    　　In a small town far away, a man stole some money from a house．The police began to look for the thief, and they found him in two days．They brought him to the police station and found some of the money in his coat．

    　　The policeman was glad．“I’ll have some food in the train,”he thought．“Be quick,”he said to the thief．“We haven’t much time．”

    　　The thief went into the shop, and the policeman waited in the street for a long time．But then he began to think about the train, and at last he went into the shop．

    　　“Where’s that man who came in here to buy some bread?”asked the policeman．

    　　“Oh, he went out of the back door,”said the shopkeeper．

    　　The policeman ran out of the back door, but he could not see the thief．He ran down the road but he could not find him．So he had to go back to the police station and tell the others about it．They were very angry with him and he was very unhappy．

    　　All the police of the town began to look for the thief again, and they soon caught him．They brought him back to the police station and called the same policeman．

    　　“Now,”said one of them angrily,“take him to the city, and don’t lose him again!”

    　　The policeman and the thief set out again along the same road to the station, and they came to the same shop．

    　　“Wait here,”said the thief．“I want to go into that shop and buy some bread for our journey．”

    Roy wasn't the only one to receive his call-up（入伍）papers．Stephen Napier's call-up came at the beginning of February and he was pleased to find that he would be going into the Royal Air Force (RAF)．
    His father was not so pleased and made his feelings known as he and Stephen were on their daily walk. It was the first step in his plans for Stephen to take over the estate（地产）when the time came, and although Stephen was well aware of this, he could think of no reason not to accompany him.
    "Thought you'd forgotten that nonsense. Still, I dare say I could pull a few strings to get you to the Army..."
    "No, Father! I have told you I want to learn to fly. What chance would I have to do that in the Army? I'd be better off in the Navy——at least they've got the Fleet Air Arm. But I have been put in the RAF and that's where I want to be, so let's leave it at that." His face went red. Sent to his father's school and then to Cambridge, much to his satisfaction, he had never had to defend his own desires and his father was a hard man to oppose.
    The father glared at Stephen, "No, I won't leave it at that. I want to know what other ridiculous ideas are in your head. For a start, what's all this about America?"
    "America?"
    "Yes. All those books I saw in your room the other day. Brochures about emigration（移民）．"
    The big, silvered head lowered, like that of a bull about to charge．"Don't trouble to deny it."
    "I won't, Father. Some men at Cambridge have been talking about it. They want people like us here, mathematicians and scientists, for all kinds of research——the sort of research I could do．It would be a worthwhile life for me."
    The father responded exactly as his son had known he would．"You've got a worthwhile life here！You've got an estate to run！"
    "No, Father. You've got an estate to run. I never asked for it. Why not ask Baden to do this stuff? He perhaps can make a good job of it, but I..."
    "If he were here, I might think about this silly idea of yours——only think about it, mind you but..."
    【小题1】If Father wanted Stephen to take over the estate, the first thing he did would__________．

    A．take a walk with Stephen as usual B．wait till his son graduated from Cambridge
    C．persuade Stephen not to go into RAF D．send Stephen to the Army instead of RAF
    【小题2】Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
    A．Stephen preferred to go into the Navy rather than the Army.
    B．Stephen also received his call-up papers as Roy.
    C．The father didn't like Stephen's idea of going to America.
    D．Stephen was eventually forced to stay to run the estate．
    【小题3】After reading this passage, we can infer that__________．
    A．Stephen had never had to defend his desires before
    B．Baden might be one of Stephen's family members
    C．Stephen wanted to fly in RAF and become a pilot in America
    D．if somebody took over the estate, Stephen could realize his dream
    【小题4】What do we learn from the underlined sentence?
    A．It looked as if the father was angry when mentioning the brochures.
    B．The father was very angry and wanted to beat his son Stephen．
    C．Stephen was annoyed when his father referred to the brochures.
    D．A big red bull was about to charge at Stephen.
    【小题5】Which would be the best title for this passage?
    A．RAF——a better choice than the Army B．A talk between Father and Son
    C．The dreams of a Cambridge student D．Conflict between Father and Son

