五、任务型阅读:阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
One day, Confucius and his students were walking through a large forest when they saw a bow-backed(驼背的) old man. He was catching cicadas( 蝉 ) as easily as picking up fallen leaves.
Confucius asked, "Your skill is excellent! Is there a secret to it?"

"Of course! I have my method!" the old man answered. "I trained my hands for six months. First, I learned to place two clay balls( 泥丸 ) on top of my bamboo stick without letting them fall off. As I mastered it, I could often catch cicadas. When the balls became three, I missed only once or twice. Finally, I placed five clay balls. Once I could do that, catching cicadas became as easy as picking them up from the ground!"
The old man continued, "But that was not enough. Cicadas are smart. I also trained myself to stand as still as a tree and hold the bamboo stick without any shaking so that I wouldn't make any noise or scare cicadas away. What's more, I trained my mind. When I focused, I saw nothing but the cicada's wings. How could I not succeed?"
Hearing this, Confucius turned to his students and said, "No matter what you do, you should keep training and put all your heart into it. This is what this old man has taught us."
This is the ancient Chinese story—Goulou Chengtiao. The wise thoughts are passed down and still influence us today.
