I'm very glad to be here with you. I'm from Canada. I'm a news reporter. This is my first visit to China. I've looked around your city. I've visited many factories and schools and talked with the workers, teachers and students. All this has helped me to understand China better than before. I'm now writing a book about China. In the book I'm going to tell my Canadian readers what I've seen and heard in your country. I think my book will help Canadians to understand China and Chinese people so as to improve the friendship between our two countries.

A
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful bird, which was very curious about hell (地狱). When she was little, her mother always told her that if she didn't master the flying skills, she would go to hell. She was so curious about hell that she always asked others what hell looked like, but no one was sure, because none of them had ever been there. Some said hell was a place full of water, and others told her that hell was full of burning fire. However, the bird knew they were lying. She wanted to find out what hell was.
When other birds were learning flying skills, she always hid herself and watched them. She thought in this way she could go to hell and see what hell looked like. However, she spent so little time learning flying skills that one day she was caught by a little boy. The little boy gave her to his grandpa in the countryside as a gift. The old man liked her very much. He made a delicate (精致的) cage and put her in it. The bird was very worried because she thought she couldn't find out what hell was like staying in this small cage. However, she couldn't escape. Day after day, she just stayed in the cage, watching other birds flying. She lost her freedom and she became sadder and sadder. At last, she became ill. The old man finally opened the cage, but she was too weak to fly. Lying on the ground, she thought of the question that she ever asked all the time.
“What does hell look like？”
“Hell is a small well­decorated cage.” Before she closed her eyes forever, she finally answered that question herself.

During 70 years of marriage, Jack Potter has kept a diary. He had always taken notes about his days, but when he met Phyllis Clayson at a wartime dance in 1941, he had even more to write about. They fell in love with each other at first sight, and they have been together ever since.
Jack Potter was in the Royal Engineers at the time. When the dance ended, he couldn't wait to get back home and write, “It was a very nice evening. I danced with a very nice girl. I hope to meet her again.”
From that day on he kept brief notes of everyday events that happened in their life. They got married 16 months later. Then he worked in construction (建筑) and she worked as a typist.
They had no children but they had each other, and Jack Potter had his diaries. After 50 years of marriage, Phyllis moved into a care home because of dementia (痴呆). And that is where Jack Potter visits her every day.
Dementia may have robbed (使丢失) her of memories, but Jack Potter keeps them for her in his diaries. He reads them to her, shows her their photographs, and helps her remember the things they have done.
They have always been devoted to each other through these years of marriage, accepting whatever comes their way. She still meets him with open arms when he visits. He still reads her the memories her mind can no longer hold on its own.

C
One day a man found a cocoon (茧) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly made its great effort to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had got as far as it could and it could go no further.
So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened. In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling (爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.
The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid (流体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be ready for flying. It must have a hard struggle to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been; we could never fly.
28．What was the butterfly doing at the beginning of the story?
A. It was trying to make a cocoon for itself.
B. It was struggling to get out of its cocoon.
C. It was flying among the trees in the forest.
D. It was crawling around quietly on the ground.
答案与解析　B　一个人出于好心去挂念一只蝴蝶破茧而出，结果却事与愿违。害的这只蝴蝶永久不能飞行。一只蝴蝶破茧的时候要经过一段时间的“struggle”才可以振翅高飞。由此可知，故事的开头，蝴蝶正在挣扎着从茧中爬出来。B项正确。
29．What do you think of the man?
A. Patient but cruel. B. Careful and wise.
C. Kind but unwise. D. Brave and funny.
答案与解析　C　这个人好心办了坏事，C项正确。
30．What does the last paragraph tell us?
A. Struggles are sometimes necessary in our life.
B. Nothing is difficult if we put our heart into it.
C. Every good deed will come back with a good result.
D. The greatest happiness in the world is to help others.
答案与解析　A　从这个故事以及最终一段叙述可知，A项正确。
31．What is the best title for the story?
A. The love for the cocoon
B. The joy of helping each other
C. The lesson of the cocoon
D. The expectation for the butterfly
答案与解析　C　这是一个哲理故事。我们从这个故事中获得了一个道理：拼搏在生命中起着必要作用。C项最适合作本文标题。
