    “Soon, you’re going to have to move out!” cried my neighbor upon seeing the largest tomato plant known to mankind, or at least known i: exactly; tab-stops: 105.0pt 189.0pt 273.0pn my neighborhood.
       One tiny 9-inch plant, bought for $1. 25 in the spring, has already taken over much of my rose bed, covering much of other plants, and is well on its way to the front door.
       Roses require a good deal of care, and if it weren’t for the pleasure they give, it wouldn’t be worth the work. As it is, I have a garden full of sweet-smelling roses for most of the year. bushes must be pruned(剪枝) in early spring, leaving ugly woody branches until the new growth appears a few weeks later. It was the space available(可用的) in the garden that led me into planting just one little tomato plant. A big mistake.
       Soil conditions made just perfect for roses turn out to be even more perfect for tomatoes. The daily watering coupled with full sun and regular fertilizing(施肥) have turned the little plant into a tall bush. The cage I placed around it as the plant grew has long since disappeared under the thick leaves.
       Now the task I face in harvesting the fruit is twofold; First, I have to find the red ones among the leaves, which means I almost have to stand on my head, and once found I have to reach down and under, pick the tomatoes and withdraw(缩回) my full fist without dropping the prize so dearly won. I found two full-blown white roses completely hidden as I picked tomatoes in June, but they were weak and the leaves already yellow for lack of light.
       Here I am faced with a painful small decision: To tear up a wonderful and productive tomato plant that offers up between ten and twenty ripe sweet tomatoes each day or say goodbye to several expensive and treasured roses. Like Scarlett in Gone With the Wind, I’ll think about th painful at tomorrow.
    71. What ate the requirements for the healthy growth of roses?
       A. A lot of care and the right soil.
       B. Frequent pruning and fertilizing.
       C. Tomato plants grown alongside.
       D. Cages placed around the roots.
    72. The writer planted the tomato because ______.
       A. it cost only $1. 25
       B. the soil was just right for it
       C. there was room for it in the garden
       D. the roses’ branches needed to be covered
    73. This year the writer’s roses were ______.
       A. removed from the rose bed
       B. picked along with the tomatoes
       C. mostly damaged by too much sunlight
       D. largely hidden under the tomato plant
    74. By saying “the prize so dearly won” in paragraph 5, the writer wants to ______.
       A. show the difficulty in picking the tomatoes
       B. show the hardship of growing the roses
       C. express her liking for the roses
       D. express her care for the tomatoes
    75. In the situation described in the text, one good thing is that ______.
       A. the roses cost the writer little money
       B. the writer has a daily harvest of tomatoes
       C. someone will help the writer make the decision
       D. the writer can now enjoy both the roses and tomatoes

     (05·全国ⅡA篇)

    Every year on my birthday, from the time I turned 12, a white gardenia was delivered to my house. No card came with it Calls to the flower-shop were not helpful at all. After a while I stopped trying to discover the sender’s name and just delighted in the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper.

    But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged these imaginings. She’d ask me if there was someone for whom I had done special kindness. Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail I’d delivered during the winter. As a girl, though, I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy I had run into.

    One month before my graduation, my father died. I felt so sad that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation dance, and I didn’t care if I had a new dress or not. But my mother, in her own sadness, would not let me miss any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved and lovable. In truth, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gar-denia-lovely, strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery(神秘)

    My mother died ten days after I was married. I was 22. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming.

    41． Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

           A．A childhood Dream.

    B．A Mother’s Love.

           C．A Graduation Party.

    D．A Special Birthday.

    42．The mother insisted that her daughter go to the graduation dance because _________.

           A．she could take care of things herself

    B．she hoped she would find a boyfriend

           C．she wanted her to be happy and strong

    D．she thought education was most important

    43．Who was the sender of the flower?

           A．A boy the writer had run into.

    B．One of the writer’s neighbors.

           C．One of the writer’s classmates.            

    D．The writer’s mother.

     (05·全国ⅡC篇)

    Taiwan police cannot decide whether to treat it as an extremely eleven act of stealing or an even elev-ecer cheat (诈骗). Either way , it could be the perfect crime (犯罪), because the criminals are birds—horning pigeons !

    The crime begins with a telephone message to the owner of a stolen car : if you want the car back, pay up then, the car owner is directed to a park, told where to find a bird cage and how to attach money to the neck of the pigeon inside . Carrying the money in a tiny bag , the pigeon flies off .

    There have been at least four such pigeon pick-ups in Changwa. What at first seemed like the work of a clever stay-at-home car thief, however , may in fact be the work of an even lazier and more inventive criminal mind—one that avoid (避免)not only collecting money but going out to steal the car in the first place . Police officer Chen says that the criminal probably has pulled a double trick: he gets money for things he cannot possibly return . Instead of stealing cars , he lets someone else do it and then waits for the car-owner to place an ad (启事) in the newspaper asking for help .

    The theory is supported by the fact that , so far , none of the stolen cars have been returned . Also, the amount of money demanded-under 3,000 Taiwanese dollars –seems too little for a car worth many times more .

    Demands for pigeon-delivered money stopped as soon as the press reported the story. And even if they start again, Chen holds little hope of catching the criminal . “We have more important things to do, ” he said .

    49．After the car owner received a phone call. He         

           A．went to a certain pigeon and put some money in the bag it carried

           B．gave the money to the thief and had his car back in a park

           C．sent some money to the thief by mail

           D．told the press about it

    50．The “lazier and more inventive” criminal refers to          .

           A．the car thief who stays at home

    B．one of those who put the ads in the paper

           C．one of the policemen in Changwa

    D．the owner of the pigeons

    51．The writer mentions the fact that “none of the stolen cars have been returned” to show       .

           A．how easily people get fooled by criminals

           B．what Chen thinks might be correct

           C．the thief is extremely clever

           D．the money paid is too little

    52．The underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refers to          .

           A．criminals

    B．pigeons

    C．the stolen cars

    D．demands for money

    53．We may infer from the text that the criminal knows how to reach the car owners because     .

           A．he reads the ads in the newspaper

    B．he lives in the same neighborhood

           C．he has seen the car owners in the park

    D．he has trained the pigeons to follow them
