3.Butterfly's WingsOne day a small opening appeared on a cocoon(茧子) a man sat and watched for the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole.Then it seemed to stop making any progress.It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.So the man decided to help the butterfly,he took a pair of scissors and cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon.
The butterfly then emerged easily.
But it had a swollen body and small,shriveled (皱缩的)wings.The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that,at any moment,the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body,which would contract in time.Neither happened!In fact,the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings.It was never able to fly.What the man in his kindness and haste did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were God's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life.If God allowed us to go through our life without any obstacles,it would cripple (使跛)us.We would not be as strong as what we could have been.
I asked for strength,
And God gave me difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for wisdom,
And God gave me problems to solve.
I asked for courage,
And God gave me danger to overcome.
I asked for love,
And God gave me troubled people to help.
I received nothing I wanted,
I received everything I needed.

分析 本文通过讲述一个人出于好意人为的把蝴蝶从茧中解救了出来,结果却由于蝴蝶少了破茧成蝶的过程,使得它永远也飞不起来的故事,旨在告诉我们:有时不必要的帮助是有害的,成功的路上需要经历一些困苦与磨难.
解答 答案:
56.A small opening/hole 细节理解题 根据第二段中的第一句"One day a small opening appeared on a cocoon"可知,在一个茧子上出现了一个小的开口或小洞;故答案为:A small opening/hole.
57.The man decided to help the butterfly 细节理解题 根据第二段中的"So the man decided to help the butterfly"可知,那个人决定帮帮这只蝴蝶;故答案为:The man decided to help the butterfly.
58.No,it wasn't./No,it couldn't. 内容归纳题 通读第四段以及根据本段中的"It was never able to fly."可知,虽然这只蝴蝶在那个人的帮助下,很容易地从茧子里出来了,但由于它的身体肿胀,翅膀小而皱缩在一起,使得它永远也飞不起来了;故答案为:No,it wasn't./No,it couldn't.
59.Struggles./Difficulties./Obstacles. 细节推理题 根据上文讲到了蝴蝶由于缺少了挣扎的过程,使自己永远也飞不起来的故事,可推测第五段中的"Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life"的意思应是:有时候,挣扎正是我们生活中所需要的;此处的"挣扎"也可以理解为:在我们生活中所遇到的困难以及被设立的障碍;故答案为:Struggles./Difficulties./Obstacles.
