A boy was one day walking in a field at the foot of a hill, when he saw a sheep
coming towards him.
The poor sheep came running up quite close to him. She then went on a few steps,
at the same time turning round, and looking up in the boy’s face, and bleating (咪咪
叫) loudly.
The boy had never seen a sheep act in this way before and wishing to find out
what the sheep wanted, he began to follow her across the field.
On and on she went, every now and then turning round to see if the boy was
coming.
At last, she led the way to a place where there was a running river, and a deep
pool of water.
As soon as the boy came to this place, he saw a baby sheep trying in vain (徒劳
地) to get out. It had fallen over the bank into the pool below.
The poor mother sheep must have known that better help that she could give was

One day a poor man was walking along from house to house. He carried an old
wallet in one hand and at every house he asked for a little money to buy something to
eat. As he was complaining about his misfortune (不 幸 ), he kept wondering why
some people who had so much money were never satisfied and always wanted more.
He thought that if he only had enough money to buy food and clothing, he would
be very happy and wouldn’t want anything more.
At that moment, Fortune came down the street. She saw the poor man and
stopped. She said to him, “I want to help you. Hold out your wallet and I will pour
this gold into it, but only on this condition. All that falls into your wallet will be gold,
but all that hits the ground will turn into sand. Do you understand ”
“Oh, yes I understand,” said the poor man,
“Your wallet is old. Don’t put too much in it,” said Fortune.
The poor man opened his wallet and a lot of gold was poured into it. His wallet
grew heavy.
“You are the richest man in the world now,” said Fortune. “I think you should
stop! Your wallet is going to break!”
However, the poor man said he wanted one more handful. Fortune added one
more handful and the wallet broke. All the gold fell to the ground and turned into sand.
The poor man had nothing but his empty wallet. He was as poor as he had been before.
( )53. Why did the poor man walk along from door to door
A. To visit his friend. B. To ask for a little money. C. To enjoy nice food.

full of sand.

Wang Yaping, together with Zhai Zhigang and Ye Guangfu, went into space
aboard the Shenzhou XIII on October 16th. The 41-year-old Wang became the first
female astronaut （女航天员） to enter Tiangong space station.
Wang's space dream started in 2003, when China sent its first astronaut Yang
Liwei into space. At that time, Wang was a pilot in the Chinese army. After having
safe flights for 1, 600 hours over nine years, Wang was a strong candidate to become
an astronaut in 2010. She pushed herself hard, getting the same training as men. “The space environment won't change because you are a woman, ” she told Xinbua.
The hardest part is the high-G training. Sitting in a spinning （ 旋 转 的 ）
machine, Wang would become blind for a while because her brain was short of blood.
“There’s a red button （按钮）, said Wang. ” If you can't bear it, you can press it
to stop. ” But Wang never used it. “There is no such red button in my heart. ”That
strong spirit finally made her dream come true in 2013. She joined the team for the
Shenzhou X mission.
Wang said that as astronauts, women have their own advantages （ 优 势 ） .
“Women may be more patient and can better deal with loneliness. Women’s hearts
are also easier to adapt （适应）to the weightless environment, making them more
suitable for long-term missions. ”
Wang Yaping went a long way before becoming the first woman to enter the
Tiangong space station. She sets a good example for all women who dream of going
to space
（ ）57. What does the underlined word candidate in the second paragraph probably
mean
A. 伙伴 B. 候选人 C. 飞行员
（ ）58. Which of the following is TRUE
A. Wang is the first female astronaut in the world.
B. Wang dreamed of being an astronaut in 2003.
C. Wang pressed the red button when she became blind after the high-G training.
（ ）59. What advantages does a female astronaut have according to Wang
a. More patience.
b. Less weight.
c. More problem-solving skills.
d. Better ability to deal with loneliness.
A. ad B. ab C. bc
（ ）60. What can we learn from Wang's story
A. Never too old to learn.
B. Well begun is half done.
C. Nothing is difficult if you put your heart into it.

How to Keep Safe
Do you know that many dangerous things will happen if we are not careful
enough As a student, how to keep safe is very important.
First, we should obey the traffic rules. When the lights are red, we shouldn’t cross
the road. And we shouldn’t ride the electric bicycles. Second, we shouldn’t swim in
the river because it’s dangerous. We can go swimming with our parents in a
swimming pool. Third, we shouldn’t tell strangers our ID number or code when we
are surfing the Internet. We shouldn’t surf unhealthy websites. What’s more, we
shouldn’t go out with friends without our parents’ permission. If we are in danger, we
can ask for help from our parents or teachers, even police.
After all, life is very important. We should learn something about self-protection
so that we can protect ourselves well.

Bray is a beautiful village. It's about fifty kilometers west of London. An
Englishman whose
name is Howard Bonnier opened a restaurant called The Palace there. Not many
people in Britain know his name yet. But he's already quite famous in France. This is
because he has written in
French magazines about almost all the best restaurants in France.
When Howard was a teenager, he often went to restaurants with his parents. He
liked doing this so much that he decided not to buy lots of clothes or games. Instead,
he used most of his money to visit France and eat in good restaurants.
When being asked if it's an easy thing to open a restaurant, he says no. It's
expensive to start his own restaurant. It's also much more difficult to cook for
customers than for his family. But he's sure he's done the right thing.
