A rich man was riding along the road and saw an old man digging in his garden. There was a young tree lying on the ground. The rich man asked the old man, “What kind of tree are you planting there, my good man？”
“This is a fig(无花果) tree, sir，” he said.
“A fig tree？” the rich man was very surprised. “Why, how old are you, may I ask？”
“I am ninety years old.”
“What！” shouted the rich man. “You're ninety years old. You are planting a very young tree now and it'll take years to give fruit. You certainly don't hope to live long enough to get any fruit from this tree.” The old man smiled and said, “Tell me, sir, did you eat figs when you were a boy？” “Sure，” the man did not know why he asked this question.
The old man asked, “Who planted the fig trees？” “Why I don't know.”
“You see, sir，” the old man said slowly, “Our forefathers planted trees for us to enjoy and I am doing the same for the people after me.”
The rich man was quiet. Then he said, “You are right, my good man. We should do some things for the people after us. Thank you very much.” Then he rode away.

A group of frogs(青蛙) were traveling through the woods. Suddenly, two of them fell into a hole. All of the other frogs wanted to save their friends, but the hole was too deep. Then they thought the two should prepare themselves for their fate(命运)．
The two didn't want to accept this terrible fate, so they began to try their best to jump. The other frogs shouted that they should save their energy(力量). But the two frogs didn't listen and kept jumping. Several hours later, they were quite tired. Finally, one of the frogs decided to give up. The other frog continued to jump, though he was tired.
The others kept shouting that the effort(努力) wasn't useful. However, the frog jumped harder and harder and finally, he jumped so high that he got out of the hole. The other frogs cheered him and then asked how he made it.
The frog explained to them that he was deaf. He considered the other frogs' shouting as encouragement. It encouraged him to succeed. As we can see, encouraging words can help people get over the difficulties.

1．…In ancient China, there was a farmer. Though he worked in the fields, the harvest could only support his own life. The farmer wanted to change his life, but he was too lazy to work hard every day.
One day, something amazing happened. The farmer was working in the fields. Suddenly, he heard a strange noise. He looked around and saw a little hare under a tree stump. It ran so fast that it bumped into the tree stump and died. The farmer was very happy and he took the hare home and cooked a big meal. From then on, he didn't work anymore. He waited near the tree stump for hares day after day. Obviously, he was not so lucky. Moreover, as nobody took care of the crops in the fields, they all died.
This story tells us that we should not always follow the past experience and we should fix new problems with new ways. Also, it reminds us never to expect to gain without working.阅读组合训练一

In China, when you refused someone, he or she might say he or she eats a bowl of door closing thick soup. In Chinese, it is called “吃闭门羹(Eating a bowl of door closing thick soup)”. What is the story behind this saying It is said that during the Tang Dynasty, there lived a beautiful woman named Shi Feng. Many young men admired(仰慕) her. But Shi was hard to choose. She asked her admirers(追求者) to write poems and show them to her. She did this to see how talented they were. If Shi liked someone's poems, she would agree to meet him. If she didn't, she would't meet him. But then, to be polite, she would at least give him a bowl of “geng” to eat. “Geng” is a type of thick soup. It is usually made with grain, fruit and vegetables.
As time passed, “eating a bowl of thick soup” came to mean “being refused”. The dish was also nicknamed “door closing thick soup”， since Shi would not open her door for the people who received the dish.
But there is a twist(转折) to this story. “Door closing thick soup” was said to be so tasty that people started coming to Shi's door not to meet her, but to have a taste of the soup!
( )6．Who would Shi agree to meet
A．The men who were rich.
B．The men who were brave.
C．The men who were talented.
D．The men who were good looking.
( )7．What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 1 refer to(指的是)
A．Asking her admirers to write poems.
B．Asking her admirers to read poems.
C．Asking her admirers to eat a bowl of “geng”.
D．Helping her admirers to write poems happily.
( )8．Which situation is “having door closing thick soup” now used to describe
A．The situation in which someone cannot open a door.
B．The situation in which someone wants to meet someone.
C．The situation in which someone wants to drink soup.
D．The situation in which someone is refused by others.
( )9．What is the text mainly about
