第一讲 七年级上 Unit 1—Unit 5 (含Starter) 一、阅读理解 Once there was a man living with his wife and children in a small house. There was always noise in his house as his children played, laughed and sang. He could have no peace at all. The man couldn't stand living in the house, so he decided to ask a wise old woman who lived down the road for advice. He told her about his problem. The wise old woman quickly had an answer for him. "Go home and bring all of your farm animals into your house." The man thought this was bad advice. But since the old woman was known far and wide for her wisdom, he agreed to do as she said. He went home and brought all of his farm animals inside. As you can imagine, the animals made all kinds of noise. The cats mewed. The sheep bleated. The chickens clucked and the cows mooed. The man could find no comfort and peace at all, so he went back to the wise old woman. She had been waiting for him. She listened to him patiently and then offered some new advice. "Go home and take all of the animals out of your home," she said. The man was confused(困惑的), but he still agreed. He returned to his house and drove all the animals outside.
