There he found a small boy busy at work and singing happily.The boy had bright eyes, and a happy, sunny face, and his looks and manners pleased the king. With a smile Louis asked him his name. He replied that his name was Simon. In answer to further questions, the king learnt that the boy was an orphan; both his father and mother were dead.“Are you content（滿足的）to do this kind of work?” the king asked, pointing at the bowls which the boy was washing. “Are you willing to spend your time in the kitchen when so many of the others work upstairs?”“Why not?” answered the boy, with a twinkle in his eye. “I am doing as well as the best of them. The king himself can do no better.”“Indeed!” said the king, no little surprised at the boys words. “How do you know that?”“Well, sir, the king lives, and so do I. I am content with my life. Can the king say that he is content with his life?”Louis walked away, his mind full of strange, sad thoughts. No one knew better than he did that kings seldom feel content.The next day, much to Simons surprise, he was called before the king. He was still more surprised when he found that his visitor of the day before was Louis himself. The king talked with him about many things, and found him to be a very quick and clever boy.After that Simon was made to serve the king directly. Step by step, he rose from one important task to another, until he became one of the best soldiers of that time.

As a result, European automakers used to make different kinds of small cars while American automakers used to build bigger, heavier cars. However, these days, automakers in both America and Europe produce cars of different sizes. This is because most automakers export their cars all over the world.The price of gasoline (汽油)is one reason for differences in car choices. Since gasoline is more expensive in Europe, many Europeans want smaller, lighter cars that will travel a long way on a gallon（加侖）of gasoline.Other reasons also enter into the big or little car decision. Many European cities have narrow, winding（彎曲的） streets. In these cities a small car is easier to control than a large one.For a long time, few Americans bought small cars. Instead they chose large cars, because these roomy cars were more comfortable for large families and long trips. Some people also liked the powerful engines（發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)） that large cars had. Since gasoline was cheap, drivers did not mind that the large cars used a lot of gasoline.But in the 1970s, there were gasoline shortages in the United States. The price of gasoline went up. Though large cars were still more popular than smaller cars, sales of small cars increased. Some people also bought small cars because these cars caused less air pollution than larger cars.Today, Americans car preferences are still changing. Though Americans are still buying many small cars, the fastest growing sales are for certain kinds of large cars. These types of cars are called minivans and sport utility vehicles(SUV). They are very popular today. But of course, that could change tomorrow.（1）In the 1970s, . A . large cars were less popular than smaller cars.B . European cars finally came to the United States.C . the price of gasoline went up in the United States.D . people in the United States stopped buying small cars.（2）Which of the following does the article lead you to believe? A . Sport utility vehicles small cars.B . Minivans are becoming less popular.C . European car companies sell many cars in America.D . Cars with powerful engines caused less air pollution.（3）What does “roomy” in Paragraph 4 mean? A . having much spaceB . having little spaceC . having a large roomD . having a small room（4）What can we infer（推斷）from the article? A . Small cars are better than large cars.B . The price of gasoline is always rising.C . Large cars will always be popular in the United States.D . People like to have different kinds of cars to choose from.5. （10分） Alice and her brother, Peter, saved money for many years.
