It was an eccentric farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite ne
24、rvous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had a very bad accident. I hadnt the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go. It had been snowing heavily that day and I didnt know the way. I had
25、been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died. “She meant more to me than anyone even my own wife!“ he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal. I wa
26、s even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn. “I would not leave her out in the cold !“ he said. Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark fig
27、ure on the ground. “She was such a good cow! I wouldnt let anyone but a doctor touch her!“ he said, and burst into tears again. 54 The underlined phrase “make out“ in the first paragraph means _. ( A) expect ( B) understand ( C) see clearly ( D) hear clearly 55 What do we know about Milly from the s

Go to any of the other Hawaiian Islands Maui, Lanai, the Big Island but leave Kauai for us. The weather on Kauai is so unpredictable (不可预测的 ) that sometimes it rains a
30、ll day in fact, its the second-wettest spot on the earth. Yes, there are giant double rainbows all the time, and the sunlight through the clouds is magical. But if you are not interested in these, go somewhere else. You just cant control the nature on Kauai, and who wants to surrender (屈服 ) to the n
31、ature when you could be at a fine hotel, lying in a comfortable chair next to a swimming pool, with food served upon request? So what if Kauai produces surf champions the way Texas produces cowboys? Most of its 300 white-sand beaches are unmarked. Unless you connect with the local people, the hidden
32、 spots are hard to find. While Hanalei is the most beautiful town youve ever dreamed of, you can forget about discos and clubs. Worse, it doesnt have one single four-star restaurant. What it does have is the original drive-through places where you pass by a rambutan tree (红毛丹树 ), and pick a piece of
33、 fruit. Shopping in Kanai? Forget it unless you are interested in shell necklaces and beautifully carved wood bowls. Kauai is not about pampering. Its about going natural and finding the nature within you. If a do-it-yourself place that offers walking along the coast, diving and swimming in the Paci
34、fic Ocean, and lying on the beach. Dont go to Kauai unless you have a lot of time, because theres only one road, which can be slightly dull. It winds through the beautiful scenery of waterfalls, rivers flowing into the ocean, and taro (芋头 ) fields. You have no choice but to look at everything, becau
35、se the speed limit is 35 m.p.h. If youre not interested in color, dont bother with Kauai, because thats what you get fed roads, blue oceans, and a hundred different shades of green. Its like diving on land. Many people on Kanai believe that this is Lemuria a lost island in the Atlantic. Can you imag
36、ine? Those Hawaiians, suffers, New Agers, and people who love nature and beauty and want a different quality of life what do they know, anyway? Forget about it youre not going to like it. Go somewhere else. Leave Kanai for us. 58 After reading the text, we come to know that it is _. ( A) a piece of
