His master put a bell about his neck so that the dog might give notice of his presence wherever he went. Thinking it a mark of distinction, the dog grew proud of his bell and went tinkling it all over the market-place. One day an old dog said to him, “Why do you make such an exhibition of yourself? That bell that you carry is not, believe me, any order of merit, but on the contrary a public notice to all men to avoid you as a bad-mannered dog.”B. A man once stood up at a market-place in the east and said, “I have been ordered by the king to collect all the well-born and well-bred and bring them before him, since he wishes to reward them.” Everybody that heard him joined him, and he went towards the palace, surrounded by the whole town. Then he suddenly turned round and said, “The king has just sent me word that he means to help only those that have been ill-born and ill-bred to make up for their misfortunes.” The crowd lingered behind for a while, and then one after another joined the man as ill-born and ill-bred to receive the kings gifts. The man said, “The world goes as the wind blows!”C. A lion was awakened by a mouse running over his face. Rising up angrily, the lion caught the mouse and was about to kill him, when the mouse begged, “If you would only spare my life, I would be sure to repay your kindness.” The lion laughed at the idea of the mouse being able to repay a favor, but let him go in the end. Later, the lion was caught by some hunters, who bound him with strong ropes to the ground. The mouse, recognizing the lions roar, came and gnawed the rope with his teeth and set him free.D. A fox had long been the dread of the village poultry yard. One day, he was found lying breathless in a field. The report went abroad that, after all, he had been caught and killed by someone. In a moment, everybody in the village came out to see the dead fox. The village cock, with all his hens and chicks, was also there, to enjoy the sight. The fox then got up and said, “I ate a number of hens and chicks last night. So I must have slept longer than usual.” The cock counted his hens and chicks, and found several chicks were missing. “Alas!” said he, “how is it that I do not know of it?” “My dear sir,” said the fox, as he ran back to the wood, “it was last night that I had a good meal of your hens and chicks, yet you did not know of it. A moment ago they found me lying in the field, and you knew of it at once.”E. A boy put his hand into a pitcher (大罐) full of nuts. He grasped as many as he could possibly hold, but when he tried to pull out his hand, he was prevented from doing so by the neck of the pitcher. Unwilling to lose his nuts, and yet unable to withdraw his hand, he burst into tears, crying with disappointment. A person who was passing by said to him, “Be satisfied with half the quantity and you will draw out your hand at once.”F.

I knew he would be just like the one he chose to be his friend.”参考答案6165 DBCFE*结束阅读理解 Jan. 7, 2008 - French President Nicolas Sarkozy would marry his girlfriend, former supermodel Carla Bruni on Feb. 8 or 9, media reported Monday. The report said that in December - less than a month after Sarkozy met Bruni - he gave her a heart-shaped diamond engagement ring. Carla Bruni, Italian singer, former model and girlfriend of Frances President Nicolas Sarkozy, holds the hand of her son Aurelien while wearing a pink heart-shaped ring during a visit to the ancient Jordanian ruins of Petra Jan. 5, 2008. French newspapers reported that Sarkozy would marry her early in February. Sarkozy and his wife of 11 years, Cecilia, divorced in October. Their marital（婚姻）problems became well known in May 2005 when she appeared in public at the side of event organizer Richard Attias. A marriage to Bruni, a one-time star of the catwalks who is now a singer, would be Sarkozys third: He divorced his first wife, Marie, in the late 80s - after he had met and befriended Cecilia. Political analyst Dominique Moisi said that a Sarkozy proposal to Bruni could be part of his desire to head off any future arguments, and the speed of their visit to the ancient Jordanian ruins of Petra Jan. 5, 2008 would fit with his personality as a busy man in a hurry. “Apparently, hes going to marry her, so the problem will be behind him,” Moisi said. “He will increase the opportunities to travel with her, and to say to the French, You see, I must remarry You need a first lady.” Bruni, an Italian-born French citizen, has dated famous men including Mick Jagger and Donald Trump. She has also reportedly been linked to singer Eric Clapton and actor Vincent Perez.68. What is the correct order of Sarkozys marital history?a. Long marriage to Cecilia b. Visiting ruins with Brunic.
