There was once a little orphan (孤儿) girl who had no family and no one to love her. She felt sad and lonely.
One day, while she was walking in a garden, she noticed a small butterfly caught in a thornbush (荆棘丛). The more the butterfly tried to free itself, the deeper the thorn cut into its body. The girl carefully helped the butterfly out. Instead of flying away, the little butterfly changed into a beautiful fairy (仙女).
“For your wonderful kindness,” said the fairy, “I will grant (保证) you any wish you like.”
The little girl thought for a while and replied: “I want to be happy!”
“Very well!” The fairy leaned toward her and whispered (耳语) in her ear. Then the good fairy disappeared.
As the little girl grew up, she stayed happy. Everyone asked her the secret of her happiness. She would only smile and answer: “The secret of happiness is that I listened to a good fairy when I was a little girl.”
When she was very old and on her deathbed, her neighbors were afraid that her secret of happiness would die “Tell us, please,” they begged. “Tell us what the good fairy said.”with her.
The lovely old woman simply smiled and said: “She told me that everyone, no matter how secure (安稳的) they seemed, how old or young, how rich or poor, had need of me.”
| A．It saved itself. | B．It got cut deeper. |
| C．It got tired. | D．It was killed. |
| A．Because the girl begged her to do so. |
| B．Because it was the fairy’s job. |

| B．By giving her a big house. |
| C．By helping her find her parents. |
| D．By telling her how to stay happy. |
| A．Being needed by others. |

The shock of the recent earthquake in Pakistan has brought another shock: the rise of a small island coming out from the water.
In the aftershock of the earthquake, people living in Gawadar, near the southwest coast, began to see a strange sight. They looked out into the Arabian Sea and saw a mountain-like shape coming out of the water. “I could see this gray, dome-shaped (穹顶形状的) body in the distance, like a giant whale,” Bahram Baloch, a local journalist, told the BBC. “Hundreds of people had gathered to watch it in disbelief (怀疑).”
So what happened? The earthquake measured 7.7 in magnitude (地震级数). The force was so strong that it moved the sea floor, releasing gas. This gas pushed the seabed, mostly rock and sand, upward and out of the water. This is how mud volcanoes (泥火山) are formed. The island that measures about 20 meters high, 30 meters long and 90 meters wide is actually the tip of the mud volcano.
Is it safe? Although people have visited this new island, scientists have found dangerous gas coming from the newly formed island. “Our team found bubbles rising from the surface of the island, which caught fire when a match was lit,” said Mohammad Danish, a scientist, to Universe Today.
These mud volcanoes are not rare. But it’s striking because this one has popped up(突然出现) in a populated (有人居住的) area, and not far out in the sea. However, it’s not expected to last very long. Most of these mud volcanoes are swept back under the sea within one year.
| A．A strange light. | B．A blue whale. |
| C．A mysterious island. | D．A mountain. |
| A．Dangerous gas was released. |
| B．Rock and sand were mixed. |
| C．The storm blew up the sea. |
| D．Huge waves appeared. |
| A．建议 | B．顶端 | C．小费 | D．倾斜 |
