“I am sorry”answered Aidan,“If my donkey were here,you could of course use it but it is not“Oh?”said the woman,“It was here last night.I saw it behind your house.Where is it now?”“My wife took it into town early this morning.”Replied Aidan.
Just then the donkey brayed(嘶叫) loudly.“What you said is not true!”the woman said angrily,“I can hear your donkey.You should be ashamed of yourself,telling lies(谎言) to your neighbor!”

Should you just spend more money on gifts to show how much you care?A study has shown that spending more doesn't always make it a popular gift.The study found that the more expensive a gift is,the more givers expect recipients(接受者) to thank for it .But while givers thought spending more means more care,recipients didn't always feel like that.
When givers give gifts,they are looking forward to the moment they give the gifts and see the smiles on the recipients' faces right in that moment.But what recipients care about is how much value(价值) they're going to get from the gift over a longer time.
To shop better,starting with something you have in common with the recipient.You should focus on what you share and choose a gift from there.For an even better gift,think about a common interest you share and buy something that your recipient can experience ---like concert tickets or a cooking class.This kind of gifts can bring you and the recipient closer.
If you have nothing in common,though,the simplest way to make a person feel happy with a gift is asking them what they want.People want to surprise the recipient,but the best gift will be whatever it is they say they want.
40.The more givers spend on a gift,the more they expect the recipients_______
< be thankful
< be surprised
< share it

A.what the givers have experienced
B.how much the givers spend on the gifts

C篇
Thousands of years ago,Britain was covered by thick forests,home to many animals which no longer live in the United Kingdom.There were wolves and bears,many different kinds of deer and soon.There were less than four million people,living in small villages where they
build wooden(木制的) walls to keep the big animals outside.
All this has changed.Now the population(人口) of Brian has grown up a lot and three-quarters of Britain are fields(田地) ,towns or cities.New ways of farming also mean that there are fewer birds and small animals living in fields than ever before.
Some scientists say that Britain needs to become more natural again.They suggest that trees and plants should be allowed to grow again.They even say that large wild animals which have not lived in the UK should be helped to come back and live wild.They call this“rewilding(再野生化)”.
Not everyone agrees.In the last twenty years,over one million trees have been planted and there are plans for more.But wild animals?Some people ask what if some wild animals like wolves will hurt small animals or even humans.They are also angry that rewilding might mean an end to walking in the hills which so many people enjoy.So far there are no wolves or bears in Britain's forests--but soon there might be.
44.Thousands of years ago,villagers keep away from wild animals by_______.
A, growing up in population
B.using new farming ways
C.building wooden walls
45.To help rewild Britain ,scientists suggest ________.
B.keeping the big animals outside
C.building more towns and cities

On the first floor,sugar is poured into a moving belt,and carried up to the fifth floor of the building.There keeps everything they need.
The first step is powdering(粉碎) the sugar. The machines are put on the fifth floor to cut the sugar into very thin pieces.
As soon as the sugar is powdered,it was poured into blenders on the fourth floor.Then,mix it together and place in drying units before being passed into another units,where mint oils are added.
On the third floor,put the mix into a special machine.To shape each piece of candy,14000 pounds(磅) is a must, making it hard enough.After the mints are shaped,they are passed on to next machines to get packed(包装) ,also on the third floor.
