They were disputing which was the better animal。Look at my strength, said the elephant. I can pull up a tree, roots and all, with my trunk“Ah! But your skin is not nearly so thick as mine, replied the crocodile. No knife or tooth can cut through it.”Just as they were coming to blows, a lion happened to pass.My dear friends ! said the King of all animals, going up to them. Let me know the cause of your disagreement。”“Will you kindly tell us which is the better animal? cried both at once. Certainly, said the lion, pointing across the river. Do you see the soldiers metal hat on that wall?”“Yes! replied the beasts.“Well, then, continued the lion, go and get it, and bring it to me, and I shall be able then to decide between you.”Upon hearing this, off they started, The crocodile, being used to the water, reached the opposite side of the river first, and was soon standing beside the wall.Here he waited till the elephant came up. The elephant, seeing that the crocodile had no way of reaching their goal, raised his long trunk, and took down the hat quite easily.They then made their way together back again across the river. The elephant was trying to keep up with the fast-moving crocodile in the water and became careless. When he was forced to turn sharply to avoid a floating tree branch, the elephant dropped the hat and it fell to the river bottom The crocodile noticed the accident, so down he dived, and brought it up in his huge mouth. They then returned, and the crocodile laid the metal hat at the lions feet. The King took it up, and turning to the elephant, said:“You, because of your size and trunk, were able to reach the hat on the wall but, having lost it,you were unable to get it back. And you, said the lion to the crocodile, although unable to reach the hat, were able to dive for it and save it. You are both wise and able in your own ways. One is no better than the other.”26.

By listening to the lion(B)They say thattravel is the best teacherand there is no better example of this idea than the Ming dynasty travel writer and geographer Xu Xiake (1587-1641). His book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake, not only encouraged a love of travelling among Chinese people but provided important scientific information about the countrys land and geography.Born into a wealthy Jiangyin family, Xu became interested in books about different places at anearly age and wanted to travel. When he was 18, however. Xus father died and so, it seemed, did his travelling dreams. He now was responsible for the family farm and taking care of his 60-year-old mother as tradition required.But his mother had different ideas. Understanding her son,s love of travel and valuing the knowledge he could get from such experiences, this modern-thinking woman refused to keep her son at home. She agreed that Xu could travel for three months every year, when there was less farm work.So at the age of twenty and with his mothers support, Xu set off for the first time, leaving behind not only his mother but his new wife as well. He would repeat this goodbye each year for most of the next 30 years. During this time, he travelled throughout the Ming kingdom, carefully studying the lands he passed through and recording his experiences and many discoveries in a diary This diary, which once had over 500,000 words, would eventually become The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake.Although rich, Xu avoided comfortable travel, preferring to go almost everywhere on foot. This way he could research the environment in detail and get a true picture of the natural world. Many of his trips were to hard-to-reach mountain areas, and through wild forests where few people lived. His willingness to face hardships came at a cost however. Progress was slow and tiring and he was frequently sick, robbed and beaten during his journeysSadly Xu became seriously ill during his last and longest journey, a 4-year trip through the Southwest of China. He died in 1641. soon after returning to his hometown for the last time. When his diary was finally printed years after his death, much of it had been destroyed or lost. Although incomplete, it still made Xu a travelling legend around the world.31. What is the passage mainly aboutA. The general details of Xu Xiakes life storyB.

Let us know your view.CommentsMuseums are not only there for enjoyment; they are education. This is why they must be free. While museums need a huge amount of money to operate, let the wealthy pay for it. The idea of a person or child interested in art not being able to view it because of cost is wrongKrista Chen(US)-Age 15Free entry does not attract people or encourage them to appreciate art. Generally people respect things that are difficult or costly to get Museums should require regular visitors to pay a fee, but provide free tickets as prizes for high-achieving students who can appreciate them moreFred Smith(New Zealand)-Age 14Museums teach people about their past. This is part of our shared culture that should be available to everyone, rich or poor People should never be asked to pay an entrance fee.Rob Sanchez (Australia)-Age 17There are no simple answers. Low ticket prices could help museums stay open.But companies and businessmen should also provide museums with more money and other support. They have a social responsibility too.Amber White (UK)-Age 16I think museums and art galleries should all be free to the public. I do, however,think twice a year the museums should organize money-raising events to help pay for the cost of staying open.Li Mishao(China)-Age 1536. How many readers support the idea of free museums?A.2.B. 3C.4D.537. Who suggests museums should regularly hold special events to collect money?A. Krista Chen. B. Fred SmithC. Rob SanchezD. Li Misk38.

Students will then study harder.B Museums will attract more visitorsC Museums can make themselves more famousD. These students can better appreciate museums39. Which of the following does Amber White agree with?A Businesses should offer museums more helpB People should only pay what they can affordC Free entry doesnt encourage visitors to museumsD. Everybody should have a chance to visit museums40. What can we know about the website?A Its quite a new websiteB. It was started in AustraliaC Its generally for young readersD. It mainly discusses scientific topics(D)While the start of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some students at White Cloud Primary School. They became the worlds first kids to be by an electronic teacher. This electronic teacher is not a human-like robot walking around the classroom Instead, he is a computer-created head that appears, when needed, on students computer or phone screens. His name is Bill.Created by technology company Smart Machines, Bill is able to show human-like behavior. He is designed to teach a special program about environmental-friendly power created by the sun and wind. This program, started in 2005, used to be taught by human teachersJust like human teachers, Bill is able to immediately respond to the students questions and opinions about the topic. Thanks to computer cameras, he is also able to see and react to students physical actions. For example, if a student smiles at Bill, he responds by smiling back. This two-way exchange helps get the students attention. More importantly, it allows the program developers to improve Bills behavior and knowledge base when neededThe program has been a great success, according to Smart Machines spokesman Robert Frost Frost says, What is interesting to me is the childrens reaction to Bill. He really captures their attention. Frost thinks kids dont find the experience of being taught by smart machines as strange as older people because they have grown up
