Tom is a 3 man . He lives for farm work . Peter is a town man . He 4 in a yellow shirt and an artist' s big hat .

  “What' s an artist?” Tom thinks . “An artist doesn't 5 . But I work day and night. My cows are famous . ” Tom' s farm has some cows . But he has one very famous animal: Duke, the bull.

  Sometimes a farmer asks, “Do you want to 6 your bull, Tom?”

  “Duke? No, never. Not for one hundred pounds.”

  Usually there is no answer. A hundred pounds is a lot of 7 .

  Last month, 8 stayed with Tom on the farm for a few days . Peter had a good look at his farm, his best cows and his famous bull, and he painted a picture of a bull.

  One week later, Peter talked with Tom on the telephone. “Do you remember my 9 of a bull?” Peter asked . “We looked at it in your room . ”

  “Yes, I do.” said Tom.

  “I sold it to 10 yesterday.”

  “Good, ” Tom said, “I'm 11 for you.”

  “He gave me three hundred pound.”

  “What?” asked Tom . “Three hundred pounds? For a picture?” Tom was very angry. “And perhaps I can only get 12 hundred pounds for Duke. A picture is 13 , but Duke is a living animal. A 14 doesn't make more pictures . But Duke will have hundreds of cows . That man must be 15 !”

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.
【小题1】We learn from the text that the Audet family is using cow wastes to ______.
A.make electricity B.produce fertilizerC.build their farm D.feed the cows
【小题2】How are the cow wastes collected into the digester at Blue Farm?
A.Marie Audet does the workB.The job is done by machine
C.The cows lift the cow wastesD.Bacteria get to work on them
【小题3】 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
【小题4】The new way of using cow wastes at Blue Farm might be best described as ______.
A.reducingB.savingC.recyclingD.changing
【小题5】 What is the main purpose for writing the passage?
A.To introduce a new way of making electricityB.To explain how a new energy works better
C.To show a new rebuilding plan for a big farmD.To explain the reasons for green house effect

阅读下面的短文,然后根据文中内容回答问题。
       Singapore (新加坡) is a small island with a busy city, factories and a large port (港口). Nearly
all of the food is from abroad because the island is so small and it has very few farms. Hay Dairies is
the only goat farm on the island. 
       Goats are useful animals. They are able to produce milk for us to drink. The milk can also be
used to make many things including cheese, soap and beauty creams. Their meat can be eaten and
their hair can be made into beautiful clothes. Their skin can be made into leather. In some parts of
the world, goats are kept to carry heavy loads (重物). 
      The, 1,000 goats at Hay Dairies are kept for their milk. The farm was set up by John Hay, a pig
farmer who saw that there was a growing need in Singapore for goat's milk. One in five children in
Singapore suffers (患病) from Asthma (气喘), a disease which does a lot of harm to the breathing
pathway and leads to a sudden difficulty in breathing that can cause death if not treated quickly. Many
of these children cannot drink cow's milk as this can start an asthma attack and doctors believe goat's
milk is healthy choice.
