试卷题目
1.  Deep in the forest lives David, who loves books. As soon as he reads one book, he brings home (1)      . Soon the house (2)       books. His wife, Alice, is angry. "You (3)       do something!"
  David thinks hard and has (4)       idea. "I can bring my books into the faraway hills and share (5)        I have with the children."
  Every week, David sets off across the countryside to faraway villages with his two donkeys. Early (6)        a sunny morning, David and his donkeys stop at a river (7)      . Then, from deep in the shadows, a bandit (山贼) jumps out! "Please let us pass," David says. "The children (8)      ." The bandit takes one book and shouts, "Next time I want (9)       !"
  They move on until at last, David sees some houses below. The children run to meet (10)      . David reads them story first. (11)       the story ends, it's time for everyone to choose a book. The children hold their books close as they say good-bye and run home (12)      . David and his donkeys head back, over and around the hills, and into the sunset.
  At home, Alice feeds her hungry husband and the donkeys. But then, instead of (13)      , David picks up his book, (14)       reads deep into the night. And far away in the hills, candles and lanterns burn as the children read borrowed books deep into their night, (15)      .
2.  One sunny morning, when Zebra (斑马) visited the river for a cool drink, he heard a tiny voice. "Help me, Zebra!"
  Zebra looked around and found Wasp (黄蜂) (1)       in a spider web in a thornbush (荆棘丛). Carefully, Zebra reached into it, but the thorns (2)       him. "Ouch!" Zebra stepped back and was leaving.
  "Please help me," said Wasp. "One day I will (3)       your help."
  Zebra laughed. "I'm fast and strong. Besides, I have a big family. Why would I need help from a (4)       wasp?"
  "Please try one more time," Wasp said. Zebra knocked at the web again. (5)      , this time it was enough to free Wasp. "Try to stay out of trouble," Zebra said. "I might not be nearby the next time a spider gets (6)       ." Then he left.
  All day, Zebra stayed with his family until he noticed his favourite fruit - some berries! The hungry Zebra ran to (7)       the berries.
  Wasp was resting in the bushes when she saw Zebra. She also found Lion hiding quietly ahead. If Zebra got too close to Lion ...
  Thinking quickly, Wasp flew down and gave Lion a sudden sting. The (8)       lion cried. "Roooooaaar!" Zebra heard the loud cry. In a second, he turned around and ran back to his (9)      .
  A moment later, Wasp flew around Zebra's head. "Try to stay out of trouble," Wasp said with a (10)       . "I might not be nearby the next time a lion gets hungry."
3.  "Amy! Milk!" Mama called.
  Milk. It was Amy's turn to get it. Amy sighed and shut her first-aid (急救) book.
  Amy tied the cow close to a tree. Somewhere down the mountain, some volunteer doctors were teaching medical skills to village nurses. Amy heard Betty drive off hours ago. "She should have taken me with her. She thinks I'm too young," Amy thought. "But she's wrong. I am already 15!"
  Amy carried the milk back to Mama, then wandered up the road. Roy, a village boy, was trying to stand on a horse's back. "No wonder they don't trust kids with anything important,"Amy thought.
  She had just turned away when she heard a heavy fall and a few cries. Roy was on the ground. "Roy!" The kids nearby ran towards him. "Get Betty," one said. Amy shook her head. "Betty's gone to the city."
  The kids didn't know what to do. Amy ran to Roy and saw one of his legs out of shape. A broken leg! She remembered what the first-aid book said about it.
  "Victor!" Amy called to one of the boys. "Go get Roy's mama, and find someone with a truck." She turned to the others. "Give me your shirts. We need something to tie his leg with."
  Amy then found a strong, straight stick. She carefully wrapped the shirts around Roy's leg and the stick. Roy cried out in pain. "I know it hurts," Amy said softly. "But this will hold it still until you get to the hospital."
  When Amy was done, she looked up and saw Roy's mama and a man watching beside a truck. "Thank you, Amy," Roy's mama said. Amy helped them lift Roy into the truck, then they drove down the hillside towards the hospital.
  The next day, Betty came to Amy's home. "I heard what you did," Betty said. "You kept your head in an emergency. That's an important skill."
  Amy's face turned red. "I was afraid ..."
  Betty shook her head. "It's OK for a nurse to be afraid, as long as she has a clear head. The volunteer doctors are coming tomorrow with vaccines. We need some more hands. Can you help?"
  "I'd love to." Amy replied at once.
