Here is a history which I heard from my father yesterday evening. One of his friends had recently   61     to the Himalayas, the famous mountain range(山脉)in the world. When he was    62    along the mountain paths, he met a few other   63   . Among them there was an old lady and her grandson. The small child admired the beautiful mountains. He said to his grandmother, “   64    nice these mountains are! Can we take them home, Grandma?” The old woman smiled and said, “Dear, if some child like you had    65    them away yesterday, would you have a chance to see them? Now if we take these mountains away today, then tomorrow, _66_    child will not have the chance to see these beautiful things. Don’t you think they are so nice  67_   everyone should see and enjoy them?

What a noble(高尚的) _68  ! Our lives become meaningful only when we learn the value of everything for _69  . Just as the saying goes, “The rich man is not the one who has the most, but one who needs the   70_ .” 

Joe and David were both mountaineers. As Joe was well experienced, he was always asking David to learn from him. "Want to stand on top of the world, David?" "Of course. It has already been my dream!" David answered.

On a sunny morning, the two men started for the top of a famous mountain. After they climbed over one of the most dangerous slopes (斜坡), they found a man lying in the snow. "He's going to die," David looked at Joe and said, as if he would help the man. "Leave him alone and just follow me! But if you bring the burden with you, I'm afraid that you'll lose your own life." Joe warned David. Then he turned around and walked forward alone. It was too cold, after thinking for a while, David made up his mind to help the man. He carried the man on his back and went to make his way. Little by little, David's temperature made the man warm. The man came to himself! And soon he could move all by himself. Together they moved side by side.

About two hours later, they caught up with Joe. To their surprise, they found that Joe was lying in the snow, too. He had been frozen to death!

Millions of stars are travelling about in space. A few form groups which travel together, but most of them travel alone.

And they travel through a universe which is so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For the most important part each star makes its journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well over a million miles from its nearest neighbour. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhere near it.

We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wandering(漫游) through space, happened to come near our sun just as the sun and the moon raised its tides(潮汐) on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on the surface of the sun. But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in our oceans; A large tidal(潮汐的) wave must have travelled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the cause of the disturbance came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before the star began to move away again, its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and thrown off small parts of itself into space.

These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets.

B. our earth exists before the sun

   C. no one knows where the earth comes from  

D. our earth used to be a high mountain in the sun

4.The expression “the cause of the disturbance” refers to ________.

   A. the large tidal wave            B. the powerful tidal pull

   C. the star coming near the sun     D. one of sun’s planets

   A. where the planets in the universe came from

   B. how the high mountains were formed on the sun

   C. that the universe is so large that we cannot imagine it

   D. why the tides over the surface of the sun were so powerful

 

In 1993 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney. He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney’s cartoon(动画片) film for children. When Walt Disney heard Nash’s voice, he said”Stop! That’s our duck!”

The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the firm The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat(水上住家) and wore his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star after an eight – minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy(贪婪的), and because he lost his temper (发脾气) very quickly. And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey’s eight nephews(侄子). Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn’t a goody-goody like Mickey.

In the 1930S, 40s and 50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared – there were no more new cartoons.

Clarence Nash died in February, 1985. But today’s children can still see the old cartoons on television and hear that famous voice.
