In the story, a little duckling looked different from the other ducklings. They laughed at him and pushed him away. The poor duckling felt lonely, so he left home and searched for a new place to live. The road was not easy. He met cold weather, unkind animals and many dangers. He once wanted to give up. But he kept walking and tried to stay alive. When spring came, he saw some beautiful swans on the lake. He looked down at the water and saw himself. To his surprise, he was not an ugly duckling any more. He became a beautiful swan. Many students like this story because it is not only about a bird. It is also about growing up. Sometimes people may laugh at us because we are different. But being different is not always a bad thing. The story tells us to be patient and kind to ourselves. It also tells us not to judge others only by their looks. In English class, Ms Chen asked her students to retell the story in groups. One group changed the ending. In their ending, the duckling met a friendly frog before winter. The frog encouraged him and said, “You don't have to be the same as others to be valuable.” The new ending made the class think more deeply about the story. 53. Who wrote The Ugly Duckling? A. The emperor. B. Hans Christian Andersen. C. A Chinese fisherman. D. A science teacher. 54. Why did the duckling leave home? A. Others laughed at him and pushed him away. B. He wanted to make money. C. He wanted to find a castle. D. His mother asked him to go. 55. What did the duckling become in the end? A. A frog. B. A lion. C. A swan. D. A mouse. 56. What lesson can students learn from the story? A. People should judge others by looks. B. Being different can also be valuable. C. Everyone should laugh at weak people. D. Winter is always the best season. 57. Why did Ms Chen ask students to retell the story? A. To help them understand the story better. B. To make them stop reading stories. C. To teach them how to catch birds. D. To ask them to copy the old ending only. B 词汇提示：golden 金色的；ruler 统治者；greed 贪婪。 Long ago, there was a poor fisherman. One day, he caught a golden fish. To his surprise, the fish could speak. It said, “Please set me free, and I will help you.” The fisherman was kind, so he put the fish back into the sea. When the fisherman went home, his wife was angry. She wanted a new house. The fisherman went back to the sea and called the fish. The fish gave them a new house. But the wife wanted more. She wanted to be rich, then a queen, and finally the ruler of the sea. The fisherman felt worried. He knew his wife wanted too much, but he did not know how to stop her. When he asked the fish for the last wish, the sea became dark and wild. The golden fish said nothing. When the fisherman returned home, he found the old small house again. His wife sat there quietly. This story is easy to read, but it is not only for children. It tells us that wanting better things is not wrong, but endless greed can take away what we already have. The fisherman was kind, but he also needed to be brave. If he had told his wife “enough” earlier, maybe the ending would be different. 58. What did the fisherman catch one day? A. A golden fish. B. A small boat. C. A magic net. D. A beautiful swan. 59. Why did the fisherman set the fish free? A. Because he was afraid of water. B. Because he was kind. C. Because his wife asked him to do so. D. Because he wanted to be a king. 60. Which wish came first? A. To be a queen. B. To rule the sea. C. To have a new house. D. To have the old house back. 61. What does the word “greed” probably mean? A. Wanting too much. B. Helping others. C. Telling the truth. D. Keeping a promise. 62. What can we infer about the fisherman? A. He was kind but not brave enough. B. He wanted more than his wife. C. He was happy with every wish. D. He never went back to the sea. C 词汇提示：value 价值观；plot 情节；creatively 有创造力地。 Stories are old, but they never really grow old. A story written hundreds of years ago can still speak to students today. Why? Because good stories are not only about kings, witches, animals or magic. They are about people, choices and lessons. Take The Emperor's New Clothes as an example. The story is funny because the emperor walks through the street with no real clothes. But behind the funny scene, there is a serious question: Why did so many adults lie? They were afraid of looking foolish. The little boy was different. He told the truth because he looked at the world with clear eyes. Stories also help students learn language. When students retell a story, they practise the simple past tense. When they act out a story, they learn to use voice and body language. When they make up a new ending, they learn to think creatively. A short story can become reading, speaking and writing practice at the same time. More importantly, stories help students understand values. The Lion and the Mouse teaches kindness. The Ugly Duckling teaches respect. The Fisherman and the Golden Fish teaches people not to be greedy. These lessons are easy to remember because they come with interesting characters and plots. So the next time you read a fairy tale, do not ask only, “What happened?” Ask also, “Why did it happen?” and “What can I learn from it?” Then an old story can become a new lesson. 63. Why can old stories still speak to students today? A. Because they are only about magic. B. Because they are about choices and lessons. C. Because they are always easy to spell. D. Because they have no serious ideas. 64. In The Emperor's New Clothes, why did many adults lie? A. They were afraid of looking foolish. B. They did not see the emperor. C. They wanted to help the little boy. D. They did not understand clothes. 65. What can students practise when they retell a story? A. The simple past tense. B. The future tense only. C. Maths problems. D. Cooking skills. 66. Which story teaches people not to be greedy? A. The Lion and the Mouse. B. The Ugly Duckling. C. The Fisherman and the Golden Fish. D. The Emperor's New Clothes. 67. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Fairy tales are only for young children. B. Good stories can teach language and values. C. Students should only read new stories. D. Acting is more important than reading. 五、词汇填空 根据句意及首字母提示完成单词。 68. O________ upon a time, there was a poor fisherman. 69. The p________ saved the princess in the story. 70.
