The trees arrived by post, a half-open parcel. They were thin and straight, rather like arrows but with shiny leaves at one end and muddy roots at the other. Terry and his father took them down the garden and planted them in their prepared places. Terry had great hopes of the middle trees, now set in the holy spot where Henry, his eat, run over, had been laid to rest a year before. The nine trees made an avenue down
one side of the garden, where there was already a fifteen-foot stonewall between the garden and the backyards of the Jenkins Street houses.
"Why do we want a row of trees as well as a wall7" Terry asked his father.
His father said, "For privacy. These trees grow very thickly."
His father's love of privacy often puzzled Terry, who was not one to keep himself to himself, but he could see part of the point here. The houses in Jenkins Street were on higher ground. His friend Leslie lived in number twelve, and Leslie had only to stand on a box to see right over the wall.
"Will the trees grow higher than the wall?" Terry asked then.
"Oh yes, twice as high if not more. It' 11 take a few years but they' 11 grow."
So they were going to have nine trees thirty feet tall, to keep them from being overlooked. Terry wondered why this was so desirable. He said, "Our garden is very pretty. Why can't we let the people over the wall see it? That wouldn't be showing off, would it?"
"No, I don't think it would be," his father said. "Yet some people might feel a bit less happy if they can always see a good thing that isn' t theirs. We don' t want to be the cause of any jealousy if we can help it."
This consideration for other people' s feelings must be a grown-up thing, Terry thought. It was not his idea of how to run things. He said, "These trees- it seems a lot of trouble to go to just to stop people being jealous of us."
His father looked at him. "It isn't much trouble, Terry," he said. "These trees will grow without help from us. They' 11 be beautiful. And listen to them. You can already hear them whispering to us in the wind."
71. How do we know that Terry's father was expecting the trees?
A. He thought they would grow tall and thick.
B. He expected them because they arrived by post.
C. He and Terry had dug holes for them.
D. The parcel was half open, so he could see they were trees.
72. Part of the garden is called a holy spot because _______.
A. Henry had been run over just there
B. a cat was buried there
C. Terry thought it was holy
D. it was right in front of Leslie' s house
73. We know from the passage that Terry' s father is a man who_______.
A. was proud of his garden and liked showing it off
B. didn't quite like his neighbors
C. preferred to keep his privacy
D. felt jealous of the people in Jenkins Street
74. Why were the trees planted in front of the wall7
A. Because that was where they would grow' faster.
B. To improve the appearance of the house.
C. To hide the ugly sight of Jenkins Street.
D. To stop people from looking inside.
75. According to Terry's father, the thing that might have made the neighbors feel less happy was______.
A. the wall B. the thriving row of trees
C. the well-kept garden D. the privacy of the place

Li Ming and Wang Ying are two students of Senior Three. They
both work hard but they have different learning methods.
Li Ming often sleeps in class instead of listening to the teacher. As result, he misses lots of points that the teacher makes and it usually takes him more time to finish his homework. So he has to stay up late and doesn' t get enough sleep.
However, Wang Ying has quite a different way of learning. She listens attentively and tries to catch everything that the teacher says in class. Because of this, she spends less time doing her homework, which makes it possible for her to go to bed early.
In my opinion, Wang Ying learns more effectively in class and has more free time to enjoy herself, so I prefer her learning method.
