阅读理解（共两节，满分 40 分）第一节（共 15 小题：每小题 2 分，满分 30 分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。A AWhen milk arrived on the doorstepWhen I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s,we had a milkman deliveringmilk to our doorstep.His name was Mr.Basille.He wore a white cap and drove a whitetruck.As a 5-year-old boy,I couldnt take my eyes off the coin changer fixed tohis belt.He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of hiscoin changer.Of course,he delivered more than milk.There was cheese,eggs and so on.If weneeded to change our order,my mother would pen a note-“Please add a bottle ofbuttermilk next delivery”-and place it in the box along with the empty bottles.Andthen,the buttermilk would magically appear.All of this was about more than convenience.There existed a close relationshipbetween families and their milkmen.Mr.Basille even had a key to out house,for thosetimes when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors,so that the milk wouldntfreeze.And I remember Mr.Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchentable,having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home milk delivery today.Big companies allowed the productionof cheaper milk,thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete.Besides,milk isfor sale everywhere,and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.Recently,an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhoodmemories.I took it home and planted it on the back porch（门廊）.Every so oftenmy sons friends will ask what it is.So I start telling stories of my boyhood,andof the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.56.Mr Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer_.A.to show his magical power.B.to pay for the deliveryC.to satisfy his curiosity.D.to please his mother.57.What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boyshouse?A.He wanted to have tea there.B.He was a respectable person.C.He was treated as a family member.D.He was fully trusted by the family.58.Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?A.Nobody wants to be a milkman now.B.It has been driven out of the market.C.Its service is getting poor.D.It is forbidden by law.59.Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?A.He missed the good old days.B.He wanted to tell interesting stories.C.He missed it for his milk bottles.D.He planted flowers in it.B BWhile small may be beautiful,tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems,particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.The Tall Persons Club Great Britain(TPCGB),which was formed six months ago tocampaign for the needs of the tall,has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants.Beds that are too small,showe heads that are too low,and restaurant tables withhardly any leg-room all make life difficult for those of above average height,itsays.But it is not just the extra-tall whose needs are not being met.The average nightof the population has been increasing ye the standard size of beds,doorways,andchairs has remained unchanged.“The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the personusing it,so even a king-size bed at 66(6 feet and 6 inches)is falling shortfor 25%of men,while the standard 63 bed caters for less than half of the malepopulation.”Said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy,“seven-foot beds would workfine.”Sililarly,restaurant tables can cause no end of problems.Small tables,whichmean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them,are enough to make tallcustomers go elsewhere.Some have already taken note,however.At Queens Moat HousesCaledoman Hotl inEdinburgh,66beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds fromtaller visitors,particularly Americans.60.What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign?A.To provide better services.B.To rebuild hotels and restaurants.C.To draw public attention to the needs of the tall.D.To attract more people to become its members.61.Which of the following might be a bed of proper length according to Phil Heinricy?A.72.B.7C.66D.6362.What may happen to restaurants with small tables?A.They may lose some customers.B.They may start businesses elsewhere.C.They have to find easy chairs to match the tables.D.They have to provide enough space for the long-legged.63.What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh?A.Tall people pay more for larger beds.B.66beds have taken the place of 63beds.C.Special rooms are kept for Americans.D.Guest rooms are standardized.C CCassandra Feeley finds it hard to manage on her husbands income.So this yearshe did something more than a hobby:She planted vegetables in her yard.For her fistgarden,Ms Feeleyhas put in 15 tomato plants,and five rows of a variety of vegetables.The familys old farm house has become a chicken bourse,its residentsarrivingnext month.Last year,Ms.Rita Gartin kept a small garden.This year she has madeit much larger because,she said,“The cost of everything is going up and I was lookingto lose a few pounds too;so its a win-win situation all around.”They are among the growing number of Americans who,driven by higher living costsand a falling economy(经济),have taken up vegetable gardening for the first time.Other have increased the size of their existing gardens.Seed companies and gardenshops say no since the 1970s have there been such an increase in interest in growingfood at home.Now many gardens across the country hacek been sold out for severalmonths.In Austin,Tex.,some of the gardens have a three-year waiting list.George C.Ball Jr,owner of a company,said sales of vegetable seeds and plantsare up by 40%,over last year,double the average growth of last five years.Mr.Ballargues that some of the reasons have been building for the last few years.The bigone is striking use in me cost on food like bread and milk,together with the increasesin the price of fruit and vegetables.Food prices have increase of higher oil price.People are driving less,taking fewer vacations,so there more time to garden.64.What does the word“residents”in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?A.chickensB.tomatoesC.gardensD.people65.Why is vegetable gardening becoming increasingly popular?A.More Americans are dong it for fun.B.The price of oil is lower than before.C.Theres a growing need
