The summer before my junior year in high school, my family and I took a trip to a completely new world. Being from a small town, I had never really been exposed to a large city such as New York City.
As we stood waiting for a taxi outside of the airport, it was immediately apparent to me that New York City was not the same as New Caney, Texas, It seemed like everyone there was in a hurry to get to another place. The loud and constant sound of cars was heard throughout the entire trip. When we found our hotel in Times Square, I noticed that it wasn't just the cars that were in a hurry. Everyone in the streets was walking quickly that indicated a rush to be somewhere. Just standing and watching the many people rushing their own separate ways was an interesting observation.
In addition to the people and transportation, the buildings were also incredible sight. Each street was crammed
with buildings that were built side by side with no room in between, and a number of skyscrapers were present throughout the city as well. The stores were also large compared to the ones of my little town. A small shop in New Caney would be a huge store that took up an entire building in New York. This would make it seen logical that the prices of everything in New York were almost double those back home.
For the first time in my life, I was exposed to a little taste of what the real world is like. The incredible transportation, the huge skyscrapers, and all of the thousands of people made me anxious to grow up and perhaps move to an incredible city such as this one. Either way, my first trip to New York was one of the most incredible experiences of my life, one I well always treasure.
19．According a the author, New Caney is ________ .
A．a very large city B．a rather small town
C．a busy and noisy place D．an undeveloped village
20．The author was impressed by all of the following EXCEPT ________ .
A．the people B．the transportation
C．the buildings D．the custom
21．The underlined phrase "was creamed with" in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by " ________ ".
A．was full of B．was ruined by
C．was lacking in D．was narrowed by
22．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Big cuties can provide young people with more chances.
B．A trip to New York City reduced my love of my hometown.
C．My visit to New York City was a life changing experience.
D．One's impression of a city is usually formed by the first visit.

"Sorry" is considering a symbol of politeness. I have learned it form my parents, both of who have good manners, but I don't know why it is on the tip of my tongue so often. I just can't get rid from it. I often say sorry because I feel really guilt if somebody's hurt just because of me. Besides, I say sorry even if I had done nothing harmful. My sister is like myself. For example, before talk to someone, she would say, "Sorry disturb you." Or to me even "Sorry Kate, are you free?" Sometime, I ask her to stop saying sorry all the time, but she thinks that it is necessary and "sorry" is a word we should make the good use of it.
