阅读理解

Hundreds of years ago, a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots, a brave people, loved their country very much. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland, but there were too many Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win.

One night, the leader of Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. "We will rest here tonight, my men," he said. "Tomorrow we will fight one more battle. We must win or we will die."

They were all very tired, so they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty, but they, too, were very tired, and one by one, also fell asleep.

The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they climbed up the hillside, taking care not to make a sound. Closer and closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more, the war would be over. Suddenly, one of them put his foot on a thistle(蓟). He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a moment, they were on their feet and ready for battle. The fighting was hard but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved their country.

The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles all over it. Few people like it. But the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.

Mr. Hamel picked up a grammar book and read us our lesson. I was surprised at how well I understood it-everything he said seemed so easy! Mr. Hamel had never explained things so patiently. It was as if the poor man wanted to give us all his knowledge in one go.

After grammar, we moved on to writing. For this last day, Mr. Hamel had prepared new examples written in a beautiful style: France, Alsace. Everyone worked hard in dead silence. The only sound was the scratching of pens on paper.

Pigeons (鸽子) cooed softly on the roof. I wondered if they would be forced to sing in

German, too. Mr. Hamel looked at the things around him as if he wanted to remember everything in the small classroom. He had been in this same place for forty years. The desks and chairs were worn with use. The walnut trees in the garden had grown up. The flowers he had planted were now climbing up to the roof.

It must have been sad for the poor man to leave all these things behind. His sister was packing their bags upstairs. They were leaving the country tomorrow.

Mr. Hamel bravely kept on teaching the lesson to the end. After writing, we had history. And at the end of the day, the little children read "BA, BE, BI, BO, BU" together. The old man put on his glasses and read with them. He held his textbook tightly in both hands. His voice was shaking.

Suddenly, the church bell rang. Mr. Hamel got up from his chair. His face was pale, but he had never looked so tall before.

"My friends, I…" But something stopped him. He could only turn around and pick up a piece of chalk. As large as he could, he wrote "…"

"Today's lesson is over. You can go now," he said.

 阅读下面材料,根据文中信息完成以下任务。

任务 A:补全1-4题的信息。每空限填一词。

任务 B:说一说你认为哪个国家的学生午餐更好并说明原因,完成第5题。不得超过10个词。

Do the British eat in the same way as the Chinese? What different habits do they have in eating?

People in the UK do not usually have porridge or noodles for breakfast like the Chinese. They eat bread instead. Hot tea, coffee and milk are their usual breakfast drinks. 

In the UK, lunch is taken at about 1:00 pm, later than that in China. While Chinese people like a hot, filling lunch, many British people today may just have a sandwich, especially if they work in a busy city like London. There are also differences in the way pupils eat lunch. In the past, British children ate hot lunches at school, as most children in China do now, but the food was different. Today, it is more common for British pupils to bring their own lunches to school. They will usually eat a sandwich and a piece of fruit, and drink fruit juice or other soft drinks. Some children like to buy food from shops outside the school, but often this is not allowed. 

The evening meal is the most important meal in both countries. In China people have dinner at about 6:00 pm, and so do many people in the UK. In most families in the UK, there's meat with two or three vegetables and something sweet. But in China, people often have more dishes, and usually with soup.
