a

sculpture(

not far away.

He felt strange and asked the sculptor, “Why are you creating two

2

sculptures? Do you need two to put

in different

?”

“No.” the man said without looking up, “We need only one, but the first one became damaged(

)

4

I

could finish it, so I’m working on a new one.”

Bill picked up the damaged sculpture and examined it

5

. But he couldn’t find

wrong with it.

“Where is the damage?” he asked.

“There is a scratch(

划痕

) on the sculpture’s nose.” the sculptor said while

7

his work.

Bill then asked, “Where are you going to place the sculpture?”

The sculptor replied that it would be placed on a place which is 20 feet in

8

.“If the sculpture is up that

high, who is going to notice that there is a scratch on the nose?” Bill asked.

The sculptor

his work, looking up at the man and said, “I will know it.”

猫和老鼠

The cat hunts the mouse. The mouse tries to avoid being caught. It has always been this way.

It is not

11

being a mouse in such circumstances(

环境

). One day, the mice held a meeting. The topic of

12

was what to do about the cat. “The cat is our enemy. We must do something to

13

ourselves! ”cried

the other mice. “We cannot live this way,

14

it is too dangerous to go out during the day.”

There was general agreement that a

15

must be found to this serious problem. “I have an idea”, said the

young mouse. “As we know,

16

problem is that the cat appears silently when we least expect him. Just hang a

bell around the cat’s neck. When he comes, the bell will ring, and we will be

17

in time to run.”

Other mice applauded (

)

18

and they all agreed with the idea.

Just then, a wise old mouse

19

and said, “That is a good idea. Now may I ask, who will volunteer to hang

the bell around the cat’s neck?”

There was general silence

20

the mice then. No one stood up to volunteer for such a dangerous job. The

old mouse said, “It is easy to suggest a solution especially when carrying it out is impossible.”

Is human blood(

血液

) all the same? Of course not. Blood is made up of different parts, such as red blood cells,

white blood cells and so on. Two chemical molecules(

分子

)on the red blood cells make people’s blood different.

Scientists mark one molecule “A” and the other molecule “B”.

According to which and how many molecules are on the red blood cells, scientists divide blood into four types:

A, B, AB and O. Your blood type will stay the same through the whole life. Scientists have found that people with

the same blood type may have things in common.

People with type A: They look peaceful from the outside. But they ask so much of themselves that they may

be very nervous inside. They become happy or sad easily. They can easily win people’s trust.

People with type B: They have strong minds. Once they begin a task and make up their minds to do it, they

will not give up easily. And they want to do things in their own way.

People with type AB: Maybe they are the strangest among all blood types. They can be both open and shy,

noisy and quiet at the same time!

People

with

type

O:

They’re

open

and

good

at

making

friends.

They

always

begin

tasks

but

don’t

always

finish them in the end. They have lots of new ideas and they always strongly believe in themselves.
