The animal cried for hours as the farmer tried to think out what to do. Finally, the farmer thought the animal was too old and the well needed to be covered(覆盖) up anyway, so he decided not to try to save the donkey.The farmer invited his neighbours(邻居) to help him. They began to shovel(铲) dirt into the well. The donkey cried harder. Then a few shovelful later, he became quiet. The farmer looked into the well,and was surprised by what he saw.While every shovelful of dirt hit his back, the donkey would shake (抖) it off and take a step on the new layer(层) of dirt. As the farmer's neighbours continued(继续) to shovel dirt on top of the animal, the donkey would shake it off and take another step up.Soon the donkey stepped up out the well and ran away, to the surprise of all the neighboursThe lesson we get from this story is that life shovels some dirt on us, we must get out of the well and not let it cover us. We must learn to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our trouble is a stepping-stone (踏脚石). We can get out of the deepest well by never giving up!（1）The donkey in the story is __________.A . hard-workingB . strongC . dyingD . clever（2）The farmer is ___________.A . carelessB . kind to the donkeyC . ready to give up the donkeyD . friendly（3）When we are in trouble,we have to learn from___________.A . the farmerB . the neighboursC . the donkeyD .

At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English－speaking country.Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is－a mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so you're more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person's understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.Finally, having more multi－language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each other's problems.The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don't try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.（1）What is the passage mainly about?A . The benefits of learning other languagesB . The reasons why people come to America.C . The importance of learning English.D . How to learn another language.（2）The passage begins with the experience of the Vieira family in order toA . discuss the need for teaching a new languageB . introduce the passage's main characters to the readersC . describe the advantages of moving to another countryD . show the problems of speaking only one language（3）The underlined phrase "multi－language speakers" (Paragraph 5) means "people who know ."A . their mother languageB . a new languageC . more than one languageD . body language（4）According to the last paragraph, which of the following is the worst?A . Not knowing another languageB . Forgetting one's mother languageC . Refusing to learn another languageD . Failing to communicate with others.23. （6分）阅读C篇短文，按要求完成下列各题。
