A Brave Maid
勇敢的女仆

A wooden vase from the Ming Dynasty at the entrance of the reception hall
amazed everyone. The artists designed it in a rare style and selected valuable
jewels to decorate it. People thought highly of its fancy colour of honey and the
beautiful paintings on it.
The vase used to belong to a former castle. But when the country was at war, the
enemy troops exploded the castle. Debates on how the vase survived went on and on.
In order to remove people’s doubt, a team of no less than 20 people carried out an
informal investigation. The evidences they found showed that a maid took the vase
apart and asked a sailor to sink it in a local well. She never gave away the secret
even under the cruel trial of the enemies who were in search of treasures.
It is worth giving this brave maid a fortune in return.


接待大厅入口处的明朝木制花瓶使每个人都惊奇不已。艺 术家以一种罕有的
风格设计它，并挑选了贵重的珠宝装饰它。人们高度赞赏它那蜂蜜般的奇特颜
色，还有上面绘制的绘画。
这个花瓶曾经属于一座从前的城堡，但在战争期间，敌人的军队炸毁了城< br>堡，于是关于这个花瓶是如何幸存下来的争论就一直在持续着。为了解开人们
的疑问，一个由不少 于20人的调查队开展了一次非正式的调查。他们找到的证
据表明，有个女仆把花瓶拆开，然后让一名水 手把它沉到当地的一个水井里。
她从来没有泄露这个秘密，即使是在搜寻财宝的敌人残酷的审讯下。
这位女仆值得给予一大笔钱作为对她的回报。

A Fair Competition
公平的比赛

Swifter, Higher and Stronger stands for the spirit of the Olympics. But fairness is
the basis of this motto. Only when you win fairly will you and your homeland
deserve the great glory. But nowadays, unlike the ancient honest slave competitors,
some hopeless athletes who can’t bear the pain of training cheat when taking part in
games. Medals seem to have magical power causing them to cheat, and the prize
money has replaced the motto as their only goal.
So, in the gymnastics event to be held in our city next month, one of the host’s
responsibilities is to keep competitions fair. They advertised on posters outside the
stadium to promise that every competitor is to have a regular physical examination
in a gymnasium one after another. No one can bargain on this. The volunteers in
charge will be very strict. It is foolish to cheat because they will not be admitted to
compete and will even be fined as well.



“更快！更高！更强！”代表着奥运精神。但是公平却是这一格言的基础。只有当你公平地赢得比赛，你和你的祖国才会承受这样的光荣。但如今，不像古
代那些诚实的奴隶参赛 者，有些没有希望的运动员无法承受训练的痛苦，于是
在参加比赛时作假。奖牌似乎有某种魔力使他们作 假，奖金也已经代替了奥运
格言成为了他们唯一的目标。

因此，在我们市下个 月即将举行的一场体操赛事中，主办方的其中一项责任就
是要确保比赛的公平。他们在体育场外的海报上 做广告，承诺说每个参赛者都
将在体育馆一个一个地参加常规的身体检查。对此没有人可以讨价还价。负 责
此事的志愿者将非常严格。作假是很愚蠢的，因为他们将不被允许去竞赛，甚
至还将被罚款。

Computers
电脑

The goal of early calculating machines was to simplify difficult sums. But with
the help of new technology, electronic chips replaced tubes and a revolution of
artificial intelligence has arisen. From then on, the appearance of computers
totally changed our lives. They can not only download information from the wet
when connected by the network or mobile phone signals, but also solve different
types of logical problems. With operators as their coaches, they can even control
rockets to explore the moon and instruct androids with the human race’s
characters to mop floors and watch over your naughty niece. Anyhow, computers
are so helpful that they do bring happiness.
However, computers are easily attacked by viruses. This reality has become a
hard-to-deal with-problem. As a result, computers are dangerous in a way. So,
personally, I worry about their universal applications in some fields, such as
finance.

