六、阅读理解
A
When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. One of my father’
s friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.
Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and
I would go to Bernie’s place. We’d sit on the edge of the dock(码头), feet dangling
(摇晃), and got ready for a big meal.
Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece
and sit down next to us. Then we’d bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the
heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part—and throw
away the rest.
Bernie was my father’s idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because
he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie’
s wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew
how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the
watermelon.
What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us,
no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart
of the watermelon. If you don’t take the time to dangle your feet over the dock
and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life.
For many years, I forgot that lesson I’d learned as a kid on the loading dock.
I was too busy making all the money I could.
Well, I’ve relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others
and to take pleasure in the day. That’s the heart of the watermelon. I have learned
again to throw the rest away.
46. We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling
______.
A. relaxed
B. worried
C. hungry
D. proud
47. How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon?
A. They ate it in a polite way.
B. They only ate its best part.
C. They ate every part of it.
D. They shared only one piece.
48. In the eyes of the writer’s father, Bernie ______.
A. was just a rich businessman
B. worked hard all the time
C. lived a rich but healthy life
D. knew how to make money
49. The underlined part “the heart of the watermelon” in the last paragraph refers
to ______.
A. the best part of the watermelon
B. the writer’s busy life
C. the writer’s decision of making money
D. the writer’s hope of enjoying
life
50. It can be learned from the passage that ______.
A. one has to work hard to reach his goal
B. a friend in need is a friend
in deed

B
When the Audet family turns on the lights at Blue Farm, they are using
electricity that comes from cows—cow manure (粪肥), to be specific.
Cows produce a lot of wastes. One cow can create 30 gallons of wastes each day.
Now imagine the output of over 1,000 cows at Blue Farm. That’s really a big amount.
When farmers clean their barns, they put the wastes in a big heap, and spread
some of them on their fields for fertilizer(肥料). But now places like Blue Spruce
Farm have a new way of using cow wastes. They use them to produce electricity.
Here’s how it works: A big machine moves back and forth cleaning the barn floor.
“The cows aren’t bothered,” says Marie Audet. “They are animals of habit; they
get used to it, and just lift one foot and then another to let it go by.”
The machine pushes the manure into a big 600-gallon tank like a small swimming
pool. The tank is called a digester (化粪池) because what happens there is just
like what happens inside a cow: Bacteria(细菌) get to work and continue to digest
the manure.
Methane gas (甲烷、沼气)in the atmosphere is known as a“greenhouse”gas because
it keeps heat just like a greenhouse does, causing our planet to warm up. That’
s an environmental concern. But the digester has a good result. Its gas is kept
and used to power electric generators (发电机).
At Blue Farm, the generators make enough electricity to power 400 homes. The
Audet family sells the extra electricity they can’t use themselves.
51. We learn from the text that the Audet family is using cow wastes to ______.
A. make electricity
B. produce fertilizer
C. build their farm
D. feed the cows
52. How are the cow wastes collected into the digester at Blue Farm?
A. Marie Audet does the work
B. The job is done by
machine
C. The cows lift the cow wastes
D. Bacteria get to
work on them
53. According to the passage, which of the following is changed into electricity?
A. The power of moving water.
B. The heat of burning
coal.
C. The power of sunlight.
D. The heat of the methane
gas
