D B 一 二 三 四 五 六 D（2022·宿迁泗洪县月考） For hundreds of years， Hans Christian Andersen’s magical tales have made children happy with stories of icy queens， lonely mermaids and foolish emperors（愚蠢的皇帝）. In many stories， Andersen used ordinary situations and magical settings to teach life lessons to young readers. A tiny girl grows from a flower， a butterfly tries to marry a flower and many more stories. 一 二 三 四 五 六 Many of the stories in Andersen’s Fairy Tales are about appearances. Whether it’s a proud emperor and his clothes that can’t be seen， an ugly duckling（丑小鸭） trying to fit in with others that look different or a mermaid that wants to fit in with humans on land， the meaning of the appearance plays a large role in many of Andersen’s tales. Too much pride in one’s appearance doesn’t turn out well for most of Andersen’s characters. In this excerpt（节选） from The Little Mermaid， the witch（女巫） takes away the mermaid’s voice in exchange for human legs. The following is excerpted from the book： 一 二 三 四 五 六 “I am willing to help you， but are you willing to suffer（遭受） all this？” “Yes，” the little mermaid said in a trembling voice， as she thought of the prince and of gaining a human heart. “Remember！” said the witch. “Once you have taken the human form， you can never be a mermaid again. You can never come back to the sea.” “I shall take that risk（风险），” said the little mermaid， but she turned as pale as death. 一 二 三 四 五 六 “But you must also pay me！” the witch said， “and what I am asking for is not expensive. You have the loveliest voice of all those here on the seabed and you hope to enchant（使着迷） him with it， but you must give that voice to me. I must have the best thing you own for my precious drink！ I must give you my own blood for the drink， so that it can be as sharp as a double-edged sword（双刃剑）！” “But if you take my voice，” the little mermaid said， “what will I be left with？” “Your lovely form，” the witch told her， “your gliding movements and your eloquent eyes. With these you can easily enchant a human heart.” 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　C　）42. What do Andersen’s tales have in common？ ① Happy children. ② Ordinary situations. ③ Magical settings. ④ The meaning of appearances. ⑤ Happy endings for characters. A. ①②③ B. ①③⑤ C. ②③④ D. ③④⑤ C 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　B　）43. What does the underlined word “trembling” mean？ A. Peaceful. B. Fearful. C. Hopeful. D. Doubtful. （　D　）44. What risk made the little mermaid turn as pale as death？ A. Having eloquent eyes. B. Losing her loveliest voice. C. Getting a double-edged sword. D. Being unable to go back to the sea. B D 一 二 三 四 五 六 （　A　）45. What may happen to the little mermaid at the end of the story？ A. She may lose her loveliest voice and can never return to the sea. B. She may not listen to the witch because she doesn’t want to leave the sea. C. She may ask her sisters for advice and then she will make a final decision. D. She may be killed by the witch because the witch wants the best thing.
