A
A monk lived with his brother, a one-eyed idiot(a very stupid person).One day ,when the monk was scheduled to have an interview with a famous theologian(a scientist who studies religions) who had come from far away to meet him, he needed to take care of some matters and would therefore be absent when the theologian arrived. He told his brother:“Receive this scholar and treat him well！Don’t say a word to him，and everything will be OK.”
The monk left the temple. Upon returning, he went to meet his guest.
“Did my brother receive you properly?”asked the monk.
“You brother is outstanding. He’s a great theologian!”exclaimed the theologian with great enthusiasm.
“What do you mean? My brother---a theologian?”stuttered(结巴地说)the surprised monk.
“We had a passionate conversation,”replied the scholar.“We communicated professionally by means of gestures. I showed him one finger and he replied by showing me two. Logically, I answered with three fingers and then he astonished me by raising a closed fist, ending the debate. With one finger, I implied the unity of Buddha. With two fingers, he expanded my point of view by reminding me that Buddha was inseparable from his theory. Delighted by the reply, with three fingers I expressed: Buddha and his theory in the world. Then he suggested a wonderful response, showing me his fist: Buddha, his theory and the world, all together as one whole. ”
A little later, the monk went to look for his one-eyed brother.
“So how did it go earlier with the theologian?”he asked.
“Very simple,”said the brother.“He made fun of me ;he show me one finger emphasizing that I have but one eye. Not wanting to fall into the conflict, I showed that he was fortunate enough to have two eyes. Critically, he continued, ‘Be that as it may ,between us, we have three eyes.’ That was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Showing him a closed fist, I threatened to lay him out right then and there if he didn’t stop his insulting challenges.”
1、According to the passage, the monk’s brother is a person__________.
A．who was a great theologian
B．who was a three-eyed idiot
C．who was a one-eyed theologian
D．who was a fool with only one eye

A．the brother was a one-eyed idiot
B．the brother could communicate properly and politely by means of gestures
C．the brother had deep thoughts of Buddhism
D．the theologian himself misunderstood the brother’s gestures
3、What would the monk do after he heard of his brother’s explanation on how it went earlier with the theologian?
A．The monk would be very angry with his brother and beat him.
B．The monk would be very happy and praise him.
C．The monk would apologize to the theologian and his brother.
D．The monk would think what a funny misunderstanding it was.
4、According to what the theologian said, he considered the monk’s brother’s fist to be the meaning of _____________.
A．a threat to him
B．an encouragement to him
C．a unity of the Buddha, theory and the world
D．one eye of himself

B
Do you have a spare room in your house? What about a driveway for your car? Both of these can help you make money.Many people who are feeling the pinch are taking advantage of what’s been called the “sharing economy”.
Perhaps the best-known example of a company in this field is Airbnb---an American web business which allows you to rent out your spare room to holidaymakers.It says it operates in 34,000 cities and it has over 1,500,000 listings.It seems to have concerned the market!
A British company is doing something with parking spaces.JustPark’s founder, Anthony Eskinazi, says ,“When I had the original idea,Ispotted a driveway close to a sports stadium.It would have been so convenient if I could have just parked in that driveway rather than in commercial car park.” And he has a big clientele（客户）:around 20,000 people have advertised their spaces on the site,and he says around half a million drivers use it.There are other sites doing very similar things,like Uber and Lyft---these let drivers share their cars with other passengers.Any driver knows how valuable a place to park is .A church near Kings Cross in central London has apparently made over £200,000 by renting out space in its yard to travelers!
Because this is a new business world,those rules aren’t there yet and many people are happy to share...as long as it pays!
But the sharing economy has its critics:the competitors of these new companies.People who run things like traditional B&B, commercial car parks and taxi services are afraid of ending up out of pocket.And there is another issue:regulations on these new business are unclear.How will renting out your driveway affect your neighbor?
1、What does the underlined phrase “feeling the pinch” probably mean?
A．Lacking in money B．Full of curiosity
C．Willing to help others D．Unsatisfied with their life
2、Who may be against the sharing economy?
A．A taxi driver who can’t find a a parking place B．A priest in the church near Kings Cross
C．A traveller who needs accomodiation D．A well-known high-end holiday hotel
3、Why are many people pleased to share according to paragraph 4?
A．They can gain huge profits B．They needn’t pay any fee
C．There are few rules to limit them D．The new business has no risks
4、Which of the following words can best describe the booming business?
A．Creative and developed B．Competitive but unpractical
C．Effective and worrying D．Traditional and acceptable
