One day a little boy decided to dig a hole behind his house after watching a science program.As he was working, a group of older boys stopped by to watch.

The idea that “knowledge is wealth” is not a new one. However, this idea is being put into use in a creative way in public libraries across Japan. In 2010, the country’s public library, Shimonoseki City Library in Yamaguchi Prefecture first carried out “reading bankbooks”in order to encourage people to read more.
In each reading bankbook, the titles of the books that people have read are listed. The dates when the books are borrowed and are supposed to return are also included. Besides, the price of each book readers have read is also listed. This emphasizes the idea that knowledge is valuable. It also gives readers a sense of achievement for what they have read for free.
The Shimonoseki City Library developed “reading bankbooks” with Uchida Yoko, a company that sells teaching tools. Since it first came out in 2010, the idea has become very popular. Today, it is also used in some primary and junior high schools as well. With reading bankbooks, people can put a price on knowledge.
61．Where was the idea of “reading bankbooks” first carried out in Japan?

When the Audet family turns on the lights at Blue Farm, they are using electricity that comes from cows—cow manure (粪肥), to be specific.
Cows produce a lot of wastes. One cow can create 30 gallons of wastes each day. Now imagine the output of over 1,000 cows at Blue Farm. That’s really a big amount.
When farmers clean their barns, they put the wastes in a big heap, and spread some of them on their fields for fertilizer. But now places like Blue Spruce Farm have a new way of using cow wastes. They use them to produce electricity.
Here’s how it works: A big machine moves back and forth cleaning the barn floor. “The cows aren’t bothered,” says Marie Audet. “They are animals of habit; they get used to it, and just lift one foot and then another to let it go by.”
The machine pushes the manure into a big 600-gallon tank like a small swimming pool. The tank is called a digester (化粪池) because what happens there is just like what happens inside a cow: Bacteria get to work and continue to digest the manure.
Methane gas (甲烷、沼气)in the atmosphere is known as a “greenhouse” gas because it keeps heat just like a greenhouse does, causing our planet to warm up. That’s an environmental concern. But the digester has a good result. Its gas is kept and used to power electric generators (发电机).
At Blue Farm, the generators make enough electricity to power 400 homes. The Audet family sells the extra electricity they can’t use themselves.
66. We learn from the text that the Audet family is using cow wastes to ______.
A. make electricity B. produce fertilizer C. build their farm D. feed the cows
67. How are the cow wastes collected into the digester at Blue Farm?
A. Marie Audet does the work. B. The job is done by machine.
C. The cows lift the cow wastes. D. Bacteria get to work on them.
68. According to the passage, which of the following is changed into electricity?
A. The power of moving water. B. The heat of burning coal.
C. The power of sunlight. D. The heat of the methane gas
69. The new way of using cow wastes at Blue Farm might be best described as ______.
A. reducing B. saving C. recycling D. changing
70. What is the main purpose for writing the passage?
A. To introduce a new way of making electricity
B. To explain how a new energy works better
C. To show a new rebuilding plan for a big farm
D. To explain the reasons for green house effect

One possible version：
Recently, a heated discussion was held in our class about whether we should read paper books or electronic books.
Some students argue that paper books are much healthier to our eyes without depending on electronic devices. Meanwhile, reading paper books is easy to see how many pages we have read and create a sense of achievement. What’s more, the parts we don’t understand can be easily found and read. However, other students hold the positive view, thinking E-books are so convenient that we can read them anywhere at any time. Furthermore, so many options of E-books are available on the Internet, which are much cheaper and take up less space.
In my opinion, it doesn’t matter whether we read paper books or E-boos. The most important thing is that we should have a good habit of reading.
