But there are 1apples that are especially important to the history of our human beings and they have changed the whole world.Long long ago when the world just started, apple was a forbidden(被禁止的) fruit in the Garden of Eden, however, a girl named Eve stole and ate it. Unfortunately, she was discovered by God, and was driven away from the Garden together with a boy called Adam. After they left the garden, Adam and Eve had their own babies and became the ancestors(祖先) of all of us. This is the 2of our world.In the Autumn of 1665, there was a young man sitting under an apple tree in his garden. His name was Newton. While he was thinking of one problem, suddenly, an apple dropped down from the tree and fell on his head. 3this, Newton discovered gravitation(引力) on that day and his new idea of science made people really surprised and happy, also he changed our opinions about nature and the way we think, then people began to 4what science was at that time.And today, Jobs Steve, this crazy old man changed the world by his apple products. For example, iPhones can be found 5in the street. Young people feel cool when they use this kind of new high-tech(技术) product. Dont you think that apple products have become a symbol of our time?

Unless 三、 阅读理解。 (共3题；共45分)17. （10分）阅读理解There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn to not judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away. The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall.When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. The second son said no - it was covered with green buds and full of promise. The third son disagreed, he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen. The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but one season in the trees life.He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, and that the essence of who they are - and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life - can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.If you give up when its winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall. Dont let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest. （1）From the last paragraph we learn that we _.
