二、完形填空

Let me tell you a story. Long long ago there were     11     mountains in northern China. One was Taihang Mountain; the other was Wangwu Mountain. In the north of the mountains, there was a big family.

The grandpa in the family was called Yugong. Because the mountains were     12     their house, he and his family had to walk long to get to the town on the southern side.

One day Yugong thought, “It’s so     13     to go out like this! I’m an old man now, but I have children. For them and their children and their     14     children, the road to the outside world cannot be blocked that way by the mountains. We should try to let them have a chance to     15     to know the world! “

Hearing what Yugong said, people pulled     16     together and made up their minds to remove the two mountains. However, the mountains were so     17     that people can’t see their tops. The whole family couldn’t dig very much each day     18     they didn’t give up and kept on digging day after day.

Their perseverance (坚持) deeply touched their     19    . Some children even came over to help.

An old man named Zhisou in a neighboring village heard about this and came by just to talk with Yugong about it. “It was so unwise of you to make such a decision. You and your family don’t have enough energy. How could you     20     remove the huge mountains? Let them stop now. Don’t waste any more time!” he said.

Yugong     21     and said slowly, “You are wrong. When my sons are getting old, I still have grandsons here. My grandsons will have their children and their children’s children. The

family is     22     . While the height of the mountains cannot be increased any more. We must make our dream     23     one day.”

The Jade Emperor (玉皇大帝) was touched by Yugong’s perseverance. He ordered two deities (神仙) to     24     the two mountains away on their backs, putting them in a place     25     Yugong’s house.
