三、阅读理解。

A great French writer has said that we should help everyone as much as we can because we

often need help ourselves. The small even can help the great. About this， he told the following story.

An ant was drinking at a small river and fell in. She tried her best to reach the side， but she couldnt move at all. The poor ant got too tired but was still doing her best when a big bird saw her. With a pity， the bird threw a piece of wood. With it， the ant reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in grass， she heard a man coming up. He was walking without shoes on his feet and carrying a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the bird， he wished to kill her and he would certainly do so， but the ant bit （咬） him in one of his feet and at that moment the bird flew away at once. It was an animal much weaker and smaller than the bird herself that had saved her life.

So every afternoon， he went there to read a little at a time. One day， however， he couldnt find the book from its usual place and was leaving when he saw an assistant signing （示意） to him. To his surprise， the assistant pointed to the book in a corner， “I put it there so that it wont be sold out，” said the assistant. Then he left the student to go on his reading.
