[2019·黑龙江六校一模]In more ways than one, Toronto is given far less credit than it really deserves. But Toronto has its own reasons to pull you in. The city is ever changing and some new attractions pop up every year.
CN Tower
The CN Tower is a symbol of Toronto. It's a concrete observation and communications tower that goes over 500 meters high. The adventure of walking on an outdoor platform that sticks out from the very top part of the tower for those healthy adults is attractive. It has pulled in crowds from all over the world — the EdgeWalk.
Toronto Zoo
Going out with kids? Then treat them to a fun and educational time at the Toronto Zoo. It is home to over 5,000 animals and constantly gets new arrivals. Amongst the newest comers are two Chinese pandas. For adventurous families, a visit there is not all about seeing animals. It's a unique experience where you and your kids get to fly over wolves and bears.
Ripley's Aquarium (水族馆) of Canada
Located right by the base of the CN Tower and packed with unforgettable fun sights, Ripley's Aquarium of Canada will thrill adults and young ones alike. It hosts thousands of animals that you can get to see close, including rare sea animals, such as sharks, jellyfish, and rays.
Kensington Market
The diversity of the food there will delight any taste. This is where you will find popular cuisines from different parts of the world. You can enjoy Venezuelan, Chinese, Italian dishes, and more. The experienced cooks will give you something you have never eaten before, by combining dishes from different traditions.

[2019·安徽六校联考]The American dream is the faith held by many people in the United States of America that through hard work, courage, creativity and determination, they can achieve a better life for themselves. More specifically, they agree on how to get ahead in America: get a college education, find a reliable job, and buy their own house. But do Americans still believe in that path, and if they do, is it attainable?
The most recent National Journal poll asked participants about the American dream, what it took to achieve their goal, and whether or not they felt the control over their ability to be successful. Obviously, the results show that today, the idea of the American dream and what it takes to achieve it looks quite different from it did in the late 20th century. Generally speaking, people feel that their actions and hard work — not outside force — deciding their lives. But the participants have definitely mixed feelings about what actions make for a better life in the current economy.
In the last seven years, Americans have grown more pessimistic (悲观的) about the power of education to lead to success. Even though they see going to college as a fairly achievable goal, a majority — 52 percent —think that young people do not need a 4-year college education in order to be successful.
Miguel Maeda, 42, who has a master's degree and works in public health, was the first in his family to go to college, which has allowed him to achieve a sense of financial stability (稳定) his parents and grandparents never did. While some, like Maeda, emphasized the value of degree rather than the education itself, others still see college as a way to gain new viewpoints and life experiences. To Fendley, a sense of drive and purpose, as well as an effective high-school education, and basic life skills, like balancing a checkbook (支票簿), are the necessary elements for a successful life in America.
体裁：议论文 题材：社会文化 主题：美国梦
【语篇解读】 过去大多数美国人认为接受大学教育、找到一份可靠的工作并买属于自己的房子就是实现了自己的美国梦，但随着时间的推移，美国人眼中的美国梦也变得不同了。
5．What did one have to have to succeed, which used to be commonly acknowledged in America?
A．A sense of drive and purpose. B．An advanced academic degree. C．A firm belief in his or her dream.
