In Some parts of the United States, farming is easy. But farming has always been difficult in the northeastern corner of the country, which is called New England.
New England has many trees and thin, rocky soil. Anyone who has wanted to start a new farm has had to work very hard. The first job has been cutting down trees. The next job has been digging the stumps(树桩) of the trees out of the soil. Then the farmer has had the difficult job of removing stones from his land.
This work of removing stones never really ends, because every winter more stones appear. They come up through the thin soil from the rocks below. Farmers have to keep removing stones from the fields. Even today, farms which have been worked on for 200 years keep producing more stones.
That is why stone walls are used instead of fences around New England fields. The stone walls are not high; a man can easily climb over them. But they keep the farmer’s cows from joining his neighbour’s cows.
( ) 66. The passage compares farming ___.
A. in England and in New England
B. in different parts of the U.S.
C. in England and in the U.S.

a new farm?

( ) 68. What is the greatest difficulty New England farmers have in their farming?
A. The soil is hard as rock B. There are too many stones
C. Plants hardly grow D. The soil is sterile(贫瘠)
( ) 69. New England farmers build stone walls around their fields____.
A. to save the trouble of taking away stones
B. to keep their neighbour from trespassing(私自进入).
C. because stone walls are stronger than fences
D. because stone walls are easier to build
( ) 70. From the passage alone, you know for sure at least one thing New England farmers produce on their farms. What is this?
A. Stones B. Grain C. Diary products(奶产品)
D. Trees and timber(木材)

“We’re more than halfway now; it’s only two miles farther to the hotel,” said the driver.
“I’m glad of that!” answered the stranger. He wanted to say more but the east wind blew right down his throat if he tried to speak. The driver’s voice was something quite pleasing, and at once he spoke again.
“You don’t feel the cold so much at twenty below zero out in the Western Country. There’s none of this coldness,” he said, adding, “and wetness.”
“You’ll have a cold drive going back,” he said anxiously, and put up his hand for the twentieth time to see if his coat collar(衣领) was as close to the back of his neck as possible. He had wished a dozen times that he were in his warm old hunter’s clothes which he had often worn in the worst of weather in the Northwest.

第三节：英汉翻译（共计10分）
请把下面一段英文翻译成汉语
Christmas is the biggest festival of the year in most western countries. Besides all the presents, food,drinks, and decorations that people buy for Christmas, there is always a Christmas tree. About a week before Christmas, people decortate the Christmas tree with lights, coloured paper and an angel on the top. Family presents are usually put under the tree.
People will spend much less to buy and drive the little cars. Driving will be safer,too, as these little cars can go only 65 kilometers per hour. Cars of the future will be fine for getting around a city,but they will not be useful for long trips. If big car are still used along with the small ones,two sets of roads will be needed in the future. Some roads will be used by big and fast cars. Other roads will be used by the small and slow cars.
