“Should I stop?” She said to herself. “If I stop, I’ll never catch up.” Finally she decided to help Pinky Pig go on skating.

Farmer John and Farmer Bob were neighbors. For more than 30 years, they were getting along very well.
Then their good relationship (关系) broke. It began with a small thing, then bitter (仇恨的) words, and then weeks of silence. One morning Farmer John woke up to find a stream (小溪) between the two farms. “It must be Bob,” John thought.
Then one day there was a knock on John’s door. He opened it to find a carpenter (木匠) standing at the doorway.
“I’m looking for a few days’ work,” the carpenter said.
“I do have a job for you,” John said. “Look across the stream at that farm. That’s my neighbour Bob. He dug (挖) a stream between the two farms. I want you to build a fence (栅栏)—an 8-foot fence. I don’t want to see his place or his face any more. I don’t have such a neighbour!”
The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and I’ll be able to do a job that pleases you.”
About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer’s eyes opened wide. There was no fence there at all!
It was a bridge! And the neighbour, Bob, was coming across, with his hand outstretched (伸出). “Hi, John! You’re quite a guy to build this bridge!”
Then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hands. “I’m terribly sorry for what I have said and done. We should be good to each other,” said Farmer Bob.
Then they turned to see the carpenter, who was ready to go. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I have a lot of other jobs for you,” said Farmer John. “I’d love to stay,” the carpenter said, “but I have more bridges to build.”
62. Why did farmer John think that Farmer Bob dug the stream?
A. Because they were neighbors. B. Because their good relationship broke.
C. Because they were getting along very well. D. Because they never had bitter words with each other.
63. Farmer John asked the carpenter to build a fence because _________.
A. he wanted to protect his farm B. he didn’t want to do it himself
C. he wouldn’t like to see Bob D. he wanted to find him something to do
64. What does the sentence “You’re quite a guy to build this bridge!” mean?

If you think you are too shy and want to be a little braver, just try the following things:
Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.
Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too, and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.
Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a conversation(谈话), say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will become relaxed and find it’s not so hard to talk with others.
Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say “Hi” or smile at someone say to yourself “You can make it.” Keep trying and one day, you’ll never feel shy when you talk to others.
76. How many suggestions(建议) are mentioned in this passage?
________________
77. What will happen when people get to know you are a shy kid?

Molly Mouse, the smallest skater, almost could not see the starting line (起跑线). Everyone thought she was too small to win. Happy Lion, the biggest skater, was ready to race, too. Pinky Pig and Lazy Cat couldn’t wait because both of them almost won last year.
The skaters lined up, the flag (旗帜) came down, the skaters took off.
Thump! Faster and faster Happy Lion skated down the street, and he was winning! Suddenly, his skate hit the curb (路牙) and fell to the ground. The other skaters raced past him.
Lazy Cat came first now while Pinky Pig unluckily landed on sand (沙地), wasn’t hurt but dizzy (晕的). He tried hard to catch up but failed. Molly Mouse was the last skater to come around the corner.
“Should I stop?” She said to herself. “If I stop, I’ll never catch up.” Finally she decided to help Pinky Pig go on skating.
Around the next corner was a path which went up a high hill. “Skating uphill is hard,” Lazy Cat said. “The other skaters might catch up with me.” She thought for a while and turned the sign. The arrow (箭头) now pointed (指向) right. Lazy Cat laughed as she she skated up the path to the left. All the other skaters turned right and started skating down the hill.
“Come back,” Molly Mouse shouted. “You went the wrong way!”

Farmer John and Farmer Bob were neighbors. For more than 30 years, they were getting along very well.
Then their good relationship (关系) broke. It began with a small thing, then bitter (仇恨的) words, and then weeks of silence. One morning Farmer John woke up to find a stream (小溪) between the two farms. “It must be Bob,” John thought.
Then one day there was a knock on John’s door. He opened it to find a carpenter (木匠) standing at the doorway.
“I’m looking for a few days’ work,” the carpenter said.
“I do have a job for you,” John said. “Look across the stream at that farm. That’s my neighbour Bob. He dug (挖) a stream between the two farms. I want you to build a fence (栅栏)—an 8-foot fence. I don’t want to see his place or his face any more. I don’t have such a neighbour!”
The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and I’ll be able to do a job that pleases you.”
About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer’s eyes opened wide. There was no fence there at all!
It was a bridge! And the neighbour, Bob, was coming across, with his hand outstretched (伸出). “Hi, John! You’re quite a guy to build this bridge!”
Then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hands. “I’m terribly sorry for what I have said and done. We should be good to each other,” said Farmer Bob.
Then they turned to see the carpenter, who was ready to go. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I have a lot of other jobs for you,” said Farmer John. “I’d love to stay,” the carpenter said, “but I have more bridges to build.”
62. Why did farmer John think that Farmer Bob dug the stream?
A. Because they were neighbors. B. Because their good relationship broke.
C. Because they were getting along very well. D. Because they never had bitter words with each other.
63. Farmer John asked the carpenter to build a fence because _________.
A. he wanted to protect his farm B. he didn’t want to do it himself

Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.
Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too, and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.
Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a conversation(谈话), say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will become relaxed and find it’s not so hard to talk with others.
