When you are too sick or tired to eat, would you enjoy a bowl of ramen It wouldn't matter how good the ramen is any more-you wouldn't enjoy it anyway.
If the boss decides to give you another bowl of the world's best ramen and lets you invite someone to eat for free. But you do not have any loved ones to invite-not even a close friend. Your feelings of loneliness will make the ramen tasteless as well.
Ramen is like the expensive things that many of us think we want in life. Nice cars, expensive houses and beautiful clothes. They are nice to have, but we shouldn't forget that the most important things in life are our health and our loved ones. We must first take good care of our health and our loved ones before we worry about having nice things.
Being rich is not always about having more money; it can also come from the heart. Having a rich heart is about finding inner (内心的) peace. Once you have made it, you will be thankful for what you have and be less worried about what you don't have. Or all the riches in the world will not be able to fill your heart.
The next time you are enjoying a bowl of delicious ramen with a loved one or a close friend, think about how lucky you are. When life brings you difficult problems and challenges, remember
that these same people are there for you to help you get past difficult times.
34. According to Paragraph 1&2, we can know that____________.
A. health and loved ones are important
B. no one can have a bowl of free ramen
C. eating ramen makes you feel less lonely
D. having ramen with lots of friends is tiring

Whenever we think about something, most of us have a feeling of words going through our minds. However, if you stop and try to listen to your own thoughts, you'll notice that they are not in order at all. It's easy to imagine that we think in the language that we speak, but this is completely wrong. Language can show the results of our thinking, but it's not the thinking itself.
Getting the joke
Think about what happens when you "get" a joke: "I've decided to sell my Hoover (吸尘器).. .well, it was just collecting dust (灰尘)." Whether you laugh or not, you react (反应) at once. Then you try to put into words what the joke actually is.
Another example is the thinking you need when playing a fast-moving video game. You might shout "Yes!"or "Got you!". But if you had to talk about all your plans aloud, your game play would slow down. Thoughts always come first and the expression of our thoughts in words comes later.
Thinking in silence
Humans think about things without language all the time, and only report their thoughts in the language when they have time to do so. You can test this with a game. Read a word quickly, out loud or in your head. You'll find that while you're doing this, you won't be able to think with words, but you can still plan, reason and imagine, pretty much as normal.
Smart minds
Just because humans don't need language to think, it doesn't mean that words don't help us. The real magic of language is that it allows people to share their thoughts with others. This means you don't have to face the world by yourself-you can learn from ideas created by the elderly. This lets humans develop science and technology, laws and stories. People can think without language, but language makes humans so smart.
38. According to Paragraph 1, the writer may agree that____________.
A. language is the thinking itself
B. language can show our thoughts
C. we think in the language we speak
D. we should speak out our feelings loudly
39. In Paragraph 2&3, the writer shows the thoughts come before words by____________.
A.listing numbers B. giving examples
C.telling stories D. comparing facts
40. What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 4 refer to
A. Read a word very quickly, out loud or in your head.
B. Language is useful and helps make humans smart.
C. Humans think without language but show thoughts in words.
D. You may shout "Yes!"or "Got you!" when playing video games.
41. What's the writer's purpose in writing the passage
A. To tell the importance of thinking in silence often.
B. To advise people to do more thinking than speaking.
C. To show the relationship between thinking and language.
D. To introduce the best ways of developing our language.
D
A good king needs honest ministers (大臣) to help him manage the country. However, one king believed that his most important minister was a bit too honest!
The Valuer's job was to say what the price of everything in the country should be. He did his best to set fair prices, so that buyers and sellers would be happy.
This did not please the king! "A good Valuer should set the prices that I want-then I can buy things cheaply and sell them expensively." he said. "What's the point of having a Valuer if he doesn't set the prices I want "
Soon, the king invited a foolish man to be the Valuer and fired (解雇) the honest Valuer. People brought all kinds of goods-rocks and fruit, fans and potatoes, fish and elephants. The foolish man had no idea how much anything was worth, so he just said whatever price came into his head. People were angry about many of the prices he set, but what could they do He was the king's Valuer, after all!
One day, a horse trader came, leading five hundred fine horses. He bowed to the king and the Valuer, and said, "How much are my horses worth " The king wanted the horses, so he told the Valuer to set a very low price. The Valuer thought for a moment and said, "Your horses are worth... a cup of rice!" The horse trader was speechless! But he had no choice but to accept the Valuer's price.
However, the next day, the horse trader went back, carrying the cup of rice he had been given. "Yesterday, you said that my five hundred horses were worth a cup of rice," the horse trader said to the Valuer. “______________”
The foolish Valuer was surprised by this question. He said, "Your cup of rice is worth, er...this big city, and everything in it!" There was silence..and then everybody started shouting at once.
"That is silly!" shouted the king. "This city is worth far more than a cup of rice!"
...
