But there were very few machines. Most of the work was done by the farm family. Sometimes more workmen were needed in busy seasons. Work done by horses took up 79 percent; by men, 15 percent; and machine work only took up 6 percent.Today all that has changed. On many modern farms machines now will do 96 percent of the work, while man does 3 percent. As for horses, they do 1 percent of the whole work. The children go to school by bus every morning, the parents work on the farm or in the house and other people’s help is hardly needed. Their work has been replaced (取代) by a whole army of farm machines. 56. Today on an American farm machines do ________ times more work than in thepast.A. 17B. 16C. 15D. 1457.

Five.BEveryone talks about the “five” senses of man. And it is true that we get our information (信息) about the outside from our sense of sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste. Researchers tell us that the sense of sight – our visual sense –gives us up to 80% of what we know about the world outside our bodies; while the other senses, the auditory (hearing), the olfactory (smell), the tactile (touch), and the gustatory (taste) bring into our brains information about the other 20% of what is happening. But there are two other senses that we cannot get along without, though they are little noticed. These are the senses of balance (平衡), without which we would act like a drunk after a heavy drink, and the kinesthetic sense（动觉）, which gives us our ideas about our own motion (运动).61. Which is the best title for this passage?A. The Five Senses of Man.B. The Senses of Man.C. Senses and Information.D. Important Senses.62. The senses of hearing, smell, touch and taste supply us with ________.A. about half of our information about the worldB. about 20% of our information about the worldC. about 80% of our information about the worldD. all the needed our information about the world63. The other senses besides the “five” senses of man that the passage mentions (提到)are ________.A. the tactile and the gustatory sensesB. the senses of balance and touchC. the senses of kinesthesia and balanceD. the olfactory and the auditory senses64.

It’s noisy and dirty and I got very tried. At the weekends I like to leave the city and get some fresh air and a good rest. A few weekends ago I decided to see my parents. I was really looking forward to it.My parents live a long way away. I went to see them with James, a friend, and we drove down on Friday night. In the middle of the trip it began to rain. The roads became very wet and it was difficult to drive. We arrived home just after midnight, feeling tired. The next morning it was still raining. James took his car to the local garage which was very good.In the afternoon the weather became better. We wanted to go for a drive. My parents lent us their car. That was no good. Their car didn’t work! We rang the garage. “Oh,no.” they said, “your car won’t be ready until tomorrow.” So it wasn’t possible to go for a drive. We decided to play a word game. When we didn’t agree about a word we looked for a dictionary. It wasn’t there. Suddenly my mother remembered. “I lent it to your sister. She took it with her when she left.” The word game wasn’t any good without a dictionary.On Sunday my mother dropped a suitcase on her foot and we had to hire a taxi to take her to hospital. When James and I drove back we got stuck in a traffic jam (交通阻塞). Next time I want to have a rest. I’ll stay in the city!65．At the weekends I usually .A．stay in the city B．visit another cityC．go to the country D．play with my children66．My parents live .A．in a long street B．far from the cityC．near where I live D．with me 67．We arrived .A．in the afternoon B．on Sunday morningC．in the middle of the night D．right nowDWilliam Shakespeare, the great English writer of drama（戏剧）, was born in 1564 in Stratford-on-Avon．We do not know everything about Shakespeare’s early life．But we know that he studied at the Grammar School in Stratford, and that he became interested in the theatre when he was still a boy．In 1586, Shakespeare went to London, where he worked in a theatre for some years before he began to write his own plays．Shakespeare soon became well-known in London.Every play he wrote was very good and new to the people of the capital.Queen Elizabeth liked Shakespeare’s plays．By the end of the 16th century, Shakespeare and his friends had enough money to build their own theatre.But we must think that Shakespeare had no difficulties in his life.Some writers were against him because their plays were worse than his．68．Shakespeare is in England．A．a scientist B．an inventor C．a play writer D．a story writer 69．Shakespeare worked in the theatre ．A．when he started to write his playsB．after he left the Grammar SchoolC．when he was twenty-two years oldD．after he liked the theatre very much70．Some writers were against Shakespeare because ．A．they hated himB．their plays were less famous than hisC．they wrote fewer plays than heD．their money was less than hisE根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
