26、There was once a spider(蜘蛛) that lived in a cornfield (玉米田). She liked this home and planned to stay there for the rest of her life.
One day, the spider caught a little bug in her web. Just as the spider was about to eat him, the bug said: “If you let me go, I will tell you something important that can save your life.”
The spider thought for a little while and listened. “You’d better get out of this cornfield,” the little bug said. “The harvest is coming!”
“I think you are just telling me a story,” the spider said with a smile.
“Oh no, it is true,” the little bug said. “All the stalks (茎杆) will be knocked down, and the corn will be gathered up. You will be killed by the giant machines if you stay here.”
“I don’t believe you,” the spider said as she ate the little bug for lunch.
A few days later, the spider was laughing about the story the little bug had told her. She thought to herself: “A harvest! What a silly idea. I have lived here all of my life, and nothing has ever disturbed (打扰) me.”

27、 Years ago, we were, asked to create a newspaper in groups about world culture in our history class.
We first wrote the names of three friends we wanted in our group. Unluckily, Mrs. Bartlett, our teacher, didn't put me in the group with any of my friends. Instead, I was with Mauro, who never spoke English, Juliette, who always wore thick glasses and Rachel, who wore strange clothes. I had never talked to them. Oh, how badly I wanted to be with my friends!
I was so sad that I walked up to Mrs. Bartlett. "I know what you want, Karina, " she gently patted me on my shoulder, "but your group needs a leader. I need you to help them get a passing grade on this project. Only you can make it."
I was shocked.
"Will you help them?" she asked.
"Yes, " I replied. I couldn't believe it came out of my mouth, but it did.
I bravely walked to my group and started our project. We had different tasks according to our interests. Gradually, 1 felt myself enjoying their company. I found out Mauro was struggling with English. Behind Juliette's thick glasses were her sparkling eyes. Rachel was so creative that she wanted to be a fashion designer. I realized that they were not strange; they were just people that no one cared enough for-except Mrs. Bartlett. Her thoughtfulness brought out the best in the four of us.
I learned something that week. I was given a chance to see other people in a new light. I learned that who we, are is more important than what we are or seem to be.
Mrs. Bartlett gave us an A on that project, but thought we should have handed it right back, for she was the one who truly deserved it.
【1】Karina badly wanted to be with her friends because she thought ___________.
A.her friends took great interest in history
B.her group mates knew little about world culture
C.it would be easy for her friends to create newspapers
D.it would he hard to communicate with her group mates
【2】What can we learn about Karina's group?
A.Juliette didn't like her thick glasses. B.Mauro had trouble in speaking in public.
C.Karina was made the leader of her group. D.Rachel wanted to be a pop star in the future.
【3】From the story, we know Mrs. Bartlett is _____________________ .
A.thoughtful B.creative C.honest D.strict
