做完形填空需先通读全文，理解文章讲述的是作者一家去希腊旅行的经历，再结合每个空的上下文语境、固定搭配、语法知识逐一分析选项，排除不符合语境的选项，选出正确答案。
【解析】
1. 考查动词辨析：根据前文“Dad wanted to take us for a trip”，可知是“我们决定去希腊”，decide to do sth为固定搭配，故选B。

二、任务型阅读。
Last summer, Cathy went to New York City with her parents for their summer vacation. (A) They stayed there for two weeks.
New York City has more than seven and a half million people. It is the largest city in the United States.
First they visited the Statue of Liberty(自由女神像). The Statue of Liberty is one of New York's most well-known historic sites(古迹). Millions of people visit New York City every year.
On the second day they went to the Empire State Building(帝国大厦). It is the tallest building in New York City now. (B) , they saw most parts of New York.
On the third day, they visited the Metropolitan(大都市的) Museum of Art. In this museum, they saw a lot of famous paintings. During the rest time of the week, they went to the Bronx Zoo. (C) There they were glad to see a lot of their favourite animals, such as tigers, lions, monkeys and elephants.
The next week, the family visited the Long Island. On the island, they spent most of their time swimming, sunbathing and playing on the beach. They all had a good time.
1. 对(A)处画线部分进行提问。

2. 选择一个合适的句子填在(B)处的横线上。
A. From the top of the building
B. In the Metropolitan Museum of Art
C. Standing in the New York City's street
3. 翻译(C)处画线句子。

1. How long did they stay there?
2. A
3. 在那里他们很高兴地看到了很多他们最喜爱的动物，例如老虎、狮子、猴子和大象。

【分析】
本题为初中英语任务型阅读题，包含三个小题，解题思路如下：
1. 第1题：划线部分“for two weeks”表示时间段，对时间段提问需用特殊疑问词how long；原句为一般过去时，变疑问句时借助助动词did，动词stayed还原为原形stay，据此构造问句。
2. 第2题：需结合上下文语境选句，前文提到参观帝国大厦，后文说能看到纽约大部分区域，只有“从大楼顶部”符合逻辑，据此选正确选项。
3. 第3题：英译汉时需准确对应固定搭配和词汇，保证语句通顺、意思准确。
【解析】
1. 对时间段提问用how long引导特殊疑问句，原句是一般过去时，助动词did提前，动词stay用原形，故问句为How long did they stay there？
2. 结合语境，帝国大厦是高楼，在其顶部可俯瞰纽约大部分区域，A选项符合；B选项是大都会博物馆、C选项是街道，均不符合，故选A。
3. 翻译时，“There”译为“在那里”，“were glad to see”译为“很高兴看到”，“a lot of their favourite animals”译为“很多他们最喜爱的动物”，“such as”译为“例如”，故整句译为：在那里他们很高兴地看到了很多他们最喜爱的动物，例如老虎、狮子、猴子和大象。
【答案】
1. How long did they stay there?
2. A
3. 在那里他们很高兴地看到了很多他们最喜爱的动物，例如老虎、狮子、猴子和大象。
