Farmers can produce more by planting several different crops in the same field. But their success depends on which crops they plant together and how they mix (混合) them in the filed. Until now, the only way the farmers could learn which crops grow best together is to plant them and wait for the results. Now, however, a computer can give them answers. A new computer program written by Dr John Vanderwell of Michigan University can tell a farmer which plants grow well together and which do not. It can tell him how to plant the different crops; if he should plant each in a separate row（行）,or mix the crops in the same row. It can tell the farmer how changes in planting each of the crops will affect the production of all of them. And it can tell him which plants can help reduce losses（损失）from diseases.

A. Computer helps find the best program for mixing plants.

B. Computer helps produce more crops.

C. Computer helps protect against insects and diseases.

A. whether we should grow cotton and tomato together

B. how we should plant cotton and tomato together

D. how we can grow rice in the tomato field

Country music is one of the most popular kinds of music in the United States today because it is about simple but strong human feelings and events-love, sadness, good times, and bad times. It tells real-life, stories and sounds the way people really talk. As life becomes more complicated(复杂), it is good to hear music about ordinary people.

Country music, sometimes called country-western, comes from two kinds of music. One is the traditional music of the people in the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern Unite States. The other is traditional cowboy music from the west. The singers usually play guitars, and in the 1920s they started using electric guitars. At first city people said country music was low class. It was popular mostly in the South. But during World War II, thousands of Southerners went to the Northeast and Midwest to work in the factories. They took their music with them. Soldiers from the rest of the country went to army camps（军营）in the South. They learned country music. Slowly it became popular all over the country.

Today country music is also popular everywhere in the United States and Canada—in small towns and in New York City, among black and white, and among educated and uneducated people. About 1, 200 radio stations broadcast country music twenty-four hours a day. English stars sing it in British English, and people in other countries sing it in their own languages. The music that started with cowboys and poor southerners is now popular all over the world.

A recent survey shows that in today's society, Chinese young people's life goals have become more diversified than before. When young people are asked what they will struggle for, more than half of the respondents choose to earn enough money to buy a house and a car for themselves. In addition to this practical goal, some people, about 44%, pick up their life goal as improving their life quality or to be a rich person while 23.9% of the respondents are simply satisfied to have a good job. As for how to achieve their life goals, most of them prefer struggling to realize their dreams. The survey shows that the society is making progress and people's life goals have become more practical.
