. Even the New York police have joined the argument. They recently spent $100,000 on a "Don't blame the cop" campaign. One New York police officer said, "We raise money for the city by giving people fines for breaking some very stupid laws. It's all about money."

The result is a lot of fines for minor offences. Yoav Kashida, an Israel tourist, fell asleep on the subway. When he woke up, two police officers fined him because he had fallen asleep on two seats (you mustn't use two seats in the subway). Elle and Serge Schroitman were fined for blocking a driveway with their car. It was their own driveway.

The angry editor of Vanity Fair magazine, Graydon Carter, says, "Under New York City law it is acceptable to keep a gun in your place of work, but not an empty ashtray." He should know. The police came to his office and took away his ashtray (煙灰缸)。

But not all of the New York's inhabitants are complaining. Marcia Dugarry, 72, said, "The city has changed for the better. If more cities had these laws, America would be a better place to live," Nixon Patotkis, 38, a barman, said, "I like the new laws, if people smoked in here, we'd go home smelling of cigarettes."

Recent figures show that New York now has fewer crimes per 100,000 people than 193 other US cities. And it's true-it's safe, cleaner and more healthy than before. But let's be honest-who goes to New York for its clean streets?

第 2 部分：閱讀判斷

16 、A  在第二段里作者給了好幾個例子，如在公共場所不許喝酒、不許用面包屑喂鳥、酒吧里不許抽煙等，說明在紐約有些行為最近被定為違法。

17 、B  文章只說在紐約公共場所不得抽煙，并非在所有的地方都禁止抽煙，也不是在哪里都不可以喝含酒精的飲料，在酒吧還是可以喝的。

18 、C 文中沒有提到在公園里不可以吃蘋果。

19 、C 文中說到某些人對新的法規的反應，但沒有講到商人們的反應如何。

20 、B  文中原句是這樣說的: Elle and Serge Schroitman were fined for blocking a driveway with their car. It was their own driveway. 他們擋住的車道并非是公共車道，而是他們自己的車道。

21 、A The angry editor of Vanity Fair magazine，Graydon Carter，says，"Under New York City law it is acceptable to keep a gun in your place of work ，but not an empty ashtray. "雖然這位編輯沒有用 stupid 這個詞，但從他所說的足可見他認為有些新的法規實在愚蠢:槍支可以帶到工作場所，但卻不可以帶一個空的煙灰缸。

22 、A  從文章的最后一段可見。
