(四)阅读理解
During the Tang Dynasty (618-907), Emperor Taizong asked the prime minister (宰相) Feng Deyi to recommend (推荐) talented people. However, several months passed, Feng didn't recommend anyone.
"I tried my best, but there are not unusual and perfect people at all," Feng said.
"People are like utensils (器皿). What we need to do is to make good use of their strengths. You should blame(把……归咎于) yourself for not noticing talented people. How could you say that there are no talented people in our era " said the emperor.
Indeed, each utensil or tool has a specific function (功能). A knife is made to cut things while chopsticks are made to pick up food. We can't use a knife as a pair of chopsticks. Like a utensil, each person has a particular strength. Nobody is perfect. We can't expect a person to be good at everything.
With this idea in mind, Emperor Taizong discovered many talented people with different backgrounds. He offered them important positions, which helped them make the most of their talents. His talented people helped the society develop and created a "golden age".
A good example is Ma Zhou, who grew up in a poor family. Ma gave a lot of useful advice, so Emperor Taizong offered him a position and promoted (提升) him many times. Ma helped the emperor deal with complicated issues and became a well-known person in history.
Chang Sheng, a Chinese teacher at the High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China, explains as follows:
As long as a person is talented in one aspect, we should give him a chance. The same idea can be found in The Analects of Confucius (《论语》). Treating people as utensils shows not only good leadership, but a sincere attitude.
Today, as the labor is being divided more and more clearly, the idea still makes sense. If we become leaders someday, we should help others give full play to(充分发挥) their strengths. For example, Liu Bang, the founder of Han Dynasty (202BC-AD220), let Zhang Liang and Xiao He work as advisors for their wisdom while inviting Han Xin to lead the army for his war strategies(战略). Known as the "three heroes of the early Han Dynasty", they helped Liu build a strong dynasty.
1.Why couldn't Feng Deyi find any talented people in Taizong's opinion
A. There were no talented people then.
B. His standards were wrong.
C. He was afraid of being replaced.
D. He was dissatisfied with the emperor.
2.Knives and chopsticks are compared to .
A. positions B. strengths
C. tools D. people
3.Ma Zhou is a good example of people who .
A. have no talent but are still useful
B. are unusual and perfect
C. know when to take a chance
D. show talent in the right field
4.What might be Chang Sheng's opinion
A. People with any talent should be valued.
B. Talented people are difficult to discover.
C. Using people as tools is taking advantage of them.
D. Using people as tools doesn't work today.
5.What is the main idea of the story
A. Opportunity only comes to those who are always prepared.
B. There is no such thing as a great talent without great willpower.
C. Talented people should be valued and led to the right place.
D. Pearls are everywhere but not the same as the eyes.
