She heard some people complain (抱怨) that no lucky things happened to them. To solve the problem, Goddess of Luck put a big stone (石头) in the middle of the road. A student passed by. He thought he was too young and weak to carry the big stone, so he walked away. An old man came, but he thought he was too old to move the stone away. He turned around and left. Then a businessman (商人) came. When he started to get the stone away, he thought no one would pay him for doing that. He went away without saying a word. The stone stayed there for days. One late evening, a young man came by and saw it. He thought it was so dark that someone might fall because of it. He worked hard and finally moved the stone to the side of the road. To his surprise, he found a box under the stone. There were some words on the box. It said, “To the person who moved the stone.” The box was full of gold (金子). When the student, the old man and the businessman heard it, they all cried. How sad they were! Just at that moment, Goddess of Luck told them, “None of you moved the stone, so you didn’t get my lucky gifts.” 6. What did Goddess of Luck hear when she visited the world? A.

We should be kind. C Many teens do not value (重视) the importance of working hard and aren’t interested in doing so. According to a study (研究) of nearly 3,000 students, only 22 percent of primary and middle school students help with everyday chores around the house. This is not good news. We’ll finally grow up someday, leaving our parents and facing difficulties in life. Parents may not be able to work out every problem for us. Instead, we should have enough life skills to deal with the problems in our lives. This is what our country is trying to do now—helping more students get hardworking spirit. To make the students of different ages know the importance of hardworking spirit education (劳动精神教育), the State Council (国务院) made a guideline (指导方针). The guideline calls for students to respect (尊重) work. Students should learn basic life skills and develop good working habits through such education. Schools and parents play an important role in teaching students about the value of working hard, the guideline says. Primary and middle schools should provide students with hardworking spirit classes every week, according to the guideline. Schools can also hold activities to give students real-world working experience. For example, schools can teach children how to plant trees on Tree-Planting Day. As children’s first teachers, parents should also encourage (鼓励) children to learn how to do chores at home. Students should learn one or two life skills every year. These skills can include cooking, washing their own clothes and cleaning their rooms. 11. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. A study. B. The importance of working hard. C. The result of a study. D. Everyday chores around the house. 12. Match the place or people with the correct information. ①The State Council a. provide hardworking spirit classes and hold activities ②Schools b. encourage children to learn to do chores ③Parents c. learn basic life skills ④Students d. made a guideline A. ①-d ②-a ③-b ④-c B. ①-d ②-b ③-a ④-c C. ①-a ②-d ③-c ④-b D. ①-a ②-c ③-b ④-d 13. The guideline was made in order to ________. A teach students how to do chores at home B. help students solve life problems C. ask students to depend on parents D. help students get hardworking spirit 14. Which of the following life skills is NOT mentioned in the passage? A. Cooking. B. Washing the dishes. C. Cleaning the rooms. D. Washing the clothes. 15. What’s the best title for the text? A. Doing Housework Is Good for Kids B. Doing Housework Makes Kids Happy C. Doing Housework Is Easy for Kids D. Doing Housework Keeps Kids Healthy D Susan Cain was a shy girl.
