       As people slowly learn to cure diseases, control floods, prevent hunger, and stop wars, fewer people die every year. As a result, the population of the world is becoming larger. In 1925 there were about 2 billion people in the world; today there are over 6 billion.

    When the number rises, extra mouths must be fed. New lands must be brought under development, or land already farmed must be made to produce more crops. In some areas the land is so over-developed that it will be difficult to make it provide more crops. In some areas the population is so large that the land is divided into too tiny units to make improvement possible with farming methods. If a large part of this farming population went into industrial work, the land might be farmed much more productively (多產(chǎn)地) with modern methods.

    There is now a race for science, technology, and industry to keep the output of food rising faster than the number of people to be fed. New types of crops, which will grow well in bad weather, are being developed, so there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle in Siberia and North America. Irrigation (灌溉) and dry-farming methods bring poor lands under the plough. Dams hold back the waters of great rivers, which can provide water for the fields in all seasons and provide electric power for new industries. Industrial chemistry provides fertilizer to suit different soils. Every year, some new methods are made to increase or to protect the food of the world.

1. The author says that the world population is increasing because _____.

 A. there are many rich valleys and large fields

 B. farmers are producing more crops than before

 C. people are living longer due to better living conditions

 D. new lands are being made into farmlands

2. The author says that in areas with large populations, land might be more productively farmed if _____.

 A. the land was divided into smaller pieces

 B. people moved into the countryside

 C. industrial methods were used in farming

 D. the units of land were much larger

3. We are told that there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle. This has been made possible by _____.

 A. growing new types of crops

 B. irrigation and dry-farming means

 C. providing fertilizers 

 D. destroying pests and diseases

4. Why is the land divided into tiny units in some areas?

 A. There are too many people living there.

 B. It saves more natural resources there. 

 C. It prevents crops from serious diseases there.

 D. Farmers can grow various kinds of crops there.

5. Why do some people use dams to hold back waters from great rivers?

 A. To develop a new kind of dry-farming methods.       

 B. To prevent crops from floods.

 C. To provide water and electricity in all seasons.

Machines in the home have a short history. Sewing machines, washing machines and tumble dries are common enough today, but a hundred years ago few people could even imagine such things. However, inventors have designed and built a wide range of household machines since then. In most cases the inventor tried to patent(申請專利)his machine, to stop anyone copying it. Then he tried to produce a lot of them. If the machine became popular, the inventor could make a lot of money.

    In 1790 the first sewing machine was patented. The inventor was an Englishman called Thomas Saint. There was nothing to match his machine for forty years, and then someone built a similar device. He was a Frenchman, Bartelemy Thimonier. However, neither of these early machines worked very well. It wasn’t until 1846 that an inventor came up with a really efficient sewing machine. He was an American, Elias Howe and his machine was good enough to beat five skilled sewing women. He didn’t make much money from it, however. The first commercially successful sewing machine was patented by Isaac Singer five years later.

   Today, we take washing machines for granted, but there was none before 1869. The revolving drum(旋轉桶)of that first machine set a pattern for the future, but it was crude by today’s standards. The drum was turned by hand, and needed a lot of effort. Eight years passed before someone produced an electric washing machine. The world had to wait even longer for a machine to dry clothes. The first spin-drier was another American invention, patented in 1924; but it was 20 years before such machines were widely used.

    It was yet another American, called Bissell, who introduced the carpet sweeper. He patented the original machine back in 1876. It didn’t pick up dirt very well, but it was quicker than a dustpan and brush. Thirty-six years later, even the carpet sweeper was old-fashioned: modern homes now have a vacuum cleaner(吸塵器)with an electric motor to suck the dust.

    72. Whose sewing machine could do as much as,or even more than the work of five skilled sewing women?

       A. Thomas Saint’s.                 B. Bartelemy Thimonier’s.

      C. Elias Howe’s.                   D. Isaac Singer’s.  

73. According to the article, modern inventors __________ .

      A. follow the pattern of the first revolving drum but improve it much

      B. only imitate (模仿)the first washing machine

      C. power the first ever-made washing machine by electricity

      D. have to wait for the first spin-drier for a long time

   74. The underlined word “crude” in the sentence “but it was crude by today’s standards” probably means __________ .  

      A. useless       B. ugly-looking     C. rough       D. not skillfully made

   75. The article mainly tells us about __________ .

      A. the great inventors in the world

      B. the important inventions in the world

      C. the short history of household machines

      D. the importance of the machines used in the home
