Once a king got two nice falcons (猎鹰) from his son. He had never seen such beautiful falcons before. He loved them so much and he ordered the best falconer to train them to fly. After several months, the king came to see how the training was going on. He found that one falcon had already been able to fly high in the sky, while the other was staying on the branch of a tree quietly, just keeping still.

The king called all his falconers together and ordered them to try every way they could to make the other falcon fly. But none of them succeeded. One day while the king was taking a walk in the forest, an idea came to his mind. Maybe someone who knew the natural environment well could solve this problem. He sent for a farmer who lived in the forest into his palace to train it at once. The next morning, the king saw the other falcon flying above in the sky freely. “It’s unbelievable! How could you make it happen?” The farmer replied, “It’s very easy. I just cut off the branch where the falcon rested.” It’s always the same to human beings. We all have “two flying wings” in our hearts as well, but we often don’t seem to notice them and stay where we are just for safety and comfort. We won’t realize we can fly so high and freely until the “branch” we are resting on breaks.

Judge the following sentences true (A) or false (B) according to the passage.

（）56. The king loved the falcons so much that he wanted them to fly.

（）57. A few months later, the two falcons were able to fly freely.

（）58. None of his falconers could succeed making the other falcon fly.

（）59. Finally the king’s son made the other falcon fly in the sky.

（）60. Everyone has “two flying wings” in their hearts like that falcon in the story.

Peter and Handy were brothers. Though they looked the same, they were quite different in their minds and hearts. Peter never cared for people around him. But Handy liked helping people. He liked taking care of his grandparents, doing chores for his mom and dad. His friends and teachers all liked him because he was always ready to lend a hand.

It was summer vacation. Peter and Handy decided to go hiking. Unluckily, they lost their way and couldn’t find each other.

Peter met an old man who begged (乞讨) him for food. Peter refused to share his food with him. Next, he met a little girl who hurt her leg. Again, Peter refused to give any help and went his way. Then, when Handy met the old man, he offered him all the food he had. And when he saw the little girl, he helped her get back to her village. It was evening by the time. The little girl’s parents started to help him look for his brother Peter.

On the other hand, Peter was alone in the dark. He was feeling cold and lonely.

When he met the old man again he ran to him and asked him for help. “Help me! I’m lost! Have you seen my brother? He looks just like me.” The old man looked at Peter and said “Surely I’ve seen that child. But why should I help you? You refused to help me when I was in need. Now go away from here! Disheartened(沮丧的)Peter left the place.

In the morning, he heard a voice calling his name. It was Handy and the little village girl. Peter rushed to him and said “Thank god, I've found you! Now I finally learn that it is important to help others.”
