There once was a little boy who wanted to meet the king. He set off, walking towards the king’s castle. After many years of walking, the king’s castle came into his view. However, as the boy drew closer to the outside of the castle, the guards noticed him.

“Get out of here!” ordered the guards.

Well, the little boy didn’t have to be told twice. He turned…and ran. All he wanted to do was to tell the king wonderful things, and see all the beautiful things in the king’s house. But he couldn’t even get near the castle! The boy finally stopped running, sat down and cried.

A young man happened to be coming down the path at the very moment. He saw the little boy and stopped. “What’s wrong, young man?” he asked.

“Sir, I walked and walked just to see the king. But these guards made me scared. I wanted to tell the king how lovely everything is and just tell the king that I just wanted to see him!”

The man looked at the little boy thoughtfully. “Look, why don’t you try again? I’ll come with you this time.”

The little boy got up and took the man’s hand. The king’s guards spotted them.

“Look, mister, we don’t have to do this…I don’t want you to get hurt. We can just turn around now.”

The man held the little boy’s hand and went on. The boy really thought the man might be crazy until he looked back up at the guards. They were all smiling now. The little boy was amazed.

“Who are you?” asked the little boy in astonishment.

“Why, I’m the king’s son. You can enter the castle and be with the king.” Said the man.

The little boy broke into a huge smile.

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。

A

It’s interesting that technology often works as a servant for us，yet frequently we become a servant to it．E-mail is a useful tool but many feel controlled by this new tool．The average business person is getting about 80 e-mails per day and many feel that about 80% of the messages in their “Inbox” are of little or no value．

So，I have four suggestions to help you to become better at “Erasing E-mail”．

1．Get off the lists．The best way to deal with a problem is to never have it．If you are receiving a lot of unwanted e-mails，ask to be removed from the various lists．This would include your inclusion in unwanted lists．

2．“Unlisted address”．Just as you keep an “unlisted” telephone number that you share only with those whom you want to have direct access to，you might want to get a separate e-mail address only for the important communications you wish to receive．

3．Check it once or twice per day．Many I speak with are becoming chained to their email server，monitoring incoming email continuously．Maybe this is because e-mail creates its own sense of urgency，but most of the communications are not all that urgent．I respond to them a couple of times per day．

4．Deal with it．As you open each e-mail，do one of the following:

a．If it requires a quick response，respond to it and delete it．

b．If it requires a response but is not the best use of your time，try to find someone else to do it．

c．If it is going to take any serious amount of time to respond，schedule it for action in your Day Planner and then download the message，save it，or print it out for future action．

I personally receive about 250 e-mails per day and by practicing the suggestions above，I can handle that volume in about an hour，taking advantage of this fantastic tool but not being controlled by it to make sure I’m doing more important tasks in my day．

1.If you get unwanted e-mails，the best you can do is to ________．

A．make a list of them

B．put them into unwanted lists

C．send them to a special address

D．a(chǎn)sk to be deleted from different lists

2.For the important communications，the writer suggests that you ______．

A．have a direct access for them

B．have several e-mail servers for them

C．get a separate e-mail address for them

D．get an unlisted phone number for them

3.To avoid being chained by the coming e-mails，what you can do is to ________．

A．respond urgent ones only

B．reply to all of them at the same time

C．handle them a couple of times daily

D．keep replying to e-mails all day long

4.To deal with an e-mail you get，you can do the following EXCEPT _______．

A．responding right away if it’s urgent

B．downloading every e-mail before you reply

C．scheduling it for later reply if it takes much time

D．a(chǎn)sking someone else to reply to it if it’s not at your convenience

閱讀下列列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中, 選出最佳選項。并在答題卡上將該選項涂黑．

I was twenty-two, and in Bolivia. I’d been to every other country in South America, and now I was set on getting into Chile, the last on the list.

After several days, I reached the hills. It was cold, and even the distant mountains were clear. The days were lonely, but one evening I met Filomeno and his fellow teachers. They tried to persuade me not to go to Chile, saying it was a bad place, and that I would be killed. I didn’t believe them. I knew nothing of the current politics; I just wanted to go there.

So I walked into the mountains, feeling excited, and came to a sign with the word "Chile" on it. A frightening soldier appeared, stuck a gun in my back, and pushed me down a slope to the police station. The police chief then told me, "There’s nothing for you here." I explained that I had come to see this beautiful country. But he was annoyed.

In the evening they filled me with food. There was laughter, and I was less tense. Then the police chief took me to a tiny cell. I lay down on the mattress (墊子). Even though I had no light and none of my possessions, I felt euphoric. At least I had arrived! And what a story I’d have to tell! The next morning I was released, and I was told that Chile didn’t want me. Throwing my belongings into my backpack, I shouted and screamed at the soldiers. After all this effort I was being sent home! I stomped (以重踏步方式走) towards Bolivia expecting to feel a bullet. But I’d be back! I told myself.

1.The author went to Chile to ______.

A. visit his friend Filomeno B. settle there forever

C. complete his trip plan D. risk his life

2.The underlined word "euphoric" in Paragraph 4 most probably means "______".

A. terrible B. shamed C. bored D. excited

A. he was prevented from entering Chile

B. he was badly treated by the soldiers in Chile

C. it was his last chance to travel

D. his friends had stopped him from going to Chile

4.What is the passage mainly about?
