阅读下列短文, 从56-75小题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
Matt grows the best vegetables in the village. He grows fruit too—big, sweet apples and oranges. And what else? Well, the biggest and the prettiest flowers.
Things grow in Matt's garden all through the year. He cuts some flowers for his sitting room table; and of course, he eats some fruit and vegetables. But he sells everything else in the market. Matt is not a poor man.
He knows a few other gardens; but he does not have any friends. You might ask,“ What is that? Why doesn't he have friends?”
I will tell you. People do not understand him. And they do not understand his garden. “Why not?” you will ask. “It's a very good garden, isn't it?”
It is a wonderful garden. Matt plants things in spring, summer, autumn and winter. After that he does very little work. He sits in the garden with his small radio. And everything grows.
People ask, “How does Matt grow these wonderful things? He waters the plants sometimes, but he doesn't do anything else. He just sits under an orange tree with his radio. He listens to music nearly all day!” And that is all quite true. People cannot understand it, and so they don't like it very much.
Matt likes music. But what about the garden? Who does the work? I will tell you another true thing: the music does the work. All plants love music; and Matt knows that.
Do you want big vegetables and the loveliest flowers? Well, just give your plants a lot of music.
56. There are not only vegetables and flowers, but also_____ in Matt's garden.
A. plants       B. fruit trees          C. ants       D. crops
57. Matt makes a living by_____.
A. selling his vegetables, fruit and flowers        B. growing trees in his garden

58. Everything in Matt's garden grows well because_____.

After her parents divorced, Audrey went to London with her mother where she went to a private girl school. Later, when her mother moved back to the Holland, she attended private schools as well.

We’ve used the wind as an energy source for a long time. The Babylonians and Chinese were using wind power to pump water for irrigating crops 4,000 years ago, and sailing boats were around long before that. Wind power was used in the Middle Ages, in Europe, to grind(磨碎) corn, which is where the term “windmill” comes from.
We can use the energy in the wind by building a tall tower, with a large propellor（螺旋桨） on the top. The wind blows the propellor round, which turns a generator to produce electricity. We tend to build many of these towers together, to make a “wind farm” and produce more electricity. The more towers, the more wind, and the larger the propellors, the more electricity we can make. It's only worth building wind farms in places that have strong, steady winds, although boats and caravans（大篷车）increasingly have small wind generators to help keep their batteries charged.
The best places for wind farms are in coastal areas, at the tops of rounded hills, open plains and gaps in mountains — places where the wind is strong and reliable. Some are offshore. To be worthwhile, you need an average wind speed of around 25 km/h. Most wind farms in the UK are in Cornwall or Wales. Isolated places such as farms may have their own wind generators. In California, several “wind farms” supply electricity to homes around Los Angeles.
The propellors are large, to obtain energy from the largest possible volume of air. The blades can be angled to cope with varying wind speeds. Some designs use vertical turbines (垂直涡轮机), which don’t need to be turned to face the wind. The towers are tall, to get the propellors as high as possible, up to where the wind is stronger. This means that the land beneath can still be used for farming.
66. The first paragraph aims to introduce to us _______.
A. the function of wind power                    B. the source of wind power
C. the nations using wind power                    D. the history of using wind power
67. The best places for building the wind farm are places where _______.
A. boats and caravans can often be seen             B. isolated farms don’t have enough electricity
C. there are less human activities                 D. the wind is strong and reliable
68. We can infer from the passage that _______.
A. wind farms will not take up too much farming land
B. wind farms need no fuel because wind is free
C. the blades can be angled to turn to face the wind wherever it comes from
D. the higher and larger the towers are, the stronger the wind is
69. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. Where to build a wind farm.                   B. ABC of the using of wind energy.
C. How to make best use of wind.                  D. Wind energy is the best energy.
70.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means______________________.
A.The blades can increase wind speeds
B.The blades can decrease the wind speeds
C.The speed of blades can be changed.
D.The blades can be adjusted to face different wind speeds
