He brought some back to the oldest man in his village, who had been his teacher before. After a four-day journey he sent the water to the old man who took a deep drink, smiled warmly and thanked his student for the sweet water. The young man returned to his village happily. The next day, the teacher let another student taste the water. He spat it out, saying it was awful. It went bad because it had stayed in the old leather container(皮革容器) for so many days in such hot weather. The student asked his teacher why he pretended(假装) to like the awful water. The teacher replied, You only tasted the water. I tasted the gift. The water was simply the container for love and kindness. And nothing could be sweeter than these.I think we understand this lesson best when we receive small gifts of love from very young kids. Whether its a slice of bread or a piece of colored paper, the natural and right response(反应) is to show our thanks and happiness because we get love from the gift.To show our thanks doesnt always come naturally. Unfortunately, most children and many adults only see the thing itself. They never feel the meaning of the thing. We should tell ourselves and teach our children about showing thanks and happiness to the persons who give the gifts from their hearts because gifts from the heart are really gifts of the heart. （1）Where did the young man find the water?A . In a springB . In a river.C . In a lake.D . In a village.（2）How long did the water stay in the old leather container?A . Six days.B . Five days.C . Four daysD .

They thought planes and boats passing through here were likely to disappear. By 1964, a writer had called the area the Bermuda Triangle. The name stuck, and so did the mystery.In 1945, five US Navy planes, called Flight 19 took off from Florida and never came back. After they disappeared into the Bermuda Triangle, different ideas had begun to spread that the area was a dangerous place. Even before this famous flight, several ships had disappeared in these waters. People had many different ideas about why this appended. Some people even believed that a huge octopus (章鱼) was responsible!However, scientists believe that weather is part of the problem. Unusually shaped clouds above the area create strong winds that go down into the water, creating huge tsunami (海啸) waves that can take down boats or low-flying planes. And many researchers believe that theres no mystery, at all Ship goes down and plane accidents happen all over the world. It just seems to happen more in the Bermuda Triangle because theres more traffic.The Bermuda Triangle is also one of the deepest areas of the Atlantic, with some areas being 8 km (5 mi.) deep. So, remains are hard to find which makes the disappearances seem even more mysterious. In 2011, the Flight 19 planes were found, showing that they didnt completely disappear. But no matter how much evidence（证据） there is that the Bermuda Triangle is no more dangerous than any other part of the ocean, many still believe that you mustnt go there.（1）The third paragraph mainly tells us about the .
