Long ago, in ancient China, there was a big flood. The water covered the land, and people were very sad. A wise man named Yu decided to help everyone. He did not just give orders. He worked with the people every day.
For many years, Yu the Great travelled to different places. He dug new rivers and built strong walls to stop the water. His hands became rough, and his feet were always tired. He even passed by his own house three times but was too busy to go in and see his family. He never stopped working.
Finally, after thirteen years of hard work, the flood was gone! The land was safe and good for farming. People were happy and had food to eat. Yu’s story teaches us that true success comes from hard work and never giving up. Labour helps us grow strong and make the world a better place.

答案及解析
答案:1. C 2. B 3. B 4. C 5. C
解析:
1.C 【解析】 文章开头提到“A big flood covered the land. People were sad and had no food.”,因此故事开始时古代中国面临的主要问题是洪水淹没了土地。选项C准确地描述了这一情况。
2.B 【解析】 文中明确写道:“He did not just give orders. He worked with the people. They dug rivers to let the water go to the sea. They built strong walls to stop the flood.” 这说明大禹是通过与人民一起挖河道、筑堤坝来治理洪水的,而不仅仅是发号施令。
3.B 【解析】 文章讲述“Three times, he passed by his own house. He heard his children crying and his wife calling him. But he did not go in. ‘The work is not done,’ he said. ‘I cannot rest.’” 这表明他因为工作繁忙,没有时间回家探望家人。
4.C 【解析】 文中指出“Yu worked for thirteen years.”,因此他解决洪水问题花费了十三年时间。
5.C 【解析】 故事的核心是歌颂大禹不懈的辛勤劳动和奉献精神。文章结尾总结道:“True success comes from hard work and never giving up.”,这与选项C表达的意思完全一致。

大禹教我们劳动
很久以前,古时候的中国,发生了一场大洪水。水淹没了土地,人们都很伤心。一位名叫禹的智者决定帮助大家。他不仅仅是指挥别人,而是每天都和大家一起劳动。
许多年里,大禹走遍了不同的地方。他挖掘新的河道,修筑坚固的堤坝来阻挡洪水。他的双手变得粗糙,双脚总是很疲惫。他甚至三次经过自己的家门口,却因为太忙而没能进去看看家人。他从未停止工作。
终于,经过十三年的辛勤劳动,洪水退去了!土地安全了,适合耕种。人们高兴起来,有了食物吃。大禹的故事告诉我们,真正的成功来自辛勤的劳动和永不放弃。劳动帮助我们变得强壮,让世界变得更美好。
