【題目】Two traveling angels(天使) stop to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the guest room. Instead the angels were given a space in the cold basement. As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, “Things aren’t always what they seem.”

The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor but very hospitable(好客的) farmer and his wife. After sharing what little food they had, the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night’s rest. When the sun came up the next morning, the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their only income, lay dead in the field.

The younger angel was very angry and asked the older angel, “How could this happen? Why didn’t you watch out for the cow? The first man had everything, yet you watched over his house,” she accused. “The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you didn’t help.”

“Things aren’t always what they seem,” the older angel replied. “When we stayed in the basement, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so greedy and unwilling to share his good fortune, I asked God if I could seal(封口) the wall so he couldn’t find it. Then last night as we slept in the farmer’s bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I asked God if the angel could take the cow instead. Things aren’t always what they seem.”

【1】Why did the old angel repair the hole for the rich family?

A. Because the basement was too cold to stay in.

B. Because she wanted to save the gold for the poor.

C. Because she wanted to punish the greedy owner.

D. Because she believed that one should always be ready to offer help.

【2】In Paragraph Two, “the pair” refers to ________.

A. the poor couple B. the rich couple

【題目】What do you usually do when a flying insect lands on your arm? You may blow it away. But what if that insect is a ladybug (瓢蟲)? It is possible that you would let it stay. What is it about ladybugs that we like?

Farmers once thought ladybugs were a good lucky sign. A ladybug in the field meant the crops would be successful and that the weather would be good. The farmers may have thought too highly of such a small bug, but in fact ladybugs do help out with the crops. They eat harmful insects.

Actually, it is not the adult ladybug that eats other insects. It’s the baby ladybug. When the baby ladybugs hatch (孵化), they are very hungry and will eat mites, aphids, mealy bugs, green flies, and other crop-destroyers. In the 1800s, ladybugs were brought all the way from Australia to California and set free among orange trees that were dying from being eaten by insects. They completely saved all the trees.

Ladybugs go about their daily business without worrying much about anything. Very few birds or insects will eat a ladybug because it gives off a dangerous fluid (液體). Ladybugs also protect themselves by playing dead. They fall off leaves and never move until their attacker goes away.

So the next time you see a ladybug, think about what it may be doing. Maybe it is off to save an orange tree. Maybe its next move will be to roll off a leaf and play dead orstand up toa bird about 100 times its size. Maybe it’s letting you know that the weather will be good tomorrow. Who knows? Ladybugs are special that way.

【1】Ladybugs were brought from Australia to California in the 1800s to .

A. add more ladybugs to area B. report the weather for farmers

C. act as a lucky sign of good crops D. save orange trees by eating insects

【2】From the passage we know that .

A. it’s the adult ladybug that eats most of the harmful insects

B. ladybugs often roll off a leaf and play dead to attack the birds

C. ladybugs can give off a dangerous fluid to protect themselves

D. the baby ladybug mainly eats mites, aphids, mealy bugs, and oranges

【3】The underlined phrase “stand up to” most probably means .

A. watch B. support C. save D. fight

【4】Which of the following may the author agree with?

A. Ladybugs do harm to nature. B. Ladybugs are unusual insects.

C. Ladybugs are dangerous insects. D. Ladybugs eat more than they should.
