九、阅读理解
A
During the Tang Dynasty (618—907), Emperor Taizong asked the prime minister (宰相) Feng Deyi to recommend talented people. However, several months passed, Feng didn’t recommend anyone.
“I tried my best, but there are not unusual and perfect people at all,” Feng said.
‘‘People are like utensils(器物). What we need to do is to make good use of their strengths. You cannot excuse yourself for not noticing talented people. How could you say that there are no talented people in our country ” said the emperor.
Indeed, each utensil or tool has its use. A knife is made to cut things while chopsticks are made to pick up food. We can’t use a knife as a chopstick. Like a utensil, each person has a special strength. Nobody is perfect. We can’t expect a person to be good at everything.
With this idea in mind, Emperor Taizong discovered many talented people of different backgrounds. He offered them important positions, which helped them make the best use of their talents. His talented people helped the society develop and created a “golden age”.
A good example is Ma Zhou, who grew up in a poor family. Ma gave a lot of useful advice, so Emperor Taizong offered him a position and promoted him many times. Ma helped the emperor deal with many difficult things and became a well-known person in history.
Chang Sheng, a Chinese teacher, says if a person is talented in one way, we should give them a chance. The same idea can be found in the Analects of Confucius (《论语》). Treating people as utensils shows that we can not only lead people well, but also allow different kinds of people to work well. President Xi Jinping once told this story to officials, asking them to value talented people.
Today, as our work is being divided more and more clearly, the idea still makes sense. If we become leaders someday, we should help others give full play to their strengths. For example, Liu Bang, the founder of Han Dynasty (206BC—AD220), let Zhang Liang and Xiao He work as advisors for their wisdom while inviting Han Xin to lead the army for his war strategies. Known as the ‘‘three heroes of the early Han Dynasty”, they helped Liu build a strong dynasty.

A. There were no talented people then. B. He was afraid of being taken instead.
C. Something was wrong with his standards. D. He wasn’t satisfied with the emperor.
2. Ma Zhou is a good example of people who ________.
A. have no talent but are still useful B. are unusual and perfect
C. know when to take a chance D. show talent in the right field
3. What might be Chang Sheng’s opinion
A. People with any talent should be valued. B. Talented people are difficult to discover.
C. Using people as tools is a very wise way. D. Using people as tools doesn’t work today.
4. What is the main idea of the story

B. Talented people should be valued and put in the right place.
C. A good horse needs to be discovered by wise men.
D. A great talent also needs the great will to succeed.

1. 根据“China was divided into seven kingdoms: Qin, Chu, Zhao, Wei, Han, Yan, and Qi.”和“They waged (发动) many wars, with farmers leaving their fields to fight.”可知，中国当时被分为七个王国，他们发动了很多战争，农民们离开田地去参战，可推测出每个王国都想控制中国，所以才会发动战争。选项G“各国都想统治中国”符合语境。故选G。

4. 根据上文描述了蛤蜊和沙锥的争斗，以及下文“and walked home happily.”可推测出，是有一个人看到了它们的争斗，很容易地就把它们两个都抓住了，然后开心地回家了。选项C“一个渔夫看到了它们的争斗，轻松地抓住了它们”符合语境。故选C。
5. 根据“If we fight with the Yan Kingdom, the big Qin army would join the war later. We and the Yan would be weak from our battles. The Qin would defeat both of us.”可知，赵国统治者明白了其中的利害关系。选项E“因此，赵国统治者放弃了攻打燕国的计划”符合语境。故选E。

A
During the Tang Dynasty (618—907), Emperor Taizong asked the prime minister (宰相) Feng Deyi to recommend talented people. However, several months passed, Feng didn’t recommend anyone.
“I tried my best, but there are not unusual and perfect people at all,” Feng said.
‘‘People are like utensils(器物). What we need to do is to make good use of their strengths. You cannot excuse yourself for not noticing talented people. How could you say that there are no talented people in our country ” said the emperor.
Indeed, each utensil or tool has its use. A knife is made to cut things while chopsticks are made to pick up food. We can’t use a knife as a chopstick. Like a utensil, each person has a special strength. Nobody is perfect. We can’t expect a person to be good at everything.
With this idea in mind, Emperor Taizong discovered many talented people of different backgrounds. He offered them important positions, which helped them make the best use of their talents. His talented people helped the society develop and created a “golden age”.
A good example is Ma Zhou, who grew up in a poor family. Ma gave a lot of useful advice, so Emperor Taizong offered him a position and promoted him many times. Ma helped the emperor deal with many difficult things and became a well-known person in history.
Chang Sheng, a Chinese teacher, says if a person is talented in one way, we should give them a chance. The same idea can be found in the Analects of Confucius (《论语》). Treating people as utensils shows that we can not only lead people well, but also allow different kinds of people to work well. President Xi Jinping once told this story to officials, asking them to value talented people.

For example, Liu Bang, the founder of Han Dynasty (206BC—AD220), let Zhang Liang and Xiao He work as advisors for their wisdom while inviting Han Xin to lead the army for his war strategies. Known as the ‘‘three heroes of the early Han Dynasty”, they helped Liu build a strong dynasty.
1. Why couldn’t Feng Deyi find any talented people in Taizong’s opinion
A. There were no talented people then. B. He was afraid of being taken instead.
C. Something was wrong with his standards. D. He wasn’t satisfied with the emperor.
2. Ma Zhou is a good example of people who ________.
A. have no talent but are still useful B. are unusual and perfect
C. know when to take a chance D. show talent in the right field
3. What might be Chang Sheng’s opinion
A. People with any talent should be valued. B. Talented people are difficult to discover.
C. Using people as tools is a very wise way. D. Using people as tools doesn’t work today.
4. What is the main idea of the story
A. Chances only come to those who are well prepared.
B. Talented people should be valued and put in the right place.
C. A good horse needs to be discovered by wise men.
D. A great talent also needs the great will to succeed.
