A
One day when some government officials were rebuilding a house, they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to make the mice inside the hole come out. A while later they saw mice running out, one after another，but they saw two mice didn’t run away immediately. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.
Everyone was puzzled, so they came nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the two mice was blind, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite his tail in order to pull the blind one with him to run away.
During the meal tim ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e, they started to talk about the two mice. One serious American said, “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of king and guard.”
A smart Frenchm ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )an said, “I think the relationship between them was that of husband and wife.”
A Japanese said, “I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) think the relationship between them was that of mother and son.”
At that moment, one C ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hinese asked, “Why did those two mice have a certain relationship ”
Suddenly, they ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) looked back at the Chinese. The American, the Frenchman and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame, and didn’t answer.
In fact, the great ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )love is not built on friendship or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.
1. The two mice didn’t go away immediately because _______.
A. one was playing ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )with the other B. one was trying to help the blind one
C. they were not a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )fraid of smoke D. the mouth of the hole was too small
2. The underlined word ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) “puzzled” in the passage means_____ in Chinese.
A. 困惑的 B. 害怕的 C. 紧张的 D. 担心的
3. We know from the second paragraph that _______.
A. the mouse carried the blind one out of the hole on its back
B. the mouse ran out of the hole after the blind one
C. the mouse pulled the blind one out of the hole with its tail
D. the two mice came out of the hole hand in hand
4. Which of the following is NOT true
A. There were many mice in the hole.
B. After the meal, the officials began to talk about the two mice.
C. The other off ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )icials felt shamed when hearing the Chinese’s words.
D. The government officials came from different countries.
5. The best title for the passage is _____.
A. Two Lovely Mice B. Help Produces Love
C. Friends in Need D. Love Is All
B
A ship was sailing ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on the sea. A black boy who worked at the end of the ship fell into the sea and the boy shouted for help. But the wind was too strong, so the people in the boat couldn’t hear the sound.
The boy tried hi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s best to swim in the cold water. He used his power to wave his arms, keep the head out of the water. The boat sailed further and further, and the ship became smaller and smaller. In the end, he could see nothing except for the endless sea.
His power was ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) used up, he felt he was going to sink. “Maybe I need to give up.” He said to himself. At this time, he recalled the memory of the kind and friendly sight of the old captain. “No! The captain must search for me!” he thought. When he thought of that, he was full of power and began to swim.
Finally the ca ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ptain found the black child had disappeared. He felt the boy must fall into the sea, so he ordered his ship to return to look for the boy. At this moment, someone said to the captain: “it has passed a long time, he must have been drowned or have been eaten by shark…” and someone else said: “Is it worth to save a black boy like this ” the captain yelled: “shut up…!”At that moment of drowning, the ship arrived and the captain saved the kid. When the boy woke up, the captain asked: “How can you insist on so long time ” the boy answered: “I knew you would save me! I am very sure.”
It is the best ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lucky thing to believe a person. In this society, maybe we are unwilling to believe something, just because someone ever hurts us badly. Actually, you can believe many things in this world. I still believe that there are more kind people than the indifferent people. To believe or not to believe, it depends on you.
1. From the article, we know .

B. the boy was taking the ship to go sighting
C. the boy couldn’t swim