  "Come early, then. There is a lot to learn."
Amy smiled. "I'll bring my first-aid book."
4.  How would you like to build a time machine? Paper, sticks, glue and string are all you need. Put them together to build a kite. A kite connects you to the past.
  No one knows who flew the first kite. It was probably someone in China or perhaps Indonesia. Indonesian fishermen hung fishhooks on kites and sent them out to sea to catch fish. Starting 2000 years ago, Chinese farmers flew kites to welcome the New Year and bring good luck to Earth.
  In China, people also used kites during wartime. One Chinese story tells how soldiers put noise makers on kites and flew them at night over the enemy camp. The enemies were frightened by the noise and ran away.
  About 1300 years ago, Chinese travelers took kites to Japan. Soon kites filled in the skies there. Kites reached Thailand about 700 years ago. During floods, Thai farmers flew kites over their fields. They hoped the kites would drive away the clouds and stop the rain. Over time, kites flew their way out of Asia. Today, kites are a passion all over the world. Kite fans meet at festivals in many parts of the world and have great fun.
  Over the years, Kites have also helped people understand the natural world. In 1749, for example, thermometers were tied to kites to measure temperatures. In 1906, cameras hanging from kites took pictures of San Francisco, California after an earthquake. The photos helped people plan what to do.
  Kites also helped inventors find out how to make airplanes. The Wright brothers studied how kites flew, which helped them make the first successful airplane.
  Since the ancient Chinese first set their kites into the air, people have loved flying kites. Kites give us ways to celebrate, relax and explore. So go fly a kite! Enjoy the feeling of wonder that kite flyers have felt for centuries.
5.  What will astronauts (宇航员) eat when a space trip takes years?
  "Lots of fresh vegetables," says Dr. Janet Williams, whose team have spent the last 10 years learning how to grow plants in a space station. And it's a good thing that she has already started her work, because space gardening can be really hard.
  As usual, astronaut George White looked into the closed plant room. He had planted Dr. Williams's quick-growing seedlings in it, but none of the stems were showing. He opened the room to check and found the problem. The stems weren't growing upward and the roots weren't growing downward. On Earth, gravity (重力) helps a plant's stems and roots to find "up" and "down". However, in the space station, there was almost no gravity.
  Dr. Williams suggested a solution: give the plants more light, as plants also use sunlight to find their way. And it worked. When the plants had more light, the stems turned up and the roots went down.
  Now Dr. Williams was free to worry about the next problem: Would her baby plants live to flower? Can we grow food on a space journey?
  Many plants died in the space station. Dr. Williams thought she knew why: the space plants were hungry for air. Plants live by taking up CO2 from the air. Since a plant uses it up in the air around, the plant needs moving air to bring more CO2 close to its surface. On Earth, the air is always moving. Gravity pulls down cold air, and warm air rises. And with these air movements, plants get enough CO2.
  Many earlier experiments with plants in space had used closed rooms. Dr. Williams tried a new greenhouse that had a fan to keep the air move. The plants loved it. They flowered and even produced more seeds. Using Dr. Williams's method, astronaut George completed the first seed-to-seed experiment in space, and moved one plant closer to a garden in space.
  "And this," says Dr. Williams, "is good news for long-term space travel."
6. Storytelling
  Storytelling has caught the human imagination for thousands of years. People everywhere have told stories to amuse, to teach, to remember, and just to pass the time. People started telling stories long before writing was invented. (1)       But people all over the world still tell one another stories out loud. A person who can tell a good story nearly always finds listeners.
  Before people developed writing, storytelling was the most important way to pass along information. Anything a culture wanted to protect — its beliefs, its history, and its traditions — had to be told out loud. Each generation would tell the culture's stories to the next. (2)       Knowledge passed on in this method is called the spoken tradition. Even cultures that know how to write still pass along some information in this way.
(3)       In other cultures only special storytellers were trusted to do this important job. A culture's best storytellers had good memories. They could also make the stories very interesting, so people would listen and remember them. Sometimes people would sing the stories or tell them in the form of poems. (4)      
However, stories told aloud change over time as different people tell them. A storyteller might change a story in order to make it better. Or a teller may simply not remember all the details of a story. Unlike written stories, the spoken tradition is not created by any one person. (5)       Sometimes the stories are collected and written down long after they have been created.

B. In some cultures everyone would pass along the stories.
C. Songs and poems can both make stories easier to remember.
D. Instead, a whole culture helps shape the changing stories throughout history.
