The colonists of the eighteenth century pushed forward what those of the seventeenth century have begun: the expansion and elaboration of an economy born in the great age of capitalist expansion.          Our excellent natural resources paved the way for the development of abundant capital to increase our growth. Capital includes the tools – such as: machines, vehicles, and buildings – that makes the outputs of labor and resources more valuable. But it also includes the funds necessary to buy those tools. If a society had to consume everything it produced just to stay alive, nothing could be put aside to increase future productions. But if a farmer can grow more corn than his family needs to eat, he can use the surplus as seed to increase the next crop, or to feed workers who build tractors. This process of capital accumulation was aided in the American economy by our cultural heritage. Saving played an important role in the European tradition. It contributed to American’s motivation to put something aside today for the tools to buy tomorrow.          The great bulk of the accumulated wealth of America, as distinguished from what was consumed, was derived either directly or indirectly from trade. Though some manufacturing existed, its role in the accumulation of capital was negligible. A merchant class of opulent proportions was already visible in the seaboard cities, its wealth as the obvious consequence of shrewd and resourceful management of the carrying trade. Even the rich planters of tidewater Virginia and the rice coast of South Carolina finally depended for their genteel way of life upon the ships and merchants who sold their tobacco and rice in the markets of Europe. As colonial production rose and trade expanded, a business community emerged in the colonies, linking the provinces by lines of trade and identity of interest.

Few people realize that anteaters have no teeth. Their Jawbones protrude and are almost entirely covered with skin, making their oral cavities very small. An anteater's tongue, covered with adhesive saliva to hold termites on touch, can be extended a long way beyond its mouth. Then the animal draws its back and swallows. Although some termites build sizable mud nests, the anteater's powerful front paws have lengthy claws that can tear open the termites' nests, either on the ground or in trees.       The claws on anteaters' front legs are so long that the animals walk on the outer edges of their feet rather than on the soles. The longest claw folds back into a skin pouch in the sole of the foot. The solitary Tamadua anteater utilizes its prehensile tail as an arm to grasp a tree branch and lift itself as high as the tree crown. This physical characteristic enables the Tamadua anteaters to live and hunt in trees. The silky anteater can also live in trees and sleeps curled up on a branch, to which it anchors itself by its tail and hind feet. Although the animals rarely attack, when disturbed they rear up on their hind legs and draw their forefeet alongside their head to strike an enemy with their claws or to squeeze it in their forearms. With only one offspring at a time, these mamals are extremely protective of their young, which ride on their mother's back. Little is known about anteaters' habitats and social organization. Question 66: According to the passage, anteaters ________ .  A. have no nasal passages                                           B. cannot lick                        C. cannot open their mouth                                         D. cannot chew Question 67: What do anteaters do to grasp termites?    A. They inhale and create pressure on their tongues.    B. They expand their mouth openings.    C. They use the sticky substance on their tongues.    D. They apply force in their lateral grip. Question 68: What explains the anteaters' distinguishing walk? A. The length of their nails. .                              B. The size of their bones. C. The length of their legs.                                  D. The sides of their feet.                            Question 69: In the passage, the word "solitary" is closest in meaning to ___________ .    A. soulful              B. withdrawn             C. withheld               D. somber       Question 70: In the passage, the word "crown" is closest in meaning to _________ .       A.  hollow             B. top                        C. trunk                    D. limb           Question 71: Why is an anteater's tail compared to an arm?    A.
