Once upon a time, there was a family with 18 children living in a village. Two of the children, both boys, loved painting very much, but the family was so poor that it was impossible to send both of them to study at art school at the same time.
After many discussions, the two boys finally worked out a plan. They would toss(抛) a coin. The loser would go down into the mines(煤矿)and,with his money, pay for his brother's college tuition(学费).Then, when the brother who won the toss finished his studies, he would pay Tor the other brother to study at the college.
One of the brothers, Albrecht Durer, won the toss and his brother Jack went down into the mines. Durer worked with all his heart and his paintings were much better than those of most of his teachers. He was beginning to make a lot of money for his paintings.
Durer returned. When he told Jack he could go to art college, Jack said softly: "The fouryears in the mines have done too much to my hands. It is too late. Now I can’t even hold a glass."
To show his great love and respect for his brother, Durer drew his brother's hands with palms(手掌）together and thin fingers towards the sky. He called his drawing The Praying Hands, which became very famous years later.
The next time you see a copy of that touching work, take a second look. Let it be your reminder: No one can ever succeed alone!
1.According to the two brothers' discussion
A. they let the coin decide who would go to college first
B. the winner would go to college with their family's help
C. the loser would go to the mines and earn money to pay for his own education

2.Jack refused his brothers offer because

C. he suffered an accident D. his hands were out of shape as a result of his work
3.What does the underlined word "Praying" in Paragraph 5 mean?

Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love. One day the feelings were told that the island would sink, so all built boats and left, except Love. Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out(坚持) until the last possible moment.
When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.
Richness was passing by Love in a big boat. Love said, “Richness, can you take me with you?”

Love decided to ask Vanity(虚荣心) who was also passing by in a beautiful ship.“Vanity, please help me!”
“I can’t help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage(破坏) my boat, “Vanity answered.

“It was Time, “Knowledge answered.
“Time?”asked Love.“But why did Time help me?”
Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom(智慧) and answered, “Because only Time is able to understand how valuable(珍贵的)Love is.”
