beautiful picture in the world on the wall of his palace.
So the king said, “All right, you may work on one of the walls in the new hall.” Just then, another artist said, “ Please allow me to work on the opposite wall. I shall make exactly what that man will make on the opposite wall. Moreover, I shall do so without looking at his work. I would even request you to have a thick curtain put up between the two walls so the either of us cann’t see the other.”
Everyone in the king’s court, including the king and the first artist was surprised. So the king decided to give the man a chance.
The following day a thick curtain was put into place and both the artists got to work. The first artist brought in a regular supply of paint, oil and water. But the second one would come with a cloth and a bucket of water every day.
A month later the first artist said that his work was completed and invited the king to come.
So the king sent the message to the second artist, saying he was coming to see their works that evening.
After seeing the first artist’s wall, the king was very impressed with the painting and gave him a huge sum of money as a reward. He then asked for the curtain to be opened up.
The same painting was seen on the opposite wall too! It was exactly like the one on the first wall. But this man had not seen what was going on, on the other side of the curtain.
The man said simply, “It’s very easy I just polished the wall every day!”
It was a wall made of white marble. The fellow polished it till it shone like a mirror.
The reflection of the painting across the room showed up in it!

解析
试题分析：这是一则小故事。有一位艺术家为国王在墙上画画，另一位艺术家说他不用看第一位艺术家的画，就可以画出一模一样的画，于是国王在两面墙之间拉上厚厚的窗帘。结果第二位艺术家的墙上真的出现了和第一位艺术家一模一样的画。原来第二位艺术家把自己的墙磨成了像镜子一样。
小题1:在两面墙之间挂一个很厚的窗帘是为了使第一位艺术家的画成为一个秘密，故选B。
小题2: 根据After seeing the first artist’s wall, the king was very impressed with the painting and gave him a huge sum of money as a reward.故选A。
小题3:根据The same painting was seen on the opposite wall too! It was exactly like the one on the first wall. But this man had not seen what was going on, on the other side of the curtain.可猜出国王看到第二面墙的时候，又满意又好奇，可知答案为C。
小题4:这篇文章主要讲了墙上的画，可知答案为 D。

“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 36 in with severe burns on his face，neck and arms．We have called for a（n） 37 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle．” Seattle was 350 miles from his college，so we knew immediately this was 38 ．
The doctor described the 39 ，which caused the burns．At 6 am，our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment．When they 40 the charcoal（木炭），it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much gasoline（petrol）．The flames 41 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to well over his head．
42 ，one of the boys was quick-minded，grasped my son，and 43 him on the grass．While it saved his life，it was not in 44 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars（伤疤）．
After he 45 from the treatments，the doctors told him they would not do plastic surgery（整容）for 6 months 46 it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling．So，he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns．
When I was a child, my mother told my sister，who had a 10-inch, very 47__ scar on her arm，“Nancy，if you ignore the scar，other people will ignore it．It does not mean they will not 48 it，but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you．’’
I 49 this wisdom on to my son．He took my advice to 50 and returned to school with his head held high--glad he was alive．
By the end of the six-month waiting period，he decided that the scars did not 51 , sohe made the 52 to give up any plastic surgery．
We all have “scars” that we believe 53 people to keep away from us．And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked different，or dressed differently，people would like us better．
But you see，people will only judge you by your looks，or your clothes，if you are judging yourself by these same 54 standards．Put your imperfections out of your mind and concentrate on what you value 55 yourself，and your beauty will shine through．

It was Christmas time, and although there wasn’t enough 39 for a lot of gifts, we planned to hold a family party. And the big 40 for the kids was the fun of Christmas 41 .
They planned weeks ahead of time, asking 42 what they wanted for Christmas. Luckily, I had saved $120 for them to buy 43 .
The big 44 arrived. I gave each kid a twenty-dollar bill and 45 them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered(散开). We had two hours to shop; then we would 46 again at the “Santa’s Workshop”.
Driving home, everyone was in high Christmas spirits, 47 my younger daughter, Ginger, who was unusually 48 . She had only one small, flat bag with a few candies — fifty-cent candies! I was so angry, but I didn’t say anything 49 we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed the door, ready to be 50 again. This is what she told me.
“I was looking 51 , thinking of what to buy, and I 52 to read the little cards on the ‘Giving Trees.’ One was for a little girl, four years old, and all she 53 for Christmas was a doll(玩具娃娃). So I took the card off the tree and 54 the doll for her. We have so much and she doesn’t have anything.”
I never felt so 55 as I did that day.

On Christmas Eve, everyone left work early to celebrate the special occasion, except for Mr. Tan and Mr. Kim. They were in their laboratory analyzing the results of their latest experiments. Mr. Tan realized that something special was taking place in his experiment —the bacteria he had cultured were growing extremely quickly under high pressure and at a very low temperature. After noting down the findings in his notebook, he left the room to prepare for another round of tests. Shortly after, Mr. Kim entered.
“Hey Jimmy,” Mr. Kim called out, “do you have an extra copy of the laboratory booking form?”
There was no reply, so Mr. Kim looked through Mr. Tan’s things. He soon found Mr. Tan"s notebook and was horrified to see that Mr. Tan had managed to make one of the most important discoveries in modern science. He then looked into the deep-freeze cupboard where a dish containing the bacteria was kept. He put them into his pocket and returned to his own laboratory.
Mr. Tan came back an hour later to find his notebook and the dish missing. He knew that Mr. Kim had taken them and went to Mr. Kim"s laboratory to find out. When he opened the door, he found Mr. Kim lying on the floor motionless. His face was pale and his skin had turned black. The deadly bacteria had been handled improperly. He shook his head and left.
