Long，long ago there were a lot of donkeys.The donkeys worked hard every day.They
had no time to play or to relax, but they never felt appreciated for the work they did.
One day two donkeys got bored. They wanted to live a comfortable life. So the donkeys went to see a wise old man. They told him their problem. The wise old man agreed that they worked too hard, and he wanted to help the donkeys. “I have an idea.” he said.
“What is your idea？” asked the donkeys.
“I will paint you and no one will know you are donkeys，” said the man.
The man went off to find some paint and he returned in just a matter of minutes. He had two pots of paint. One pot was filled with white paint, and the other black paint.
The old man first painted them white，and then painted black stripes(斑纹)over the white paint. When he finished, the donkeys did not look at all like donkeys. “You no longer look like donkeys, ”the old man said. “Everyone will be fooled.
I will call you something else, zebras.”
The zebras went to a field to eat grass. Now they did not have to work.
Soon, other donkeys saw the zebras. They asked the zebras where they came from. When the zebras told the donkeys their secret, the donkeys all rushed to see the old man.
“Make us into zebras, too，” they pleaded．So the wise old man painted more donkeys. As he did, more and more donkeys came.
The old man could not paint fast enough.Soon the donkeys became impatient. They began to kick about, and they knocked over the paint pots.
There was no more paint. The painted donkeys ran off to become zebras. The unpainted donkeys, because of their impatience, had to return to work.
This is why it is important to be patient.

How does a place become a World Heritage Site(世界遗产保护区)? It takes a lot of people to decide.
(1)If a country wants one of its places to be on the World Heritage List, it has to ask UNESCO. The place must be important and special. UNESCO put the Great Wall on the list in 1987 because，it said，it was a great part of Chinese culture and beautifully made to go with the land. When a country asks, it must also make
a plan for taking care of the place.
(2)The World Heritage Committee of UNESCO talks about different places and decides whether to put them on the list. The committee meets every June. Many experts help the committee to decide.
(3)After a new place goes on the list, UNESCO gives money to help keep it looking
good. If a place is in serious danger, it may be put on the List of World Heritage Sites in Danger.UNESCO gives special care and help to those places.
(4)Countries have to give UNESCO regular reports about places on the list.If UNESCO thinks a country isn't taking good enough care of a place, the site will be taken off the list.
5．The passage implies that________．
A．becoming a World Heritage Site takes hard work

【语篇解读】本文为一篇说明文。

介绍的是要成为“世界遗产保护区”需要做的工作。

当然，即使是申遗成功，人们仍需好好保护文化遗产。

下面，我们一起来看一下申遗的流程吧。

5．A 推理判断题。

由文章的前两点可以看出，一个国家从向联合国教科文组织申请到最后申遗成功要进行一系列的工作，因此可推测出想要在世界遗产中榜上有名可不容易。

6．B 细节理解题。

从短文最后一段的第二句话“If UNESCO thinks a country isn't taking good enough care of a place，the site will be taken off the list.”分析可以看出，即使申遗成功，人们仍需好好保护文化遗产。

7．D 主旨大意题。

短文的开头已经将本文的主题给出，下文是围绕这个主题展开的。

8．C 推理判断题。

使一个地方成为世界遗产的目的在短文中没有明确表示，但通过联合国对一个国家的要求可推测出“其目的是使其得到更好的保护”。
