Answer the questions (根据以下内容回答问题)

There once was a king who wanted to find the answers to what he considered the three most important questions in life. The three questions are : when is the right time for every action, who are the most important people , and what is the most important thing to do? The king consulted learned men, promising he would richly reward anyone who could answer the questions, but their answers didn’t satisfy him. In the end, he decided to visit a wise hermit who lived in the woods. The hermit would speak only with common people, so the king put on simple clothes.

When he got close to the hermit’s hut, he ordered his bodyguards to wait behind. He approached the place and found the hermit digging. He asked the wise man his three questions, but the hermit didn’t respond. Seeing how old and weak the hermit was, the king began helping him dig. The king dug for hours, but the hermit never answered his questions. Just as the king was about to leave, a wounded man came running to the hut and fainted before them. Then the king carried the wounded man to Hermit’s hut and took care of him. The king was exhausted and fell asleep as well. When he awoke, he talked with the man, who said that he had wanted to kill the king but was wounded by his bodyguards. He asked for forgiveness and promised to serve the king faithfully.

Afterwards, the king went outside and repeated his questions to the hermit once more. The hermit replied, “If you had not helped me dig earlier, you would have left and been killed by the man. So, the most important man back then was me, and the most important time was when you were digging. The most important thing to do was to be kind to me. When the wounded man arrived, he was the most important person, and saving him was the most important thing. By doing so, you made peace with an enemy.”

The king finally had his three answers. The most important time is the present, as it’s the only time we have the power to act. The most important person is the one you are with, and the most important thing is always to 92

Choose the best answer (根据以下内容,选择最恰当的答案)

It happens to all of us. It is the end of the semester and your teacher gives you your report card. You look at it and your heart stops because you realize that your parents are going to be very angry. This is the classic case of a bad report card! There is nothing you can do to change the past. So, what do you do now?

A disappointing report card is something that almost all students will experience at least once in their lives. Grades are how most schools evaluate(评价)students and they are pretty important. The problem is that we do not always get good grades we (or our parents) want. After a bad report card, it is important to figure out what to do next.

The first thing to do is talk to your teacher. Find out how your grades were calculated. Was the problem a bad test, lack of participation(参与)in class, or a failure to complete homework? Next, if the problem is something you can solve on your won (such as not doing your homework), make a promise to change your behaviour! However, if you have been studying hard and still got a bad grade, you probably need some extra help with your classes. Talk to your teacher and explain your situation. He or she will tell you where you can receive the extra help you need. Then, make a detailed plan of how you will improve your grades. Write down the plan and have it ready when you take to your parents. That’s good way to make your parents less angry.

While all parents want their children to get good grades, most understand that not every report card will be perfect. The important thing is that you show your parents you have a plan to improve your grades for next time. Always remember, many of the world’s most successful people failed many times before they became successful. They learn ed from their failures, and you should too!

1.What is the problem with the grades?

A.Most schools evaluate students by using grades. B.It’s important to get good grades.

C.We don’t always get good grades we want. D.Grades are sometimes incorrect.

2.Which of the following is not a cause of a bad report card?

A.There was something wrong with the test itself. B.You studied hard enough for the test.

C.You didn’t take part in enough group work in class. D.You failed to finish your homework.

3. is a good way to make your parents less angry.

A.Telling your parents the test was too difficult for you

B.Understanding all parents want their children to get good grades

C.Showing your parents you have a detailed plan to improve your grades

D.Explaining why you couldn’t complete your homework on time

4.The underlined work “your situation” in the text probably means “ ”.

A.You had no idea about how your grades were calculated.

B.You have made a promise to change some bad behaviour.

C.You have been studying hard, but you still got bad grades.

D.You have had a detailed plan to improve your grades.

5.Why does the writer mention(提及)”successful people” in paragraph 4?

A.to compare successful people with unsuccessful people

B.to describe whether they had good grades or bad grades

C.to encourage students to become successful like those people

D.to explain that even successful people fail from time to time
