But long ago people didn't eat potatoes. They did not even give them to their pigs. They believed that the roots(根） which grew underground were bad for people's health.‎ The Indians of South America planted potatoes and ate them for the first time. Wheat did not grow well there, but potatoes did. Spanish people brought the first potatoes to Europe from South America in about 1565. But to most people in Europe potatoes did not look beautiful. They were not interested in them. But after about two hundred years some people in the French government discovered that potatoes were a kind of good food.‎ They went to King Louis XVI and said,"If you plant potatoes, you will have much more food, and the number of hungry people will be smaller."‎ The king was very pleased. He told his nobles(贵族）to plant potatoes. The nobles planted them, but they didn't eat them. The government even tried to give people potato plants, but no one wanted them. At last the government had a good idea!‎ The government planted a lot of potatoes, and when the potatoes became big enough, they built a large fence(篱色）.Then the government said that the people must not touch the potatoes. During the day guards watched over the potato field, so people didn't even come near the fence. But at night all the guards went home.‎ Time passed and people began to say to each other, "Why do a lot of guards watch over this plant so carefully? It must be a very important plant. Let's try to get some when it gets dark. " As soon as night came, some people went across the fence. Quickly they pulled up a few potatoes and ran away with them. They listened and looked carefully but they didn't hear or see any guards. So they knew that there were no guards at night. After that lots of people came at night to take away the potatoes.‎ Finally there were no potatoes in the field.‎ The king and his government were very happy because they thought that people would now have enough food. They were right. More and more people began to eat potatoes, and they knew they were good and not expensive. The news spread(传播) fast.‎ The news spread from France to other countries. For example, potatoes grew so well in Ireland that they became an important food there. But in the 19th century the potatoes did not grow well there. Thousands of people died because they were too hungry, so a lot of people in Ireland went to North America.‎ Today the potato is one of the most common and popular foods in the world ！‎ ‎46. The people who first tried potatoes were .‎ A. Spanish people B. a lot of people in Ireland C. the South American Indians D. some people in the French government ‎47. The French government tried .‎ A. to know why people didn't want to eat potatoes B. to give people potato plants to have much more food C. to give the king potato plants, and the king was pleased D. to give potato plants to hungry people, but they didn't try them ‎48. Guards watched over the potato field during the day, because .‎ A. they didn't want people to try to get potatoes B. they thought people would not come near the fence C. they thought people would be interested in potatoes and take them away at night D. they wanted to catch people when they tried to pull up potatoes and run away with them ‎49. French people began to eat potatoes .‎ A. in the 16th century B. in the 17th century C. in the 18th century D. in the 19th century ‎50. Potatoes became important food in Ireland .‎ A. because they grew very well there B. and the news spread to other countries C. and the people there knew they were good and not expensive D. because people did not get enough wheat in the middle of the 19th century D Wearing in Britain and the US These days, most people in Britain and the US do not wear very formally. But sometimes it is important to wear the right thing.‎ Many British people don't think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres, cinemas, and concerts you can put on what you like from beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy.‎ But in Britain, as well as in the US, men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and women wear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors, lawyers and business people wear formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and wear tidy clothes.‎ In many ways, Americans are less formal than British people, but they are careful with their clothes. At home,or on holiday, most Americans wear informal or sporty clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. In good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes.‎ It is difficult to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the US, because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then do the same. You will feel more comfortable if you don't look too different from everyone else.‎ 根据上文判断正（T)误(F)‎ ‎51. People in Britain and the US wear informal clothes when they go out to enjoy themselves.‎ ‎52. At a concert people wear whatever they like.‎ ‎53. According to the passage, it is true that women are usually allowed to wear trousers in offices.‎ ‎54. "Anything goes" in the second paragraph means "any clothes are acceptable."‎ ‎55.
