Tony, a nine-year-old kid, is sitting at his desk when suddenly he wets (尿濕) his pants. He thinks his heart is going to stop because he can't possibly know how this has happened. It has never happened before. He knows the after-effect (后果) -When the boys find out, he will never hear the end of it. When the girls find out, they'll never speak to him again as long as he lives.

Tony puts his head down and say to himself, "Oh, no. What can I do? I need help now!"

He looks up and notices the teacher coming, with a look in her eyes that says he has been discovered.

As the teacher is walking to him, a classmate named Emily is carrying a glass that is full of water. Emily falls down in front of the teacher and drops the glass of water in Tony's pants. Tony seems to be angry, but all the while he is saying to himself, "Thank you, dear! Thank you, dear!"

Now all of a sudden, instead of being the person that everyone laughs at, Tony is the person of sympathy (同情). The person that everyone laughs at should be him, but now it is Emily.

She tries to help, but they tell her, "You've done enough, you stupid!"

At the end of the day, as they were waiting for the bus, Tony walks over to Emily and says in a low voice, "You did that on purpose, didn't you?"

Emily says back in a quiet voice, "I wet my pants, too."

1.What does Tony think the other boys will do if they find out the fact?

A.They'll never speak to him again. B.They'll tell the teacher about it.

C.They'll try to help him. D.They'll all laugh at him.

2.Which is right according to the passage?

A.Tony is really angry with Emily. B.Emily drops the water on purpose.

C.Tony and Emily don't go home by bus. D.Tony and Emily aren't classmates.

3.We know that Emily is a ________ girl from the passage?

A.careless and lazy B.quiet and bright C.kind and smart. D.stupid and helpless

Bertie was sad for weeks, months after the lion died. There was nothing I could do to cheer him or even console (安慰) him. He would sit for hours in his room, or go off on long walks all on his own. He seemed so shut away inside himself. Try as I did, I could not reach him.

? Then one day I was in the kitchen here, when I saw him hurrying down the hill, waving his stick and shouting to me. “I’ve got it,” he cried, as he came in, “I’ve got it at last.” He showed me the end of his stick. It was white. “See that, Millie?” “Chalk! It’s chalk underground, isn’t it?”

“So?” I said.

“You know the famous White Horse on the hillside at Uffington, the one they carved(雕刻) out of the chalk a thousand years ago? That horse never died, did it? It’s still alive, isn’t it? Well, that’s what we’re going to do, so he will never be forgotten. We’ll carve The White Prince out on the hillside—he’ll be there forever, and he’ll be white forever too. ”

“It’ll take a bit of time, won’t it?” I said.

“We’ve got plenty, haven’t we?” he replied, with the same smile he had smiled at me when he was a ten-year-old boy asking me if he could come back and mend my kite for me.

? Every spare hour we had, we were up there scraping (刨土) away with spades (鏟子), and we had buckets (桶) to carry away the earth. It was hard, back-breaking work, but it was a labour (勞動(dòng)) of love. We did it, Bertie and I, we did it together—paws, claws, tail, mane, until he was complete and perfect in every detail.

? It was just after we’d finished that the butterflies first came. We noticed that when the sun comes out after the rain in the summer, the butterflies—Adonis Blues, they are, I looked them up – come out to drink on the chalk face. Then The White Prince becomes a butterfly lion, and breathes again like a living creature (動(dòng)物).

? So now you know how Bertie’s white lion became The White Prince and how The White Prince became our butterfly lion.
