Rice is a big part of Chinese life. In the past, people greeted each other by saying "Have you had your rice?" Some people still say it today.
China is the world's largest rice-growing country. In 2003, China grew 166 million tons of rice.
But it is not easy to feed the world's largest population. In the 1960s, thousands of Chinese died because they had no food to eat.
In the 1970s, a Chinese scientist, Yuan Longping, grew a new kind of rice called hybrid rice(杂交稻). It makes 20 percent more rice than other types of rice. Hybrid rice is much stronger than common(普通的) rice. It can grow in lots of water or in not much water. It also doesn't easily get diseases or worms(虫子).
Yuan is known as the "father of hybrid rice." At the end of last month, he won the World Food Prize for his work to help feed so many people.
Today, half of China's rice plants are Yuan's special hybrid. China uses Yuan's hybrid to grow much more rice than before.
56. In the past, Chinese people greeted each other by saying "____”.

It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.
Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not

be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics(数学) need not be taught in detail, either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.
Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise(智慧的) man and thankfully enjoy the achievements (成就)of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to(被期待)be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.
I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.

A. spend a long time in school B. have a good chance to get a job
C. spend the best years to choose jobs D. have fewer chances to get a good job

63.The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “ “in Chinese.
A. 圆满的 B. 崭新的 C.公平的 D. 全面的
64. It is expected that educated people will be able to .

C. develop their abilities to make plays D. learn subjects like language and math

C. people should be able to get good paying jobs
D. all subjects are so important for a way of living

Do you live in a city? Do you know how cities began? Long long ago, the world had only a few thousand people. These people moved from one place to another. They moved over the land, hunting animals for food.
No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food. But when they did, their life changed. They did not have to look for food any longer. They could stay in one place and grow it.
People began to live near one another, so the first village was established (建立). Many people came to live in the villages, and these villages became even larger.
When machines appeared, life in the villages changed again. People built factories. More and more people lived near the factories. The cities began.
Today, it’s strange that some people are moving back to small villages. Can you tell me why?
