一、阅读理解
(2018·山东东营中考)“You have saved my horse，” Queen Olivia told the young boy standing before her. “Now you shall get a gift for what you did.” Peter nervously ran his fingers through his brown hair. That day when he was working in the field, the s hocked horse ran past him. Without thinking, he rushed out and controlled it. He didn't know it was the Queen's horse and never expected to get a gift. But he still felt happy for getting one.
Two of the queen's men appeared. One carried a mirror. Red jewels(珠宝) shone on top of the mirror's silver frame(框架). The other carried a wooden cage with a chicken inside it.
“Only one gift can be yours，” the queen said. “Choose wisely.” “That's easy，” Peter said. “I'll take the chicken.” Some of the queen's men laughed. I t was clear that they thought he had made a foolish choice.
“And why did you choose the chicken？” the queen asked. “Well, I don't know much about jewels，” Peter answered. “But I do know about chi ckens. The chicken will provide eggs for my family for a long while.”
Queen Olivia smiled. “Then you did make a wise choice，” she said. “That mirror may look beautiful. But the jewels you see are only colored glass, and the frame is painted silver. The chicken is much more valuable.” Peter took the chicken and bowed. “Thank you, your majesty.”
“You are a smart child，” the queen add ed. “I could use a smart boy to help take care of my horses. Would you like to take the job？” Peter smiled. “Thank you very much！” he said excitedly. A job at the castle paid well. Now his family wouldn't worry about their food any more—all because he was kind to help others and smart enough to make the right choice!
