The bird catcher could only stand by the river and feel sorry for being greedy （贪婪）.可知乌龟拿着珍珠游走了，说："我可不傻，拿一个给两个！"故乌龟是聪明的，故答案是clever。（5）greedy.主旨大意题。根据文中So the tortoise jumped into the river and after some time，he came up with a big pearl（珍珠）.The bird catcher was so surprised.He was so happy that he let the peacock go.可知乌龟第一次送给捕鸟者一颗珍珠，捕鸟者放走了孔雀。其次根据文中A few days later，the bird catcher，came back to the tortoise.He thought he didn't get enough for letting the peacock go.He told the tortoise that he would catch the peacock again unless he got another big pearl.可知捕鸟者找到乌龟，威胁他如果再不给自己一颗大珍珠，他又会抓走孔雀。最后根据文中最后一段Then the tortoise swam away and said，"I am not so stupid to take one and give two!"The bird catcher could only stand by the river and feel sorry for being greedy （贪婪的）.可知乌龟拿着珍珠游走了，说："我可不傻，拿一个给两个！"捕鸟人只能站在河边，为自己的贪婪感到难过。由此可知作者通过这篇文章告诉我们做人不要像捕鸟者一样贪婪，否则最终一无所获。故答案是greedy。六、 书面表达 （共 1 题，满分 15 分）20．（15分）假如你是一名中学生，你们学校正在开展一年一度的读书月活动，目的在于培养学生们良好的阅读习惯，倡导同学们多读书、读好书、爱读书。你打算参加你们班举行的以"我读书，我快乐"为主题的英语演讲比赛主题班会。请你根据以下提示，写一篇英语短文参赛。读书的益处：获取知识，增长见识，使人快乐。存在的现象：玩游戏，听音乐，看电视，上网，占用了大部分业余时间。发出的倡议：多读书，读好书，向世界传播中国传统文化，让好书成为我们的朋友。注意：词数 80 左右（开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数）；可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。Growing up with Good BooksMy dear friends，    Reading is very important.____________【分析】【高分句型一】The more we read，the more we will learn，and the brighter our future will be.我们读得越多，学到的东西就越多，我们的未来就越光明。The more ...the more ...；表示越来越……。【高分句型二】They spend much time in listening to music，watching TV，going on line or playing computer games.他们花很多时间听音乐、看电视、上网或玩电脑游戏。 spend  time in doing ...；花费时间做……。【解答】Growing up with Good Books My dear friends，Reading is very important.Books are our best friends.We can get knowledge through reading.Reading can help us open our mind，it can also make us cleverer and happier.Our study can be improved if we read more good books.The more we read，the more we will learn，and the brighter our future will be.【高分句型一】Reading is our happiness.The more books we read，the happier we feel.（读书的益处）However，some students don't like reading.They spend much time in listening to music，watching TV，going on line or playing computer games.【高分句型二】It takes much of their spare time.I don't think it's good，so I would like to suggest that everyone should read more books.（存在的现象）Let's act.Let's start reading now.Read happily.And let it become a part of our daily life.Let's read more books，read good books，spread Chinese traditional culture to the world，and make good books our friends.（发出的倡议）
