He had never seen them before, so he introduced himself, “My name is Stone, and I am even harder than stone, so do what I tell you, or there will be trouble. Don't try any tricks with me, and then we'll get on well together.” 　　Then he went to the soldiers one after another and asked him his name, “speak loudly so that everyone can hear clearly,” he said, “and don't forget to call me ‘sir’”. Each soldier told him his name, until he came to the last one. This man remained silent, and so Captain Stone shouted at him, “When I ask you a question, answer it. I will ask you again. What is your name, soldier?” 　　This time the soldier had to answer the question. He was very much afraid, but at last he replied in a low voice, “My name is Stone Breaker, sir.” 　�、颍� 　　聽(tīng)力原文： 　　December 25 is Christmas Day. In most countries, it is the most important day in the year. All the parents or their children are very happy. On Christmas Day bells ring everywhere. New Year is coming. People sing and dance day and night. They have a good time. 　　Most families buy a Christmas tree for their children. And there are presents hanging from the tree here and there. People also put presents in children's shoes. Santa Claus is a kind man. He is in red clothes. A big bag is on his back. In the bag, there are a lot of presents. 　　Christmas is also a day when people enjoy all kinds of food. But some poor people have no homes and no food to eat. They even die of cold and hunger on Christmas Day. Have you read the story “A Little Match Girl”? The little girl died on the morning of Christmas Day. 　　Ⅲ． 　　聽(tīng)力原文： 　　Humans can keep healthy each year by going to the doctor for a flu shot(流感疫苗). But birds aren't so lucky. Since late last year, birds across Asia have been getting sick with bird flu. These sick birds have also been causing big problems for people in China and other countries. 　　Chickens-as well as ducks, pigeons and other poultry-can all get bird flu, which is spread from farm to farm through the droppings of wild birds, according to Xinhua News Agency. 　　But even worse, bird flu could also spread to humans. People who catch bird flu will have the usual flu symptoms like fever, cough and sore throat. If they don't see a doctor in time, they could die. 　　The bird flu troubling Asia now is a highly dangerous kind caused by a virus called H5N1. So far, the virus has infected and killed millions of birds in Asian countries including Thailand, Viet Nam and Japan. Nineteen people across Asia have also died from bird flu. In the United States, two cases of bird flu have been found among poultry. 　　Several areas across China have reported cases of bird flu in poultry. However, what scientists worry about most is that a person with human flu might catch bird flu, too. If that happens, experts say the two types of flu together could make an even more dangerous virus, a February 6 China Daily report said. 　　In the same report, scientist Bob Dietz said “The more widespread it becomes, the greater the possibility that the virus could change and infect the human population.” To prevent further spread of the disease, many countries are killing all the ill birds they find.
