    The little mosquito flew onto the lion's face and began biting his nose. There was no fur for protection on his nose. The lion beat his nose with his claws(爪子) to try to kill the little mosquito. But he failed. The more he scratched, the worse his nose got.

The little mosquito was pleased with himself. He flew away proudly. He was so excited that he didn't know where he was going. Finally, he flew straight into a spider's web.

At just age 16, Zhen Xin, from Beijing, finished the "Five Great Mountains Challenge" in August—in only five days. She became the 1 person to do it.

The Five Great Mountains Challenge is about climbing China's five greatest mountains—Taishan Mountain in Shandong, Huashan Mountain in Shaanxi, Songshan Mountain in Henan, Hengshan Mountain in Shanxi, and Hengshan Mountain in Hunan—in 100 days.

2 the hot August weather, Zhen did most of her hiking at night."When you can't see what's coming next, many of your3 and worries go away, You're less likely to back down," Zhen explained.

Zhen said the key 4 hiking is one's mentality. Whenever she came across a vendor booth(货摊) along the hiking road, she would 5 herself to carry on until the next one. And whenever she felt she was about to 6 she would reward herself with a drink or some snacks.

Of all the moutains she climbed, Huashan Mountain stood out as her favorite due to its steeper trails(更陡峭的小径). " They're more 7 than those of the other four mountains," she said. But instead of making her afraid, the challenge 8  her concentration(专注力)。

However, Zhen said the most daunting(令人生畏) like was climbing Taishan Mountain. It was due to the largest tourist rush she had ever seen. "We could only move up one step every five 9 or so, " she recalled.

Zhen decided to climb the five great mountains when she finished middle school. "I wanted something that would allow me to 10 see my growth and changes over time. As I grow older, I want something to share with others," she said.

 阅读下面短文, 从短文后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出能填入相应空白处的最佳选项。

A long time ago, there was a big apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it every day. He climbed to the tree top, ate the apples and took a nap under the shadow. He loved the tree and the tree loved him, too.

 As time went by, the little boy grew up and he no longer played around the tree. One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. The boy told his tree friend, "I want toys. I need money to buy them.""Sorry,I don't have money, but you can pick all my apples and 1 them. So, you will have money." The boy was so excited and picked all the apples and left happily. The boy never came back after that. The tree was 2 .

 One day, the boy who now turned into a man returned and the tree was excited. "I need a(n)3 for my family. Can you help me?""You can cut my branches to build it." So the man cut all the branches of the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy, but the man never came to see the tree since then. The tree was4 again.

 One hot summer day, the man came and talked to the tree. "I am getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?" The tree answered, "Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy." So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and again never came back for a long time.

5 , the man returned after many years. "Sorry, my boy. But I don't have anything for you anymore. The only thing left is my dying roots," the tree said with tears. "I do not need 6 now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years," the man replied. "Good! Old tree roots are the best place for a rest, come and 7 with me."

 This is a story of everyone. The tree is like our parents. When we were 8 , we loved to be with our mum and dad. When we grow up, we9 them, and only come to them when we are in trouble. You may think the boy is cruel to the tree, but that is how many of us treat our parents. We consider their love as a matter of course; we don't appreciate all they do for us until it's too 10 .
