When tea and coffee was first introduced to Europe in the 18^th century, people

thought they were harm. So the king of Sweden decided to find out that this was true

or not. It was happened that there were two brothers were in prison at the time. The

lived many years without any problem. At last the one who had to drink tea died on the

age of 83 and the other lived even long. Because of this, Sweden is today one of the

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

　 Why is setting goals important? 　　71　 　Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen.

　 Successful people imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals. 　　72　 　It’s like having a map to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination in mind which can be found on a map. She can drive straight there surely without any wasted time of wrong turns. The other driver has no goal, or destination or map. She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas. Which driver do you want to be?

　　 73　　 They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people usually just let life happen by accident. Goals aren’t difficult to set and they aren’t difficult to reach. 　　74　 　You are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life.

　　 75　　 Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power. Like a contract with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget. Also when you write your goals in a particular way, you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goal.

A. Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it.

B. Winners in life set goals and follow them through.

C. It’s up to you to find out what your goals really are.

D. It’s difficult for a driver to reach his destination without a map.

E. Because goals can help you do, be, and experience everything you want in life.

F. By setting goals you are taking control of your life.

G. Because everybody should have a goal in his mind.

　“Congratulations, Mr. Jones, it’s a girl.”

　 Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and bring forth a different response from every man who hears these words. Some feel proud when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good fathers. Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time. For other couples, pregnancy was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly.

　 Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is clear that the change from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this resocialization process. Although many books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature referred to the role of a father.

　 It is argued by some writers that the transition (转化) to the father’s role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the transition the wife must make to the mother’s role. The mother’s role seems to require a complete transformation in daily life and highly innovative (革新性的) adaptation, on the other hand, the father’s role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the family.

64. According to the author, being a father ______.

　 A. brings a feeling of excitement to some men

　 B. makes some men feel proud and others worried.

　 C. has a different meaning for those who have daughters

　 D. means nothing but more responsibilities

65. In the third paragraph, the author _______.

　 A. criticizes (批评) fathers for not taking enough responsibilities in bringing up their children

　 B. excuses the American writers for ignoring the difficulties of being a father

　 C. supports the idea that the chief (主要的) role of a father is to earn money for the family

　 D. complains about the lack of social program to help husbands get used to the role of a father

66. The transition to the mother’s role requires that the wife ______.

　 A. change her life style in a highly innovative way

　 B. stay at home to take care of the baby

　 C. make a complete change in her everyday life to deal with the new situation

　 D. help her husband in his resocialization process

67. Some writers argue that with respect of (关于) the change of roles, fathers, compared with mothers, _______.

A. have an easier job to do　　　　　　　　 B. have to make more difficult adaptation

C. have to shoulder more responsibilities　　 D. can usually do a better job

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B

　 Australia, the last continent, was discovered by ships belonging to European nations in the seventeenth century. These nations were less interested in changing it into a colony (殖民地) than in exploiting it. As in the early history of the United States, it was the English who set up the settlements in Australia. This history and the geography of these two British colonies have some other things in common as well.

　 Australia and the United States are about the same in size, and their western lands are both not rich in soil. It was the eastern coast of Australia and America that the English first settled, and both colonies soon began to develop towards the west. However, this westward movement took place more because the English were searching for better land than because the population was increasing. Settlements of the western part of both countries developed quickly after gold was discovered in America in 1849 and in Australia two years later.

　 Although the development of these two countries has a lot in common, there are some striking (显著的) differences as well. The United States gained its independence from England by revolution while Australia won its independence without having to go to war. Australia, unlike the United States, was firstly turned into a colony by English prisoners and its economic development was in wheat growing and sheep raising. By 1922, for example, Australia had fifteen times more sheep than it had people, or almost half as many sheep as there are people today in the United States. Yet, in spite of these and other main difference, Australia and the United States have more in common with each other than either one has with most of the rest of the world.

60. In the early history of America and Australia, both colonies developed towards the west firstly for the reason that _____.

　 A. the population was increasing rapidly in the east

　 B. the English thought there might be richer land there

　 C. gold was discovered there

　 D. fewer people lived there

61. In the early 1920s, ______.

　 A. Australia had one fifteenth as many people as sheep

　 B. there were more sheep in Australia than in the United States

　 C. the population in Australia was greater than that of the United States

　 D. the United States had twice as many sheep as people

62. Australia, unlike the United States, ______.

　 A. did not discover gold until the late 1840s

　 B. was the last and biggest continent to be discovered

　 C. was not rich in gold in its western part

　 D. won its independence by peaceful means

63. In the last paragraph, the underlined sentence means _______.

　 A. the United States and Australia do not have any main difference

　 B. the United States and Australia have nothing in common with the rest of the world

　 C. the United States and Australia have much more in common than they have with other countries

　 D. in common with the rest of the world, the United States and Australia have a lot of differences

　 Trogmire’s good friend, Tremor Troll, tried to comfort him. “What’s the big deal? I think Treasure Troll is kind of cute (可爱的). And she seems to be nice enough.”

　 Tremor followed Trogmire’s example and decided to save his apple pies for later. However, he carefully placed the bag into his lunch box. “Do you have any ideas about how to solve your problem?” Tremor asked.

　 “I’m going to be rude to her,” Trogmire announced. “I’ll call her names and make ugly faces at her.”
