回答问题(三)　国王巡查记+一滴清水的启示 A Once upon a time, there was a king who ruled a rich country. One day, he went for a trip to some parts of his country far away. He decided to travel on foot to talk with his people. After several weeks of travel, the king returned to the palace. He was quite happy that he had seen his people living a rich life. However, he complained (抱怨) that his feet were very painful, because it was his first trip on foot covering such a long way. He complained to his ministers (大臣) that the roads were very stony and weren't comfortable to walk on. So he ordered his ministers to cover every road with leather (皮革) so that the people in his country could walk comfortably.‎ The ministers were surprised at his order as it would mean that thousands of cows would have to be killed in order to get enough leather.‎ Then one of them came up to the king and said that he had another idea. “Instead of covering the roads with leather, why don't you just have a piece of leather cut in proper shape to cover your feet?” he suggested.‎ The king praised the minister. Then he ordered a pair of leather shoes for himself.‎ In order to improve our lives, perhaps it is better to change ourselves, and not necessarily, the world. ‎ ‎1.How did the king travel to some parts of his country?(不超过5个词)‎ ‎  ‎ ‎2.Why did the king order his ministers to cover every road with leather? (不超过15个词)‎ ‎  ‎ ‎3.What does the story want to tell us?(不超过20个词)‎ ‎  ‎ B There was once a jar of fresh, clean water. Every drop of water in the jar felt greatly proud of being so clean and pure. Day after day they would congratulate each other on how clean and beautiful they were. That was until one day when one of the drops got bored with his clean existence. He wanted to try what it was like being a dirty drop.‎ The other drops tried to talk to him out of it, but he stuck to his guns. Hardly realizing, when the drop came back all dirty, he turned all the other drops in the jar into dirty drops, too.‎ They tried to get clean again, but they couldn't. They tried everything to shake off the dirtiness. ‎ 3‎ Finally, much later, someone put the jar in a fountain(喷泉),and only when a lot of clean water entered the jar did the drops get back their old state. Now they all know that if they all want to be nice clean drops, then each one of them has to stay clean, even if they find it difficult. That drop that succeeded in being dirty has realized that correcting the mistake of one single drop needs a lot of work for everyone else.‎ The same happens to us and our friends. If we want to live in a jar of clean water, each of us will have to be a clean drop. How about you? What are you? A clean drop?‎ ‎4.Why did one of the drops want to make a change?(不超过10个词)‎ ‎  ‎ ‎5.What did the drops try to do in order to get clean again?(不超过10个词)‎ ‎  ‎ ‎6.What does the passage mainly want to tell us?(不超过20个词)‎ ‎  ‎ 3‎ ‎【参考答案】‎ A　1.On foot.‎ ‎2.Because he hoped that the people in his country could walk comfortably.‎ ‎3.In order to improve our lives, perhaps it is better to change ourselves, and not necessarily, the world. ‎ B　4.Because he got bored with his state (clean existence).‎ ‎5.They tried everything to shake off the dirtiness.‎ ‎6.If we want to live in a jar of clean water, each of us must be a clean drop.‎ 3‎
