Well, according to a new study, cats have many different facial expressions, which show how they are feeling. The research was carried out by the scientists at the University of California, in the US. They visited a local cat café over several months to record videos of 53 cats, collecting 194 minutes of videos. They found that the cats have 276 different expressions. “Each expression was a mixture of lip different facial movements, which included licking (舔) their nose, opening their mouth, or widening the pupils of their eyes,” said the scientists. They also found cats use 26 of these facial movements in total, which can be mixed to express how they are feeling. Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44. Out of the expressions they recorded, 45% were friendly and 37% were angry. “A friendly cat moves its ears and whiskers forward and closes its eyes. However, an angry cat often flattens its ears to its head, makes its pupils smaller and licks its lips,” said the team. Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding. They also hope that the research could help animal shelters (收容所) improve the way they look after the cats. Some pet owners even suggest the researchers develop an app for them to find out what their cats’ facial expressions really mean. 11．Which of the following uses the most facial movements? A．Humans.

Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44.”可知，猫使用26种面部动作，狗使用27种面部动作，人类共使用44种，故人类使用面部动作最多。故选A。 12．细节理解题。根据“However, an angry cat often flattens its ears to its head, makes its pupils smaller and licks its lips”可知，一只生气的猫通常会把耳朵贴在头上，瞳孔变小，舔嘴唇，故选项C中的猫咪作出了“生气”的表情。故选C。 13．推理判断题。根据“Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding.”可知，研究人员不确定猫如何使用面部表情进行交流，他们计划继续研究猫的表情。故推知科学家们接下来会继续学习，了解更多关于猫的知识。故选C。 14．推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了一项关于猫面部表情的研究，研究中记录了多只猫的多种面部表情，研究人员对此作出了解释。故作者通过阐述实例以及结果的方式发展本文。故选B。 15．推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文介绍了一项关于猫咪面部表情的研究，文章的目的是为了介绍这一项新的研究。故选B。 (二) （2022·四川成都·中考真题）Most people agree that honesty is a good thing. But does Mother Nature agree? Animals can’t talk, but can they lie with their bodies and behavior? Animal experts may not call it lying, but they do agree that many animals behave dishonestly to fool other animals. Dishonesty often helps them survive（生存）. Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. A bird called the plover sometimes pretends （假装） to be hurt in order to protect its young. When an enemy gets close to its nest, the plover pretends to have a broken wing. The enemy follows the “hurt” adult, leaving the baby birds safe. Another kind of bird, the scrub jay, buries （埋） its food so it always has something to eat. Scrub jays also steal food. They watch where others bury their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when others are watching them. So they get back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else. Chimpanzees can also be sneaky. After a fight, the losing chimpanzee will give its hand to the other. When the winning chimpanzee puts out its hand, too, the chimpanzees are friendly again. But an animal expert once saw a losing chimpanzee take the winner’s hand and start fighting again. When chimpanzees find food, it’s natural for them to cry out. Then other chimpanzees come running. But some clever chimpanzees learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimpanzees don’t hear them, and they don’t need to share the food. 26．Why does the plover pretend to be hurt? A．To show its friendliness. B．To save its young. C．To catch the enemy. 27．What do clever scrub jays do with their food? A．They bury the food deep. B．They watch the food. C．They bury the food twice. 28．What will the chimpanzee probably do after crying softly? A．It will eat all the food it finds. B．It will share the food with others. C．It will fight again with the winner. 29．According to Paragraph 4, in which picture can we find a sneaky animal? A． B． C． 30．What is the best title of the passage? A．Do animals lie? B．Honesty or dishonesty? C．How do animals protect lives? 【答案】26．B 27．C 28．A 29．C 30．A 【解析】本文科普了一些动物为了生存而撒谎的现象，并举了三个例子进行说明。 26．细节理解题。根据“A bird called the plover sometimes pretends （假装） to be hurt in order to protect its young.”可知，有一种叫千鸟的鸟有时会假装受伤来保护它的幼鸟，故选B。 27．细节理解题。根据“But clever scrub jays seem to know when others are watching them. So they get back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else.”可知，聪明的灌木松鸦似乎知道别人在看它们，所以它们稍后会回来，把食物挖出来，再埋在别的地方。故选C。 28．细节理解题。根据“But some clever chimpanzees learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimpanzees don’t hear them, and they don’t need to share the food.”可知，黑猩猩轻轻地叫喊之后，其他黑猩猩听不到声音，它们就不需要分享食物，故选A。 29．推理判断题。根据“Chimpanzees can also be sneaky...But an animal expert once saw a losing chimpanzee take the winner’s hand and start fighting again.”可知，这里说的是黑猩猩也可能是狡猾的，图片中C中的狐狸与之对应，故选C。 30．最佳标题题。根据“Animals can’t talk, but can they lie with their bodies and behavior...Dishonesty often helps them survive（生存）.”以及整个文章的理解可知，本文科普了一些动物为了生存而撒谎的现象并举例进行说明，A项“动物说谎吗”最适合做标题，故选A。 考点04 外国文化 议论文 （2023·四川成都·中考真题）Host: As we know, the British have been sending cards since the 19th century. They spend about 1,700,000,000 pounds on cards every year. However, the number of people sending cards and letters is falling. More than 30 percent of UK children have never sent or received a handwritten letter. Should the tradition of sending cards and letters be stopped? Group A: We live in a fast-developing world and using snail mail is unnecessary. Making paper uses lots of energy and some cards are hard to recycle. It’s bad for environment. What’s more, cards are expensive to buy and so is posting. Nowadays, we usually use our phones and computers because they are quick, easy and free. Traditional cards and letters are out of date. They are not young people’s cup of tea. It’s no surprise that most of them end up as litter. Group B: The tradition has been around for hundreds of years and should stay. Sending a handwritten letter or carefully chosen card shows that you care. Phone messages and emails are quick and easy, but they seem to carry less feeling. Sending letters is good for children because it is a chance to practice writing skills. Also, it’s fun!

