【题目】The national college entrance exam, or gaokao, is an important exam for Chinese students. In the past, students who performed well in the areas of sports or science would receive 20 bonus points(加分) on the test. But starting from this year, this bonus will no longer be .

A.independentB.availableC.endangered

【答案】B

【解析】

句意：国家大学入学考试，或者说高考，是中国学生的一项重要考试。过去，在体育或科学领域表现出色的学生在考试中会获得20分的加分。但从今年开始，这种加分将不再可用。

考查形容词。independent独立的，自主的；available可用的；endangered使遭危险，危及。结合句意可知，but表转折，也就是现在不再加分了，此空是“可用的”意思，应填available，故选B。

【题目】 Once Louis the Twelfth, the King of France, happened to walk into the kitchen of his palace. There he found a small boy busy at work and singing happily.

The boy had bright eyes, and a happy, sunny face, and his looks and manners pleased the king. With a smile Louis asked him his name. He replied that his name was Simon. In answer to further questions, the king learnt that the boy was an orphan: both his father and mother were dead.

“Are you content to do this kind of work?” the king asked, pointing at the bowls which the boy was washing. “Are you willing to spend your time in the kitchen when so many of the others work upstairs?"

“Why not?” answered the boy, with a twinkle in his eyes. “I am doing as well as the best of them. The king himself can do no better.”

“Indeed!” said the king, no little surprised at the boy's words. “How do you know that?”

“Well, sir, the king lives, and so do I. I am content with my life. Can the king say that he is content with his life?”

Louis walked away, and his mind was full of strange, sad thoughts. No one knew better than he did that kings seldom feel content.

The next day, much to Simon's surprise, he was called by the king. He was still more surprised when he found that his visitor of the day before was Louis himself. The king talked with him about many things, and found him to be a very quick and clever boy.

After that Simon was made to serve the king directly. Step by step, he rose from one important task to another, until he became one of the best soldiers of that time. He is known in history as General La Roche, and considered as one of the greatest men in France.

If Simon had not, early in life, learnt to be content with his life, he might never have been given those chances. The king did not want people who were always unhappy because they did not have as good a place as some others. You cannot too soon learn that only those who are content are happy.
