He was so proud of his stories that he showed them to many people. Although the people didnt like the stories, they were afraid to say that. Instead, they all said his stories were good. One day he showed his stories to a well-known critic (评论家). The critic said that they were bad. The king got very angry and sent him into prison. After some time the king sent his men to the critic to tell him that he was free. When the critic returned from the prison, the king invited him to his palace to dinner. Again he showed him some of his stories and again asked him what he thought of them. The critic said nothing but turned to the soldiers, who were standing behind him, and said, “Please take me back to prison.” 36. People praised the kings stories because _. A. they hoped to get a lot of money B. they wanted to make the king happy C. the stories were indeed well written D. they knew nothing about story-writing 37. By saying “Take me back to prison”，the critic meant that _. A. the kings stories were very bad B. he had enjoyed the life in prison C. he enjoyed reading stories in prison D. he couldnt understand the stories 38. We may conclude from the story that the critic _. A. did not love his country at all B. was good at writing storiesC. would be set free by the king D. was an honest and brave personBDid you know the meaning of a word may change over time? Many English words we know now had different meanings a long time ago. One example is the word “nice”. Around the year 1300, “nice” was first used in English to mean “stupid”. Two hundred years later, “nice” began to carry a “better” meaning. If people said a book was written “nicely”, they meant the book was written “clearly” or “carefully”，not “stupidly”. After 1800, “nice” began to take its meaning like “kind” or “friendly”. Since then，people have thought of “nice” as a word with good meanings. A good change of a words meaning like this example of “nice” is called AMELIORATION. Though we dont use nice to mean “stupid” any more, it is fun to know how much a words meaning can change from its start! For more examples of AMELIORATION，see next page. 39. 1300 years ago, a “nice person” was believed to be _. A. careful B. friendly C. stupid D. clever 40. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. What nice used to mean. B. Why the meaning of nice changed. C. How long nice has been used. D. How the meaning of nice changed over time. 41. AMELIORATION means a words meaning _. A. can change from its start B. changes from bad to good C. changes from good to bad D. remains the same over a long time 42. Which of the following is most likely to appear on the next page? A. The word“terrific”used to mean “terrible”, but now it means “excellent”. B. The word“silly”used to mean “happy”, but now it means “stupid”. C. You may wonder why a words meaning changes over time. D. Besides AMELl0RATION, a words meaning may change in other ways.

DBest known as an author of fairy tales (童话), Hans Christian Andersen (18051875) wrote such childrens stories asThe Ugly Duckling, The Little Mermaid, and The Emperors New Clothes.

He would give his cuttings not only to children but also to grown-ups. When his writing became famous, these gifts were even more valued.Now more than 100 years old, many of Andersens fine paper cuttings still exist in a museum in Denmark devoted to his works.
