2、f money and was determined to sell his slaves. To do this, he had to take them to a large city where there was a slave market. The city was far away, and the slaves must walk the whole distance. A number of bundles(成捆的东西) were made up for them to carry. Some of these bundles contained the things the
3、y would need on the road. Choose your bundles, boys, said the master. There is one for each of you. Aesop at once chose the largest one. The other slaves laughed and said he was foolish. But he threw it upon his shoulders and seemed well satisfied. The next day, the laugh was the other way. For the
4、bundle which he had chosen had contained the food for the whole party. Aesop is a wise fellow, said his master. The man who buys him must pay a high price.” A very rich man, whose name was Xanthus, wanted a servant. As the slaves stood before him he asked each one to tell what kind of work he could
5、do. All were eager to be bought by Xanthus because they knew he would be a kind master. So each one boosted of his skill in doing some sort of labor. One was a fine gardener; another could take care of horses; a third was a good cook; a fourth could manage a household. And what can you do, Aesop? as
6、ked Xanthus. Nothing, he answered. Nothing? How is that? Because, since these other slaves do everything, there is nothing left for me to perform, said Aesop. This answer pleased the rich man so well that he bought Aesop at once, and took him to his home on the island of Samos. In Samos the little s

I volunteered about 30 to 40 hours a week during the summer. Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespie. He never has any visitors, and nobody
11、 seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, even though he responded with only an occasional squeeze (紧握) of my hand. Mr. Gillespie was in a coma (昏迷). I left for a w
12、eek for a vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Gillespie was gone. I didnt have the courage to ask any of the nurses where he was, for fear they might tell me he had died. So with many questions unanswered, I continued to volunteer there through my eighth-grade year. Several years lat
13、er, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a familiar face. When I realized who it was, my eyes filled with tears. He was alive! I got up the nerve to ask him if he was Mr. Gillespie, and if he had been in a coma about five years ago. With an uncertain look on hi
14、s face, he replied yes. I explained how I knew him, and that I had spent many hours talking to him in the hospital. His eyes welled up with tears, and he gave me the warmest hug I had ever received. He began to tell me how, as he lay there comatose (昏睡的), he could hear me talking to him and could fe
15、el me holding his hand the whole time. He thought it was an angel, who was there with him. Mr. Gillespie firmly believed that it was my voice and touch that had kept him alive. Then he told me about his life. We exchanged a hug, said our good-byes and went our separate ways. Although I havent seen h
16、im since, he fills my heart with joy every day. I know that I made a difference between his life and his death. As importantly, he has made a great difference in my life.

21、r more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping (录像) the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families ta
22、lk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the childre
23、ns IQ scores,” Lewis says. “And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is.”The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings (兄弟姐妹). Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner convers
24、ation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. “Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are its the middle child.” There is, however,

A. have to help their parents to serve dinner B. get the least attention from the family C. are often kept away from the dinner tabl
28、e D. find it hard to keep up with other children32. Lewis research provides an answer to the question_. A. why TV is important in family life B. why parents should keep good order C. why children in small families seem to be quieter D. why middle children seem to have more difficulties in lifeD Why
29、are so many people afraid to fail? Quite simply because we forget that failure is part of the human life and that every person has the right to fail. Every person is able to fight failure and finally succeed. Most parents work hard at preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledg
30、e that they have failed. One way is to lower standards(标准). When a child finishes making a table, the mother describes it as “perfect” even though it doesnt stand still. Another way is to blame others. If John fails in science, his teacher is unfair or stupid. Theres a problem with the two ways. It
31、makes a child unprepared for life in the real world. Young children need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time, and that its possible to enjoy a game even when you dont win. A child often feels terrible, of course, when he is not invited to a birthday party, or
32、is not chosen into a football team. But parents should not say “It doesnt matter.” quickly. The young should be allowed to experience failure and be helped to come out of it. Failure never gives people pleasure. It hurts both adults and children. But it can be really good to your life when you learn
33、 to use it. You must learn to ask “Why did I fail?” . Dont blame anyone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong and how you can improve. If someone else can help, dont be shy about asking them. Success just repeats what has been done. It is not as good a teacher as failure. You can learn how to give a

They dont blame others. D. They help them to come out of failure.34Which of the following does a person need to learn when