It’s bad for environment. What’s more, cards are expensive to buy and so is posting.

Another kind of bird, the scrub jay, buries （埋） its food so it always has something to eat. Scrub jays also steal food. They watch where others bury their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when others are watching them. So they get back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else. Chimpanzees can also be sneaky. After a fight, the losing chimpanzee will give its hand to the other. When the winning chimpanzee puts out its hand, too, the chimpanzees are friendly again. But an animal expert once saw a losing chimpanzee take the winner’s hand and start fighting again. When chimpanzees find food, it’s natural for them to cry out. Then other chimpanzees come running. But some clever chimpanzees learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimpanzees don’t hear them, and they don’t need to share the food. 26．Why does the plover pretend to be hurt? A．To show its friendliness. B．To save its young.

C．They bury the food twice. 28．What will the chimpanzee probably do after crying softly? A．It will eat all the food it finds. B．It will share the food with others.

They spend about 1,700,000,000 pounds on cards every year. However, the number of people sending cards and letters is falling. More than 30 percent of UK children have never sent or received a handwritten letter. Should the tradition of sending cards and letters be stopped? Group A: We live in a fast-developing world and using snail mail is unnecessary. Making paper uses lots of energy and some cards are hard to recycle. It’s bad for environment. What’s more, cards are expensive to buy and so is posting. Nowadays, we usually use our phones and computers because they are quick, easy and free. Traditional cards and letters are out of date. They are not young people’s cup of tea. It’s no surprise that most of them end up as litter. Group B: The tradition has been around for hundreds of years and should stay. Sending a handwritten letter or carefully chosen card shows that you care. Phone messages and emails are quick and easy, but they seem to carry less feeling. Sending letters is good for children because it is a chance to practice writing skills. Also, it’s fun!
