题目内容

     I have a neighbor we call “Happy”. I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh (苛刻) word to anyone or about anyone.
    Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Ben’s beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her back yard.
     Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighborhood for an “all-day food feast”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn’t know what was about to take place. 
     By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By five o’clock, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty（收成）of the day. What a delightful gift!
    Well, the point wasn’t so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another’s company(陪伴). All this would not have happened if there had not been Happy and Ben’s garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decided to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!
68. We can infer that Happy and her husband Ben_______.
  A. don’t like spending time with others         B. sometimes quarrel with each other
  C. live on the food they grow in their garden    D. are a generous and warm-hearted couple
69. According to paragraph 2, people wish they also had a garden so that_______.
  A. they didn’t have to spend so much money on food
  B. they could grow vegetables and sell at the market
  C. they could invite their neighbors and hold parties in it
  D. they could spend happy times together with their family in it
70. For what purpose did Happy and Ben invite the neighbors to their garden?
  A. To ask them to attend a birthday party
  B. To help them get to know each other.
  C. To let them enjoy what they grew in the garden.
  D. To ask them to share some interesting stories.

Some time ago, a fellow teacher asked me to be the referee(仲裁人)  on the grading of an exam question. He was about to give a student a    1    for his answer to a physics question, while the student said he should receive a perfect    2   . I read the exam question: “Show how it is possible to    3   the height of a tall building with the    4    of a barometer(气压表) .”

The student had answered: “Take the barometer to the top of the building, fasten a    5  

rope to it,   6    the barometer to the street, and then bring it up,   7    the length of the rope. That’s the    8   .”

I pointed out that the student really have a strong case for full credit(学分) ,since he had answered the question   9    and correctly, but the answer did not prove competence(能力)  in physics. I   10    that the student have another try. I gave the student six minutes, with the   11    that his answer should show some    12   of physics. His answer reads:

“Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean    13    the edge of the roof. Drop the barometer,   14    its fall with a stop watch. Then using the formula s=1/2at2,calculate the height of the building.”

I gave the student    15    full credit.

Before I left, the student said he had   16    answers. “But,” said the student,   17    the best way is to knock at the superintendent’s(管理者)  door. When he    18    ,you say: “Mr. Superintendent, here I have a(n)    19    barometer. If you will tell me the height of the building, I will    20   you this barometer.”
