19．Yes，it's still 2015，but as USA Today says，"it's never too early to plan your 2016travels"．With so many hot destinations （目的地） around the globe，"where should I go？"can be difficult to answer．According to Lonely Planet，though，Brazil is a fine choice-on April 29，the travel guide named that country the top one to visit in 2016．
"As if endless strands of coast and mountains splashed with rainforest didn't already add up to an unfair share of heaven （天堂），Brazil held one of the greatest sporting events in the world，the 2014FIFA World Cup，and the 2016Summer Olympics，another greatest one，will be followed，"explained Lonely Planet．
Brazil is the largest and most populous country in South America．It boasts （自豪拥有） the Amazon，the world's largest jungle （丛林），which is home to a variety of plants and animals．But the great landscape （景色） is not the only thing Brazilians take pride in．

13．It was Thanksgiving morning．I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang．I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top step．
"Any old papers，lady？"asked one of them．
I was busy．I wanted to say"no"until I looked down at their feet．They were wearing thin little sandals（凉鞋），wet with heavy snow．
"Come in and I'll make you a cup of hot cocoa．"
They walked over and sat down at the table．Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor．I served them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside．Then I went back to the kitchen and started cooking．
The silence in the front room struck me．I looked in．The girl held the empty cup in her hands，looking at it．The boy asked in a flat voice，"Lady，are you rich？"
"Am I rich？Pity，no！
I looked at my wornout slipcovers（椅套）．The girl put her cup back in its saucer（茶碟）carefully and said，"Your cups match your saucers．"They left after that，holding their papers against the wind．They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful．
Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence．But they matched．
I tasted the potatoes and stirred（搅动）the meat soup．Potatoes and brown meat soup，a roof over our heads，my man with a regular job，these matched，too．
I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room．The muddy marks of little sandals were still wet upon my floor．Let them be for a while，I thought，just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am．
56．Which of the following would be the best title for the text？B

20．Today just as technology changed the face of industry，farms have undergone an"agricultural revolution"．On the farm of today，machines provide almost all the power．
One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer．A few forward-looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their farms more efficiently．The computers help them keep more accurate records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant，how much livestock to buy，when to sell their products，and how much profit they can expect．Many computer companies have been developing special computer programs just for farmers．Programs are being written for hog producers，grain farmers，potato farmers，and dairy farmers．In the future，farmers will be able to purchase computer programs made to their needs．Because of the growing importance of computers on the farm，students at agricultural colleges are required to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural courses．There can be no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even more in the future．While the old-time farm depended on horse power，and modern farms depend on machine power，farms of the future will depend on computer power．
Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robot，a real"mechanized hired hand"that will be able to move and，in some ways，think like a human being．Agricultural engineers believe that computer-aided robots will make startling changes in farming before the end of the century．Unlike farmers of the present，farmers of the future will find that many day-to-day tasks will be done for them．Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear sheep，drive tractors，and harvest fruit．Even complex jobs will be done by robots．For example，in order to milk their cows，farmers must first drive them into the barn，then connect them to the milking machines，watch the machines，and disconnect them when they are finished．In the future，this will all be done by robots．In addition，when the milking is completed，the robots will automatically check to make sure that the milk is pure．The complete mobilization of the farm is far in the future，but engineers expect that some robots will be used before long．

65．What is the best title for the whole passage？B

17．Nuclear power's danger to health，safety，and even life itself can be summed up in one word：radiation．
Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it，partly because it cannot be detected by human senses．It can't be seen or heard，or touched or tasted，even though it may be all around us．There are other things like that．For example，radio waves are all around us but we can't detect them，sense them，without a radio receiver．Similarly，we can't sense radioactivity without a radiation detector．But unlike common radio waves，nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things．
At very high levels，radiation can kill an animal or human being immediately by killing masses of cells in vital organs．But even the lowest levels can do serious damage．There is no levels of radiation that is completely safe．If the radiation does not hit anything important，the damage may not be serious．This is the case when only a few cells are hit，and if they are killed immediately．Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones．But if the few cells are only damaged，and if they reproduce themselves，you may be in trouble．They can grow into cancer．Sometimes this does not show up for many years．
This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation．Serious damage can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred．A person can be irradiated（辐射）and feel fine，then die for cancer five，ten，or twenty years later as a result．Or a child can be born weak as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents．
Radiation can hurt us．We must know the truth．
61．What is the main idea of the passage？C
A．How to detect nuclear radiation．
B．How radiation kill a man．
C．The mystery about nuclear radiation．
D．Serious damage caused by nuclear radiation．
62．Which of the following statements is true？A
A．Nuclear radiation can cause cancer to human beings．
B．Nuclear radiation can be safe to human beings if its level is low．
C．Nuclear radiation can be detected by human senses．
D．Nuclear radiation is just like common radio waves．
63．How can nuclear radiation kill an animal？C
A．By damaging its heart．B．By killing a few cells．
C．By killing many cells in important organs．D．By hitting any place in its body．
64．What is not the reason why nuclear radiation has a certain mystery？C
A．The hurt cells can stay in the body many years and then grow into cancer．
B．It can do harm to a person while the victim isn't aware the damage has occurred．
C．Nuclear radiation can kill a person very easily．
D．Radiation can seldom kill a person immediately．
65．If a human being is hit by nuclear radiation，he mayD．
A．die of cancer after many years B．die immediately
C．have a child who may be born weak D．all of the above．

18．I mustapologize（道歉） to you for not meeting you at the airport on time．
