He read a letter by Zhuge Liang(181 234) to the emperor of Shuhan during the Three Kingdoms(220280) period in the new season of Growling Tiger and Roaring Dragon(虎啸龙吟)The letter has been read by so many students. We would never have thought that the text written in old Chinese could be so beautifully read in another language. As a result, foreigners begin to show interest in Rommance of the Three Kingdoms, translated bt C.H. Brewitt-Tailor and Robert E. Hegel. Earlier in November 1979, pupils in England were able to watch a new TV program called Monkey. Most of them were hearing the story for the first time. However, the story of the Mokey King isnt new to Chinese Children in the traditional Chinese book Journey to the West. As soon as the TV programme came out more than 30 years ago, western children became interested in reading this story because the clever Monkey King keeps fighting to help the weak and never gives up. Chinese scholars(学者) should do a better job of introducing Chinese literature(文学) to the rest of the world. At the same time, we could encourage western schools to try something different. Reading international literature is an effective way of understanding other people in the world. And the more we understand each other, the more beautiful the world will be.30 .

As we talked about what to do next, our daughter jumped in and told us exactly what they wanted to do. We agreed.As soon as we walked into the main area of the butterfly museum, we saw thousands of beautiful butterflies. They all flew with their colorful wings. My girls were jumping up and down, and I knew we had made the right decision to come to the museum. They were having so much fun.I turned to our guide (导游) and asked curiously(好奇地), “How long do butterflies live?”She said, “About ten days.”“What can butterflies do in ten days?”The guide stopped, looked at me, and said, “They make the world a more beautiful place.”After we said goodbye, I couldnt stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have something to offer（主动提供）the world with the time we have. If we spend the time doing what we can for others, we all can make the world a better place.35 .

Some people also feel it safe to follow a large number of people. In somerarecases it might be right to follow the crowd (群众), but in most cases this can be one big mistake. Ninety-five percent of people never succeed because they are following the wrong group. Actually there are reasons why we shouldnt follow the crowd blindly. According to a study, people tend to follow the crowd when they arent sure about the direction they should take. This means a large number of people could be following others without understanding whats right and whats wrong! This attracts more people to follow them and the result is that most people move in a certain direction even if it isnt right.A man who wants to be successful always hopes for others guidance and he usually follows the same path of most people, but the question this man never asks himself is: are all of those people successful? Of course not! If you want to follow a crowd, then follow a successful one. However, in real life youll only find one successful person among hundreds of people, and thats why following the crowd makes no sense at all.Most people act without thinking wisely. If you always follow others becausetheyre greater than you in number, then sooner or later youll discover that youremaking decisions you might regret later.However, should we never follow the crowd？No. Im not trying to say you should never follow the crowd, but instead Im just asking you to think wisely before you take a decision. If you find others are right, there is no problem in following them, but if you have doubts about the direction theyre moving in, dont follow them blindly.40 . What does the underlined word “rare” mean?AA small number of.BA large number of.CThe total number of.DThe same number of.41 . A man who wants to succeed should_.Afollow the crowdBfollow others guidanceCfollow a successful personDfollow the same path of most people42 . What is the passage mainly about?AWays of finding successful people to follow.BAdvantages of making a right direction.CExamples of not following others blindly.DReasons of not following others balindly.Bill Gates was born on October 28, 1955.
