For them, the forbidden fruit from Eden is evil（邪恶的）.So when Colu brought the tomato back from South America, a land mistakenly considered to be eden, ever jumped to be the obvious conclusion.Wrongly taken as the apple of Eden, the tomato was shut o the door of Europeans. What made it particularly terrifying was its similarity to the mandrake,a plant that was the to have come from Hell （地狱）.What earned the plant its awful reputation was its roots w looked like a dried-up human body occupied by evil spirits.Tough the tomato and the man were quite different except that both had bright red or yellow fruit, the general population consio them one and the same, to terrible to touch.‎ Cautious Europeans long ignored the tomato, and until the early 1700s most of the We people continued to drag their feet. In the 1880s, the daughter of a well-known plant expert that the most interestinig part of an afternoon tea at her father’s house had been the “introduction this wonderful new fruit-or is it a vegetable?”As late as the twentieth century some writers classed tomatoes with mandrakes as an”evil fruit”.‎ But in the end tomatoes carried the day. The hero of the tomato was an American named R Johnson,and when he ‎ was publicly going to eat the tomato in 1820,people journeyed for hun of miles to watch him drop dead.”Wha are you afraid of?”he shouted.”I’ll show you fools these things are good to eat!” Then he bit into the tomato.Some people fainted. But he sur and,according to a local story,set up a tomato-canning factory.‎ ‎68. The tomato was shut out of the door of early Europeans mainly because ______. A it made Christive evil B it was the apple of Eden C it came from a forbidden land D it was religiously unacceptable ‎69. What can we infer the underlined part in Paragraph 3 ? A The process of ignoring the tomato slowed down B There was little pregress in the study of the tomato C The tomato was still refused in most western countries D Most western people continued to get rid of the tomato ‎70. What is the main reason for Robert Johnson to eat the tomato Publicly ? A To manke imself a hero B To remove people’s fear of the tomaoto C To speed up the popularityt of the tomato D To persuade people to buy products forom his factory ‎71. What is the main purpose of the passage ? A To challenge people’s fixed concept of the tomato B To give an explanation to people’s dislike of the tomato C To present the change of people’s attitudes to the tomato D To show the process of freeing the tomato from religious influence E In his 1930 essay “Economic Possibilities for Our Grandchildren “, John Keynes, acconmist, ewrote that human needs fall into two classes: absolute needs ,which are indupe what other have , and relative needs ,which make us feel superior to our fellows He thought alough relative needs may indeed be insatible (无止境的) this isnottrue ofabsolute Keynes wans surely correct that only a small part of total spending id decided by the super iority He was gretly mistaken ,however ,in seeting this desive as the only source of demands Decisions to spend are also driven by ideas of quality which can influnce the den almost all goods, including even basic goods like food. When a couple goes out for an anm dinner,for example,the thought of feeling superior to others probably never comes to them. The goal is to share a special meal that stands out from other meals.‎ There are no obvious limits to the escalation of demand for quality.For example ,porsche famous car producer,has a model which was considered perhaps the best sport car on the mark Priced at over $120,000,it handles perfectly well and has great speen acceleration.But in 200 the producer introduced some changes which made the model slightly better in handling acceleration.People who really care about cars find these small improvemenmts ‎ exciting.To them,however,they must pay almost four times the price.‎ By placing the desire to be superior to other at the heart of his description of nisation demands,Keynes actually reduced such demands.However,the desire for higher quality has natural limits.‎ ‎72.According to the passage,John Keynes Believed that_______. A.desire is the root of both absolute and relative needs B.absolute needs come from our sense of superiority C.relative needs alone lead to insatiable demands D.absolute needs are stronger than relative needs ‎73.What do we know about the couble in Paragraph 3? A.They want to show their superiority B.They find specialty important to meals C.Their demands for food are not easily satisfied. D.Their choice of dinner is related to ideas of quality.‎ ‎74.What does the underlined word “escalation”in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Understanding. B.Increase C.Difference D.Study ‎75.The author of the passage that ______. A. absolute needs have no limits B. demands for quality are not insatiable C. human desires influsnce ideas of quality D. relative needs decide most of our spending 四、写作（共两节，满分35分） 第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 以下标有题号的每一行均有一个错误，请找出，并按下列情况改正； 此行多一个词，把多余的词用斜线（）划掉，在该行右边横线上写出该词，并也用斜线划掉。 此行缺一个词，在缺词处加一个漏字符号（^），在该行右边横线上写出该加的词。 此行错一个词，在错的词下划一横线，在该行右边横线上写出改正后的词。 注意：请在答题卡上作答。‎ Dear Grandpa, How are you those days?

In the 1880s, the daughter of a well-known plant expert that the most interestinig part of an afternoon tea at her father’s house had been the “introduction this wonderful new fruit-or is it a vegetable?”As late as the twentieth century some writers classed tomatoes with mandrakes as an”evil fruit”.‎ But in the end tomatoes carried the day.
