His grandson wanted to be just like his grandfather, so tried to emulate him every way he could.One day the grandson asked, "Grandpa, I try to read just like you do, but I don't understand most of it, and I forget whatever I do understand immediately I close the book. So what good is it for me to read?"The grandfather, who was putting coal on the fire, said, "Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water. "The boy did as told to, but the water leaked out before he could get the basket home. The grandfather laughed, saying, "You'll have to move a little faster. "This time he ran faster, but again the basket emptied. Out of breath, he decided it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket (桶). But the grandfather said, "I want a basketof water instead of a bucket of water. You're just not trying hard enough. "The boy knew what he was trying to accomplish was impossible. However, he decided to show his grandfather a third time.The boy dipped the basket into the river and ran as hard as he could. With the empty basket, he gasped (喘气说),"See Grandpa? It's useless! ""So you think it useless? "the old man asked. "Then look at the basket. "To his surprise, the boy found it washed clean of the dirty coal stains and now clean inside and out."My child, that's what happens when you read the book.

Here are some reasons why you should go to college and receive a good education there.Schools and universities are the first sources of knowledge. We take that knowledge later on to build our careers after graduation. More knowledge will be gained after you start working, but without an education, that job will not be within easy reach. Knowledge leads to knowledge.While limited within the walls of the educational institutions, we openly explore other cultures of the world. We come to know that ours is not the only culture. Other cultures have valuable insights to share, enriching our own. Education also makes us want to travel and interact with various cultures, broadening our horizons.When there's a downturn (衰退) in the economy, those who attended college will be more likely to find a new job than those who only finished grade school and have a limited skills set. The more education you have, the more chances you will get to improve the quality of your life as you have a better job and earn a higher salary.When you're skillful and knowledgeable, you get to "rub knees" with people of similar backgrounds and tastes. It means a good education leads to excellent networking. Good networking can benefit you a lot in your later life.A good education makes you a more interesting person. You can talk about ideas and events i nstead of just other people and what’s on sale in stores. An educated person doesn't gossip, having a preference to discuss ideas and listen to what other people have to say.27.Paragraph 2 mainly shows that going to college allows you to ______.A. have a chance to study abroad.B. keep gaining knowledge.C. become a more interesting person.D. realize the importance of knowledge.28.According to Paragraph 3, what does going to college mean?A. Having a greater understanding of different cultures.B. Being limited within the walls of a college.C. Valuing our own culture much more.D. Thinking differently from others.29.By giving the example of a downturn in the economy, what does the author want to show?A. A good education can improve your tastes.B. A good education sometimes means nothing.C. A good education means you will not lose your job.D. A good education allows you to keep a high quality of life.30.What is the text mainly about?A. Sources of knowledge.B. Benefits of attending college.C. The disadvantages of not being educated.D. The reason why some people think college useless.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
