There were many plants in a forest. When spring came, a pine tree saw a red rose nearby and said, “What a beautiful flower! I wish I were that lovely.”
The rose proudly said, “It seems that I am the most beautiful flower in this forest.” Then the rose looked at a cactus(仙人掌) and said, “Look at that ugly plant full of thorns(刺)!”
“What a proud flower!” thought the tree.
As the days passed, the red rose often looked at the cactus and said bad words about it, like “This plant is useless. How sorry I am to be his neighbor!”
The cactus never got angry and even tried to advise the rose, saying, “Any form of life couldn’t be created without a purpose.”
Spring passed, and the weather became very hot. As there was no rain, the red rose began to wilt(枯萎).
One day the rose saw birds put their beaks (喙) into the cactus and then fly away. The red rose asked the pine tree what the birds were doing. The pine tree explained that the birds were getting water from the cactus.
“The cactus has water ” asked the rose.
“Yes, you can also drink some from it. The birds can bring water to you if you ask the cactus for help.”
The red rose felt too ashamed to ask for water from the cactus. But finally it did ask for help. The cactus kindly agreed.
The rose learned a lesson that never judged (评价) anyone by their appearance again.

四、任务型阅读
Do April showers really bring May flowers The exact effect of rainfall depends on what type of flower you’re talking about. A perennial (多年生的) plant lives for several years and has flowers every year. Some perennials, especially those in warmer areas, might bloom in March or April. The previous(先前的) month’s rainfall usually has little effect on when these flowers bloom.
The roots of perennials are always in the ground. Therefore, their health and growth depend on the rainfall over many months. During the course of blooming, too much rainfall could actually be harmful. Some flowers are more likely to be affected by diseases if there is too much rain.
Annuals（一年生植物）grow and die within one year. Annual flowers are different from perennials. They need enough water to grow. For them, what matters is the amount of rainfall in the months after they’re planted, not the months before.
So what really brings May flowers There’s one factor that is much more important than rainfall: temperature. It determines when a flower will bloom. When the average temperature approaches spring—like weather, flowers will begin to bloom.

五、短文填空
A
A man had a garden. He planted a rose and watered it 37 (careful). Before the rose blossomed(盛开), he noticed many thorns(刺) around the bud(花蕾) and he thought, “H 38 can any beautiful flower come from a plant with so many sharp thorns ” Because of this i 39 , he lost interest in this kind of plant. Then he gave up watering the rose. And just 40 it was ready to blossom, it died.
Good qualities are just like roses. There is a rose in everybody’s spirit. The good 41 (quality) planted in us at birth grow among the thorns—our weaknesses. Many of us look at 42 (we) and we only see our weaknesses. We lose heart, thinking that n 43 good can possibly come from us. We give up watering the roses in us, and slowly they die. We never realize the g 44 for being able to find out our good qualities.
Someone may not see the rose in himself, so we need to 45 (help) him discover the rose. With love, we can accept a person into our life, even though we know his true weaknesses. At the same time, we should e 46 him to face his weaknesses bravely and correct them.
Then he will blossom many times.

Boys and girls,
I’m very happy to speak here and I’d like to share my planting experience with you.
I like planting flowers in my free time. Planting flowers is a very enjoyable hobby and teaches me to have patience with everything.
But how can we plant a flower Here are some steps. First, put the seed into a pot and cover it with rich soil. Second, water it at the proper time. Don’t water too little or too much. Third, put it in the sun so that it can grow strong.
Planting flowers can not only bring us fresh air but also make us relaxed. It’s pleasant to plant flowers.
That’s all. Thank you!
