六、完形填空。(2025·江苏宿迁宿城区期末)
Let me tell you a story. Long long ago, there were two mountains in northern China. One was Taihang Mountain and 1 was Wangwu Mountain. In the north of the mountains, there was a big family.
The grandpa in the family was called Yugong. Because the mountains were 2 their house, he and his family had to walk long to get to the town on the southern side.
One day, Yugong thought, “It’s so 3 to go out like this! I’m an old man now, but I have children. For them, their children and their 4 children, the road to the outside world cannot be blocked by the mountains. We should try to let them have a chance to 5 to know the world!”
Hearing what Yugong said, his family members all worked together and made up 6 minds to remove the two mountains. But the mountains were so 7 that people couldn’t see their tops. Although the whole family couldn’t dig very much each day, they didn’t give up and kept on 8 day after day.
Their perseverance(毅力) deeply touched their 9. Some children even came over to help.
An old man named Zhisou in a neighbouring village heard about this and came by just to talk with Yugong about it. “It was so unwise of you to make such a decision. You and your family don’t have enough energy. How could you 10 remove the huge mountains? You’d better not 11 time any more!” he said.
Yugong 12 and said slowly, “You are wrong. When my sons are getting old, I still have grandsons here. My grandsons will have their children and their children’s children. The family is 13. As the mountains cannot grow taller, we are sure to 14 our dream one day.”
The Jade Emperor(玉皇大帝) was touched by Yugong’s perseverance. He ordered two deities(神仙) to 15 the two mountains away on their backs, putting them in a place far away from Yugong’s house.
