    There once lived in China a very foolish king and queen. One day the queen had a baby daughter. When they saw their baby, they both cried out, “My goodness! How small it is! It’s hairless and toothless! It’s a monster!” They sent for all the doctors in the country and ordered them to prepare some medicine for her.
    “When she drinks your medicine, she must grow to the right size and have hair and teeth,” the king said, “If you don’t do this, you’ll have a beating.”

Just then and old doctor stepped forward. “Oh, we shall certainly obey your order,” he said, “but it takes time. We have to dig a mineral from the KunLun Mountains when the snow melts for the second time. The snow melts on those mountains only once in six years. we need twelve years.”

    Prana, our beautiful dog whose name means ‘breath of life’, isn’t with us any more. But she brought such joy and love that we still miss her.

    There are so many wonderful stories about the love in this dog, but my favorite is this one.

    It was an autumn day in Minnesota, but the weather didn’t know the difference between autumn and winter. Unexpectedly, we were hit with a big snow fall for which no one was prepared.

    We have two apple trees in our backyard. Prana loved apples. When she went outside, she’d take hold of an apple, put it far back in her mouth, and sneak into the house to save for eating later. The apples had been on the ground and were often dirty so I wasn’t always happy that Prana had brought them into the house. Feeling my displeasure, she would turn her head so I wouldn’t see her hidden treasure.

    On the day that it snowed too early in the season, Prana went outside and I watched her from the window. I noticed that she was madly digging holes and brought the apples to the surface so they could be seen above the snow. I wondered why she was doing this. She seemed to be completely busy with some kind of important task to dig up as many apples as possible during her yard time.

    When I called her back into the house, she had her usual one apple in her mouth. About five minutes later, I looked outside. The yard was completely covered with birds. Prana had dug up all those apples for her bird friends to eat. She knew that they wouldn’t have stored enough food to live through such an early winter.

    1.The story about the dog happened _______.

    A．in autumn         B．in winter          C．in spring          D．in summer

    2.What does the underlined phrase sneak into mean in the fourth paragraph?

    A．enter quickly       B．enter secretly      C．enter happily       D．enter slowly

    3.Prana was busy digging up the apples in the snow because________.

    A．she liked digging holes and eating apples

    B．she was always saving the apples for eating later

    C．she wanted to leave the apples to her bird friends

    D．she loves playing with snow

    4.From the story we can learn that______.

    A．Prana is helpful to the writer

    B．Prana is devoted to the writer

    Thinking is something you choose to do as a fish chooses to live in water. To be human is to think. But thinking may come naturally without your knowing how you do it. Thinking about thinking is the key to critical(批判性的) thinking. When you think critically, you take control of your thinking processes（过程）. Otherwise, you might be controlled by the ideas of others. Indeed, critical thinking is at the heart of education.
    The word “critical” here has a special meaning. It does not mean taking one view against another view, as when someone criticizes another person for doing something wrong. The nature of critical thinking is thinking beyond the easily seen--beyond the pictures on TV, the untrue reports in the newspapers, and the faulty reasoning.
    Critical thinking is an attitude as much as an activity. If you are interested in life and want to dig deeper into it, you are a critical thinker. If you find pleasure in deep thinking about different ideas, characters, and facts, you are a critical thinker.
    Activities of the mind and higher-order reasoning（推理）are processes of deep and careful consideration. They take time, and do not go hand in hand with the fast speed in today’s world: fast foods, instant coffee, and self-developing film. If you are among the people who believe that speed is a measure（尺度）of intelligence（智慧）, you may learn something new from a story about Albert Einstein. The first time Banesh Hoffman, a scientist, was to discuss his work with Albert Einstein. Hoffman was too nervous to speak. But Einstein immediately made Hoffman feel comfortable by saying, “Please go slowly. I don’t understand things quickly.” 
    【小题1】Critical thinking is important to us because if we do not think critically, _______.
    A．it will be hard for us to think naturally and fast
    B．we might be controlled by other people’s ideas
    C．we will follow the ideas of others naturally
    D．we might be fooled by other people’s ideas
    【小题2】If you are a critical thinker, you will ________.
    A．take one view against another view
    B．trust the reports in the newspapers
    C．think deeply about different ideas
    D．criticize other people for their mistakes
    【小题3】In the last paragraph, “something new” suggests that ________.
    A．speed can improve intelligence
    B．intelligence is not decided by speed
    C．the smarter you are, the faster you do things
    D．the faster you do things, the smarter you become
