Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.During the early years of this century，wheat was seen as the very lifeblood of Western Canada. When the crops were good，the economy was good；when the crops failed. there was depression. People on city streets watched the yields and the price of wheat with almost as much feeling as if they were growers. The marketing of wheat became an increasingly favorite topic of conversation.War set the stage for the most dramatic events in marketing the western crop. For years farmers mistrusted speculative(投机的)grain selling as carried on through the Winnipeg Grain Exchange. Wheat prices were generally low in the autumn，but farmers could not wait for markets to improve. It had happened too often that they sold their wheat soon after harvest when farm debts were coming due，only to see prices rising and speculators getting rich. On various occasions，producer groups asked for firmer controls，but governments had no wish to become involved，at least not until wartime wheat prices threatened to run wild.Anxious to check inflation(通货膨胀)and rising living costs，the federal government appointed a board of grain supervisors(监视员)to handle deliveries from the crops of 1917 and 1918. Grain Exchange trading was suspended，and farmers sold at prices fixed by the board. To handle the crop of 1919，the government appointed the first Canadian Wheat Board，with full authority to buy，sell. and set prices.The author uses the term “lifeblood” to indicate that wheat was______.A. difficult to produce in large quantitiesB. susceptible to many parasites(寄生虫)C. essential to the health of the countryD. expensive to gather and transport

The Law to Keep the Oil Industry under Control
The Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control.A new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline;production limits have been laid down(though these have already been
raised);and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers.But the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems,and few people believe that the Government will be able to hold things back for long.As on Norwegian politician said last week:“We will soon be changed beyond all recognition.”
Ever since the war,the Government has been carrying out a programme of development in the area north of the Arctic
Circle.During the past few years this programme has had a great deal of success:Tromso has been built up into a local
capital with a university,a large hospital and a healthy industry.But the oil industry has already started to draw people south,
and within a few years the whole northern policy could be in ruins.
The effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north,however.With nearly 100 percent employment,everyone
can see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oil
industry.Some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods from abroad.The
real argument over oil is its threat to the Norwegian way of life.Farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population,but they are an important part of it,because Norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as
essentially Norwegian.And it is the farmers and the fishermen who are most critical of the oil industry because of the damage
that it might cause to the countryside and to the sea.
Norwegian farmers and fishermen have an important influence because _______.A.they form such a large part of Norwegian ideal.
B.their lives and values represent the Norwegian ideal.
C.their work is so useful to the rest of Norwegian society.
D.they regard as a threat to the Norwegian way of life.

第三篇Houses in 18th Century North AmericaSeventeenth-century houses in colonial North America were simple structures that were primarily functional,carrying over traditional designs that went back to the Middle Ages.During the first half of the eighteenth century,however,houses began to show a new elegance.As wealth increased, more and more colonists built fine houses.Since architecture was not yet a specialized profession in the colonies,the design of buildings was left either to amateur designers or to carpenters who undertook to interpret architectural manuals imported from England.Inventories of colonial libraries show an astonishing number of these handbooks for builders,and the houses erected during the eighteenth century show their influence.Nevertheless,most domestic architecture of the first three-quarters of the eighteenth century displays a wide divergence of taste and freedom of application of the rules laid down in these books.Increasing wealth and growing sophistication throughout the colonies resulted in houses of improved design,whether the material was wood,stone or brick.New England still favored wood, though brick houses became common in Boston and towns, where the danger of fire gave an impetus to the use of more durable material. A few houses in New England were built of store,but only in Pennsylvania and adjacent area was stone widely used in dwellings.An increased use of brick in houses and outbuildings is noticeable in Virginia and Maryland,but wood remained the most popular material even in houses built by wealthy landowners.In the Carolinas,even in closely packed Charleston,wooden houses were much more common than brick.Eighteenth-century houses showed great interior improvement over their predecessors.Windows were made larger and shutters removed.Large,clear panes replaced the small leaded glass of the seventeenth century.Doorways were larger and more decorative.Fireplaces became decorative features of rooms.Walls were made of plaster or wood,sometimes elaborately paneled.White paint began to take the place of blues,yellows,greens,and lead colors,which had been popular for walls in the earlier years.After about 1730,advertisements for wallpaper styles in scenic patterns began to appear in colonial newspapers.Where were wood houses less common?A:Virginia.B:Pennsylvania.C:Boston.D:Charleston.

问答题Practice 10 What we today call American folk art was, art of, by, and for ordinary, everyday I “folks” who, with increasing prosperity and leisure, created a market for art of all kinds, and especially for portraits. Citizens of prosperous, essentially middle-class republics—whether ancient Romans，seventeenth-century Dutch burghers, or nineteenth-century Americans—have always shown a marked taste for portraiture. Starting in the late eighteenth century, the United States contained an increasing number of such people, and of the artists who could meet their demands. The earliest American folk art portraits come, not surprisingly, from New England—especially Connecticut and Massachusetts—for this was a wealthy and populous region and the center of a strong craft tradition. Within a few decades after the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, the population was pushing westward, and the portrait painters could be found at work in western New York, Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois, and Missouri. Midway through its first century as a nation, the United States' population had increased roughly five times, and eleven new states had been added to original thirteen. During these years, the demand for portraits grew and grew, eventually to be satisfied by camera.
