Zheng He,the Columbus of the East,was an amazing man.
He was born in 1371 and,11 years later,was caught by the army of a rich young man called Zhu Di and made to work for him.Over time the rich man saw that Zheng He was very clever and strong and they became close friends.In 1403 Zhu Di was made the King of China and he asked Zheng He to join his new government.
The King wanted to learn more about the world and show other countries his power.He ordered many new ships to be built and made Zheng He their leader.Between 1405 and 1433,Zheng He led seven sea trips to different parts of the world.He certainly travelled to India,Africa and the Middle East.A few people think his ships may have even reached South America and Australia.
Each trip lasted between two and four years and it is believed he sailed more than 50000 kms during the years of his travels.With 28000 men and over 300 ships,such as boats for food,water and even soldiers’ horses,Zheng He led a fleet(舰队) whose size would not be equalled by Europeans for over 500 years!
On these trips he brought with him many Chinese goods like silk and medicine to give to foreign kings or to sell for local goods.He returned from each trip with boats filled with expensive things such as gold and jewellery,foreign guests and strange animals like a giraffe.
It is a pity that we may never learn everything about Zheng He’s travels.After he died in 1433,the new king,who believed these trips were unlucky and too expensive,had them stopped and he burned almost all the books about Zheng He’s travels.It is only in the last 50 years that historians have begun to carefully study the adventures of the great Zheng He.

A.To bring new countries under the control of China.
B.To show the world how strong the King was.
C.To receive gifts from the kings of other countries.
D.To discover unusual animals.
57.What do we know about Zheng He from the passage?
A.He sailed to all seven continents.
B.Each of his trips lasted one year.
C.He died at the age of 62.
D.He was a successful businessman.

One day last winter.my dad and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus(马戏表演).Finally,there Was only one family in front of us.There were eight children.All were perhaps under the age of 12.You could tell that they didn’t have much money.Their clothes were not expensive but clean.All of them were standing in line,two by two behind their parents.I could feel that the children had never seen the circus before.They were very excited.
The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted.He proudly answered.“Eight
children’s tickets and two adults’ tickets so that I can take my family to the circus.”The ticket lady answered the price.The man’s wife looked sad.The father asked again in surprise,“How much did you say?”The ticket lady said the price again.The man didn’t have enough money.
How could he tell his eight children that he didn’t have enough money? At that time,my dad put his hand in his pocket,pulled out twenty dollars and dropped(掉) it on the ground(In fact,we were not rich).
My dad picked up the money and said to the father,“Excuse me,sir.This fell out of your pocket.”The man knew what happened at once.He looked at my dad and took my dad’s hands.He was so thankful that he couldn’t say a word.
My dad and I went back home.We didn’t sed the circus,but I would never forget that day.
