There was once a King and he wanted to find out who could paint the best picture of peace. And he would offer a prize to the artist. Many artists tried. The King looked at all the pictures but there were only two he really liked and he had to choose between them.
One picture was of a calm(平静的) lake. The lake was a perfect mirror for peaceful mountains all around it. Overhead was a blue sky with white soft clouds. Everyone thought that was a perfect picture of peace. The other picture had mountains too. But these were rugged(崎岖的） and bare（无遮蔽的）.
Above was an angry sky, And it was raining and lightening. Down the side of the mountain, a waterfall fell quickly. This did not look peaceful at all.
But when the King looked carefully, he saw behind the waterfall a bush(矮树丛)growing in a crack（裂缝） in the rock． In the bush a mother bird had built her nest（巢，窝）， There， she sat on her nest ... in perfect peace. Which picture do you think won the prize?
The King chose the second picture.\noise, trouble, or hard work. Peace means to be in the middle of all those things and still be calm in your heart. That is the real meaning of peace.

43. Because he thought it had the real meaning of peace.
44. 身处如此多的烦扰之中，而依然能心存安宁，才是真正的宁静。 45. Real Meaning of Peace
41. 题干意思：国王想让艺术家做什么？ （不超过10个单词）。文章首句“There was once a King and he wanted to find out who could paint the best picture of peace.”（曾经有一位国王，他想找出谁可以画出关于和平的最佳画作。），所以可以得出国王的目的，这里用不定式结构来表达目的，填To paint the best picture of peace. 42. 题干意思：每个人对第一张照片有什么看法？（不超过7个单词），原文“Everyone thought that was a perfect picture of peace.”（每个人都认为这是和平的完美图景。），从这里可以得出每个人对第一张图的观点，故填That was a perfect picture of peace.
43. 题干意思：为什么国王选择了第二张照片？（不超过11个单词），原文“Because peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work.”（因为和平并不意味着在没有噪音，麻烦或辛勤工作的地方。），这句话是国王做出的解释，为了用限定的字数回答问题，可以改写成“他认为这幅画拥有和平的真实含义”，填Because he thought it had the real meaning of peace.
44. “mean”为“意思是”；“those things”指的是“noise, trouble, or hard work”这些烦扰之事，“be calm in your heart”意思是“内心要宁静，要冷静”，整合起来，就是：身处如此多的烦扰之中，而依然能心存安宁，才是真正的宁静。
45. 本文主要讲的是国王寻找关于和平的最佳画作的故事，在评价环节，国王以独特的视角解释了和平真正的含义，所以标题可以选“Real Meaning of Peace”。

5.【2018年山东省青岛】阅读下面短文，完成 51 至 54 题。
“I’ve always had a pretty clear idea of what I want to do.” says Mary, a middle school student who
wants to become a director some day. You may not be as sure of your career (职业) as Mary. But you can start thinking about and planning for your future career.
The following article helps middle school students plan for careers. Explore (探索) your interests
Many middle school students don’t yet know what they want to do. But in fact, students may change their minds several times, perhaps even after they enter society. And some of tomorrow’s
careers might not exist (存在) today. Focusing on just one job in middle school isn’t necessary. But looking into the kinds of careers you might like can help you succeed. ①
Understanding what you enjoy and what you’re good at is the most important step in exploring careers. If you don’t know what you want to do, you should ask yourself what you like to learn about. If you really like science, what do you enjoy about it — the lab work or the research? It’s important to think about what you like to do, because work will finally be a big part of your life. Discover possible careers
Once you’ve thought about the subjects and activities you like best, the next step is to look for careers that put those interests to use. If you love sports, for example, you might consider a career as a P.E. teacher or a soccer coach. If you like English, a career as an English teacher, a translator or a travelling guide might be a good choice. ②
After discovering possible jobs, you’ll want to learn more about them. Talking directly to workers on the phone, by email, or through online discussion can help you get information about what they do. Even meeting with them in person is helpful. First-hand information is necessary for you to find out if you’ll really like a career.
