Read P2 and answer.
1 According to the passage, what two things make New York City a diverse and lively place
2 The passage describes Times Square as “big, busy and bright.” Why do thousands of people gather there on New Year’s Eve specifically
New York City is home to about nine million citizens and hundreds of different languages.
Thousands of people gather in Times Square on New Year’s Eve because it is a tradition to count down to midnight and watch the huge glass ball fall. This tradition has been happening since 1907, and people find it fun and exciting.
3 Why does the author say a trip to New York “would not be complete without a walk through Central Park”
The author says this because Central Park offers a peaceful experience that is different from the busy city. With lakes, hills, and green grass, it provides a great place for people to relax after visiting the crowded streets and attractions.
