40、 23-25 One of the most popular myths about the United States in the 19th Century was that of the free and simple life of the farmer, (23) It was said that the farmers worked hard on their own land to produce whatever their families needed. They might sometimes trade with their neighbors, but in gene
41、ral they could get along just fine by depending on themselves, not on commercial ties with others. This is how Thomas Jefferson idealized the farmer at the beginning of the 19th century.

C.It made farmers less dependent on local bankers.D.It provided evidence that Jefferson“s ideal could be achieved.解析：解析 According to the speaker, why was the world ma
48、rket important for the United States agriculture? 根据“关注结尾”原则，倒数第二句为“由于世界市场影响了农作物的价格，作为商人，农民们现在不得不但心世界市场”，故选 B“它影响了农作物的价格”。Passage OneQuestions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard. （分数：21.00）A.He teaches a course on finance.B.He“s a Lincoln scholar.
