So, I decided to go to sea, although my parents were strongly against it. On my first voyage, a storm hit our ship. The waves were huge, like mountains. The ship was in great danger, and I was extremely frightened. I truly regretted my decision then. However, the sailors were experienced. They worked hard to keep the ship safe, and finally, we reached land safely. After that, I made several more voyages. Each time, I experienced new things.

And a little later you added: You know, it is very nice to see the sunset when you are sad. For me, the sunset of that evening forty-four times, I knew that you were very sad that day... But you said nothing to me. I lived my little half-alone life. There was nothing in the desert, only sand and a few plants. I was sitting there, feeling very lonely, when suddenly I heard a strange little voice: "Please — draw me a sheep!" I jumped to my feet, completely thunderstruck. I blinked my eyes hard. I looked carefully all around me. And I saw a most extraordinary small person, who stood there examining me with great seriousness. Here you may see the best portrait that, later, I was able to make of him. But my drawing is certainly very much less charming than its model. That, however, is not my fault. The grown-ups discouraged me in my painter's career when I was six years old, and I never learned to draw anything, except boas from the outside and boas from the inside. Now I stared at this sudden apparition with my eyes fairly starting out of my head in astonishment. Remember, I had crashed in the desert a thousand miles from any inhabited region. And yet my little man seemed neither to be straying uncertainly among the sands, nor to be fainting from fatigue or hunger or thirst or fear. Nothing about him gave any suggestion of a child lost in the middle of the desert, a thousand miles from any human habitation. When at last I was able to speak, I said to him: "But — what are you doing here?" And in answer he repeated, very slowly, as if he were speaking of a matter of great consequence: "Please — draw me a sheep..." When a mystery is too overpowering, one dare not disobey. Absurd as it might seem to me, a thousand miles from any human habitation and in danger of death, I took out of my pocket a sheet of paper and my fountain-pen. But then I remembered how my studies had been concentrated on geography, history, arithmetic, and grammar, and I told the little chap (a little crossly, too) that I did not know how to draw. He answered me: "That doesn't matter. Draw me a sheep..." 1. Why did the author see the sunset forty-four times one day? A. Because he loved the sunset very much. B. Because he was very sad that day. C. Because he wanted to count the times of the sunset. D. Because he had nothing else to do. 2. What did the author hear when he was sitting in the desert? A. A strange little voice asking him to draw a sheep. B. The sound of the wind blowing the sand. C. The noise of some animals in the desert. D. The voice of someone calling for help. 3. Why was the author thunderstruck when he heard the voice? A. Because he didn't expect to meet anyone in the desert. B. Because he was afraid of the strange voice. C. Because he thought it was a ghost. D. Because he was in a bad mood at that time. 4. Why did the author say he couldn't draw? A. Because he was too lazy to draw. B. Because he had never learned to draw. C. Because his studies had been concentrated on other subjects. D. Because he didn't have the right tools to draw. 练习二-《夏洛的网》节选 Fern loved Wilbur more than anything. She loved to stroke him, to feed him, to put him to bed. Every morning, as soon as she got up, she warmed his milk, tied his bib on, and held the bottle for him. Every afternoon, when the school bus stopped in front of her house, she jumped out and ran to the kitchen to fix another bottle for him. She fed him again at suppertime, and again just before going to bed. Mrs. Arable gave him a feeding around noontime each day, when Fern was away in school. Wilbur loved his milk, and he was never happier than when Fern was warming up a bottle for him. He would stand and gaze up at her with adoring eyes. For the first few days of his life, Wilbur was allowed to live in a box near the stove in the kitchen. Then, when Mrs. Arable complained, he was moved to a bigger box in the woodshed. At two weeks of age, he was moved outdoors. It was apple-blossom time, and the days were getting warmer. Mr. Arable fixed a small yard specially for Wilbur under an apple tree, and gave him a large wooden box full of straw, with a doorway cut in it so he could walk in and out as he pleased. "Zuckerman's always raising a pig for sale," said Mrs. Arable. "But Fern can have her pig as long as she takes care of it. It won't be long before he's sold, though. He's a runt. It's not a big pig." Wilbur didn't understand what Mr. and Mrs. Arable were saying. He didn't know that Mr. Zuckerman was hatching a plan to sell him. And he made no trouble, lying quietly in his box, taking his meals, and growing bigger and stronger day by day. One warm afternoon, Fern and Avery, Fern's brother, arrived home from school. Avery put on his bathing suit and went down to the brook to swim. Fern ran to the barn to see Wilbur. She found the piglet in the yard, busily exploring the shed. Fern's approaching footsteps were music to his ears. When she came into view, he squealed joyfully, and trotted to meet her. "Hello, Wilbur!" she said. "Hello, Fern!" he answered, his voice high and clear. Fern picked him up and kissed him. Then she sat down on the floor with him and took a bottle from her pocket. 1. How often did Fern feed Wilbur? A. Twice a day. B. Three times a day. C. Four times a day. D. Five times a day. 2. Why was Wilbur moved outdoors at two weeks of age? A. Because Fern didn't want it to live indoors. B.
