A卷（2016年1月20日上午使用）

Part A Reading Aloud

The River Thames is the longest and most important river in Great Britain. The name of the river is probably a Scottish word which means “broad river”. The Thames rises in southwest England and flows east for a distance of 338 kilometres to London. On the north bank stands the Tower of London, which was once home to the royal family and later served as a prison. The Thames River is crowded at its mouth with the busy ships of England’s commerce, but the upper course of the river is known for its quiet beauty. Someone once said the Thames was the finest river in the world “because it runs liquid history”.

England was ruled by a cruel king named John. One day, the villagers heard that King John and his men would soon be arriving. This worried them a lot, for they knew the greedy king would demand food and housing for his men. After much discussion, they came up with a plan. They decided to act like fools because they believed no one would stay in a place of fools.

The day finally came. In the street, the king saw a man riding a donkey. The man had a heavy bag on his own shoulders, and looked rather tired. The king approached the man and asked, “Why don’t you just put the bag on your donkey’s back?”

“It’s bad enough that she has to carry me,” replied the man, “so I decide to lighten her burden by carrying the bag myself. We all do it this way in our village. We love animals.”The king didn’t say a word. He just went on his way, laughing at the man’s foolishness. That night, the king and his men left what they believed was a village of fools.
