阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages.
On the last day of one voyage, the ship was in a small port. It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain said to his sailors, "If one of you stays in the water during the whole night, I will give him my ship. But if he comes out before the sun appears, I shall get his wages."
The sailors had heard about the captain's cheating, so they didn't trust him. But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it. He got into the water, and, though it was very cold, he stayed in it. When it was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away.
"You are cheating," the captain said to the sailor. "The fire's warming you."
"But it's half a mile away!" said the sailor.
"A fire's fire," answered the captain. "I have won."
The sailor came out of the water, and said, "Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages, but you can't cook a chicken."
"I can," answered the captain.
"If you cook this chicken," said the sailor, "I shall work for you without wages for seven years, but if you can't, you will give me your ship."
The captain agreed, took the chicken and said, "Where's the fire?"
"There it is," answered the sailor. "On the shore."
"But it's half a mile away," said the captain angrily.
" A fire's fire, you said," answered the sailor. "If it is enough to warm me in the water, it is enough to cook your chicken."
21． The captain got the sailors' wages ________.
A. to buy a chicken for himself
B. and said he would return the money soon
C. and kept the money for future
D. by cheating him
22．The captain insisted that the fire was warming the sailor because he ________.
A. wanted to keep his promise
B. didn't believe the sailor's success
C. didn't want to lose the bet
D. wanted to show his cleverness
23． Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
A. In order to help the sailor in the water, the fishermen made a fire.
B. The sailors didn't trust the captain.
C. The captain failed to cheat the sailor this time.
D. The sailor didn't get out of the water before the sun appeared.
24．What is the best title of the story?
A. A Fire Is Fire
B. How a Sailor Got a Ship
C. A Brave Sailor
D. How a Captain Cheated His Sailor

It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver’s seat is another matter.
Road politeness is not only good manners, but a good sense. It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarreling and fighting. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behavior of politeness is by no means enough. Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. A typical example is the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.
An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in a traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings. Unfortunately, modern drivers can’t even learn to drive, let alone master the roadmanship (公路驾车技能). Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take (互谅互让) from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.
25．The passage mainly talks about ________.
A. traffic jams B. good manners
C. road politeness D. modern drivers
26．Troubles on the road are often caused by ________.
A. traffic jams
B. the behavior of the drivers
C. the great speed of modern life
D. terrible road conditions
27．According to the writer, a good driver should ________.
A. encourage children to cross the road whenever they want to
B. beat back when forced to face rude driving
C. be able to recognize politeness when he sees it
D. join in a traffic stream quickly however other people feel
28．It is not always right for drivers to ________.
A. master the roadmanship
B. neglect politeness when they see it
C. give a friendly nod in answer to an act of politeness
D. encourage old ladies to cross the road whenever and wherever they want to

The loneliest chimp(黑猩猩)in the world just got the best surprise------a hug from a new friend．Ponso has been by himself for nearly three years，finding himself alone after his wife and children died on the island where they were abandoned by a medical testing company many years ago．
For years a nearby villager named Germain has been Ponso’s only company，visiting him so often to bring bananas and bread—the chimp’s only source of food on the tiny island．It was clear how much Ponso missed companionship when he was recently visited by Chimpanzee Conservation Centre Director Estelle Raballand．The chimp immediately embraced Estelle Raballand in a huge hug and laughed as she reached out for him，with his smile from ear to ear．
For those who know Ponso’s backstory，his immediate ease and trust in humans might be surprising．Ponso was one of 20 chimps，all between the ages of 7 to 11 years old，relocated to an island off the Ivory Coast after being used for testing by the New York Blood Centre．After the tests were completed in 2005，the lab reportedly transferred the chimps to a string of islands，occasionally dropping off food and water because there was none in the chimps’ new homes．
Disease and hunger soon left only Ponso，his mate and their two children standing．But at the end of 2013 they died within days of each other and Ponso was now completely alone．
A group called SOS PONSO is trying to raise money for the poor lonely chimp，already achieving its goal of $20,000 - all of which will be used for Ponso’s care．
29．What do we know about the chimp Ponso?
A．He was deserted by his family．
B．He found many sources of food．
C．He came to the island for a test．
D．He suffers from loneliness greatly．
30．How did Ponso feel about the visit of Estelle Raballand?
A．Excited． B．Frightened．
C．Embarrassed． D．Confused.
31．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A．The chimps’ new settlement．
B．How Ponso came to the island．
C．Why Ponso was used for a test．
D．The medical test about chimps．
32．What can be inferred from the text?
A．Germain won’t visit Ponso any more．
B．A new lab will be built on the island．
C．Many people show concern for Ponso．
D．More chimps will be brought to the island．
