Suppose, for example, that we wish to find out the height of the watertower
43、, AB, in a factory, we first of all go to where the watertower is standing and measure a distance of, say, 90 feet from it, in a straight line, marking the spot that is 90 feet from the watertower, then we take a stick, DC, and stand it in the ground at the spot we have just marked. Let us suppose t
44、hat the stick we are using is 4 feet in height. We now walk farther away from the water-tower in the same straight line as when we measured off the distance of 90 feet. We go from the watertower until we come to a point E, where with our head on the ground, with the top of the stick and the top of t
45、he water-tower in the same straight line- that is, the top of the stick just over the highest part of the water-tower. We now have two triangle(三角形) and the proportion(比例) of the side CD to the side CE, in the smaller triangle CDE, is exactly the same as the proportion of the side BA to the side BE,
46、 in the large triangle BAE. It is clear from this that every schoolboy or schoolgirl can work out the height of the watertower. Suppose that the line CE is 5 feet, we know that the stick is 4 feet high and the length of BE is 95 feet. From these measurements we have the simple proportion sum(算题): 5i
47、s to 4 as 95 is to AB. 95 multiplied by 4 makes 380, and 380 divided by 5. Then we can get the height of the watertower. The height of any other building can, of course, be easily measured by using the same way.47. The height of the watertower is _. A. 76ft B. 95ft C. 90ft D. 180ft48. The triangle C
48、DE must be _. A. below the triangle BAE B. in the triangle BAE C. out of the triangle BAE D. over the triangle BAE49. The proportion of the side CD to the side CE is _. A. bigger than the proportion of the side BA to the side BE B. equal to the proportion of the side BA to the side BE C. not as big
49、as the proportion of the side BA to the side BE D. smaller than the proportion of the side BA to the side BE50. According to the measurements, we have the simple proportion sum: _. A. BA is to four as five is to ninety-five B. BA is to ninety-five as four is to five C. Five is to ninety-five as BA i
50、s to four D. Four is to five as BA is to ninety(E)“Soon, youre going to have to move out!” cried my neighbor upon seeing the largest tomato plant known to mankind, or at least known in my neighborhood.One tiny 9-inch plant, bought for $1.25 in the spring, has already taken over much of my rose bed,
51、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 werent for the pleasure they give, it wouldnt 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
52、, 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 be even more perfect for tomatoes. Thedaily watering
53、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
54、, 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 leav
55、es 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, Ill t
56、hink about that tomorrow.51What ate the requirements for the healthy growth of rose?AA lot of care and the right soil.BFrequent pruning and fertilizing.CTomato plants grown alongside.DCages placed around the roots.52The writer planted the tomato because _.Ait cost only $1.25Bthe soil was just right
57、for itCthere was room for it in the gardenDthe roses branches needed to be covered53This year the writers roses were _.Aremoved from the rose bedBpicked along with the tomatoesCmostly damaged by too much sunlight Dlargely hidden under the tomato plant54By saying “the prize so dearly won” in paragrap
58、h 5, the writer wants to _.Ashow the difficulty in picking the tomatoesBshow the hardship of growing the rosesCexpress her liking for the rosesDexpress her care for the tomatoes55In the situation described in the text, one good thing is that _.Athe roses cost the writer little moneyBthe writer has a
59、 daily harvest of tomatoesCsomeone will help the writer make the decisionDthe writer can now enjoy both the roses and tomatoesIV. Proof Reading: (1*10)I lived in a small town in the south.
