But the three ladies gave her nothing. They only asked, “Tell me, old woman, who of us has the most beautiful hands?” “I shall tell you a little later,” the old woman said and walked away.
A peasant (农民) woman was also sitting by the river. She was poor and her hands were dark because of hard work. The old woman came up to her and said, “I’m hungry. Please give me something to eat. “ The peasant woman took out her a piece of bread and gave a half of it to the old woman.
The old woman ate it and drank some water. Then she took the peasant woman by the hand, brought her before the rich ladies and said, “Now, I shall tell you whose hands are the most beautiful. The hands of the poor peasant woman are dark because of work, but they give me food; they are far more beautiful ,because your hands do nothing. ”

of the reform program, it will allow primary schools to enroll students aged under 6, the country's present
age of admission. While some people applaud it, this might not necessarily be a helpful revision.
Once the current six-year-old limitation is cancelled (取消), no parents will want to send their children
to school at that age while other children enter school at younger age. As a result, Chinese children will
have to go to school increasingly early.
The earlier they are sent to school, the less freedom young children will enjoy. They will be thrown into
endless examinations. While their heads become filled with knowledge, their simple happiness will decrease.
This is harmful for their growth, especially when they are thrown into the rigors of a curriculum before
they are five years old.
In countries such as Germany and Australia, parents all hope to send their children to school at an older
age when they have developed more fully physically and psychologically.
The current fixed schooling age is an effective mechanism to protect children against harm brought on
by early schooling. If it is broken, Chinese children might again face a more stressful childhood.
B. 6; 6
C. 5; 5
D. 4; 4

Each year, thousands of Chinese middle school students go to study in foreign countries. Recent research shows among 428 middle school students in Shanghai, nearly half of them would like to study abroad(国外). "Chinese children are eager to go abroad to get a wider view, less academic (学业) competition or even family honour," said Chen Yi, a Chinese writer who has lived in the USA for 16 years. "But life in foreign countries can be hard for young people."
"We have to face the culture shock(差异) and language problems," said Hong Guang, a Chinese student in London. However, these are not always the most difficult things to overcome. To most children, controlling themselves when studying alone in a foreign country is a big challenge.
Zhang Jia, a 16-year-old student from Shanghai, entered high school in Melbourne, Australia last October. To his surprise, his teachers there seldom pushed students to study. And usually there wasn't much homework. Some of his friends spent their whole year's money in the first two months of the new term.
"Studying abroad at a young age can help students learn foreign languages quickly and broaden their minds, but students and parents should know about the challenges," Chen said.

(53) If students want to study alone in a foreign country, what is the most difficult thing to them?
A. Money. B. Culture shock. C. Language. D. To control themselves well.
(54) Why do students in Australia have more free time than in China?
A. Because teachers never pushed them to study.
B. Because students don't have much homework.
C. Because all the subjects they learn are too easy to them.
