An aircraft carrier is like an airport on the sea.It can carry planes and troops to war.Planes fly from the carrier and land back on it，and soldiers work and live on it，too.But building an aircraft carrier is so hard and expensive.It costs a lot of money and needs a large amount of steel and other special materials.For example，a basic aircraft carrier is made of 60，000 tons of steel.It also uses complex （复杂的） technologies.Finally，it takes years to build one.Today，not many countries own an aircraft carrier or have the ability to build one.China has become the seventh country in the world that can build an aircraft carrier by itself after the USA，Russia，Britain，France，Italy and Spain.

Here are some idioms （习语） about pigs for you to study today.
The first interesting idiom to learn is "lipstick （口红） on a pig".You may think this describes a beautiful thing，but it is not true.We use this idiom to say that if we try to make something ugly （难看的） look good，but it is still ugly.Even the most expensive lipstick cannot solve it!
"Pigs might fly" is another popular idiom in daily life.It shows that you do not believe something will ever happen.For example，Rick has been eating fast food for twenty years.But one day，he said he would stop eating it.His friends all laughed and said， "Pigs might fly."
The last idiom is "the guinea pig".In fact，the guinea pig is not a pig.It is a mouse that has short legs.Many children keep animals as pets.But if we say someone is a guinea pig，it means that people make him or her test new ideas or medical treatment （治疗）.
If you don't understand common idioms in English，it'll be hard to communicate deeply with local speakers.
36.What is the first idiom mentioned in the passage？______
A. Lipstick on a pig. B. Pigs might fly. C. The guinea pig.

The hungry children quickly gathered around the basket and started to fight over the bread.But Gretchen，a poorly-dressed little girl，did not join in the fighting.She stood far away quietly and waited until the children left.Then，she took the only loaf in the basket，kissed the old man's hand，and went home.
The next day the children acted the same as before，and poor Gretchen got an even smaller loaf.When she came home and her mother cut the loaf open，many pieces of silver （银子） fell out of it.
Her mother was very much alarmed （惊恐的），and said， "Take the money back to the good old man at once.It must have got into the bread by accident （偶然地）."
As the little girl gave the money to the old man，he said， "No no，my child，it was no mistake.I put the silver pieces into the smallest loaf to reward （奖赏） you.Always stay as happy and thankful as you are right now.Go home now，and tell your mother that money is your own."
