The brush pen, one of the “Four Treasures of the Study”, was invented thousands of years ago. However, the oldest pen was just a piece of bamboo or a stick. It was difficult for people to write well on thin silk.
It is said that Meng Tian, a general of the Kingdom（王国）Qin, improved the pen. When Meng was leading an army to fight against the Kingdom of Chu, he had to report the situation to his king in time. But his pen was too hard and caused him much trouble, so he was thinking of ways to improve it.
One day Meng made his way home with some wild rabbits on the horse back. Fat and heavy, one rabbit’s tail left a long trail（痕迹）on the ground when they moved on. Suddenly a good idea came to his mind when he saw it, “If I tie the rabbit’s hair to a stick, would it be easy to write with?”
On arriving home, he tied the rabbit’s hair to a stick and tried writing with it. But the rabbit’s hair was too smooth to write well and wasted a lot of silk. So he threw away his “invention” into a stone hole in the yard.
However, Meng never gave up and kept trying all the time. A few rainy days later, he happened to find his “invention” fatter in a stone hole. He picked it up with hope. The brush worked beautifully on silk. Meng succeeded at last.
8．Why did Meng Tian want to improve the pen?
A．Because the king asked him to do so.
B．Because he didn’t like the rabbit’s hair.
C．Because the old pen made him much trouble.
D．Because he had to fight against the Kingdom of Chu.
9．When did Meng think of the good idea in Paragraph 3?
A．Before taking the rabbit.B．When he saw the trail.
C．During cleaning the hair.D．When he arrived home.
10．Which is the right order of improving the brush pen?
a. The brush pen could write well.
b. Meng tied the rabbit’s hair to a stick.
c. Meng found a good small stick.
d. Meng dropped the stick into a stone hol
e.
A．b-d-a-c B．c-b-d-a C．b-d-c-a D．a-d-c-b 11．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Meng was a great leader.B．The rabbit’s hair is useful.
C．How was the brush pen invented?D．It is important to learn Chinese culture.
