Ⅳ. Read and answer the questions.
Alice: Hi, Jerry. I hear you had fun with Peggy in Merry Park yesterday.
Jerry: Yes. We had a great day there. Why didn’t you come with us?
Alice: I’ve been there many times since it opened five years ago. Also, the ticket is more expensive at the weekend. Well, did you try the Dandelion Seat there? It’s so popular that people have to wait for over an hour to get a ride.
Jerry: You mean those flower-like umbrellas that fly high in the sky?
Alice: Yes. I enjoyed riding on the Dandelion Seat and looking over the city.
Jerry: Eh... I liked taking the mini-train to get around the park more. I don’t think it is fun to ride in the air. I’d feel like I could fall down any time.
Alice: Maybe you would like it more at night. It’s wonderful to see the beautiful lights below your feet.
Jerry: Well... I’m afraid of high places.
Alice: Oh, I see. That’s too bad.

【解析】
1. 第1题：
A项：由文中“I’ve been there many times since it opened five years ago.”可知，Merry Park已开放五年，并非开放时间短，A错误。
B项：根据“the ticket is more expensive at the weekend”可知，周末票价更贵，票价并非一直相同，B错误。
C项：从“Maybe you would like it more at night.”可推断出公园白天和夜间都开放，C正确。
D项：是Dandelion Seat可在空中俯瞰城市，而非公园位于城市上空，D错误。
2. 第2题：根据对话中Alice提到的“Dandelion Seat”以及Jerry描述的“those flower-like umbrellas that fly high in the sky”，对应图D。
3. 第3题：为开放性试题，回答合理即可。
