  In 1860, because some of the farm population had moved to __2__the city, yet eighty percent of the American population was still in the country. In the late nineteen century, farm work and life __3__were not much changed from that they had been in old days. The __4__farmer aroused at dawn or before and had much work to do, with __5__his own muscles like his chief source of power. He used axes, __6__spades and other complicated tools.

The family's recreation and social life chiefly consisted a drive in the wagon to the nearby small town or __8__village to transact some business as well as to chat with neighbors who had also come to town.

  The children attended a small elementary school (often of just one room) to that they had to walk every day, possibly for a __9__few miles. The school term was short so that the children could not help on the farm. Although the whole family worked, and life __10__was not easy, farmers as a class were self-reliant and independent.

  答案:

  71. nothing --- everything 据上下文,农民们是自给自足,故应为everything

  72. because --- although 下文中有yet,为让步状语从句,故用although

  73. nineteen --- nineteenth 多少世纪用序数词表示

  74. that --- what 宾语从句,用what引导

  75. aroused --- rose/got up 此处意为“起床”,arouse一般做及物动词,为“唤醒”之意,但是百度里也有做“醒来”的不及物动词之意,希望大家一起探讨一下。

  76. like --- as as意为 “把……作为…….”

  77. complicated --- simple 据上下文,农民们只有“简单的”工具

  78. consisted后加 of be consisted of 为固定搭配,意为“由……组成”

  79. that --- which 定语从句,前面有to,只能用which,不能用that

  80. and --- / although为转折词,不能用and,但是后面也不能加but
