One day they were reading a story about their great grandfathers: Shinys and Smilys great grandfathers decided to have a race. While Shinys great grandfather went to sleep during the race, Smilys great grandfather won the race by slowly walking towards the finish line. Smily said, “If your great grandfather didnt go to sleep, my great granddad might never win. So his win was not a real win.”The next day there was a notice in the jungle(丛林) newspaper. It said that there would be a race and the winner would win many prizes. The race started from the bears house. From there, the runners had to cross the river. But most of the animals could not both run fast and swim fast. So they didnt know what to do. Shiny and Smily made a plan.Shiny ran, while smily was sitting on his back. He and other animals, like the deer, reached the river side at the same time. But they saw the swift water and stood there because they were worried. None of them liked the idea of crossing the river. Smily quickly got into the water and Shiny sat on his back. Smily started swimming. Soon they reached the other side of the river. Shiny got down from Smilys back and Smily climbed on Shinys back again. Shiny ran fast. They reached the finish line first.“Both of them are the winners.” The president of the jungle said, “Shiny and Smily helped each other during the race and they won.

Teamwork wins (C)There are several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. You can talk to friends who have travelled to the places, you can go and see a film, or you can read travel books.     It seems that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal, subjective (主观的) ideas of travels which the writers have got themselves. These books can be useful if the writers share their travelling experiences with others. The second are those books which give a purely objective (客观的) information of things to be done and seen. If a cultured person has written such a book, then it is even more useful. The third kind are those books which are called “a guide” to some place. If they are good, they will describe and explain the place in detail. I think they are the most helpful for travellers. Like the first kind, they can be exciting and interesting, but their main purpose is to help the reader plan his travel in the most special way.    Whatever kind of travel book you choose, you must make sure that it does not describe everything as “wonderful”, “excellent” or “fantastic”. You must keep an open eyes on its date of publication(出版) because travel is a very practical matter and many things change quickly in the twenty-first century. Finally, you should make sure that it is easy to find the useful information for your travel.( )37. The writer of the first kind of travel book gave his ideas after he .A. travelled B. read books C. heard a lot about travelling D. surfed the Internet( )38. The underlined phrase “a cultured person” means person with .A. a good appearance B. a good education C. a lot of experience D. a lot of money( )39. The date of publication must be noticed because .A. the prices of travel books may be differentB. the writers of travel books may be different C. the information in travel books is always the sameD. the information in travel books is always changing( )40. According to passage, it is best to read before travelling to a place of interest.A. the first kind of travel book B. the second kind of travel bookC. the third kind of travel book D. some travel articles in newspapers四、词汇运用 （本题共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）A) 请根据句义或括号中所给的汉语提示或音标写出单词，使句子意思完整正确。41. -I thought she would be a small and slim lady, but in fact she is the _(pzt).-So you mean she is tall and fat.42.
