| 阅读理解。 | There lived a king who liked art. One day an artist offered to paint the most beautiful picture
in the world on the wall of his palace.
So the king said,"All right,you may work on one of the walls in the new hall."
Just then,another artist said, "Please allow me to work on the opposite wall. I shall make
exactly what that man will make on the opposite wall. Moreover,I shall do so without looking
at his work. I would even request you to have a thick curtain put up between the two walls so
that either of us cannot see the other."
Everyone in the king"s court,including the king and the first artist was intrigued. So the king
decided to give the second artist a chance.
The following day,a thick curtain was put in place and both the artists got to work. The first
artist brought a regular supply of paint,oil and water. But the second one would come with a cloth
and a bucket of water every day.
A month later the first artist said that his work was completed and invited the king to come.
So the king sent a message to the second artist,saying he was coming to see their works that
evening.
After seeing the first artist"s wall,the king was very impressed with the painting and gave him
a huge sum of money as a reward. He then asked some people to remove the curtain.
The same painting was seen on the opposite wall too! It was exactly like the one on the first
wall. But the second artist had not seen what was going on, on the other side of the curtain.
The king gave the second artist a double reward,and then asked,"I am indeed very happy with
your work. But how did you do it?"
The man said simply,"It"s very easy!I just polished(擦亮) the wall every day!"
It was a wall made of white marble(大理石)! The fellow polished it till it shone like a mirror.
The reflection of the painting across the room showed up in it! | | 1. A thick curtain was put up between the two walls to ________. | A. help them concentrate on their works

D. common | | 阅读理解。 | After their 15-year-old dog Bailey died in 2007, Ron and his wife, Ann, looked for months to find the
right new pet. "I love dogs," says Ron, a worker at a health club in Waukesha, Wisconsin. "I can"t imagine not having one."
Finally, the couple spotted a young dog at the Humane Society in Milwaukee. His name was Oscar.
"He was very attractive," says Ron, 65. Oscar quickly made himself at home, sleeping on his new owners" bed at night.
A diabetic(糖尿病人) for 25 years, Ron faithfully took his medicine four times a day and generally
had no problems. But on March 17, at about 3 a.m., he got out of bed to use the bathroom. Suddenly, he
fell down to the floor. "I must have taken the wrong amount of medicine before I went to sleep, because
my blood sugar was dangerously low," he says.
"Normally, Oscar is very quiet and well-behaved," says Ron. "But when I hit the floor, he let out
sounds like a wild animal."
"Honestly, it sounded like the dog from hell," says Ann, who was awakened by the sound." I didn"t
know what the sound was. Then I saw my husband lying on the bathroom floor. He was cold." She ran
for the phone and called an ambulance.
Ron spent several hours in the hospital. By 6:30a.m., he was well enough to go home. "You would
never suspect Oscar of any heroism." says his grateful owner. "He"s a wonderful little guy. We are lucky
enough to own him."

name Oscar wasn"t good enough," says Ron, "so sometimes we call him Eduardo"-more suitable, they
think, for their dog. | | 1. What was Ann doing when Ron went to the bathroom? | A. She was sleeping.

D. was found at a health club in Waukesha | | 阅读理解。 | The island Fiji has always been around me in my life. My parents met in Fiji when my father was a
teacher as a Peace Corps volunteer and my mother a student. They taught me about its people, culture,
foods and religious beliefs.
At the age of two, I made my first trip across the Pacific Ocean to Fiji. My mother and I made that
trip unexpectedly because my grandma was ill and longed to see her American granddaughter. Although
I have few memories of that first trip, I do remember grandma braiding(编辫子) my hair every day. The
brush gliding through my hair is a feeling I will treasure forever because she passed away soon. I returned
to America when I was five years old. This time I had a brother, Martin, who was two.
I resisted my third trip to Fiji when I was 15, being a teenager who did not want to spend the summer
away from friends. It was this trip, however, that made me realize that Fiji is not just a place to visit but a
part of who I am. The smells and sounds and sights came back to me, but the best part was getting to
know my relatives.
Vishal was one cousin I quickly bonded with(与…合拍). Born two days before me, I had only
known him through pictures before. Though raised oceans apart in different cultures, we talked and
laughed about everything from American sports to Fijian dancing. I was able to form close ties with all
my cousins, and when I talk about them now, it"s as if I have known them my whole life. Spending time
with them helped me understand the traditions and values my mother grew up with. Hospitality (热情)
and care and respect for family members are central values in Fijian culture.
I truly enjoyed learning about my roots during this trip. Fuji is just like a second home, and I will never
forget the time I have spent there. | | 1. From the passage, we can learn that ________. | A. the author"s parents had been classmates before
B. the author had lived in Fiji for about five years
C. the author had no memories of her grandma
D. people value family in Fijian culture | | 2. The author resisted her third trip to Fiji because_________. | A. she didn"t want to separate from her brother
B. she didn"t know her cousins there very well
C. she didn"t want to separate from her American friends
D. her grandma had passed away | | 3. Which of the following is TRUE about Vishal? | A. He is younger than the author.
B. The author had met him on her first trip to Fiji.
C. He and the author had lots of common interests.
D. He and the author held different opinions about Fijian culture. | | 4. What"s the best title for the passage? | A. My Trips to Fiji
B. Discovering My Fijian Origins
C. My Understanding of Fijian Culture
D. My Memories of Fiji | 最新试题
