He was a statesman (政治家) and worked out many reforms(改革) for the state, like paying more attention to farming and giving rewards (报酬) to soldiers who were successful when at war. But these reforms were not easily carried out (执行) at first. Most people didn't trust Shang Yang. In order to solve this problem, Shang Yang came up with an idea. He put a thin wooden pole at the south gate of the Qin capital. Many people came to see him and the pole. Then, in front of the crowd, Shang Yang said loudly, "The man who takes this pole to the north gate will get 10 gold pieces." It was a simple job and the reward was so large. However, some time passed and no one stepped forward. They all thought Shang Yang was making a joke. Hearing no answer, Shang Yang stepped forward and said, "The reward now goes to 50 gold pieces." This reward was unbelievably large. Finally, a man from the crowd came forward. He put the pole on his shoulders and walked to the north gate. True to his word, Shang Yang gave the man 50 gold pieces. After that, the people of Qin were all talking about what Shang Yang did about the pole. They believed he was a man of his word. So when Shang Yang began carrying out his reforms, the people followed him. Under these great reforms, Qin grew stronger and stronger. At last, Qin made all the seven states into one empire (帝国). 6. What did Shang Yang do? A. A statesman. B. A king. C. An emperor. D. A soldier. 7. In order to carry out his reforms, what idea did Shang Yang have? A. Having a wooden pole carrying competition. B. Having a wooden pole cutting competition C. The man stepping forward first would be praised. D. The man carrying the pole from south gate to the north one would get some gold pieces. 8. Why did Shang Yang's reward increase at last? A. Because a man stepped forward. B. Because there wasn't enough time. C. Because Shang Yang heard no answer. D. Because Shang Yang was happy. 9. "They believed he was a man of his word." What does the underlined part mean? A. A man who can speak loudly. B. A man who likes to speak a lot. C. A man who keeps his word. D. A man of few words. 10. After these great reforms, what happened in the history of China? A. Shang Yang became the first emperor. B. The first empire of China appeared. C. The south gate fell down. D. The state of Qin became weaker and weaker. C Sometimes, making someone happy is easy - just say a few words that really satisfy him. From strangers to your family and closest friends, there are many nice things we can say to them to bring a little kindness to the world. However, some people find it difficult to say something nice to others. Recently, the topic "Don't feel ashamed to give praise" has gone popular on the social media. People shared personal experiences when people felt too shy to say something nice about someone. They also expressed their worries: "What if others think my words are just flattery(奉承)?""What if I praise someone and only get the cold shoulder?" Because of these fears, some choose to stay quiet, leaving kind words unsaid. This small habit seems harmless, but it can hide our true feelings. Little by little, we get used to keeping our praise, care and kindness deep inside. Over time, it can change our relationships and even reduce our own sense of happiness. As a result, we may start to feel distant from others. In fact, saying something nice doesn't mean we are trying to please others against our wish. Instead, it shows we pay attention to the strengths and efforts of those around us, and we value and respect them. A simple and sincere praise can warm someone's heart, reduce misunderstandings（误会） and bring people together. So next time you see your friend wearing a beautiful coat, why not give him a sincere praise? For example, you can focus on details like "This colour looks great on you!" or "You really have a good taste about music!" These kind words not only make your friend happy but also create a pleasant feeling between you. Kind words cost nothing, but they can mean everything. 11. Why do some people find it hard to praise others? A. Because they like to keep their praise inside. B. Because they think kind words cost too much. C. Because they may praise others against wishes. D. Because they worry others will not like their words. 12. What does the phrase "cold shoulder" in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A A polite and warm welcome. B. A shy and quiet conversation. C. A silent and unfriendly reply. D. A cold and dishonest manner. 13. The writer mentions "This colour looks great on you" as an example to show that ______. A. praise on clothing are always the perfect choice B. a simple and detailed praise can build good relationships C. a simple praise can sometimes reduce misunderstandings D. friends usually care more about their appearance than other things 14. What would be the best title of the passage? A. The Secret to True Happiness B. Why We Should Not Praise Others C. The Power of a Sincere Praise D. How to Avoid Misunderstandings 15. What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage? A. To explain why some people are afraid of giving praise. B. To encourage readers to express sincere praise to others. C. To tell readers how to tell flattery from true praise. D. To show that keeping kind words inside is sometimes better. 四、单词填空（共10题，每小题1分，满分10分。） 1.
