二、阅读理解
From the nation's earliest days, farming has played a very important role in American economy and culture. Early in the nation's life, farmers were seen as typical examples of economic qualities such as hard working, honest, kind hearted and independent.
American farmers think a number of factors lead to the success of their agriculture: The American Midwest has some of the richest soil in the world. Rainfall is enough over most areas of the country; even in some areas where there is not enough rainfall, the rivers and underground water can also support the farming. Besides, large capital investments (资本投入) and highly trained farmers have also been used to develop American agriculture.
The first two decades of the 20th century turned out to be the golden age of American agriculture. Farm prices were high as the demand (需求) for goods increased and land values rose. With the development of technology, the food production continued to increase. The good years of the early 20th century ended with falling prices following World War Ⅰ. At the end of World War Ⅱ， the farm economy faced the challenge of overproduction. During that time, because of progress in technology, some advanced machines and chemicals related to farming were widely used, and that meant production per hectare (公顷) was higher than ever. Today, we see a different set of farms trying to meet consumers'demands all over the world.
We can see a lot of changes on American agriculture over time. In 1940, there were 6 million farms averaging 67 hectares each. By the late 1990s, there were only about 2.2 million farms averaging 190 hectares in size. During the same period, farm employment decreased greatly — from 12.5 million in 1930 to 1.2 million in the 1990s. While production has doubled over the last 50 years, the number of farms has dropped by more than two thirds. Today, about 150,000 American farmers produce most of our food.
1．What did people think of farmers in America's early days
A．People thought very highly of them.
B．People didn't like some of their lifestyles.
C．They didn't get enough attention from the society.
D．They were important for the development of technology.
2．What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A．Why American agriculture is successful.
B．The social support for American agriculture.
C．How American farmers develop their agriculture.
D．The natural environment for American agriculture.
3．How does the author mainly develop Paragraph 3
A．By giving examples.
B．By giving descriptions.
C．By following the order of time.
D．By following the order of importance.

2．an 考查冠词。此处表示泛指，且altitude是以元音音素开头的，所以用不定冠词an。
3．are spoken 考查动词的时态和语态。此处表示一般事实，所以用一般现在时，又因为languages是speak的承受者，所以用被动语态，故填are spoken。
4．to 考查介词。too...to表示“太……而不能……”。根据语境可知，此处意为：虽然在肯尼亚上学是免费的，但是很多孩子太忙了而不能去上课。所以此处填to。
5．their 考查代词。根据语境可知，此处表示“他们的家人”，所以用形容词性物主代词their。
6．are 考查主谓一致。主语是Music和storytelling，且表示一般情况，所以用谓语动词are。
7．to pass 考查非谓语动词。此处用不定式作目的状语，所以填to pass。
8．location 考查名词。根据语境可知，此处是讲肯尼亚的地理位置，所以用locate的名词形式location。
