Once upon a time, there was a king who lost his leg and eye during a war. Even with these disabilities, his cleverness and kindness made him a great king in his kingdom.
One day, the king was walking through the palace hallway and saw the portraits (画像) of his ancestors (祖先). Thinking that one day his children would admire his portrait (画像) as well, he really wanted to ask someone to paint him.

House fires happen somewhere in the world every day. They may hurt people. But you can help! Learn these tips to keep you and your family safe.
Set smoke alarms (报警器). Put a smoke alarm in your house and test it every month. Half of the house fire deaths happen between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. The risk of dying in a house fire is cut in half with working smoke alarms. They make a really loud sound when there’s smoke. Get out of the house when the alarm sounds.
Make escape (逃离) plans. Create a fire escape plan. This is the most important step in preventing fires. Pick a place outside to meet your family members. 77% of families don’t have a house fire escape plan to follow. Fire can spread through a house quickly. You may have as little as two minutes to escape safely. Be ready to act at once.
Don’t hide and go outside! When there’s a fire, the first thing to do is to get out of the house as fast as you can. Touch the door before you go. If the door feels hot, don’t open it. There might be a fire on the other side. Find another way out. Crawl (匍匐前进) on the floor if there is a lot of smoke. It is easier to breathe near the floor.
Get out and stay out. Never go back into a burning house. Go outside where it is safe and stay out once you are out. Don’t call 119 until you are safely outside. Always call 119 as soon as possible when you smell smoke or there is a fire.
1. How often should people test a smoke alarm at home?
A. Every week. B. Every month. C. Every year. D. Every two months.
2. What is the most important step to prevent fires according to the passage?
A. Setting enough smoke alarms. B. Calling 119 as soon as possible.
C. Creating a fire escape plan. D. Crawling on the floor when there’s smoke.
3. What should you do first when a house fire happens?
A. Call 119 at once. B. Get out of the house as fast as you can.
C. Hide under the bed and wait for help. D. Go back to get valuable things.
4. Which is the right structure of the text?
A. ①②③//④//⑤ B. ①//②③//④//⑤ C. ①②//③//④//⑤ D. ①//②③④⑤

When the doctor arrived later that morning, he was very surprised. Colin was sitting on the sofa looking at one of his books. He was talking to Mary.
“So, you were ill last night, Colin,” he said.
“I’m better now — much better,” Colin answered in his young Rajah voice. “I’m going out in my wheelchair (轮椅) soon if it is fine. I want some fresh air.”
The doctor left without saying anything else. That night Colin slept well. He dreamt about the garden again, and Dickon and its animals.
Early the next morning, Mary ran into his room, “Dickon is here with the fox cub and the crow and two squirrels and a new-born lamb!” she cried.
“Listen! Did you hear that caw-caw sound!”
Just then Martha opened the door. “Dickon and his animals are here, sir,” she said, Colin looked very excited.
Dickon came in. The new-born lamb was in his arms and the little red fox walked next to him. Soot sat on his left shoulder and a squirrel sat on the other. Another squirrel was looking out of his coat pocket. Colin stared as Dickon gave him the new-born lamb.
“What is it doing?” cried Colin. “What does it want?”
“It wants its mother,” said Dickon, smiling.
He took a baby’s bottle from his pocket. He pushed the bottle into the lamb’s mouth. The lamb drank the milk, then it fell asleep.
Colin and Mary asked Dickon questions about the names of flowers. He knew exactly which ones were already growing in the secret garden.
“I’m going to see them,” cried Colin. “I can’t believe it!”
The next day, Dickon pushed Colin’s wheelchair slowly and carefully. Mary walked next to it. They went across the lawn to the long path near the wall. Then Dickon stopped pushing the chair.
“And look!” Mary moved the ivy branch. “Here is the door. Dickon pushes him in — push him in quickly!” When they were inside the garden, Colin looked round and round. He saw the walls and the earth and the trees with their new green leaves. In the grass under the trees there were flowers — gold, purple and white. The trees were covered in pink and white flowers. The sun was warm on his face. Mary and Dickon stared at him. He looked different. His face was pink, not white. “Mary! Dickon! I’m going to get well!” he cried. “And I’m going to live forever and ever!”

One day, the king was walking through the palace hallway and saw the portraits (画像) of his ancestors (祖先). Thinking that one day his children would admire his portrait (画像) as well, he really wanted to ask someone to paint him.
However, he wasn’t sure what his painting would be like because of his disabilities (残疾). So, he invited a group of famous painters to the palace, offering a lot of money to the artist who could create a beautiful portrait of him.
All the painters thought about it. They thought if they didn’t make the king happy, he might punish (惩罚) them. So, one by one, they started making excuses (借口) and politely refused (拒绝).

Half of the house fire deaths happen between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. The risk of dying in a house fire is cut in half with working smoke alarms. They make a really loud sound when there’s smoke.

When the doctor arrived later that morning, he was very surprised. Colin was sitting on the sofa looking at one of his books. He was talking to Mary.
“So, you were ill last night, Colin,” he said.
“I’m better now — much better,” Colin answered in his young Rajah voice. “I’m going out in my wheelchair (轮椅) soon if it is fine. I want some fresh air.”
The doctor left without saying anything else. That night Colin slept well. He dreamt about the garden again, and Dickon and its animals.
Early the next morning, Mary ran into his room, “Dickon is here with the fox cub and the crow and two squirrels and a new-born lamb!” she cried.
“Listen! Did you hear that caw-caw sound!”
Just then Martha opened the door. “Dickon and his animals are here, sir,” she said, Colin looked very excited.
Dickon came in. The new-born lamb was in his arms and the little red fox walked next to him. Soot sat on his left shoulder and a squirrel sat on the other. Another squirrel was looking out of his coat pocket. Colin stared as Dickon gave him the new-born lamb.
“What is it doing?” cried Colin. “What does it want?”
“It wants its mother,” said Dickon, smiling.
He took a baby’s bottle from his pocket. He pushed the bottle into the lamb’s mouth. The lamb drank the milk, then it fell asleep.
Colin and Mary asked Dickon questions about the names of flowers. He knew exactly which ones were already growing in the secret garden.
“I’m going to see them,” cried Colin. “I can’t believe it!”
The next day, Dickon pushed Colin’s wheelchair slowly and carefully. Mary walked next to it. They went across the lawn to the long path near the wall. Then Dickon stopped pushing the chair.
“And look!” Mary moved the ivy branch. “Here is the door. Dickon pushes him in — push him in quickly!” When they were inside the garden, Colin looked round and round. He saw the walls and the earth and the trees with their new green leaves. In the grass under the trees there were flowers — gold, purple and white. The trees were covered in pink and white flowers. The sun was warm on his face. Mary and Dickon stared at him. He looked different. His face was pink, not white. “Mary! Dickon! I’m going to get well!” he cried. “And I’m going to live forever and ever!”
