Once there was a king who offered a prize to the artist who would paint the best picture of peace. Many artists   . The king looked at all the pictures. But there were only two he really liked, and he had to choose     them.
One picture was of a     lake. The lake was a perfect mirror for peaceful high mountains all around it. Overhead was a blue sky with white soft clouds. All that saw this picture    it was a perfect picture of peace.

阅读理解

1. Can you swim? Swimming is one of the most popular activities in summer. It can be learned early in life. Little children can learn to swim as soon as they walk. In fact, you need the same skills in walking as in swimming. However, I believe that five is the best age to learn it. By five or six, a child knows fear of water, a very important thing to know. It’s wise to be afraid. The young understand that the water can sometimes be very dangerous.
When you swim, you should follow certain rules:
★Never swim alone! No matter how good you are in the water, don’t risk drowning by swimming alone. If you swim by yourself, you may get into trouble.
★Don’t go beyond your abilities. Most swimmers know it clearly not to swim too far from the bank or the beach.
★Don’t show off your skills by doing dangerous tricks.
★Don't smoke. Swimming depends on a healthy body.
★Work at any activity that builds muscles (肌肉).
【小题1】Little children can learn to swim as soon as _________ .

A．they can talk

B．they start walking

C．they have no fear of the water

D．they are five or six years old

【小题2】The writer believes it’s very__________for a child to know the fear of water.

A．important	B．useful
C．dangerous	D．bad

【小题3】According to the passage, you should not swim alone because ____.

A．the water is too cold

B．your parents would not be happy

D．you might drown

2. 任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题1分, 满分5分）
阅读下面短文，在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案(每格限填一词)。
Do you have trouble finishing your work within a given time? Do you find yourself having to scramble(艰难完成) through your work because time is running out? It is important to manage your time properly.
First, you should write down your tasks on paper. This is to make sure that you do not miss any of them. Having them written down somewhere ensures(确保) that you will get the task completed even if you forget about it. Of course, you need to make sure that the task list is always within your sight(视野). Make sure you have a clear view of your tasks. You can write them down in a diary.
After you have written down your tasks, it is time to plan your action. Which tasks need not be completed as urgently(急切地)? How much time are you going to give each task? I suggest that you complete the urgent tasks first, but at the same time, be sure to include some time to take breaks in between. The breaks ensure that you have a moment to run away from stress until you return to continue from where you left off.
Above all(最重要的是), however, don’t procrastinate(拖延，耽搁) because it is your number one enemy. Procrastination can also mean that you will not be as focused when you do your work. Time is valuable, so do not waste it by procrastinating. Focus on completing the task and get it over once and for all.

How to finish your work within a given time
Firstly	* Write down your tasks on paper in order not to 【小题1】 any.
	* Make sure you can 【小题2】 your task list at any time.
Secondly	* Complete the urgent tasks.
	* Leave some time for breaks to 【小题3】 yourself.
Most 【小题4】	* Don’t procrastinate or waste your 【小题5】 time.

He took off his sunglasses and put them on the kangaroo and did the same with his jacket. Then he put his arm around the kangaroo and told me to take a photo of them together.

5. It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers (祖先) had lived in the same way for centuries.
Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frogs’ legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.
This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was to catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent to the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn’t last long.
The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if (好像) the crops(庄稼) were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and there seemed to be more insects around lately.
The villagers decided that they couldn’t just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money they’d just had to buy pesticides (杀虫剂) and medicine. Soon there was no money left.
Then the people realized that what was happening. It was the frogs. They hadn’t been useless. They had been doing an important job—eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, soon there were more and more insects. They were doing harm to both crops and people.
Now, the people are still poor. But in the evening they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs.These sounds of night now have a much deeper meaning.
【小题1】Why did the villagers agree to sell frogs?

A．They needed money to buy medicine.

B．They wanted to please the visitors.

C．The frogs were easy money.

D．The frogs made too much noise.

【小题2】What might be the cause of the children’s sickness?

A．The crops didn’t do well.

B．There were too many insects.

C．The visitors brought in disease.

D．The pesticides were overused.

【小题3】What can we learn from the last sentence of the passage?

A．Good old days will never be forgotten.

B．Health is more important than money.

C．The harmony between man and nature is important.

D．Happiness comes from peaceful life in the country.
