What do you, the trees, and a bird have in common?     71     All living things must have water to survive, whether they get it from a water fountain, a rain cloud, or a little bottle attached to the side of a bird cage．

      72     Water makes up more than half of your body weight and a person can’t survive for more than a few days without it．Why? Your body has lots of important jobs and it needs water to do many of them．For instance, your blood, which contains a lot of water, carries oxygen to all the cells of your body．Without oxygen, those tiny cells would die and your body would stop working．

       Water is also in lymph, a fluid（流体） that is part of your immune system（免疫系统）, which helps you fight off illness．    73     Water is needed for digestive juices, urine, and poop．And you can bet that water makes up most of sweat．

       In addition to being an important part of the fluids in your body, each cell depends on water to function normally．

       74     Any fluid you drink will contain water, but water and milk are the best choices．Lots of foods contain water, too．    75     You could probably tell that if you’ve ever bitten into a peach or pear and felt the juices dripping down your chin! Vegetables, too, contain a lot of water — think of biting into a fat tomato from the garden．

       A．You need water to digest your food and get rid of waste, too．

       B．You all need water．

       C．Without water, your body would stop working properly．

       D．How much is enough?

       E．Your body doesn’t get water only from drinking water．

       F．When you drink is also important．

       G．Fruit contains quite a bit of water．

Cassandra Feeley finds it hard to manage on her husband’s income. So this year she did something more than a hobby: She planted vegetables in her yard. For her fist garden, Ms Feeley  has put in 15 tomato plants, and five rows of a variety of vegetables. The family’s old farm house has become a chicken bourse ,its residents  arriving next month. Last year, Ms.Rita Gartin kept a small garden. This year she has made it much larger because, she said ,“The cost of everything is going up and I was looking to lose a few pounds too; so it’s a win-win situation all around.”

They are among the growing number of Americans who, driven by higher living costs and a falling economy(经济), have taken up vegetable gardening for the first time. Other have increased the size of their existing gardens. Seed companies and garden shops say no since the 1970s have there been such an increase in interest in growing food at home. Now many gardens across the country hacek been sold out for several months. In Austin, Tex., some of the gardens have a three-year waiting list.

George C.Ball Jr, owner of a company, said sales of vegetable seeds and plants are up by 40%, over last year, double the average growth of last five years. Mr.Ball argues that some of the reasons have been building for the last few years. The big one is striking use in me cost on food like bread and milk, together with the increases in the price of fruit and vegetables. Food prices have increase of higher oil price. People are driving less, taking fewer vacations, so there more time to garden.

64. What does the word “residents” in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?

A. chickens   B. tomatoes    C. gardens    D. people

65. Why is vegetable gardening becoming increasingly popular?

While small may be beautiful, tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems, particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.

The Tall Persons Club Great Britain (TPCGB), which was formed six months ago to campaign for the needs of the tall, has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants. Beds that are too small, showe heads that are too low, and restaurant tables with hardly any leg-room all make life difficult for those of above average height, it says.

But it is not just the extra-tall whose needs are not being met. The average night of the population has been increasing ye the standard size of beds, doorways, and chairs has remained unchanged.]

“The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it, so even a king-size bed at 6′6″(6 feet and 6 inches) is falling short for 25% of men, while the standard 6′3″ bed caters for less than half of the male population.” Said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy, “seven-foot beds would work fine.”

Sililarly, restaurant tables can cause no end of problems. Small tables, which mean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them, are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere.

Some have already taken note, however. At Queens Moat Houses′Caledoman Hotl in Edinburgh, 6′6″beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors, particularly Americans.

60. What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign?

A. To provide better services.      

B. To rebuild hotels and restaurants.

C. To draw public attention to the needs of the tall.

D. To attract more people to become its members.

61. Which of the following might be a bed of proper length according to Phil Heinricy?

A. 7′2″.    B. 7′        C. 6′6″                D. 6′3″

62.What may happen to restaurants with small tables?

A. They may lose some customers.          

B. They may start businesses elsewhere.

C. They have to find easy chairs to match the tables.

D. They have to provide enough space for the long-legged.

63. What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh?

A. Tall people pay more for larger beds.

B. 6′6″beds have taken the place of 6′3″beds.

C. Special rooms are kept for Americans.

D. Guest rooms are standardized.

When milk arrived on the doorstep

When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.

Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note-“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery”-and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.

All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to out house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.

There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.

Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch （门廊）. Every so often my son’s friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.

56. Mr Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer____.

A. to show his magical power.      B. to pay for the delivery  

C. to satisfy his curiosity.       D. to please his mother. 

57. What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy’s house?

A. He wanted to have tea there.  

B. He was a respectable person.

C. He was treated as a family member.

D. He was fully trusted by the family.

58. Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?

A. Nobody wants to be a milkman now.  

B. It has been driven out of the market.

C. Its service is getting poor.            

D. It is forbidden by law.

59. Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?

A. He missed the good old days.          

B. He wanted to tell interesting stories.

C. He missed it for his milk bottles.        

D. He planted flowers in it.
