Once there was a rich man who lived with his wife and child. He loved the child so much that he sent him to Oxford(牛津大学)for two or three years. At the end of the first year at the university, this young student came home. He wanted a change. And he also wanted to tell his parents about Oxford.
It happened one night when the father, the mother and the young student were sit- ting at supper. They had in front of them only two chickens. Just as they were about to begin eating, the father said, “My boy, I have spent a lot of money on you to send you to Oxford. Now I want to know what you have learned.” The son smiled and said, “Father, I have studied a science which can prove that these two chickens on the plate are really three chickens.” “Well,” said the father, “This is something I would like very much to know.” “There are two chickens on the plate,” said the student. He took one of the chickens in his hand and said, “Here is one more; and one and two makes three. So here are three chickens.” Then the father took one of the chickens to him-self, gave the other to his wife, and said,"I shall have one of the chickens myself, your mother will have another, and you can have the third for your supper and nothing else.” The father kept his word and so the student went without his supper.

A 90-year-old tortoise (乌龟) is going twice its usual speed after being equipped (装备) with a set of wheels. The animal, called Mrs T, was facing a terrible future after losing her two front legs in a mouse attack while she was sleeping in winter, but her owners glued the wheels onto her shell (外壳).
“She’s going double the speed she used to,” said the owner Jude Ryder, “She uses her back legs to push herself along and seems quite happy.”
The 58-year-old owner was surprised when she went to check on her loved pet last month and found her front legs had been eaten in the mouse attack. The local animal doctor tried his best to save Mrs T. But he was afraid that the tortoise would not survive without being mobile. After paying £1,000 for the treatment, Mrs Ryder turned to her son Dale for help. Dale designed the front wheels and used resin (树脂) to add them to the front of the shell. Mrs Ryder said: “She liked them immediately, but she must learn how to turn and stop. She can get a good speed up, much faster than before. Mrs T is still quite young for a tortoise. She could go on for another 50 years. All she needs is a new set of tyres (轮胎) sometimes.”
When Mrs T was sixty years old, she was bought as a pet for Dale, an 8-year-old boy. It liked running happily in Mrs Ryder’s garden in spring and summer. When winter came, Mrs T slept in the garden shelter. A mouse got in last month and chewed (咬) off both her front legs. Mrs Ryder said: “We were afraid she would be sure to die, but her new set of wheels have saved her life. She can run in the garden again and we can always find her because she leaves very strange footprints behind wherever she goes.”
Mice attacking tortoises is not uncommon around us—in 2013 Britain’s oldest tortoise died after a mouse attack. The tortoise called Thomas was 130 when he was bitten at his home in Guernsey. He spent five days on strong antibiotics (抗生素), but the wound became so infected (被感染的) that his owner had no choice but to have him put to sleep.

d. The local animal doctor tried his best to treat Mrs T.
e. Mrs T was bought as a pet for Dale when she was sixty.
A. e-a-b-c-d B. a-b-c-d-e
C. a-e-b-c-d D. e-a-d-b-c
4.What can we learn from the passage?
A. Mrs Ryder is able to move much faster than before.
B. Tortoises attacking mice is not uncommon around us.
C. The animal doctor added the front wheels to the shell.
