The sixth book in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series by Jeff Kinney will be released on November 15th, just in time for the Christmas shopping season. The book is titled Cabin Fever and will continue the funny story of middle school kid Greg Heffley.
The story begins with Greg and his friend Rowley being accused of damaging school property. It wasn't really their fault, but the authorities don't see it that way. Just when they are about to get caught, the city gets hit by a giant blizzard (暴风雪). This is a good thing, right? Well, not so fast! Greg is now stuck at home with his family and all this gives him a bad case of cabin fever.
Kinney says that the book is not only about the claustrophobia (幽闭恐怖症) of being stuck at home for days without being able to leave, but also about getting stuck with an identity. Sometimes we get stuck a certain way when we are young and it's hard to change people's feelings of us. That's some pretty deep stuff (东西), but we expect the book to mostly be full of silly and funny stuff that will make us laugh.
The first printing of Cabin Fever will print 6 million copies of the book. Many kids who don't like to read like the Wimpy Kid books because of the combination of cartoons, story, and comedy. Cabin Fever, like the other five, will have 224 pages of cartoons and funny events in the life of Greg Heffley as he sits out his holidays snowbound at home.
They are generally recommended for kids 8 to 11 years of age, but older kids(even adults) may find them funny as they remember what it was like to be in middle school.
60.The underlined phrase "not so fast" in Paragraph 2 probably means that _____.
A.Greg got away with breaking the rules so fast.
B.Greg hadn't thought the weather changed suddenly.
C.Things developed in a quite different way.
D.Good luck the blizzard brought came slowly.
61.What can we know about Cabin Fever?
A.It continues the story of a middle school student Rowley.
B.It will appear on the market on Christmas Day.
C.It is about an exciting public winter holidays.
D.It contains a lot of pictures and funny stuff.
62.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Jeff Kinney has written six books in all.
B.Jeff Kinney intends the book Cabin Fever for kids only.
C.Wimpy Kid books are printed 6 million copies altogether.
D.Cabin Fever has a lot in common with other Wimpy Kid books.
63.The purpose of writing the passage is to ______.
A.promote sales B.give opinions
C.offer information D.make a comment

I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric (怪僻的) farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything.
Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I hadn't the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go.
It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn't know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died. “She meant more to me than anyone…even my own wife!” he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal (丑闻). I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn (厩). “I wouldn't leave her out in the cold!” he said.
Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barndoor. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground. “She was such a good cow! I wouldn't let anyone but a doctor touch her!” he said, and burst into tears again.
