Even though I just had lunch not long ago, I was felling hungry again. I went to the kitchen to look for something to eat. That was when I discovered the pudding in the fridge. It was made from milk, sugar, eggs and fruits, and it looked so yummy. I noticed that there was only one left.

I was putting the pudding on a plate when my brother came into the kitchen. He found the pudding and asked for it. “It’s mine! I was the only one who found it!” I shouted. “You are my elder brother, You should give it to me!” said he. Then he started pulling the plate towards himself and I did the same.

Suddenly, the plate moved to one side and the pudding slipped (滑动) out of the plate. It landed on the floor and turned into a yellow mess. My brother and I both looked at each other, feeling amazed and disappointed at the same time. It was such a waste!

To my surprise, Ollie, our pet dog, walked over to the mess on the floor. It began to lap up the pudding happily, Within minutes, the mess on the floor was gone. Ollie licked (舔) its lips when it was done.

After watching Ollie finishing the whole pudding by itself, we realized _____ . If both of us had shared the pudding, we would both have got to eat half of it. It was because of our greed (贪婪) that we ended up with nothing. That day, my brother and I learnt a good lesson.

Many of you have heard a Cinderella (灰姑娘) story, but you may not know that there are over a hundred different ways to tell the Cinderella story. When writers tell the same story in a different way, it is called their “version” of the story. The story of Cinderella has many different versions. Let’s read two of them and find out how they are different.

The version that most people know is the oldest one written in 1697 by Charles Perrault from France. This is the version where the birds help make Cinderellas’s dress and the mice turn into carriage men (马车夫) and help Cinderella go to the dance in a pumpkin (南瓜) carriage. In this version, many of the animals are Cinderella’s friends. They help her meet the Prince. Cinderella marries the Prince and they live happily together ever after.

In another version of this story written in the 1850s by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm from Germany, the birds help Cinderella in the whole story. Cinderella’s father gives her a little tree when he comes back from a party. She plants the little tree and her tears water it until it grows into a tall tree.

The birds now live in the tree and they give Cinderella a dress of gold and shoes of gold. Cinderella goes to the party to meet and dance with the Prince. Later, he finds Cinderella at home doing work for her stepmother (继母). Cinderella marries the Prince and they live happily ever after.

Now you can understand what the word “version” means and how more than one writer can tell a story in a different way. That is why there are many versions of the same story.

【1】In the story written in 1697, ________ helped make Cinderella’s dress.

A. her father B. her stepmother

C. the birds D. the mice

【2】In Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm’s story, Cinderella’s father ________.

A. gives her some birds

B. gives her a little tree

C. makes a gold dress for her

D. makes gold shoes for her

【3】The Chinese meaning of the word “version” in this passage is probably “________”.

A. 人物 B. 语气

C. 方法 D. 版本

【4】If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?

(①= Para. (自然段) 1 ②= Para. 2 ③= Para. 3 ④= Para. 4 ⑤= Para. 5)

A. ①; ②③④; ⑤ B. ①②; ③; ④⑤

C. ①②; ③④; ⑤ D. ①; ②; ③④⑤
