harmony and peace for me.
Living in the country requires an active lifestyle. It involves activities like doing daily chores, preparing firewood for winter heating, feeding animals including pets and livestock, tending the garden, or securing fences, etc. For me, the most attractive activities are fishing, hunting and hiking. I enjoy seeing what nature has to offer everyday through a simple walk down the little trail, or a relaxing drive along the country road with patches of green grass ornamented with wildlife sightings of birds, moose, bears, deer, etc.
Living the country life helps us appreciate some of the simpler things, things that make us feel good about ourselves and the world. It may be just a get together on a Saturday at the local farmers market, or a project or a problem that the community might pull together to help solve. I have participated in a few community projects, like dealing with out-of-control grass fires, a roof that collapsed from a large snow fall, or even helping a recent widow with fire wood for the winter. Sometimes I am surprised by how much benefit we receive from helping others and as for this community I can’t say enough.
I really enjoy living the country life. I know it’s not for everyone, but I know it’s for me.

？Read the article about goods and services.
？For each Question 31-40, write one word in CAPITAL LETTERS on your Answer Sheet.
Most of the activity of our economic system is connected with the production and consumption of goods and services. A commodity is anything that (31) human needs. The bread that I eat, the shoes that I wear, the house that I live in are all goods. Individual (32) will differ, of course. I do not happen to care for roses, but as long as someone does, they are a good. Two conditions are (33) for the existence of a good: a human need and a means to meet that need.
Goods may be divided into two main (34) : free goods and economic goods. Free goods are those that are so much supplied by nature that no human effort is (35) to get them. Economic goods are those that are so scarce and relative to human wants that human effort is required to get them. It will be (36) to the reader that whether a commodity falls in the part of free goods or economic goods will depend upon the (37) . On a small island, coconuts might be considered a free good. But when we consider the effort necessary to gather and (38) them, coconuts in New York City are an economic good. Probably the only goods that are free goods under nearly all circumstances are (39) air and sunshine.
A service is any nonmaterial good. The acts of the barber who cuts my hair, and of the railroad that carries me to Chicago are services. Since (40) are generally consumed at the same time that they are produced, it is sometimes convenient to draw a distinction between them.

听力原文： I'm sure almost every one of you looked at your watch or at a clock before you came to class today. Watches and clocks seem as much a part of our life as breathing or eating. And yet did you know that watches and clocks were scarce in the United States until the 1850s. In the late 1700s, people didn't know the exact time unless they were near a clock. Those delightful clocks in the squares of European towns were built for the public. After all, most citizens simply couldn't afford a personal time piece. Well into the 1800s in Europe and the United States, the main purpose of a watch, which by the way was worn off the wrist and on a gold chain, was to show others how wealthy you were. The word "wrist watch" didn't even enter the English language until nearly 1900. By then the rapid pace of the industrialization in the United States meant that measuring time had become essential. How could the factory worker get to work on time unless he or she knew exactly what time it was？ Since the efficiency was now measured by how fast the job was done, everyone was interested in time. And since industrialization made possible the manufacture of large quantities of goods, watches became fairly inexpensive. Furthermore electric lights kept factories going around the clock. Being "on time" had entered the language and life of every citizen.
(29)
A．The industrialization of the United States.
B．The development of individual timepieces.
C．Reasons for increased productivity.
D．How wristwatches are manufactured.
