Once upon a time a king, in the company of his ministers, went to the imperial garden for a walk. When he was walking around a pond, a strange idea 26 upon him and he asked, “How many buckets(桶) of water are there in the pond?” The ministers looked at each other, 27 to give an answer.
Rather 28 , the king ordered, “You have three days’ grace. Any one who offers an answer will be handsomely awarded. Those who fail will be 29 .”
The time limit was due in the twinkling（闪烁）of an eye, yet the ministers were still at their wit’s end. At this time a child appeared who declared that he knew the answer. The king told his 30 ministers to go with the child for the measurement. To their 31 , the child refused the suggestion with a smile, “It is very easy. No 32 to go to the pond.” This made the king laugh 33 , “Alright, let us know what it is.” The child winked (眨眼) and said, “That 34 on the size of the bucket. If it is as big as the pond, there is one bucket of water; if it is half as big, two buckets; if one third as big, three buckets; if...”“Stop! That’s it. You’ve got the 35 .” The king was satisfied and the child was duly rewarded.
Why did the ministers feel it so different to settle the problem? Because they fell in a pitfall (陷阱), following a wrong way of thinking. People’s thinking often goes a habitual way — the beaten track of straightforwardness. 36 is a static (静态的) way presupposing every object definite and certain, i.e. the size of the pond and the bucket should be clearly 37 . If one of them is unknown, it will be difficult to do the measurement, let alone 38 . Why not change your mode of thought — from static to dynamic（动态的）, from concrete to 39 ? If you adopt an indirect way and try to find out the proportional relation between the pond and the bucket, you’ll get an answer — flexible yet 40 to solve the problem.
Sometimes to get out of the difficulty one must change one’s way of thinking, or simply change one’s approach towards a problem.

Tom was one of the brightest boys in the year, with supportive parents. But when he was 15 he suddenly stopped trying. He left school at 16 with only two scores for secondary school subjects. One of the reasons that made it cool for him not to care was the power of his peer(同龄人) group.
The lack of right male(男性的) role models in many of their lives — at home and particularly in the school environment(环境) — means that their peers are the only people they have to judge themselves against.
They don’t see men succeeding in society so it doesn’t occur to them that they could make something of themselves. Without male teachers as a role model, the effect of peer actions and street culture(文化) is all-powerful. Boys want to be part of a club. However, schools can provide the environment for change, and provide the right role models for them. Teachers need to be trained to stop that but not in front of a child’s peers. You have to do it one to one, because that is when you see the real child.
It’s pointless sending a child home if he or she has done wrong. They see it as a welcome day off to watch television or play computer games. Instead, schools should have a special unit where a child who has done wrong goes for the day and gets advice about his problems — somewhere he can work away from his peers and go home after the other children.
【小题1】Why did Tom give up studying?
| A．He disliked his teachers. |
| B．His parents no longer supported him. |
| C．It’s cool for boys of his age not to care about studies. |
| D．There were too many subjects in his secondary school. |
| A．Peer groups. | B．A special unit. |
| C．The student judges. | D．The home environment. |
| A．Wait for their change patiently. |
| B．Train leaders of their peer groups. |
| C．Stop the development of street culture. |
| D．Give them lessons in a separate area. |
| A．is with the boy alone |
| B．teaches the boy a lesson |
| C．sends the boy home as punishment |
| D．works together with another teacher |

I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. After all, I was a teenager girl, and I couldn’t bear people to look at me and think I was not like them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads, coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.
One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something,“I’m awfully sorry,”I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost. This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn’t stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.
Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.
But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; It seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.

2.After the girl got off the bus that evening, she_________.
|
A．began to run |
|
B．hit a person as usual |
|
C．hit a lamppost by accident |
|
D．was caught by something |
3.At the request stop that evening, the girl___________.
|
A．stopped a big lorry |
|
B．stopped the wrong bus |
|
C．made no attempt to stop the bus |
|
D．was not noticed by other people |
4.What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?
|
A．Other vehicles also stopped there. |
|
B．It was unreliable for making judgments. |
|
C．More lorries than buses responded to the girl. |
|
D．It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus. |
5.Finally the girl decided to walk to the next stop, hoping__________.

It is not a good idea to stop the actor Richard Griffiths in the middle of a play．During the past year he has stopped performances many times at the National Theatre when mobile phones rang, and he threw out one member of the audience because she failed to turn off her phone．
So when a mobile rang out for the third time during his performance in Alan Bennett’s The History Boys, he spoke angrily to the theatergoer （爱看戏的人）, “I am not going to compete with these electronic devices （装置）．”
Griffiths’ actions led to a debate in the UK theatre world over whether phones should be forbidden by law from British theatres, too．Actors have already asked the government to legalise （使合法化） the use of an electronic device that stops mobile phone signals in theatres．
Technology companies have “stopping” devices that send out a high-powered signal on the same frequency （频率） as a mobile phone, stopping the mobile phone signal．
However, these are forbidden in many countries because they might stop emergency calls from being made．
Rosemary Squire, president of the Society of West End Theatre, said, “Phones are one of the biggest problems theatres face．We should look at equipment that could stop phones or make a London-wide theatre rule．”
Nick Allott, the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh’s theatre group, said, “We would all welcome some ways of stopping ringing phones but doctors and emergency workers need to be connected in a theatre and we mustn’t stop that．” What can we do to solve the problem?
1.What can we infer from the second paragraph?
|
A．Surely Griffiths did better than mobile phones in the theatre． |
|
B．Griffiths didn’t want mobile phones to affect his performance． |
|
C．Griffiths was jealous that mobile phones attracted the audience’s attention． |
|
D．Griffiths taught theatergoers a lesson in the performance as a teacher． |
2.According to the passage, “stopping” devices ______．
|
A．have the same functions as mobile phones |
|
B．cause the biggest problem theatres have to face |
|
C．prevent the mobile phones signals from being received |
|
D．help doctors or emergency workers receive emergency calls |
3.According to Nick Allott, ______．
|
A．“stopping” devices can make the sound of mobile phones disappear |
|
B．no one except doctors and emergency workers should have mobile phones |
|
C．phones are one of the biggest problems theatres face |
|
D．stopping phones in theatres has some side effects |
4.What will probably be talked about following the last paragraph?
|
A．Griffiths’ next performance in theatres． |
|
B．The opinions the public has about the problem． |
|
C．The ways to solve the cellphone problem in public places． |
|
D．The side effects mobile phones have on people． |
