It was a cold night. The taxi driver didn’t take even one passenger all day. When he went by the train station, he saw a young man coming out with two bags in his hands. So he drove to him and asked, “Where are you going ,sir ?” “To the MP Hotel,” the young man answered. When the taxi driver heard this, he didn’t feel happy any more. The young man would give him only three dollars because the hotel was near the train station. But suddenly, he had an idea. He took the young man through many streets of the big city. After a long time, they arrived at the hotel. “Here we are! You should pay me seventeen dollars, please,” the taxi driver said to the young man. “What? Seventeen dollars! Do you think I’m a fool? Only last week, I took a taxi from the train station to this hotel and I only gave the driver fifteen dollars. I know how much I have to pay for the trip.”

阅读短文,然后按照要求完成下列小题。
Many of you have heard of a Cinderella(灰姑娘)story, but you may not know that there are over a hundred different ways to tell the Cinderella story. When writers tell the same story in a different way, it is called their “version” of the story. The story of Cinderella has all kinds of versions. Let’s read two of (A) _______ and find out how they are different.①
The version that most people know is the oldest one written in 1697 by Charles Perrault from France. This is the version where the birds help make Cinderella’s dress and the mice turn into carnage men(马车夫)and help Cinderella go to the dance in a pumpkin(南瓜)carriage. ②They help her meet the prince. (B) Cinderella marries the prince and they live happily together.
In another version of this story written in (C) _______ 1850s by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm from Germany, the birds help Cinderella in the whole story. Cinderella’s father gives her a little tree when he comes back from a party. She plants the little tree and her tears water it until it grows into a tall tree.
The birds now live in the tree and they offer Cinderella a dress of gold and shoes of gold. (D)灰姑娘去派对并且和王子跳舞. Later, he finds Cinderella is doing hard work at home Cinderella marries the Prince and they live happily ever after.
③Now you can understand what the word “version” means and how more than one writer can tell a story differently. That is why there are many versions of the same story.
66. 在文中(A)和(C)的空白处分别填入适当的单词:________;________
67. 将文中划线部分(B)改写为:
Cinderella ________ ________ to the prince and they live happily together.
68. 将文中划线部分(D)译成英语:
________________________________
69. 在文中①②③选出能够填入“In this version, many of the animals are Cinderella’s friends.”的位置:________
70. 从文中找出帮助Cinderella的两种动物的名字:________;________
【答案】66. ①. them ②. the
67. ①. is ②. married
68. Cinderella goes to the party and daces with the prince.
69. ② 70. ①. birds ②. mice
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了《灰姑娘》这一童话故事的两个不同版本的主要内容。
【66题详解】
根据“The story of Cinderella has all kinds of versions.”可知,灰姑娘的故事有各种各样的版本。而two of后接名词或代词的宾格,由此可知A处所在的句子是指“让我们读一读其中的两个版本,看看它们有什么不同”,因此,介词of后可填入代词them来指代上文提到的“versions”,故A处填入代词them;1850s表示“19世纪50年代”,因此其前应用定冠词the来限定,故C处填入定冠词the。故填them;the。
【67题详解】
划线部分(B)句子表示“灰姑娘嫁给了王子,从此,他们过上了幸福的生活。”动词短语marry sb表示“嫁给某人”,其同义短语为be married to sb,原句中的“marries”说明谓语动词应用三单形式,因此be动词应用is。故填is;married。
【68题详解】
分析句意及“并且”可知,该句应为含有并列连词and连接的一般现在时的并列句。“灰姑娘”翻译为Cinderella;“去派对”翻译为go to the party;“并且”翻译为and;“和王子跳舞”翻译为dance with the prince。因句子采用一般过去时,且主语Cinderella为第三人称单数,因此动词go的三单形式为goes,动词dance的三单形式为dances。故填Cinderella goes to the party and dances with the prince.
【69题详解】
句子“In this version, many of the animals are Cinderella’s friends.”表示“在这个版本中,许多小动物是灰姑娘的朋友。”由此可知,该句应出现在描述灰姑娘去舞会前打扮自己的这一故事情节中。②的下一句“They help her meet the prince.”中的人称代词“They”即指代那些小动物。因此该句应填入②所在的位置。故填②。
【70题详解】
根据“This is the version where the birds help make Cinderella’s dress and the mice turn into carnage men(马车夫)and help Cinderella go to the dance in a pumpkin(南瓜)carriage.”可知,在这个版本的故事中,小鸟帮灰姑娘制作裙子,老鼠们变成马车夫,他们帮助灰姑娘搭乘南瓜马车去赴会。因此这两种动物是birds和mice。故填birds;mice。
(E)
Long ago, there was a monster called “Nian”. At the end of winters, he often appeared in a village and ate the animals and villagers. The monster seemed very strong and nobody could fight him. So the villagers had to hide in the mountains to keep themselves safe.
One day, a smart old man came to the village. He told an old woman how to scare Nian away. That evening when Nian arrived at the village, he saw only the old woman’s house was bright. Nian got close to the house. Suddenly, he heard the noise of firecrackers (鞭炮). The monster felt afraid and jumped. And then he found the house was covered in red paper. This scared him even more and he ran out of the village quickly. When the other villagers returned, they saw that the old woman didn’t die.
The villagers later learned that Nian was afraid of red color and loud noises. They decided to put up red couplets (对联), set off firecrackers and stay up late when it was time for Nian’s visit at the end of winter. That is the legend (传说) of how the Spring Festival celebration began.

72. What would Nian do when he appeared in the village?
________________________________
73. Why did the villagers hide into the mountains?
________________________________
74. From whom did the old woman know the way to scare Nian away?

73. To keep themselves safe.
74. The old woman/She knew the way to scare Nian away from a smart old man./A smart old man.

【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了春节的来历,人们贴对联、放鞭炮、守岁是为了赶走“年”这个怪兽。
【71题详解】
根据第一段中的“At the end of winters, he often appeared in a village and ate the animals and villagers.”可知,在冬天结束的时候,他经常出现在一个村庄里,吃掉动物和村民。故填Nian/He often appeared in the village at the end of winters./At the end of winters.
【72题详解】
根据第一段中的“At the end of winters, he often appeared in a village and ate the animals and villagers.”可知,在冬天结束的时候,他经常出现在一个村庄里,吃掉动物和村民。故填Nian/He would eat the animals and villagers.
【73题详解】
根据第一段中的“So the villagers had to hide in the mountains to keep themselves safe.”可知,村民们不得不躲在山里以保护自己的安全。故填To keep themselves safe.
【74题详解】

【75题详解】
根据最后一段中的“The villagers later learned that Nian was afraid of red color and loud noises.”可知,年害怕红色和大声的噪音。故填Nian/He was afraid of red color and loud noises /Red color and loud noises.
