There wasn’t enough wine for all the guests, so he decided to have a snake drawing competition. The first person to finish drawing a snake on the ground with a stick would get the wine. One man was the first to finish his drawing. Seeing that others were still busy, he thought he had enough time. So, he started adding feet to his snake. Just then, another man finished his snake drawing. The second man said, “Snakes have no feet. What you drew isn’t a snake, so the wine is mine.” And he drank the wine. The man who added feet to the snake felt very upset. This story teaches us that doing unnecessary things can break a good result. The idiom (习语) “Drawing a Snake and Adding Feet” is used to describe actions that are overdone (做得过火) and end up making things worse. 21. The rich man had the snake drawing competition to test the guests’ drawing skills. 22. The first man who finished drawing the snake drank the wine. 23. The second man got the wine because his snake looked more beautiful. 24. The idiom “Drawing a Snake and Adding Feet” means doing things that are not necessary and making the situation worse. 25. We should know when to stop and not overdo things according to the story. 第二节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 根据短文内容，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Pets have truly become an important part of people’s lives, bringing endless joy and warm companionship (陪伴).

Last year, I had a quarrel with my best friend over a misunderstanding. For days, we avoided each other until I decided to talk openly. Through honest conversation, we realized our mistakes and reconciled. This experience taught me that love grows when we dare to express our feelings. In daily life, conflicts are inevitable, but communication can turn them into opportunities for deeper connections. A simple “thank you” or “I’m sorry” can warm relationships. Let’s remember: where words flow, love follows. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
