阅读理解

   Once upon a time, a young man wanted to go to a village on business. Halfway there was a mountain. Before he left home, his family reminded him of staying calm even in face of beasts(野兽) and just climbing onto trees. So they couldn't do anything to him.

    The young man took the words into his heart and left alone. He walked for a long time carefully and found no beasts were out there. He thought his family's worries were unnecessary. He put his mind at ease and walked happily. At this right moment, he saw a big tiger running to him and he rushed into a tree.

    The tiger roared around the tree. It even jumped to reach the man. The young man, who was supposed to hold the branch tightly, fell off the tree just because of panic and right fell on the back of the tiger. He had to hold the tiger closely, which was scared and started running away at once.

    A passerby didn't figure it out at the sight and said in admiration(羡慕), "How cool the man riding the tiger is! He is like a superman!"

"Just because you can't see something, that doesn't mean it's not there." This old saying is quite meaningful for British artist Willard Green. The items he creates are so tiny that most of them fit on the head of a pin (针). You can see them clearly through a microscope (显微镜).

At every one of his art shows, people always ask the same question, ""

The answer is "Very, very carefully." So carefully, in fact, that he actually slows his breath down and works in between breaths. Willard usually works patiently under a microscope using special tools that he creates. To paint his works, he uses the hair from a fly(苍蝇) as a paintbrush.

Creating these detailed works is a very long and difficult process, and it isn't always enjoyable. "It is a terrible dream when I start but a nice dream when I finish," he says. A single item can take at least several weeks to complete.

People have asked Willard why he chose to do something that needed effort and took time. When he was young, Willard was not a strong student. He had difficulty in reading and spelling words. Some kids used to call him a loser. This made him feel small, so working on little things helped him to feel big. The smaller his work got, the bigger he felt. A newspaper reporter said, "Though his works of art are small, Willard is a great artist!"

 阅读下面短文, 掌握其大意, 然后从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

 Last year in early summer, I was walking up the hill to my house when I saw two birds, each about 60 centimeters tall, standing on the path. They didn't seem to 1 me until I was right in front of them and then they at once moved 2 into the bushes.

I was quite excited by the idea of two birds making a nest in my front yard, although I didn't really expect it 3 wild birds don't usually nest so close.

A few weeks later, the birds4 again. I found them crouching(蜷缩) beside a tree off to the side of the path. As I moved nearer to them,I imagined that they would 5 like they did last time. But 6 they stuck out their heads and made a threatening(威胁的) croaking(呱呱叫) sound. It seemed to warn me not to go any7 .

I didn't know 8 they were croaking at me until a short time later I made an amazing discovery they had 9 small baby birds.

As I moved quietly towards the birds,10 not to make any sudden movements, they started their croaking again. They straightened their necks forward so 11 seemed longer and more threatening. The mother carefully crouched down over the two chicks, and 12 them well in her feathers.

I was watching them with 13 when I suddenly tripped and fell to the ground. The birds took this as a threat and the father raced towards me, spreading his14 to protect the mother and the chicks while making himself appear larger.

I was15 to have surprised them and left quickly. I was amazed by their fearless actions. Their parental natural ability kicked in and made them so brave. It is hard not to respect nature.