早期计算机器的目的是简化比较难的计算。但是在新技 术的帮助下，电子芯
片代替了电子管，一场人工智能革命由此掀起。从那时起，电脑的出现完全改
变了我们的生活，它们不仅能在网络或移动电话信号的连接下从网上下载信
息，而且可以解决各种类型 的逻辑问题。在操作员的教练下，它们甚至还可以
控制火箭探索月球，指导具有人类性格的机器人擦洗地 板和照顾你调皮的侄
女。不管怎么说，电脑都是如此的有用，以致的确给人们带来了快乐。
然 而，电脑很容易受到病毒的攻击，这一现实已经成为一个难以处理的难题，
结果，电脑在某种程度上是很 危险的。因此，就个人而言，我很担心电脑在某
些领域，例如金融方面的广泛应用。

保护野生动植物
Wildlife Protection

Dinosaurs died out because of an unexpected incident. But wildlife today
disappears or is in danger just because humans do harm to it. For example, tigers are
hunted for fur to make carpets so that they can only live in secure reserves;
grassland is destroyed without mercy so that dust storms come into being affecting
distant cities.
Last year, scientists saw some monkeys rubbing themselves with a certain kind of
insects to protect themselves from fierce mosquitoes biting. According to the
result of the inspection, they found that the insect contains a powerful drug, so local
farmers were employed to catch the insects. The ending was that the insects
disappeared from the whole zone. When told that it was a loss to humans, the farmers
burst into laughter and responded, “Our real loss is our decreasing income.”
We should appreciate the natural balance and pay more attention to the
importance of wildlife protection. Not until we succeed in letting wildlife live in
peace, can we smile in relief.

恐龙因一次意外事件而灭绝，但是今 天的野生动植物却是因为人类的伤害而
消失或处在危险中。例如，老虎被猎杀以获取做地毯的皮毛，以致 它们只能生
活在安全的保护区里；草地被毫不怜悯地破坏，以致沙尘暴开始影响遥远的城
市。
去年，科学家观察到猴子在身上擦某种昆虫来保护自己不受凶猛的蚊子的叮
咬。根据检查的结果 ，他们发现这种昆虫含有一种具有强大效力的药物，于
是，当地的农民都被雇来抓虫子。结果是，这种昆 虫从这整个地区都消失了。
当被告知说这是整个人类的损失时，农民们都突然大笑着回应道：“我们减少 的
收入才是我们真正的损失呢！”
我们应该意识到自然平衡的重要，更加注意野生动植物的保 护。直到我们成
功让野生动植物安详平静地生活，我们自己才能如释重负地笑开颜。

My First Band
我的第一支乐队

I was very sensitive to music. Just dipping into the music books briefly, I could
sing or play well. To be honest, I always dreamt of becoming a famous folk actor. I
was so confident that I never decreased my devotion.
I formed my first band called “Rolling Frog”. At the beginning, we relied on
performing on instruments in pubs or to passers –by to earn extra money in cash.
Then we wore false beards to pretend to be the musicians whom people were
familiar with. In addition, we attached humorous acts to our performances and
played jokes on each other. Soon, our “funny jazz” became famous and invitations
to perform for broadcast stations began to come. Afterwards, we sorted out

attractive music and made a record in a studio. A million or so copies were sold and
we became millionaires.
It was painful that the band broke up finally. But above all, I realized my dream
to be a musician.



我对音乐很敏感，只要简要地浏览一下乐谱，我就能演唱或演奏得很好。说
实话，我 一直都梦想着能成为出名的民间演员，自信的我从未减少过热爱。
我组成的第一支乐队叫做“摇滚蛙” 。开始，我们依靠在酒吧里或向路人表演
乐器来挣些零花的现金。然后我们带上假胡子假扮人们熟悉的音 乐家，除此之
外，我们在表演中加上幽默的动作，互相开着玩笑。很快，我们的“滑稽爵士
乐” 出了名，到广播电台表演的邀请开始多起来。随后，我们把我们吸引人的音
乐做了分类，在一间音乐工作 室录制了1张唱片，大约卖出了100万张，这使
我们都成了百万富翁。
乐队最终的解散让我很心痛，但最重要的是，我实现了自己当音乐家的梦想。
