Farmers all over the world know the(4)importanceof the seasons.They know that there is a season to plant and a season to(5)harvest;everything must be done in its own time.Although the rain pours down,stopping all(6)outdooractivities,farmers lift their(7)facesto the heavens and smile.Despite the inconvenience,they know that the rain(8)providesthe nourishment ( 营养) their crops need to grow and flourish (繁荣).The rains in the month of April give rise to the beautiful flowers in the month of May.

8.Once upon a time,a student was in a physics class.He had achieved an (41)A perfect score,but the marker had (42)B him poorly on one question.The question had asked him how he would (43)D the height of a building using a barometer(气压计).
The student had written down."Go to the (44)C of the building.Drop the barometer and
( 45 )Bthe seconds until it drops on the sidewalk below.(46)D use the formula(公式)for acceleration by gravity to (47)A the height of the building."
Of course,with the help of a barometer,the (48)C expected the student to use air pressure as a tool for measuring height.So he couldn't (49)B that part of the test.
When the student brought up that his answer (50A solve the question being asked the professor promised he would let the student answer the question again with a different (51)D.And if the student solved the problem (52)C,he would award him the marks for the question.
Immediately the student (53)A that he would use the barometer to knock on the (54)B of the landlord in the building.When the landlord answered the door.he would ask,"How (55)D is this building?"
At once,the professor (56)A what the student was doing.He asked him if he knew of any
(57)Cmethods to reach the answer.The student answered that he would (58)B a long string to the barometer and measure the length of the string.
The professor decided to (59)D the student the marks.As the story goes,the student was young Niels Bohr,later becoming the famous (60)A and discovering the nature of electrons inside atoms.
