So, he gave up his job, his home, and his friends, and spent all his time guarding the cave.He was so devoted to it that he hardly ate or drank, and before long he fell ill. One day, when he could hardly move at all, he decided to share the treasure.He crawled into the cave to get a handful of jewels, but discovered, to his horror, that it was empty except for a small emerald (绿宝石). The man took it and gave it to the first person to come by, a woman.Then an old man came by. “What bad luck!” the man said. “Just a moment ago I gave a woman the last of the treasure I was guarding.”“Are you sure there is nothing left?” the old man asked. The man took him into the cave, where they found a chest with jewels and some bags of gold. The man was shocked, and the old man explained to him, “At last! At last! At last someone has broken the spell (咒语) of this cave. This is the Cave of Treasure, and youre the first to have passed its great test. Many have dedicated their lives to this cave, only to end up realizing there was nothing here ”“And why does this happen?” the man asked.“This magic cave has only as many riches as your own heart. When someone discovers it, the cave fills with the treasure they bring with them, but later, when they have devoted themselves to guarding the treasure, their hearts become empty, as does the cave. The only way to fill it is by filling your heart with all that is good, as you did by giving the woman that last jewel.”From that day on, the man understood that it was better to share than to keep.

However, he cannot take the credit for creating other well-loved characters, such as Cinderella（灰姑娘） and Snow White. They are almost automatically associated with Disney because Disney turned old fables (寓言) into cartoon movies.The original Cinderella varies very much from the Disney version we know today. It started off with the girl mourning her mothers death and going to her tomb three times a day. In addition, there were only birds that helped Cinderella; there was no such thing as a fairy godmother or helpful mice, nor was there mention of a horse and carriage.The stepsisters were cruel: they always threw Cinderellas food into the ashes of the fire and made her sleep on the ashes on the floor, hence（因此）her name.In the original story, the kings ball actually lasted for three days. With the help of the birds, the girl, beautifully dressed, danced with the prince on all three nights and the prince fell in love with her. However, she broke away from him to rush back home each night. On the last night, the prince placed something sticky on the stairs; as Cinderella made her escape, a shoe got stuck on it.Here now is where the story becomes unpleasant: when the prince went to the house looking for the girl whose foot fit the shoe, the wicked(邪恶的) stepmother told one of her two daughters to cut off her big toe to fit into the shoe. The daughter did so. So the prince took her away to be his bride. But，when they passed the tomb of Cinderellas mother, the birds called out to the prince,“Turn and peep, theres blood within the shoe; The shoe is too small, the true bride waits for you.” Realizing he had been tricked, the prince returned the daughter to her mother. The other then had to cut off part of her heel in order to fit into the shoe, with the same result. Only Cinderellas foot fit perfectly and so the prince chose to marry her. The story ends with the wedding day: as Cinderellas two stepsisters followed her, pretending to be devoted to her so that they could enjoy the kings riches, two birds flew by and plucked (啄) out their eyes. Because of their wickedness and falsehood, they had to spend the rest of their days blind.The original Cinderella is so different from the Disney version. Thank goodness Disney made such changes; it indeed was a wise move.25. What dose the underlined word “They” in the first paragraph refer to?A. Such wonderful things. B. Other well-loved characters.C. Old fables. D. Cartoon movies.26. How did Cinderella get her name?A. The birds came up with it. B. It was given by Disney.C. It came from the word “ash”. D. She got it from her mother.27. Which of the following is TRUE according to the original story?A. Helpful mice got Cinderella a beautiful dress.B. The ball was held to celebrate the princes wedding.C. Cinderella left her shoe on the stairs on purpose.D. The birds told the prince that he had been cheated.28. The moral (寓意) of the original story is that _.A. a wicked person cannot escape punishment. B. a devoted person certainly deserves respect.C. a well-behaved child earns a great reward. D. a dishonest child cannot get mother love.29. What does the author think of the Disney version?A. Excellent. B. Ordinary C. Dull. D. Ridiculous.CThe elephant was lying heavily on its side, fast asleep. A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety. That didnt stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess. Parbati Baruas father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up - how to catch wild elephants. Parbati hasnt always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life. “Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase,“ she says. But Parbati doesnt catch elephants just for fun. “My work,“ she says, “is to rescue man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man”. And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill. The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. “Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans,“ she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!30. Before Parbati studied in a boarding school, _. A. she spent her time hunting with her father B. she learned how to sing love songsC. she had already been called an elephant princess D. she was taught how to hunt tigers 31. Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge because _. A. they are caught and sent for heavy work B. illegal hunters capture them and kill them C. they are attacked and their land gets limited D. dogs often bark at them and chase them32. The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in India _. A. people easily fall victim to elephants attacks B. the man-elephant relationship is getting worseC. elephant tamers are in short supply D. dogs are as powerful as elephantsDIf doctors want to test you for something, theyll usually take a blood or urine sample(尿样). But wouldnt it be much more convenient if they just asked you to breathe through a special instrument?In fact, your breath can say a lot about you. In traditional Chinese medicine, doctors draw a conclusion about the health state of a patient based on the smell of his or her breath; trained dogs and rats can identify the smells of the breaths of people suffering from certain cancers; traffic police also monitor drivers alcohol consumption by testing their breaths.Just like blood and urine, your breath contains lots of “metabolites” the waste chemicals that the body produces, which vary from person to person. They are like personal health fingerprints, which is why scientists sometimes call them “breathprints”, according to Science Daily.Compared to blood or urine testing, breath testing takes only seconds instead of hours, and it requires neither a needle nor a container to hold the body fluids(液). This means the test can be taken frequently to better detect early signs of diseases and monitor the progress of a medical treatment.On the other hand, as an identifier（鉴定物）, you might think that breaths are not as reliable as fingerprints since they might change based on what you eat. However, researchers in Zurich, Switzerland mapped 11 healthy volunteers chemical patterns by having them breathe through a special instrument, and they found that each pattern was unique and the patterns didnt change much throughout the day, reported BBC.“Our goal is to develop breath analysis to the point where it becomes competitive with the established analysis of blood and urine,” said Malcolm Kohler, professor at the University Hospital Zurich.33. According to the text we know that_.A. breath varies from person to person based on food.B. your breath may give you away if you are not careful.C. doctors can test ones breath to find about his illness.D. trained dogs can identify people with certain cancers.34. In comparison with blood or urine testing, breath testing is _.A. comfortable and convincing. B. traditional and reliable.C. accurate and competitive. D. quick and convenient.35. What can we infer from the text?A. Breath testing is reliable and may have a bright future. B. Blood or urine testing will be less used in medical treatment.C. Doctors have found the best way to detect early signs of diseases.D. Traditional Chinese medicine is becoming more and more popular.第二节 (共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分) 据短文内容，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Dear Mr Ma,Lately our class has become worried about the environment at the back of the school, and wed like to do something to make it more attractive, We have done some research and have come up with a plan. 36 but we will need a small amount of money for equipment, plants and paint.
