A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, tempting（诱人的）apple on one of the branches of an apple tree hanging out over a tall fence. The boy wasn’t much of a fruit-eater,
26
a bar of chocolate if given the choice,
27
, as they say, the forbidden fruit can be tempting. Seeing the apple, the boy wanted it. The more he looked at it, the 28

luck, even a ladder, but it was a tidy neighborhood and there was nothing he could use.
He had tried everything he could think to do,
38

【答案解析】
Recently I have made an investigation on whether a model-test paper for Senior Three should be difficult or easy. Opinions are divided on this matter.
Some students think that a difficult exam is just like a challenge. The harder, the better. It can help students find out where they are weak in studies and improve their learning approaches.
Others，however，are against a difficult exam. In their opinion，if it is very difficult，they may become discouraged and feel terrible about the coming College Entrance Examination. Besides，with an easy exam，they can get high marks and gain confidence.
I prefer it to be neither too difficult nor too easy, because if it is too easy, teachers will not know how we are getting on with our studies, but if it is too difficult, we will lose heart.
