-- How are the things in your village?

 -- Modern farming methods have been brought in and the villagers are ________ now than before.

  A. well off                B. better off                  C. badly off                  D. worse off

B

解析：根據(jù)前面的“引進(jìn)了現(xiàn)代化的耕種方法”來判斷，村民的生活比以前“更富裕了”，所以用well off的比較級better off。worse off是badly off的比較級。

    I believe in miracles(奇跡)because I've seen so many of them. One day, a patient was referred to me who was one hundred and two years old. “There’s a  36   in my upper jaw,”she said. “I told my own dentist it's nothing, but he   37   I come to see you.”

Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her. He would    38   to add something, but she stopped him. She wanted to tell everything herself. I found a large cancer that spread over much of the    39   of her mouth. A careful examination later   40  that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer.

    During her next appointment, I explained to her the   41  of the problem. She clasped my hand in hers and said, “I know you’re worried about me, but I’m just  42 . ”

    I thought otherwise. After considerable   43   on my part, and kindness on her part because she wanted to   44   me, she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon(外科醫(yī)生). She saw him, but as I expected,    45   treatment.

    About six months later she returned to my office, still energetic and   46   .

  “How are you?”I asked.

  “I’m just fine, honey, ”she responded  47  high spirits.“When can I get started on fixing my dentures(假牙)?”

      Surprised to see her at all, I answered   48   ,“Let me take a look in your mouth and we’ll see about it. ”

      I had read of such things happening, but had    51   seen them with my own eyes. That was my first miracle. Since then I've seen many others, because they keep getting   52   to see. In fact, miracles are daily events for me now. And people are a miracle,   53   through them we have a chance to know ourselves and to   54   the miracles of one another.

      Since my first miracle, I've come to understand that the time and place for a miracle is 55 we choose to find it.

 Edward Wilson is America’s, if not the world’s, leading naturalist. In The Future of Life, he takes us on a tour of the world’s natural resources(資源). How are they used? What has been lost? What remains and is it able to continue with the present speed of use? Wilson also points out the need to understand fully the biodiversity(生物多樣性)of our earth.

    Wilson begins with an open letter to the pioneer in environment (環(huán)境) protection, Henry David Thoreau. He compares today’s Walden Pond with that of Thoreau’s day. Wilson will use such comparisons for the rest of the book. The problem is clear: man has done great damage to his home over the years. Van the earth, with human help, be made to return to biodiversity levels that will be able to support us in the future?

Biodiversity, Wilson argues, is the key to settling many problems the earth faces today. Even our agricultural crops can gain advantages from it. A mere hundred species(物種) are the basis of our food supply, of which but twenty carry the load. Wilson suggests changing this situation by looking into ten thousand species that could be made use of, which will be a way to reduce the clearing of the natural homes of plants and animals to enlarge farming areas.

At the end of the book, Wilson discusses the importance of human values in considering the environment. If you are to continue to live on the earth, you may well read and act on the ideas in this book.

72. We learn from the text that Wilson cares most about ______

A. the environment for plants                    B. the biodiversity of our earth

C. the wastes of natural resources             D. the importance of human values

73. How many species are most important to our present food supply?

A. Twenty.   B. Eighty.    C. One hundred     D. Ten thousand.

74. Wilson suggests that one way to keep biodiversity is to _______.

A. learn how to farm scientifically             B. build homes for some dying species

C. make it clear what to eat                      D. use more species for food

75. We can infer that the text is _______

A. a description of natural resources         B. a research report

C. a book review                                    D. an introduction to a scientist.