    Hans was an honest fellow with a funny round good-humored face. Living alone, every day he worked in his garden. In all the countryside there was no garden so lovely as his. All sorts of flowers grew there, blooming in their proper order as the months went by, one flower taking another flower’s place, so that there were always beautiful things to see, and pleasant odors to smell.
    Hans had many friends, the most devoted being the Miller. So devoted was the rich Miller to Hans that he’d never go by his garden without plucking a large bunch of flowers or a handful of sweet herbs, or filling his pockets with fruits. The Miller used to talk about noble ideas, and Hans nodded and smiled, feeling proud of having such a friend.
    The neighbors thought it strange that the rich Miller never gave Hans anything in return, though he had hundreds of sacks of flour, many cows and sheep, but Hans never troubled his head about these, and nothing gave him greater pleasure than to listen to all the wonderful things about the unselfishness of true friendship.
    In spring, summer, and autumn Hans was very happy, but when winter came, and he had no fruit or flowers to sell, he suffered from cold and hunger. Though extremely lonely, the Miller never came to see him then.
    “There’s no good in going to see Hans while the snow lasts.” The Miller said to his wife, “When people are in trouble they shouldn’t be bothered. So I’ll wait till the spring comes when he’s happy to give me flowers.”
    “You’re certainly very thoughtful,” answered his wife, “It’s quite a treat to hear you talk about friendship.”
    “Couldn’t we ask Hans up here?” said their son. “I’ll give him half my meal, and show him my white rabbits.”
    “How silly you are!” cried the Miller. “I really don’t know what’s the use of sending you to school. If Hans came up here, and saw our warm fire, our good supper, and our red wine, he might get envious, and envy is a most terrible thing, and would spoil anybody’s nature. I am his best friend, and I’ll always watch over him, and see that he’s not led into any temptation. Besides, if Hans came here, he might ask me for some flour. Flour is one thing, and friendship is another, and they shouldn’t be confused. The words are spelt differently, and mean quite different things. Everybody can see that.” He looked seriously at his son, who felt so ashamed that he hung his head down, and grew quite scared, and began to cry into his tea.
    Spring coming, the Miller went down to see Hans. Again he talked about friendship. “Hans, friendship never forgets. I’m afraid you don’t understand the poetry of life. See, how lovely your roses are!”
    Hans said he wanted to sell them in the market to buy back his things which were sold during the hard time of the winter.
    “I’ll give you many good things. I think being generous is the base of friendship.” said the Miller. “And now, as I’ll give you many good things, I’m sure you’d like to give me some flowers in return. Here’s the basket, and fill it quite full.”
    Poor Hans was afraid to say anything. He ran and plucked all his pretty roses, and filled the Miller’s basket, imagining the many good things promised by the Miller.
    The next day he heard the Miller calling: “Hans, would you mind carrying this sack of flour for me to market?”
    “I’m sorry, but I am really very busy today.”
    “Well,” said the Miller, “considering that I’m going to give you my things, it’s rather unfriendly of you to refuse. Upon my word, you mustn’t mind my speaking quite plainly to you.”
    Poor Hans was driven by his friendship theory to work hard for his best friend, leaving his garden dry and wasted.
    One evening Hans was sitting by fire when the Miller came.
    “Hans,” cried the Miller, “My little boy has fallen off a ladder and hurt himself, and I’m going for the Doctor. But he lives so far away, and it’s such a bad windy night. It has just occurred to me that you can go instead of me. You know I’m going to give you my good things, so you should do something for me in return.”
    “Certainly,” cried Hans. He struggled into the stormy night, and got the doctor to ride a horse to the Miller’s house in time to save the boy. However, Hans got lost in the darkness, and wandered off into a deep pool, drowned.
    At Hans’ funeral, the Miller said, “I was his best friend. I should walk at the head of the procession.” Every now and then he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief.
    【小题1】From the passage, we can learn that Hans ___________.

    A．was extremely wise and noble
    B．was highly valued by the Miller
    C．admired the Miller very much

    B．“Interest is permanent while friendship is flexible.”
    C．“I’m afraid you don’t understand the poetry of life.”
    D．“I think being generous is the base of friendship.”
    【小题3】 From the Miller’s talk at home, we can see he was ___________.
    A．serious but kind
    B．helpful and generous
    C．caring but strict
    D．selfish and cold-hearted
    【小题4】What’s the main cause of Hans’ tragedy?
