After 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner.   36   woman was my mother, who has been a widow for 19 years, but my work had made   37   impossible to visit her very often. That night I called to   38  her to go out for dinner.“What’s wrong? Are you   39  ?”she asked. “I thought that it would be   40   to spend some time with you. Just the two of us,”I answered. She thought about it   41   moment, and agreed.

That Friday after work,   42   I drove to pick her up, I was a bit nervous. When I arrived at her house, I   43   that, she, too, seemed to be   44   about our date. She had curled her hair and was wearing the dress that she had worn to   45   her last wedding anniversary.

We went to a restaurant that,   46   not elegant, was very nice and cozy. When I read the menu, Mom sat there   47   at me. A nostalgic(怀旧的)smile was   48   her lips. During the dinner, we had a(an)   49   conversation―nothing special but catching up on(了解)recent events of each other’s life.

A few days   50  , my mother died of a heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn’t have a chance to do   51   for her. Some time later, I received an envelope with a note   52  “You will never know what that night meant to me. I’m looking forward to the   53   dinner. I love you, Son.”

At that moment, I understood the importance of saying in time“I LOVE YOU”. Nothing in life is more important than your   54  . Give them the time they deserve, because these things cannot be   55   till“some other time”.

       There are many famous museums throughout the world where people can enjoy art. Washington has the National Gallery of Art; London, the British Museum. Florida International University(FIU) in Miami also shows art for people to see. And it does so without a building ,or even a wall for its drawings and paintings FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the University to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone. You can call the telephone number of a University computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art, produced electronically by artists on their own computer. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the picture and drawings.

       Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. he says he starts the museum because computer artistes had no place to show their work.

       A computer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send the records, or floppy discs, to others to see on their computers. he could also but his pictures on paper. but to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist needed an expensive laser printer.

       Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the picture in the museum are made by students. Mr Shostak said the FIU museum will make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. he says artists enjoys their work much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.

To prevent the deserts coming near, China has planted billions of trees---to replace destroyed forests and as barriers against the sand. This isn’t a cure, though, say experts, as thirsty trees can make the problem worse by taking in groundwater.

“Planting tress is one way, but it isn’t that simple. It doesn’t solve the basic issue of water resources,” says Wu Bo, a professor. “We need to calculate how much water the trees will absorb, or else it could have a negative effect.”

Villagers in Zhengxin have taken on this challenge, with limited success. When the irrigation channels began to run dry, Lu Xianglin switched from wheat to cotton on his land. He also planted trees to protect his fields from sandstorms. He says he still gets good yields using flood irrigation and earns a good income for his family.

Other farmers haven’t stuck it out: About one in three have left Zhengxin in the past 10 years after their wheat crops died. Young people who can find jobs in the towns rarely return.

Last week, Mr Lu joined the other men in his village on a government-arranged trip to see the land that has been set aside for their relocation, nearly 40 miles to the south. The next day, he was back, shaking his head at the plan. The idea of uprooting his family troubles him, as does the idea of giving up the land that fed his forefathers. He prefers to stay and keep up the fight.

“With enough water, this problem can be solved,” Lu says. “We can plant trees and grass, and they will grow bigger. That will stop the desert.”

Experts say that farmers could switch to drip irrigation to lessen their water intake for growing crops. Elsewhere in the region, farmers have built brick greenhouses as part of a plan to grow vegetables using less water. Roadside signs urge farmers to “Save Water, Protect the Environment”.

 

49. The negative effect of planting trees in deserts is that __________.

   A. it can make groundwater become less

   B. it can prevent the sand moving freely

   C. it can stop crops growing well

   D. it can get the soil to become poor

50. Why did Mr Lu NOT accept the idea of relocation?

   A. Because the plan of relocation will cost him much money.

   B. Because his family had trouble moving away.

   C. Because he was reluctant to give up his land.

   D. Because he would rather stay than fight against the deserts.

51. What can we infer from the passage?

   A. The deserts drive more and more people to leave their homes for their lives.

   B People have no means to fight against the land becoming desert

   C. Water is the biggest barrier for people to stop the desert.

   D. Planting trees cannot solve the problem of desertification of farmland

52. What advice is given by experts to save water?

   A. To plant more trees         B. To build greenhouses

   C. To change crops             D. To use drip irrigation.
