B
When people talk about city life, they will probably think of tall buildings, busy streets, big supermarkets, wonderful shopping centers and so on. Most of the people have busy work during days and nights so they feel stressed all the time and they may not have enough time to spend with their family. What about country life？ The first feeling that comes into people’s mind is quiet. In the country, there is less noise and pollution. Almost everyone could enjoy a quieter life there. City life and country life, which is better for people？ The answer is not certain.
People who live in the country want to be city people. In their opinion, cities are full of chances (机遇) and challenges. Today many country people leave their home for big cities. They want to find some good jobs and make a lot of money there. On the contrary, lots of people in the city want to live in the country because now the pollution problem in big cities is becoming more and more serious. The air is not clean enough for people, especially in the city center. Also, noise is everywhere. It’s not easy for you to find a quiet place to enjoy some peaceful time. Many people think it’s much more comfortable to live with green mountains, the blue sky, green trees, the red sunset and golden crops (农作物).
However, now the difference between the city and the country is not as clear as it was in the past. The country looks like modern cities, and some cities are as beautiful as the country.
( ) 56. Why do many people want to live in big cities？
A. Because they can’t find jobs in the country.
B. Because the environment in cities is better.
C. Because they want to live a better life in cities.
D. Because the country is too far away from the workplaces.
( ) 57. What does the underlined word “contrary” in Paragraph 2 mean？
A. Truthful. B. Opposite. C. Similar. D. Common.
( ) 58. How was city life in the old days according to the passage？
A. Quite different from country life.
B. Almost the same as country life.
C. Much richer and easier than it is now.
D. Busier and more difficult than it is now.
( ) 59. What can we learn from the passage？
A. There’s no noise or pollution in the country.
B. Most city people want to live in the country.
C. People have different ideas of city life and country life.
D. People can’t see green mountains or golden crops in the country now.
