A
Once there was a famine(饥荒). A rich cook sent for twenty of the poorest children in the town and said to them, “In this basket there is a piece of bread for each of you. Take it and come back to me every day at this hour for more.”
In a hurry, the hungry children got together around the basket, and fought over the bread because each wanted the largest piece. At last they went away without even thanking the good cook. Mary, a poorly-dressed girl, did not fight with the other children, but stood quietly in the distance. When the badly-behaved children had left, Mary took the smallest piece, which was all left in the basket. She kissed the cook’s hand and went home.
The next day, the children were as badly-behaved as before. Mary got a piece of bread almost half the size of the one she got on the first day. When she came home, her mother cut the bread open. Many new, shining pieces of silver fell out of it.
Her mother was very worried, and said. “Take the money back to the cook at once. The silver must have fallen into the dough(面团) by accident. Hurry up, Mary.”
When the little girl told the rich man her mother’s message, he said, “It has no mistake. I had the silver pieces put into the smallest bread for you as a prize. Always be as satisfied, peaceable and thankful as you now are. Go home now, and tell your mother that the money is yours.”

A.Because he wanted to give them to the poorest child.
B.Because Mary's mother was very worried.
C.Because he wanted to give them to Mary as a prize.

四、任务型阅读
Almost everyone has a piggy bank (储蓄罐), but do you know why people often make it in the shape (形状) of a pig
Believe it or not, people made the piggy bank in the shape of a pig by mistake. In the Middle Ages, many containers (容器) at home were made of a kind of cheap clay (陶土) called pygg. 单词“pygg”听起来和“pig”一样。At that time, there weren’t banks like we have today, so people would save their money at home in some clay containers. Because the kind of clay was called pygg, people called the containers pygg banks. Over time this became piggy banks. After several hundred years, people forgot that the word “pygg” meant a kind of clay.
The English language also changed. People used the word “pig” more commonly. So when English workers were asked to make “piggy banks”, they thought they needed to make containers in the shape of pigs. Surprisingly (出人意料地), the pig-shaped containers were popular.
Today piggy banks are made of all kinds of things, and they also come in different shapes and animals. But people still call those cute containers for money “piggy banks”.
