A wealthy Persian Prince loved good stories. The older he grew, the fonder he became of th
em. But he always regretted they had to have an end. So he decided to give half his wealth and his beautiful daughter to the man who could tell him a story without an end. Anybody who failed would be sent to prison for life. The risk was so great that nobody came to the palace to tell the Prince a story for a whole year. Then one day, a tall, handsome young man came and said he wanted to tell a story that would go on forever. The Prince agreed but warned him what would happen if he failed. "The risk is worth your fair daughter, " the young man replied poetically (得体地). He then began this well-known story:

" Once upon a time there was a certain King who feared famine. So he ordered his men to build an enormous storehouse, which he filled with corn. Then, when it was up, made water-proof and fire-proof, the King felt happy. But one day he noticed a small hole in the roof and as he looked at it, a locust came out with a grain of corn. A minute later, another locust came out with another grain of corn. Then a third locust with another grain of corn. Then a fourth locust, flying at great speed, pushed through the hole and came out with two grains of corn. Then a fifth locust came and. . . "

"Stop, " shouted the Prince. "I can't, " answered the young man. "I must go on until I tell you what happened to each grain of the corn. " "But that will go on forever. " The Prince protested. "Exactly, " the young man replied, and he smiled as he turned towards the Prince's beautiful young daughter.

The Prince always felt regretted about story because______.

Oh, and I mustn‟ t forget to 34 Spot, our little dog. I was 35 to go off by myself all day, 36 I promised to be careful and took Spot with me for 37.

One day I was out fishing with Spot when we heard a lot of shouting in the 38 followed by a scream and splash. I was a bit 39 so I called Spot and we both hid 40 a bush where we could see but not be 41 . After a few moments, a straw hat came drifting down the river, followed by an oar, a picnic basket and 42 oar. Then came the rowing boat itself, but it was 43 upside down ! A few seconds later my Dad and Auntie June came running 44 the river bank, both wet 45 . Spot started barking so I came out of hiding and said hello. My Dad got really angry 46 me for not trying to catch the boat as it went past. Luckily, 47 , the boat and both the oars had been caught by an overhanging tree a little further downstream, but not the hat or picnic basket. So I had to let them 48 my sandwiches. Dad and Auntie June both made me 49 not to tell Mum what had happened 50 she would be worried.

Inthefallof1924ThomasWolfe,freshfromhiscoursesinplaywritingatHarvardjoinedtheeightortenofu

In the fall of 1924 Thomas Wolfe, fresh from his courses in play writing at Harvard joined the eight or

ten of us who were teaching English composition in New York University. I had never before seen a man

so tall as he, and so ugly. I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and make him

feel at home.

His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness. They spoke of his ability to

explain a poem in such a manner as to have them shouting with laughter or struggling to keep back

their tears, of his readiness to quote in detail from any poet they could name.

Indeed, his students made so much of his power of observation that I decided to make a little test and

see for myself. My chance came one morning when the students were slowly gathering for nine o‘clock

classes.

Upon arriving at the university that day, I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the

English composition teachers as an office. He did not say anything when I asked him to come

with me out into the hall, and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him

to enter alone and look around.

He stepped in, remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out. “Tell me what you see.”

I said as I took his place in the room, leaving him in the hall with his back to the door. Without the

least hesitation and without a single error, he gave the number of seats in the room, pointed out

those which were taken by boys and those occupied by girls, named the colors each student was

wearing, pointed out the Latin verb written on the blackboard, spoke of the chalk marks which the

cleaner had failed to wash from the floor, and pictured in detail the view of Washington Square from

the window.

As I rejoined Wolfe, I was speechless with surprise. He, on the contrary, was wholly calm as he

said, “The worst thing about it is that I‘ll remember it all.”

What is the passage mainly discussing?

A. Thomas Wolfe‘s teaching work.

B. Thomas Wolfe‘s course in playwriting.

C. Thomas Wolfe‘s ability of explaining.

D. Thomas Wolfe‘s genius.

find an end for a story. He sat with his typewriter in front of him, but he had no ideas. So he decided to go to the cinema.
