A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived. When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making. After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria (细菌)? Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals? With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine. The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge (污泥). First, he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other. Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals. He placed them in the tanks and waited. Little by little, these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem. After a few weeks, John added the sludge. He was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water. Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs. He developed a greenhouse — like facility that treated sewage (污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington. He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou, a city in southeast China. “Ecological design” is the name John gives to what he does. “Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor,” he says. “You put organisms in new relationships and observe what’s happening. Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair.” 61. What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs? A. He was fond of traveling. B. He enjoyed being alone. C. He had an inquiring mind. D. He longed to be a doctor. 62. Why did John put the sludge into the tanks? A. To feed the animals. B. To build an ecosystem. C. To protect the plants. D. To test the eco-machine. 63. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Fuzhou? A. To review John’s research plans. B. To show an application of John’s idea. C. To compare John’s different jobs. D. To erase doubts about John’s invention. 64. What is the basis for John’s work? A. Nature can repair itself. B. Organisms need water to survive. C. Life on Earth is diverse. D. Most tiny creatures live in groups. 65. Which words can best describe John Todd? A. Brave and modest B. Curious and practical C. Careful and strict D. Humorous and hard-working C Parenthood is often described as life’s greatest gift — a journey of deep love and connection. Children are the light of your life, the ones who make everything worthwhile. But, like any long-term relationship, it has its challenging moments. Years ago, I wrote a column suggesting that what most mothers really want for Mother’s Day isn’t flowers or breakfast in bed — it’s an apology. A heartfelt acknowledgement of all the moments their children tested their patience. Picture this: “March 2004, losing my temper on a ferry — I’m sorry. April 2004, screaming because you broke my chess — I’m sorry. April 2004 again, screaming because the replacement cheese was also ‘wrong’ — I’m sorry. ”Parents, of course, could admit their own mistakes, like accidentally ruining childhood myths about Snow White. It would be a way for everyone to start fresh as they entered adulthood. While I never got those apologies, a recent experience brought me close to that feeling. Both my daughters have recently moved out and started their own independent lives. Watching them face the realities of adulthood has been unexpectedly satisfying. Every time they’re surprised by how difficult life can be, it feels like proof that my years of parenting paid off. In a darkly humorous way, it’s almost like the perfect parent would leave their kids so unprepared that they wouldn’t last a day. Thankfully, I didn’t aim for that kind of perfection — both my daughters are doing well, despite some struggles along the way. Still, their comments about adult life are little victories for me. One daughter admitted she now understands why I insisted on carpets instead of concrete floors. She even sees the value of things she once laughed at, like curtains and electric blankets. Another revelation came when she discovered how expensive basic items like washing powder are. “Why is something so boring so costly? ”she asked, shocked. It’s not just the financial surprises. They’ve also come to appreciate the small comforts of home One daughter admitted it’s nice to wake up to someone cooking breakfast. She used to wish I’d leave her alone for a weekend, but now she sees the warmth of having someone there. I’m still waiting for the ultimate acknowledgement — when they become parents themselves and finally understand my efforts — but for now, these small realizations feel like a sweet reward. 66. According to the author, what do most mothers truly want for Mother’s Day? A. Flowers and breakfast in bed. B. A genuine expression of regret from their children. C. A chance to reflect on their parenting achievements. D. A discussion about childhood myths like Snow White. 67. What does the author find satisfying about her daughters moving out? A. Their newfound freedom. B. Their financial independence. C. Finding them unwilling to leave home. D. Seeing them handle the struggles of adult life. 68. What does the phrase “that kind of perfection” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Bringing up kids ready to face adult challenges. B. Being able to gain understanding from grown-up kids. C. Raising kids without ability to live independently. D. Providing children with comfortable household supplies. 69. What realization did one of the author’s daughters have about household items? A. Concrete floors are better than carpets. B. Washing powder is surprisingly expensive. C. Electric blankets are unnecessary luxuries. D. Curtains are outdated interior design elements. 70. Why does the author believe her daughters’ small realizations are rewarding? A. They justify her parenting choices. B. They make her feel less alone. C. They highlight her daughters’ maturity. D. They remind her of the warmth of family life. V．阅读表达（共5个小题，每题2分，共10分） When I slowly opened the front door, my sister ran after our brother, screaming for her doll back. “I have five siblings (brothers and sisters), ”I said to my new neighbor, Michelle, a girl of my age. I led her to my bedroom. It was not big but I had to share it with my two sisters. When it was time for dinner, Michelle went back to her house with reluctance (不情愿). She called me the next day, and I happily accepted her invitation to go to her house. Soon, I was standing at her front door, ringing the bell. A woman answered. “Hello, ” she said. “Michelle is upstairs. ” I thought that she couldn’t be her mother. Michelle’s bedroom was more like a princess’s, complete with a king-size bed and a lot of toys I had never seen. How I wished I had such a room of my own! When I asked her about the woman downstairs, Michelle explained to me that she was her nanny (保姆), Marion. Then we played together and had a wonderful time. I went over to Michelle’s almost every day that summer. I loved being in her clean room. There were no chores, no siblings annoying us, and no parents constantly nagging (唠叨) us. But Michelle told me that her own parents were rarely at home, and her nanny rarely talked to her. One day, we spent all afternoon playing a video game and forgot the time. My mom called and asked me to have dinner. I looked over at Michelle, rolling my eyes as I begged my mom to let me miss dinner. But that was not a battle I was going to win. “Fine, Mom, I’ll be home in five minutes, ” I said. Suddenly, an idea popped into my mind. “Wait, Mom!” I said. “Can Michelle have dinner with us tonight? ” There was no extra chair, so we had to share one chair. But Michelle didn’t mind. Her eyes shined as she looked around at our table, talking excitedly with my sisters. When our meal was finished, she turned to me and whispered, “You’re so lucky to have such a big family.” I looked over at my siblings; they were jumping up and down. My parents were making coffee. Suddenly, my house — my crowded, messy, loud house — seemed like a paradise. 71. Why did Michelle call the author the next day? (no more than 8 words) 72. How did the author feel after she went into Michelle’s bedroom? (no more than 5 words) 73. What was Michelle’s home like? (no more than 10 words) 74. What does the underlined phrase in Paragraph 6 mean? (no more than 2 words) 75. What do you think of the author’s family? And why?
