An old farmer lived with his grandson. Each morning, the 16 got up early and read his Bhagavad Gita(薄迦梵歌). One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa! I try to read the book like you 17 I can’t understand it, and I forget it easily. What’s the 18 of reading it?” The grandfather said, “Take this coal(煤炭) basket down to the 19 and bring me back a basket of water.” The boy did as his grandfather 20 ,but all the water ran 21 he got home. The grandfather laughed, “You’ll have to move faster next time.” This time the boy 22 faster, but again the basket was empty. He told his grandfather that is was 23 to carry water in a basket. He wanted to use a bottle instead, but the old man said, “I just want a basket of water. You’re not 24 hard enough.” The boy wanted to show his grandfather that the water would surely run. He again put the 25 into the river and ran hard. But there wasn’t anything in it again. He said 26 ,“Look, grandpa, it’s useless!” “Watch the basket.” said the grandfather. For the first time the boy 27 the basket was different. It had changed from a dirty old coal basket into a 28 one, inside and out. “Boy, you might not understand or remember 29 when you read the book, but when you read it, you will be 30 ,inside and out. That’s what you got from it.” 小题1: A．son B．father C．grandfather D．grandmother 小题2: A．so B．but C．or D．and 小题3: A．time B．place C．use D．habit 小题4: A．house B．beach C．lake D．river 小题5: A．said B．saw C．liked D．did 小题6: A．as B．after C．until D．before 小题7: A．ran B．rode C．drove D．flew 小题8: A．difficult B．interesting C．impossible D．unimportant 小题9: A．hitting B．trying C．holding D．studying 小题10: A．hand B．bottle C．basket D．coal 小题11: A．sadly B．hopefully C．excitedly D．happily 小题12: A．forgot B．realized C．believed D．remembered 小题13: A．white B．clean C．new D．black 小题14: A．nothing B．something C．anything D．everything 小题15: A．different B．relaxed C．curious D．worried
