If you like unusual places, you should visit the Hebrides Islands. Not many people live on these islands in the northwest of Scotland. The land is not good for farming. It’s only good for keeping sheep (绵羊). The winters are long, cold, and wet. It’s hard to make a living on the Hebrides, but for a visitor, these islands can be very special.
They’re not for everyone. Even summer days are cool and often windy. The water is too cold for swimming. There are only a few trees and green fields. Instead of fields, there are just rocks and small plants. The hills, too, are just piles of rocks. Sometimes the view (风景) looks like pictures of the moon.
But there is beauty in this place. From the beach you can often see all the ways to the rocky hills. From the hills you can see far out to other islands and the open ocean. The colors, too, are special. Blue is everywhere. It’s in the sky and in the ocean. In the spring there is also green in the hills. In the summer and winter the hills are more purple.
On these islands you can forget about the rest of the world. The evenings are quiet. The restaurants close early, and there isn’t any nightlife. Visitors stay at a guest house or a Bed. This is the best way to learn about life on the islands. The islanders are often friendly, and they like to talk.
If you want to meet islanders, you can also try the pubs (酒吧) or even the shops. People are in no hurry here. They like to chat about the weather or the fishing.
Do not come to the Hebrides for shopping. Come to walk in the clean, cool air. Come for the quiet beauty and for the views.

My interest in Chinese food started many years ago, when I had my first job. I was a young reporter for the Daily Journal in San Francisco. Our office wasn’t far from Chinatown. I usually managed to arrange my time so that I could go there at least two or three times a week for a good meal.
The first time I ever ate Chinese food I loved it. And since then, it just tastes better and better to me. The first thing I noticed was the fresh tastes of the meat and vegetable. When I learned more about the food, I began to understand why it has this special feature.
About 5000 years ago, China lost much of its wood because of over population and poor management of its forest. This loss was very bad for the country, of course, but it turned out to be very good for the food. Wood became very expensive and hard to get, so the Chinese had to learn how to use it better.
In order to use less wood in cooking, they started to cut their meat and vegetable into small pieces before they put them in the hot oil. That way, the food cooked faster and they saved their fuel. The food prepared in the manner kept its fresh flavor(风味)--- and its this flavor that attracts people to the art of Chinese cooking.
I often wonder if the Chinese appreciated their solution to that ancient energy problem as much as I do now --- whenever I eat Chinese food.
小题1:This passage is mainly about ___________.
A.why Chinese food tastes fresh
B.what Chinese food tastes like
C.how Chinese food is cooked
D.what makes Chinese food special
小题2:The author got to know Chinese food _______________.
A.when he worked as a reporter in China
B.from a news story in the Daily Journal
C.after he got a taste of it in the Chinatown

小题3:The author thought the Chinese cut meat and vegetable into small pieces in order to _____________.
A.keeping its fresh flavor
B.saving their hard –to-get wood
C.producing a different kind of food
D.attracting westerners to their food
小题4:The word “ fuel” in the 4th paragraph most probably means ____________.
A.fresh flavorB.meat and vegetable
C.hot oilD.firewood
小题5:According to the passage, the special freshness of Chinese food is the result of _______________.
A.the wood used to make the cooking fire
B.the fast speed at which it is cooked
C.the high quality of Chinese meat and vegetable
D.the well –developed art of Chinese cooking

One day a man found a cocoon(茧) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly made its great effort to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.
So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling (爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.
The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid(流体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be ready for flying. It must have a hard struggle (拼搏) to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been; we could never fly.
小题1:What was the butterfly doing at the beginning of the story ?
A.It was trying to make a cocoon for itself.
B.It was struggling to get out of its cocoon.
C.It was flying among the trees in the forest.
D.It was crawling around quietly on the ground.
小题2:The man cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon
A.to take the butterfly home
B.to help the butterfly come out easily
C.to kill the butterfly
D.to stop the butterfly growing bigger
小题3:What do you think of the man?
A.Patient but cruel.
B.Careful and wise.
C.Kind but unwise.
D.Brave and funny.
小题4:What does the last paragraph(段落) tell us?
A.Struggles are sometimes necessary in our life.
B.Nothing is difficult if we put our heart into it.
C.Every good deed will come back with good result.
D.The greatest happiness in the world is to help others.
小题5:What is the best title for the story?
A.The Love for the Cocoon.
B.The Joy of Helping Each Other.
C.The Lesson of the Cocoon.
D.The Expectation for the Butterfly.
