John made sure that he had locked up the house, got into his car, and drove along the street he lived at until he came to the main road. He turned left onto it and got into the fast lane(车道). Soon he was heading for the airport where he was to catch the 4:30 flight to Stockholm. There wasn’t much traffic on the road, just a few large trucks, one or two buses and cars. He gave a quick look at the clock in his car and was pleased to see that he had time to spare. But he did not want to stop on the way, so he kept a fixed speed. After three quarters of an hour the familiar airport buildings were just ahead of him and he drove into the car park and found somewhere to park his car. Then, having checked that all the doors were locked, he got out. He looked up as a huge airplane passed directly overhead.

This incident happened in 1621.

Everything was ready for the first Thanksgiving Day(感恩节) feast(庆典). The men had been out hunting and there was much deer meat and turkey. The fields had produced their rich harvest of corn and pumpkin(南瓜). The housewives were busy cooking and baking bread, and an invited Indian guest seemed to be eating white flowers at which the new settlers, the Europeans, who had left their homeland to make their new homes in America, greatly wondered. When the Indian saw the puzzled expression on the white men’s faces, he smiled and drew some corn seeds from a deerskin bag which he carried with him, he placed the corn seeds on the hot stones near the fire. Then he waited and suddenly the seeds began to hop about and to burst with a loud noise: Pop! Pop! Pop!

The Indian laughed as the new settlers expressed their surprise. The corn seeds jumped off the hot rock as they popped with a great noise, turning into white things that looked like little flowers.

The new settlers tasted the new food and found it tasty. That’s how the new settlers first learned about popcorn which can be bought in Beijing, Shanghai, and many other big cities and most people, especially children, enjoy eating it even now.

C．Many European people left their countries for the New Continent.

A．asked the Indian guest for some

B．had great difficulty in understanding what they noticed

while their wives _________.

A．were engaged(从事) in outer productive activities; were in charge of housework

Some day people will certainly try to build settlements on the moon. The best place for houses in a moon town will be a cave or a tunnel. Underground houses will not be squashed by meteorites that constantly foil on the moon from outer space. The temperature in a cave doesn’t change as much as the temperature outside. This will be important on the moon, since daytime is so hot that food could be cooked in the rocks, and the nights get bitterly cold.

Pioneer moon homes may be made of airtight plastic that can be blown up like a balloon inside the cave. The reason for this is that the moon has no air around it. The pioneers will have to take along from the earth the oxygen masks when they are away from home. But the balloon house itself will be filled with air. Perhaps the house will have beds, tables and chairs, built into it. These can be inflated, too. So people will sleep, eat and work on air! Moon-house building will be easy. The moon’s gravity is less than the earth’s. Everything weighs only one-sixth as much as it does on the earth.

68.Which of the following is TRUE?

A．The people on the moon will not leave their homes.

B．The people on the moon will wear oxygen masks when they leave their homes.

C．The moon homes are of plastic.

D．The temperature in a cave changes as much as the temperature outside.

69.Why will the pioneers have to take along from the earth the oxygen they need for

breathing?

A．Because the moon homes are made of airtight plastic.

B．Because the balloon house will be filled with air.

C．Because moon people will sleep, eat and work on air.

D．Because the moon has no air around it.

70.If a stone weighs 18 tons on the earth, how much does it weigh on the moon?

A．Six tons.

B．Fifty-five tons.

C．One hundred and eight tons.

D．Three tons.

71.According to the passage, can people build cities on the moon?

A．No, they can’t.

B．Perhaps people can do.

C．Of course. People can build cities on the moon in the future.

D．People only think so.

（E）

Today our knowledge of food and what it does for our bodies is far more advanced than that of the ancients. Now we know about vitamins and how each kind of vitamin helps in the growth of a particular part of our bodies. There are on the market all kinds of vitamin pills which one can take to make up for one’s lack of certain important things which are needed for normal health. Of course, if we eat well and properly, the food that we eat will take care of our bodies without these pills and so there is no need to take any kinds of vitamin pills unless our doctor tells us that our bodies are short of something which can be supplied by them.

Generally speaking, everything we eat does some good to our bodies, but if we eat too much of one kind of food and pay no attention to others, we may have too much of one kind of chemical substance and not enough of others. Then, we may be in trouble.

We are often told that we must eat some meat at each meal in order to get the necessary protein(蛋白质). That is only partly true, for proteins are not found only in meat. We can also get them from some vegetables. The best advice about what to eat is that we should eat all kinds of food but never too much of any.

72.According to the passage, we now know ____________.

A．more and more about food and health

B．what food is fit to eat

C．how many kinds of vitamins there are

D．food is important in the growth of our bodies

73. People take certain vitamin pills when they ____________.

A．find their bodies are short of something

B．want to build up their bodies

C．want to cure some diseases

D．think certain foods don’t agree with them

74.The writer thinks we should ____________.

A．be careful in choosing food

B．eat special food

C．have limited food

D．have balanced food

75.The main topic of the passage is ________________.

A．food and health

B．vitamins and proteins

C．meat, vegetables and protein

D．food and vitamin pills
