试题分析：本篇是一则童话故事，叙述了一只老虎和一只狮子的故事。老虎和狮子同住一块岩石下，他们相互认识时由于年龄太小而不知道狮子和老虎之间的区别。所以他们并不认为他们之间的友谊有什么非同寻常。有一次老虎和狮子为了一件无所谓的事情进行了争吵，争吵愈演愈烈，甚至到了互相辱骂的程度。担心他们之间友谊会出问题，他们决定带着所争论的问题去请教博学睿智的森林和尚。在和尚的充满智慧的答复下，老虎和狮子又重归于好。故事告诉我们：不要因为小事而伤了朋友之间的友谊。
1.D 原词重现，下文有“lion”提示。不是“狐狸、鸡子或猴子”。
2.C 根据常识推断“因为年纪小，即太年轻而不知道”。 weak软弱；unforgettable难忘的；poor
贫穷；。
3.A 原词重现。下文“Fearing for their friendship, they decided to go to ask the learned forest ,”有提示。上下文意思是说“他们是太年轻了，以致于不知道狮子和老虎之间的区别。所以他们不认为他们的友谊是在所有中不寻常的。”故排除B项。relation关系；connection联系。
4.B上下文存在因果关系。这部分山区的安宁可能受住在附近的一位温和的和尚的影响的缘故。in turn反过来；according to根据；as to至于。
5.A live居住；survive生存；walk步行，走；move迁移。根据上下文分析“和尚”应该是“居住在附近”。
6.A原词重现，下文“The argument got stronger and stronger”有提示。不知什么原因，有一天，两个朋友陷入了愚蠢的争吵。decision决定；activity活动；conference会议。
7.C原词复现，与下题互为提示。happen发生；bear忍受；seem似乎。
8.B原词复现，与上题互为提示。Clean清洁，清楚；cool凉爽，酷；good好的。
9.D原词重现，上文“Everyone knows the cold when the moon wanes from full to new!”有提示。狮子跟老虎所说的正好相反。wonderful精彩的；fresh新鲜的；delicious可口的。
10.C上文说“争论越来越激烈”说明“谁也不服谁”。solve解决；compete与……竞争，比赛；convince说服，使信服；remind提醒。
11.B既然“谁也不服谁”说明他们对争论的问题“没有得出结论not reach any conclusion”。arrive到；cause引起，paint绘画。
12.D老虎跟狮子争吵得不可开交，“甚至(even)到了互相辱骂的程度”。far 远远地；ever曾经； yet还，也，仍。
13.A 原词重现，上文“possibly the influence of a gentle forest monk who lived nearby.” 有提示。Monk和尚；teacher老师；mother母亲；parent父亲或母亲。
14.C “hermit”是“隐士”的意思。根据常识用来形容“隐士”的最佳词汇是“peaceful(安静的)”。Kind友善的；different不同的；rich富有的。
15.A 对应上文“the lion and tiger bowed respectfully and put their question to him.”这儿应该用“answer(回答)”。speech演讲；comment评论，注释，意见，说明；remark评论，谈论。
16.C 老虎与狮子争论的问题是围绕“cold”和“moon”展开的。所以答案为C项。sun太阳；weather天气；day白天。
17.A whether...or无论是……还是；until直到；if 如果；when当……时候。
18.C 根据上文“Therefore, in a way, you are both right(从某种程度上说，你们俩谁都没有错)”说“谁被谁打败了(defeated)”的问题。reward酬谢，奖赏，报答；win赢；award授予，奖给。
19.B 根据下文“Unity is best by all means”的提示应该选“united(团结的)”。moved移动的，迁移的；interested感兴趣的；amused有趣的，好玩的。

Once upon a time a king, in the company of his ministers, went to the imperial garden for a walk. When he was walking around a pond, a strange idea 26 upon him and he asked, “How many buckets(桶) of water are there in the pond?” The ministers looked at each other, 27 to give an answer.
Rather 28 , the king ordered, “You have three days’ grace. Any one who offers an answer will be handsomely awarded. Those who fail will be 29 .”
The time limit was due in the twinkling（闪烁）of an eye, yet the ministers were still at their wit’s end. At this time a child appeared who declared that he knew the answer. The king told his 30 ministers to go with the child for the measurement. To their 31 , the child refused the suggestion with a smile, “It is very easy. No 32 to go to the pond.” This made the king laugh 33 , “Alright, let us know what it is.” The child winked (眨眼) and said, “That 34 on the size of the bucket. If it is as big as the pond, there is one bucket of water; if it is half as big, two buckets; if one third as big, three buckets; if...” “Stop! That’s it. You’ve got the 35 .” The king was satisfied and the child was duly rewarded.
Why did the ministers feel it so different to settle the problem? Because they fell in a pitfall (陷阱), following a wrong way of thinking. People’s thinking often goes a habitual way — the beaten track of straightforwardness. 36 is a static (静态的) way presupposing every object definite and certain, i.e. the size of the pond and the bucket should be clearly 37 . If one of them is unknown, it will be difficult to do the measurement, let alone 38 . Why not change your mode of thought — from static to dynamic（动态的）, from concrete to 39 ? If you adopt an indirect way and try to find out the proportional relation between the pond and the bucket, you’ll get an answer — flexible yet 40 to solve the problem.
Sometimes to get out of the difficulty one must change one’s way of thinking, or simply change one’s approach towards a problem.
1. A. fixed B. focused C. came D. looked
2.A. struggling B. thinking C. falling D. failing
3.A. disappointed B. excited C. pleased D. contented
4.A. killed B. punished C. blamed D. scolded
5.A. exciting B. amazing C. surprising D. trembling
6.A. doubt B. surprise C. envy D. delight
7.A. good B. use C. need D. wonder
8.A. wonderfully B. joyfully C. cheerfully D. doubtfully
9. A. decides B. depends C. calls D. looks
10.A. award B. reward C. answer D. number
11.A. This B. That C. It D. Such
12.A. marked B. measured C. signed D. known
13.A. another B. other C. one D. both
14.A. detailed B. easy C. simple D. abstract
15.A. acceptable B. available C. adequate D. proper

Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.
One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up.
As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.
As he got closer he called out, “Good morning! What are you doing?”
The young man paused, looked up and replied, “Throwing starfish in the ocean.” “I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?” “The sun is up and the tide is going out, and if I don’t throw them in they’ll die.”
“But, young man, don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it. You can’t possibly make a difference!”
The young man listened politely, then he bent down, picked another starfish and threw it into the sea, past the breaking waves and said, “It made a difference for that one.”
