A. Choose the best answer. (根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案)（12分）
Brazil (巴西) is the greatest football nation in the world. There are 100 million Brazilians
(巴西人). How many of them are football fans? 100 million! All of them think that they know
all about football. This makes life very difficult for the Brazilian team manager. When things go badly for the Brazilian team, the newspaper would demand (要求) that the team manager should leave his job. “If we win, they put me in heaven (天堂),” as a manager once said, “If we lose, they put me in hell (地狱).”
You can’t escape football in Brazil. There are football matches on every street and beach. On television, the results of the football matches come before the main news programs. There
are six television channels in Rio de Janeiro. On Sundays each channel shows a different football match.
Brazil is not the richest country in the world, but the government spends huge sums of money on football. It cost more than one billion pounds to prepare for the 1978 World Cup. That’s 10 pounds for every Brazilian man, woman, and child. And many Brazilians don’t earn as much as 10 pounds a week. Is it worth it?
“Brazil must have a great football team,” says one journalist. “If it costs one billion pounds, that’s all right. If the government doesn’t give a good football team, then it will become unpopular. Football is more than a game in Brazil.”
Football is more than a game in Brazil. This is certainly true in its largest city, Sao Paulo. The most popular team is Corinthians. Corinthians’ fans are the most loyal (忠实的) and emotional in Brazil. When Corinthians win, production in the Sao Paulo car factories increases by fifteen per cent. When they lose, it drops. At one time Corinthians won the national championship for the first time. For four days fans danced and sang in the streets.
74. In Brazil the number of football fans and its population are __________. A. the same B. less C. more D. 100 billion 75. Life for __________ is no easy, for he will be put in hell if the football team loses. A. a football fan B. any government official C. the Brazilian team

A. one billion dollars B. one million pounds C. one billion pounds
D. one million RMB
78. Football is more than a game in Brazil. The underlined sentence means “In Brazil __________.”
A. people like football very much B. there is something else in football

D. Answer the questions. (根据短文内容回答下列问题)（12分）
Many years ago in another country there lived a poor student. He had very little money. He lived in a very small room over a restaurant. His room was at the back of the building over the kitchen. The restaurant owner was a very mean (吝啬的) man. Nobody liked him. But he was good at cooking and many people came to his restaurant.
One day the restaurant owner was working quietly in his kitchen when he heard the poor student talking to his friend by accident.
“You must be very unhappy,” said his friend, “living in a poor room like this.”
“Oh no,” said the student, “I am busy with my studies and I am not interested in my room.” “But you only eat rice – you don’t have money for anything tasty.”
“Yes, it’s true, I eat only rice. But the delicious smells that come from the kitchen make the rice very tasty indeed.”
The restaurant owner was angry on hearing this. This student was stealing his smells from his kitchen. He decided to take him to court (法庭).
Everybody in the court laughed when the mean man accused (控告) the student of stealing his smells. But the judge took him seriously. “Every man should be able to complain to the court,” he said.
When the restaurant owner told the judge everything, the judge said, “You are right. The student is guilty (有罪的).” The restaurant owner was very pleased, but the poor student was very much afraid. What could he do? He had only a few coins in his pocket.
The judge asked the student if he had any money. The student took 5 coins from his pocket and held them out to the judge in his right hand.
“Let the coins fall into your left hand,” said judge.
The courtroom was very quiet. Everyone heard the light ringing sound of the coins as they fell into the student’s left hand.
“Well,” said the judge to the restaurant owner, “you’ve heard his money. You’ve been well paid for your smells.”
