One day when Isaac Newton was reading a book under an apple tree on the farm, an apple fell down and hit him on the head. For most people that would be the end of the story, but not for Newton. Why did the apple fall out of the tree? Does everything fall? What makes things fall? Can anything stop things from falling? Are the sun, moon, and stars falling? Why don’t they ever hit the ground?
So many questions. Newton spent many years answering these questions by thinking and doing experiments. He made up the law of gravity. According to this law everything pulls everything else to itself by a force called gravity. How strong that force is depends on how heavy the things are and how close together.
Newton’s law of gravity not only explained how things fall on earth, but now planets move around the sun and how moons move around planets. A friend of his, Edmund Halley, decided to try Newton’s theory on comets. People had been studying comets for hundreds of years without figuring them out, so he decided to study their reports and compare them to Newton’s theory.
Up till then people had thought that comets just came and went, and that nobody could know when or why. But Newton’s law of gravity gave rules that Halley could use to study the records of comets. He found some reports of a big bright comet that he was sure was the same one, coming back every 75 years. He predicted when it would come back next.
If anybody still didn’t believe Newton, then the appearance of Halley’s Comet just when Halley had predicted it using Newton’s ideas was enough to convince them. Halley’s Comet has come a few times since then, always right on schedule. You’ll be able to see it on its next trip near the sun and earth when you’re old enough to be a grandparent.
71.The passage starts with a story _____________.
A.because it was such a funny one
B.because Newton liked to eat apples
C.to show how much Newton liked reading
D/to show what started Newton’s discovering gravity
72.According to the author, Newton was especially different from others in that ____________.
A.he liked reading under apple trees

C.he was very quiet and patient
D.he was so much interested in science
73.Newton’s law of gravity can tell us that _____________.
A.gravity has no relationship with the weight of things.\
B.how things fall on earth
C.it is not of help to the study of comets
D.it can explain everything in the world
74.The underlined word “ convince” in the last paragraph probably means “______________”
A. make… believe B. make… doubt
C. make… understand D. make… interested
75. Which of the following is TRUE about Edmund Halley?
A. He discovered a big bright comet.
B. He helped Newton to create his theory.
C. He predicted when the same comet would come back.
D. He studied the same comet for 75 years.

If you think American cooking means opening a package and throwing the contents into the microwave oven （微波炉）， think again. On one hand, it’s true that many Americans have cold cereal ( 谷类食品 ) for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and instant dinners. From busy homemakers to working people, many Americans enjoy the convenience of fast food that can be ready to serve in 10 minutes or less. On the other hand, many Americans realize the importance of cooking skills. Parents－especially mothers－see the importance of training their children－ especially daughters. Most Americans think that there’s nothing better than a good home-cooked meal. But with cooking, as with any other skill, good results don’t happen by accident.
Probably every cook has his or her own way of cooking. But there are some basic skills that most people follow. For example, baking is a main method of preparing food in America. For that reason, Americans would find it next to impossible to live without an oven. American cooks pay special attention to the balance of foods, too. In planning a big meal they try to include meat, a few vegetables, some bread and often a dessert. They also like to make sure the meal is colouful. Having several different colors of food on the plate usually makes for a healthy meal.
For those who need guidance in their cooking, or for those who have just run out of ideas, recipes are a great help. Recipes list all the ingredients for a dish ( generally in the order used ), the amount of each to use, and a description of how to put them together.
61.This passage mainly tells us that _______________.
A.Americans usually have fast food, but they pay special attention to cooking as well.
B.without an oven, Americans find it impossible to live conveniently.
C.Americans pay special attention to recipes and nutritious meals.
D.Americans like to have several different colors of food on the plate.
62.The underlined word “ convenience “ in the first paragraph means _______________.
A.the lower and acceptable price
B.being suitable to one’s comfort or needs.
C.The high quality and low price.
D.The unusual taste of the food.
63.Many Americans have cold cereal for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and instant dinner because ______________.
A.they like instant food very much
B.they don’t like cooking at all.
C.most American working people are busy and don’t have time to cook
D.fast food is delicious and it usually contains a lot of vitamins.
64.By saying “ But with cooking, as with any other skill, good results don’t happen by accident, the author means _____________.
A.good cooking doesn’t come easily; it needs a lot of practice
B.just like any other skill, cooking may bring good results
C.cooking comes from one’s gift, not through practice
D cooking can lead to accidents
65.From the passage, we know that _____________.
A.Americans don’t care about food
B.Americans are not good at cooking because they like to use recipes
C.an oven plays an important role in cooking for Americans
D.while cooking, Americans usually run out of ideas
