There was a person called Sun Shan in the Song Dynasty. One year, he left his hometown for the imperial examination(科举考试), and a countryman asked his son to go with Sun Shan. On the day the result 1, Sun Shan found his name came last on the list of the 2 candidates(考生). The son of his countryman failed, became very sad and asked Sun Shan to return first.
After returning home, Sun Shan's 3 all came to see him and congratulate him on his success.
The countryman didn't see his son had come back, so he asked Sun Shan whether his son had also passed the examination.
The countryman said, "Congratulations! My son hasn't come back until now. How about his examination?" Sun Shan, a very 4 person, didn't give a direct(直接的) answer, but answered in a funny way, "Sun Shan was the last on the list. Your son came after Sun Shan." That is to say, the countryman's son had no luck at all. He failed the examination.
The story comes from A Record of Guoting. Now, the saying "5 Sun Shan" is used to talk about one's failure(失败) in an examination or a competition.

三、短文填空
请认真阅读下面短文,在设空处填入一个恰当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Have you heard of Galileo Galilei and his telescope(望远镜)? Galileo Galilei, the famous 1 Italian (Italy) scientist who found Jupiter's(木星) four closest moons, did not invent 2 the telescope that he used to see those moons. 3 In fact, he just made the telescope better.
Hans Lippershey, a man from the Netherlands who made the eyeglass, 4 invented (invent) the telescope in 1608. He wanted to see things far away on land, 5 so he put the latest technology(科技) and his imagination together and came up with the telescope.
The Dutch government tried to keep the invention secret, but it didn't work out that way. Galileo heard about it and built 6 his (he) own. Galileo's telescope was several times more 7 powerful (power) than Lippershey's, and Galileo had the idea to point it into the night sky. And in 1610, when he 8 saw (see) Europa, Io, Ganymede and Callisto, he found that Jupiter had moons and that the earth wasn't the center of the universe(宇宙) or even the solar system.
Often, Galileo is thought to have invented the telescope because he made so many 9 important (importance) discoveries with it. Galileo invented many other 10 things (thing), like the microscope(显微镜), but the credit(赞扬) for inventing the telescope should go to Hans Lippershey.
