Once in Arabia, there lived a Sheik. He and his wife lived in a village. As she had no child, the Sheik married another
woman for a second time. By his second wife, he had a son. He loved his son very much and he grew up happily as a
handsome young man.
However, the man's first wife hated the second wife and her son, so she began to plot against(密谋杀害) them. For
years, she kept waiting for a chance to murder them with her magical power.
One day the Sheik had to go out on a journey. He said to his son that he would return home before Bakrid and
celebrated the festival. Now came the perfect chance long waited by the first wife. When the man was away, she used her
magical power and changed the second wife and son as goats.
When Bakrid was approaching, the man returned home, only to find his first wife in the house. He asked her where his
son and his second wife were. The first wife lied that his second wife died in some unknown disease and that her son ran
away from home and didn't come again. On hearing this, the man became sad but comforted himself that it was God's will.
On the day of Bakrid, the Sheik asked his first wife to bring a goat for sacrifice. His first wife brought the second wife
who had been changed into a goat. When it came near the man, it started to brush his hand with its tongue. He took pity on
the goat and asked his first wife to bring another. So she brought the son goat. It also come near the Sheik and started to rub
his leg with its head. Again, the man took pity on the goat. He said, "The two goats do like men. So I can't kill these two. "
Then the first wife got angry and said, "If you refuse to kill all goats like this, we will not be able to sacrifice anything."
Possible Version 1 Paragraph 1: Just then the butcher's wife, another woman with magical power, passed by. Glancing at
these two goats, she instantly realized the woman's evil trick. She came up to the Sheik, explaining, "Actually, these two
goats are your second wife and your son." Hearing the words, the man was startled and asked her if she could bring
them back to him. The butcher's wife nodded, taking some water from her bottle and spraying it on the two goats. The
next moment, they turned into his second wife and his son.
Paragraph 2: So astonished was the man that he couldn't believe his eyes. "Dad! Dad!" the boy cried in a thrilled
voice, throwing himself at his father's hug. Three of them embraced each other tightly, tears streaming down. In the
corner stood the first wife in a mixture of fright and annoyance. When she was about to run away, she was caught by
the butcher's wife. Never had she predicted one day she would be changed into a silent fish. From then on, the man, his
second wife and his lovable son lived a happy life in the village.
Possible Version 2
Reading and accumulationParagraph 1: Just then the butcher's wife, another woman with magical power, passed by. The sight of the
goats pacing around Sheik with care and love confused the butcher's wife, wondering why two goats acted
like humans. With doubt in mind, she approached the two goats, hands gently on their heads to know what had
happened. It dawned on her that the two goats were actually changed from humans through magical
power. Having learnt the truth, the woman changed the two back to humans, making everyone present shocked,
including Sheik.
Paragraph 2: So astonished was the man that he couldn't believe his eyes. Never in his wildest dream had he
thought they would reunite in this way. Tears of relief welling up in eyes, he hugged them tightly, asking what
they had experienced. Eyes glued to the three, the first wife, with her hands clenched into tight
fists, dashed to them in a flash, scolding and cursing. Sheik glared at her, realizing the truth and revealed her
evil deeds on the spot. Furious but frightened by the roaring people around, the first wife fled away, leaving
the family in the joyful celebration.

Shana, Robyn, and I stood on the high platform near the tops of the rainforest trees. We were wearing
heavy helmets on our heads and had thick leather straps around our waists, which made seats that hung from
a thick wire overhead. The wire was hung between the platform we stood on and another platform far in the
distance.
This was the zip line(滑索), an adventure I had vowed I would not do on our family trip to Costa Rica. I
was afraid of heights, afraid of falling, and afraid of zipping through the air above the rainforest at 30 miles
per hour. Yet here I was, fastened in and ready to go.
"Who goes first?" our guide asked. My sisters exchanged a glance- neither of them stepped forward. I'd
been teased for being a "scary cat" ever since I was four when I tripped (绊倒) and fell on an escalator (自
动扶梯). Even my parents, while relieved by my cautious ways, were worried that I'd miss out on(错过)
enjoyable activities. No longer willing to let life pass me by, I stepped to the edge of the platform, sat
back in the leather seat, and pushed off( 离 开 ).Absolute terror filled me as I screamed and zoomed
through the trees with my eyes squeezed shut. Before I could totally process what was happening,
Ilanded safely on the second platform.
As my sisters flew in behind me, the guide attached me to the next wire, and I was off again. This time, fear
was replaced with excitement, and I was able to look around me as I zipped. There- a toucan (犀鸟)! And
was that a sloth ( 树 懒 ) right at eye level? By the time we had finished all the zip line journeys, I was
shouting not with terror but with joy. And to think how close I'd come to missing it all!21. Why had the writer vowed not to go on the zip lines?
