　　In 1931, it was discovered that some unknown substance present only in certain foods was necessary for good health. This substance was what is now called “Vitamin A”.

　　Vitamin A's biggest job is to keep the eyes going. Without it, people and animals get “night blindness” and eye problems. Lack of Vitamin A for a long time can even cause total blindness, particularly among children. This had a chance to be tested in Denmark during World Was I. Because of food shortage, many children had to eat man-made butter and skim milk（脫脂奶）, which contains no Vitamin A. Soon, they developed eye diseases. It was after they were given real butter and whole milk that they had no eye problems.

　　After Vitamin A was discovered, it took more than thirty years of experiments for scientists to be able to get a small amount of pure Vitamin A. Vitamin A is manufactured and is used successfully to treat a number of diseases. You can easily get enough Vitamin A by eating a variety of food. Good sources of Vitamin A are liver（肝臟） from some animals and dairy products such as milk and cream. Not only many vegetables contain carotene（胡蘿卜素）, from which your liver can make its own Vitamin A, some fruits also provide carotene which helps your liver to supply Vitamin A. As long as you are getting Vitamin A from food you won't need to take any extra in the form of liquid or pills.

(1)According to the passage, if Vitamin A is not provided enough, which of the following are likely to be affected most se riously?

[　　]

A．Adults.
B．Animals
C．Children.
D．Plants.

(2) Vitamin A is a very. important substance mainly because it _______.

[　　]

A．is hard to made

B．helps to keep one's eyes healthy

C．can make butter more delicious

D．can not be produced in large quantity

(3) What made the children in Denmark get eye diseases during World War I?

[　　]

A．The war they experienced.

B．Their poor housing conditions.

C．The experiments on food.

D．The lack of Vitamin A in their food.

(4) According to the text, the following are all good sources of Vitamin A except _______.

[　　]

A．a(chǎn)nimal liver
B．flour
C．vegetables
D．milk

(5) Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?

[　　]

A．The Discovery of Vitamin A.
B．Some Unknown Substance.
C．Sources for Vitamin A.
D．Vitamin A.

I made a pledge (發(fā)誓) to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving .  No ifs, ands or buts.
The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting (引用) a Biblical (圣經(jīng)的) passage about husbands being thoughtful（體貼的） of their wives. Then he went on to say," Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love." To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well , for  two weeks that would change.
And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said," That new yellow sweater looks great on you."
"Oh, Tom, you noticed," she said, surprised and pleased, maybe a little puzzled.
After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I thought, "Evelyn's been alone here with the kids all the week and now she wants to stay with me. " We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.
So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that's how the whole vacation passed, I made a new pledge to keep on remembering to choose love. There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. Last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.
“What’s the matter?” I asked her.
“ Tom ,” se said in a voice filled with distress, “ do you know something I don’t?”
"What do you mean?"
"Well...that checkup(體檢) I had several weeks ago...our doctor...did he tell you something about me? Tom , you've been so good to me... am I dying?"
It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I burst out laughing.
"No, honey," I said, wrapping her in my arms. "You're not dying; I'm just staring to live."
71.  In the first paragraph, "No ifs, ands or buts" probably means___.
A. unnecessarily     B. unexpectedly    C.   impossibly    D. unconditionally
72. From the story we may infer that Tom went to the beach cottage___.
A. with his family    B. with Evelyn     C. alone           D. with his children
73. During the two weeks on the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife because___.
A. she looked lovely in her new clothes
B. he had made a lot of money in Wall Street
C. he was determined to be a good husband
D. she was seriously ill
74.  The underlined words "one thing" in the passage refer to the fact that___.
A. he praised her sweater, which puzzled her
B. she insisted on visiting a museum, which he hated
C. he knew something about her illness but didn't tell her
D. he was so good to her that she thought she must be dying
75.  By saying "I'm just starting to live", Tom means that___.
A. he is just beginning to understand the real meaning of life
B. he is just beginning to enjoy his life as a loving husband
C. he lived an unhappy life before and is now starting to change
