At a certain time in our lives we consider every place as the possible site(地点)for a house.I have thus searched the country within a dozen miles of where I live.In imagination I have bought all the farms,one after another,and I knew their prices.
The nearest thing that I came to actual ownership was when I bought the Hollowell place.But before the owner completed the sale with me,his wife changed her mind and wished to keep it。and he offered me additional dollars to return the farm to him.However。I let him keep the additional dollars and sold him the farm for j ust what I had given for it.
The real attractions of the Hollowell farm to me were its position,being about two miles from the village,half a mile from the nearest neighbor.bounded(相邻)on one side by the river,and separated from the highway by a wide field.The poor condition of the house and fences showed that it hadn’t been used for some time.I remembered from my earliest trip up the river that the house used to he hidden behind a forest area,and 1 was in a hurry to buy it before the owner finished getting out some rocks,cutting down the apple trees,and clearing away some young trees which had grown up in the fields.1 wanted to buy it before he made any more of his improvements.But it turned out as I have said.
1 was not really troubled by the loss.I had always had a garden,but I don’t think 1 was ready for a large farm.I believe that as long as possible it is better to live free and uncommitted(不受约束的).It makes but little difference whether you own a farm or not.
What do we know about the author?
选项
A、He wanted to buy the oldest farm near where he lived.
B、He made a study of many farms before buying.
C、He made money by buying and selling farms.
D、He had the money to buy the best farm in the country.
答案
B
解析
根据第一段中的“I have thus searched the country within a dozen miles of where I Iive.”可判断此项正确。文章中没有提到那个农场最古老,所以A项不正确;根据第二段最后一句可知作者并没有赚钱,因此C项错误;D项在文章中没有信息支持。

政府当然应该接受批评,但批评的基础应该是事实,而不是谣言。如城管,你可以批评授权过度,也可以批评一些地区没有将城管纳入体制编制带来的执法倾向的不当。但在网上整天发一些没有时间、没有地点、没有准确事实描述的图片故事.就不是一种正常的批评。这段文字意在说明(
