there are some words like these, "sweep the floor, clean your bedroom,
help mum cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean
the bathroom" and many others, Jim and Robert chose two cards for each day
from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim
likes to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the card "clean the bathroom".
Robert loves to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again
picked up "wash vegetables" and Robert chose "feed the fish".
Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.
To help the children
do housework, their mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course,
the parents did the housework on the weekends and left Jim and Robert two days
free.

Two seeds(种子) lay in the soil(土壤).
The first seed said, " I want to grow to feel the warmth of the sun on my face and the beauty of the fresh dew(露水) on my flowers in the morning! I will make friends with other plants, and we can grow together." So she grew. Then she saw that the other seed did nothing. She asked, "①"
The other seed said," I am afraid. You know first I should go into the ground below, but I don't know what I'll meet in the dark. Second, before I open my flowers, I should push my way through the hard soil above me to be a strong plant, but I might hurt. At last, when I open my flowers, a child might pull me out of the ground. No, it is much better for me to wait until it's safe."
The first seed didn't know what to say. The second seed sat there still. A big hen was walking nearby and looking for food. She found the second seed and ate it.
Like this seed, if we don't try our best to grow, life may give us a lesson.

31．推理判断题。根据前面So she grew. Then she saw that the other seed did nothing. She asked, 于是她长大了。然后她看到另一颗种子什么也没做。她问道, 可知，这粒种子长大了，看到另外一粒种子什么也没做，应该是问她难道不想和她一样出来看看吗，D项符合语境，故选D。
32．细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二粒种子所说"I am afraid. You know first I should go into the ground below, but I don't knowwhat I'll meet in the dark. Second, before I open my flowers, I should push myway through the hard soil above me to be a strong plant, but I might hurt. Atlast, when I open my flowers, a child might pull me out of the ground. No, itis much better for me to wait until it's safe."“我很害怕。你知道我应该先到地下去，但我不知道在黑暗中会遇到什么。第二，在我开花之前，我应该冲破坚硬的土壤，成为一棵强壮的植物，但我可能会受伤。最后，当我打开我的花时，一个孩子可能会把我从地下拉出来。不，我还是等安全了比较好。”可知，种子成长的顺序应该是：深入地下 ，破土，长成植物，开花，故选B。

34．推理判断题。根据本文内容可知，本文主要通过两粒种子的不同态度及结果告诉我们生活就像种子，如果不努力成长，生活可能会给我们一个教训。所以本文的目的是告诉我们：每个人都应该努力成长。 故选D。

Most children don't
enjoy doing housework. They like playing computer games rather than cleaning
the rooms. But in Australia, Jim and Robert's mother, Mrs Black, have good and
proper ways to get their children to do housework.
Here is an example.
"Mum, have you
worked out next week's housework Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can't
wait. It's fun!"
When Robert shouted
out, his mother had already put ten cards on their big table. On the cards,
there are some words like these, "sweep the floor, clean your bedroom,
help mum cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean
the bathroom" and many others, Jim and Robert chose two cards for each day
from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim
likes to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the card "clean the bathroom".
Robert loves to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again
picked up "wash vegetables" and Robert chose "feed the fish".
Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.
To help the children
do housework, their mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course,
the parents did the housework on the weekends and left Jim and Robert two days
free.
