IV．阅读理解。（每小题1.5分，共30分）
阅读下列短文，从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
There
was
an
old
mule(骡子).
One
day
accidentally
he
fell
into
the
farmer's
well.
The
farmer
thought
for
a
while
and
said
to
himself
that
neither
the
well
nor
the
old
mule
was
important
to
him.
So
he
decided
to
use
soil
to
bury
the
old
mule
in
the
well.
Then
the
farmer
called
his
neighbours
and
they
started
to
put
the
soil
into
the
well
together.
The
old
mule
was
quite
afraid
in
the
beginning.
But
soon
one
hopeful
idea
came
to
his
mind
-
every
time
when
a
shovel(铁铲)
of
soil
landed
on
his
back,
he
would
shake
it
off
and
step
up!
He
said
these
words
to
himself
again
and
again,
“Shake
it
off
and
step
up.”
This
way
he
could
fight
against
the
panic
(恐慌)
and
encourage
himself.
After
some
time,
the
mule
had
stepped
over
the
well's
wall.
Although
terribly
tired,
he
was
the
winner
and
he
saved
his
own
life.
He
decided
to
face
his
difficulty
bravely
and
not
to
give
up,
and
finally
he
won.
(
)
36.
Why
didn't
the
farmer
want
to
save
the
mule
A.
Because
he
thought
the
well
should
be
buried.
B.
Because
his
neighbours
thought
the
mule
was
useless.
C.
Because
both
the
well
and
the
mule
were
useless
for
him.
D.
Because
he
didn't
have
the
ability
to
save
the
mule.
(
)

the
mule

was
in

B
Do
you
know
anything
about
the
invention
of
the
bar
code(条形码)
A
small
food
store
owner
found
it
was
difficult
to
keep
records
of
the
product
information.
In
1948;
he
contacted
the
Drexel
Institute
of
Technology
to
solve
this
problem.
Bernard
Silver
was
interested
in
it
and
he
set
out
to
look
into
it.
Silver
and
his
students
realized
their
answer
in
the
form
of
ultraviolet
light(紫外线)，ink
and
a
scanner(扫描仪).
The
system
did
work
at
first,
but
it's
very
expensive
and
sometimes
the
system
didn't
work
well.
If
the
invention
was
to
become
popular
in
grocery
stores,
the
problems
had
to
be
solved.
Finally,
Silver
solved
them.
The
patent
(专利权)
for
the
bar
code
system
was
asked
by
Silver
and
Woodland
in
1949.
But
the
patent
was
not
given
until
1952.
Although
this
patent
was
given,
the
system
was
still
not
popular
among
store
owners.
In
1966,
the
system
began
moving
its
way
into
more
grocery
stores.
Logicorn
developed
the
Universal
Grocery
Products
Identification
Number
(普遍标识号)
in
1970.
Marsh's
superstore
in
Troy
was
the
first
store
to
set
up
this
bar
code
reading
system.
It
became
very
popular
ever
since,
and
now
it's
obviously
popular
in
all
types
of
stores
worldwide.

growing.
It
explains
why

the

southern
Chinese,

the
northern
ones

eat
wheat
flour
(面粉).
And
a
part
about
pickles(腌制食品)
tells
about
a
woman
in

her
hometown
in
Jilin
and
makes

My
invention
My
invention
is
a
car.
People
can
use
it
on
the
land
or
in
the
water.
This
kind
of
car
has
two
wings
on
its
two
sides
and
four
wheels
under
the
car.
On
the
ground,
it
can
run
as
well
as
the
ordinary
car.
However,
when
it
is
in
the
water,
the
four
wheels
will
hide
under
the
car
and
the
two
wings
will
become
two
paddles
to
make
the
car
go
forward.
Compared
with
the
ordinary
car,
this
kind
of
car
is
more
convenient
and
uses
less
petrol.
More
importantly,
it
can
save
resources
and
make
less
pollution.
I
think
my
invention
will
help
people
live
a
better
life
in
the
future.
