B.Flowers made by the workers.C.Natural flowers.D.Flowers planted in the king's garden.（2）A.The king.B.The queen.C.The bee.D.The workers.（3）（4）The King was amused （ 被逗乐的）to think a tiny bee could one day help a powerful king like him. He let the bee go and said, "Go, be on your way, for I need nothing more from you today."Many days later, a queen was coming to visit from a far-away land."I hear you are wise, "the queen said to the king, "Would you be willing to put your intelligence to a test? "The King agreed and the queen did her best, with puzzles, quizzes, and difficult questions.But the king solved all the problems perfectly.On the last day of her visit, the queen came up with another plan. She ordered the workers to produce ninety-nine fake flowers, but looking so real and natural. When finished, even the queen could not tell they were fake. She was sure the King would make the same mistake. And from the King's garden, she took just one real flower, and cleverly hid it among all the others.The queen then challenged the king, "My workers created many beautiful flowers. Ninety-nine are fake, but one is real somewhere. Can you find that one? "The King accepted the challenge again. He smelled the flowers, but they were all so sweet,and all so beautiful. Now which one could the real flower be? The King became a bit nervous.Suddenly, he heard a buzzing sound. Something was there flying around. It was the tiny little bee he saved many days before. "I am here to repay the kindness you gave me, Sir."The little bee quickly flew over the flowers and stopped on the real one.

A.（1）The Mayan number system appeared in the fourth century, which was about 1, 000 years earlier than the time when the European number system was created. It is different from the Arabic number system with a base 10. The Mayan system had a base 20. This system isbelieved to have been used because the Mayans lived in such awarm areaand therewas hardly a need to wear shoes. 20 was the total number of fingers and toes, so the system was workable. Therefore, there were two important numbers in this system. Besides 20, the otherimportant number is 5, which had a connection with the number of fingers and toes on one hand or foot.The Mayan system used two symbols （标志）. A dot （.） was used to mean the units （one to four ）and a dash （—） meant five. The Mayans were also the first to create symbols of nothing （or zero ）. The most common symbol was that of a shell （）but there wereseveral other symbols （e.g. ahead ）. It is interesting to learn that with all of the great experts on Maths and scientists in ancient Greece and Rome, it was the Mayan Indians who came up with this symbol zero or nothing.
