三、阅读理解
In ancient China, a woman told the best stories. She married the emperor (皇帝). Sadly, one day, this woman became ill and died. The emperor was very sad. He spent more and more time in his garden, and less and less time caring for the needs of his people. Everyone in the kingdom was worried.
One day, a priest (牧师) passed when some children were playing with their dolls. The dolls made dancing shadows on the wall. This gave the priest an idea. He knew the stories the emperor’s wife used to tell. Why not bring those stories to life
The priest made a puppet out of bits of clay (黏土). He painted the puppet to look somewhat like the emperor’s wife. When the puppet was finished, the priest silently walked into the emperor’s garden, carrying his puppet, a candle, and a curtain. He placed the curtain near the emperor’s chair. He placed his candle, his puppet, and himself behind the curtain. He waited for the emperor to appear.
The emperor did not even notice the curtain at first. The dancing shadow drew his eyes. As the priest moved the puppet behind the curtain, he told wonderful stories as the emperor’s wife did. It seemed as if his wife was spending time with him. The emperor was no longer sad. At the end of each busy day, the emperor went into his garden to visit his shadow wife. That is how shadow puppets first began.
1. Why did everyone in the kingdom feel worried
A. Because the emperor was too sad to care about his country.
B. Because the emperor couldn’t hear the stories any more.
C. Because the emperor’s wife died.
D. Because the emperor always worked in his garden.
2. How did the priest get a good idea
A. From the curtain.
B. From the wall.
C. From the shadow of dolls.
D. From the story.
3 What did the priest do to make the emperor NOT sad
A. He dressed as the emperor’s wife to draw the emperor’s attention.
B. He told stories that the emperor’s wife had told by playing the puppet.
