I was reading these intriguing stories behind a group of great logos in the world. Personally Nike is my favorite one—it's so simple. And I liked the stories behind them, which made me forget all other things. McDonald's, Apple, Mercedes Benz and Adidas own great logos as well,and they are among my very favorites.
Nike
In the Greek myth, Nike is the goddess of victory and the source of inspiration for soldiers. This logo represents the wing in the famous statue of the Greek goddess. Nike's logo was designed by Carolyn Davidson in 1971 for $35,and was registered as a trademark in 1995.
McDonald's
The logo was designed in 1962 by Jim Schindler to resemble the archshaped signs on the side of the company's then walkup hamburger stand. Later on, the two golden arches were combined together to form the M.The McDonald's name was added to the logo in 1968.
Apple
There are different stories behind Apple's logo. The first logo was a reference to the religious story of Adam and Eve, in which the apple represented the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. One year later, the second logo was designed in 1977 by Steve Jobs and Ronald Wayne,and it described Sir Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree. This logo didn't stay long. One year later it was replaced almost immediately by graphic designer Rob Janoff's “rainbow apple”,a rainbowcolored silhouette(轮廓)of an apple with a bite taken out of it. And then the rainbowcolored apple was replaced by the onecolored logo in 1998. It has not been changed so far.
Mercedes Benz
The Mercedes Benz logo, which was originally created by Gottlieb Daimler in 1909, consists of a simple description of a threepointed star that represents its rule of the land,the sea and the air. The company was founded by Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach. Marcedes is the name of Maybach's elder daughter, while Benz came as a result of a combination with Benz,Cie. and DMG in 1926.
Adidas
The Adidas logo, which was created by the founder of the company Adi Dassler, represents mountains, pointing towards the challenges that are seen ahead and goals that can be achieved. The logo was used for the first time in 1967.
56.What does the author think of the stories of the great logos?
A. They are boring.
B. They are out of date.
C. They are attractive.
D. They are practical.
57.What does Nike's logo stand for?
A. The goddess of victory.
B. The source of inspiration for soldiers.
C. The statue of the Greek goddess.
D. The wing of the Greek goddess.
58.We can learn that Apple's present logo is ________.
A. the religious story of Adam and Eve
B. a bitten apple with only one color
C. Newton's sitting under an apple tree
D. the rainbowcolored bitten apple
59.Which of the following time orders describes the births of the great logos?
A. Mercedes Benz—McDonald's—Nike—Apple
B. Nike—McDonald's—Apple—Mercedes Benz
C. McDonald's—Apple—Nike—Mercedes Benz
D. Nike—Mercedes Benz—McDonald's—Apple

I ran into a stranger as he passed by. “I’m so sorry!” was my reply. Then he said, “Excuse me too. I wasn’t 36 watching for you.” We were very polite, this stranger and I. Then we went 37 our way after saying goodbye.
But at 38 , a different story is told. How we treat our loved ones, young and old. Later in the kitchen, as I 39 the meal, my daughter walked up to me, very still. When I turned, I 40 knocked her down. “Get out of the way!” I shouted with a frown (皱眉). She stepped away silently, with her little heart 41 . I didn’t realize how rudely I had spoken.
That night, when I lay 42 in bed, God’s quiet voice spoke to me and said, “While 43 with a stranger, you are calm and polite, but with those you love, you are quick to excite. Go to look around on the kitchen floor, you’ll find some flowers there by the 44 . Those are the flowers she brought for you. She 45 them herself — pink, yellow, and your favorite blue. She stood there quietly and you never saw the 46 in her eyes.”
By this time, I felt sad and small and now my own tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt (跪) by her 47 . “Wake up, my dear,” I said. “Are these the flowers you picked up for me?” She smiled, “I found them out by the tree, I 48 them in a napkin(纸巾), just for you. I knew you’d like them, especially the 49 .” I said, “I am so sorry that I missed them today. And I 50 have fussed (大惊小怪) at you that way. ”
And she whispered, “Mommy, that’s OK… I still love you 51 .” I hugged her and said, “I love you, too and I love the flowers.”
Do you know that: if you die tomorrow, the 52 you are working for could easily replace you in a matter of days. But the family you leave 53 will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into our 54 than into our families--- an unwise investment (投资) indeed.
Remember that 55 =" (F)ATHER" + (A)ND + (M)OTHER + (I ) + (L)OVE + (Y)OU.

A Little Hero
A group of Italian soldiers led by a captain were advancing slowly toward the position of the enemy. They arrived at a farmhouse, in front of which sat a small boy, cutting a branch of a tree with his knife.
"What are you doing here?" asked the captain. "Why didn't you leave with your family?"
"I don't have any family," said the boy. "I'm an orphan. I used to work for the family that lived here. They've gone, but I stayed in order to see the fighting."
"Have you seen any Austrians pass by here?"
"Not within the last three days."
"Do you think you could climb that tree and tell me whether you see anything of the Austrians in the distance?"
"Sure!"
In a few minutes the boy was at the top of the tree.
"Look straight ahead," cried the captain, "and tell me what you see."
"Two men on horseback - nothing else."
"How far away?"
"About a mile and a half. They're standing still." ….
"They're shooting at me," said the boy. "but don't worry. Let me tell you what's to the left. Well, there's a church and I think I see..."
A third bullet passed, and the boy was seen to fall suddenly from the tree, dead.
"Poor boy!" said the captain, covering the boy's body with a national flag and saying, "He died like a soldier and we must bury him like a soldier."
Soon it was covered with flowers. He gave his life to his country.

科目:高中英语 来源:2014届黑龙江省高一上学期期中考试英语题 题型:阅读理解
For years I wanted a flower garden. I spent hours and days thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together.
But then we had Matthew. And Marvin. And the twins, Alisa and Alan. And then Helen. Five children. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
Money was tight, as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I’d have to say, “Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn’t grow on trees, you know.”
Finally, all five children got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about having a garden.
I wasn’t sure, though. I mean, gardens do cost money, and after all these years I was used to living on a pretty poor, no-frills budget (预算).
Then, one spring morning, on Mother’s day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I realized that cars were tooting their horns as they drove by. I looked out of the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. I thought it must be a weeping willow, because I saw things blowing around on all its branches. Then I put my glasses on—and I couldn’t believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard!
I went outside to look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, tied all over the tree. Think of all the garden flowers I could buy with one hundred dollars! There was also a note attached: “IOU eight hours of digging time. Love, Marvin.”
Marvin kept his promise, too. He dug up a nice ten-by-fifteen foot bed for me. And my other children bought me tools, a trellis (绷架), a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books.
That was three years ago. My garden’s now very pretty, just like what I wanted. When I go out to weed or tend my flowers, I don’t seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they are right there with me.
I live up in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, where winters are long and cold, and summers are too short. But every year now, when winter sets in, I look out of my window and think of the flowers I’ll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes---every time.
I’m still not sure that money grows on trees. But I know love does.
1.By saying “Do you see a money tree outside?”, the mother actually means _____.
A. Observation is the best teacher B. Seeing is believing
C. The outsider sees the most of the game D. It is not easy to gain money
2.The underlined word “no-frills” in the fifth paragraph is similar in meaning to _____.
A. wasteful B. tight C. deserted D. helpful
3.From the last two paragraphs we can infer that the mother is _____.
A. divorced when she was young B. not caring for her kids any longer
C. alone but not at all lonely D. prouder with her garden than with her kids
4.The best title for the passage would probably be _____.
A. My flower garden B. Marvin helps to realize my dream
C. Love in Michigan D. Money grows on trees
