This question came to my mind the other day while I was sitting outside. I heard some birds making what sounded like a distress call (求救信号). I looked around and saw a cat crouched low in the grass, ready to attack the birds. But the cat was too late. The birds suddenly flew to s 1 . The loud calls had alerted them to the danger. I did some r 2 and, to my amazement, I learned that all animals communicate. They don’t use language, but they do send signals and messages to each other, mainly t 3 sounds, smells, and body language. The alarm call is one way that sounds are used for communication. When a predator (捕食者) is near, animals send out a warning sound. Those who h 4 it run, hide, or gather to fight the invader. Birds sing beautiful songs to attract mates during breeding season. Whales (鲸) are well known for their a 5 to communicate with complex vocal sounds. Humans don’t understand these sounds, but in their own social groups, whales understand w 6 they’re saying to each other. Smell is another popular m 7 of animal communication. Simple animals such as the single-celled amoeba give off a chemical that other amoebae recognize as a signal for reproduction. Some animals send out a strong smell, which is c 8 as a warning signal to keep other animals staying away from them. For example, skunks release a terrible odour when they feel threatened. There are many e 9 of animals that use body language to communicate. Chimpanzees touch hands when they meet. When angry, gorillas stick out their tongues. Think of a happy dog wagging its tail. Even humans understand this form of dog body language. Humans have d 10 a complex system to communicate with each other. But if you watch other animals for a while, you quickly come to appreciate that they too have ways of getting their messages across. 【答案】 1．(s)afety 2．(r)esearch 3．(t)hrough 4．(h)ear 5．(a)bility 6．(w)hat 7．(m)ethod 8．(c)onsidered 9．(e)xamples 10．(d)eveloped 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了动物沟通的方式。 1．句意：鸟儿突然飞到了安全的地方。根据“I looked around and saw a cat crouched low in the grass, ready to attack the birds.”和“But the cat was too late.”可知，在猫抓到鸟之前，小鸟已经飞到了安全的地方，需填名词safety“安全的地方”。故填(s)afety。 2．句意：我做了一些研究，令我惊讶的是，我发现所有的动物都能交流。根据“...I learned that all animals communicate”可知，作者做了些研究，发现动物们也能够交流，需填不可数名词research“研究”，do research“做研究”。故填(r)esearch。 3．句意：它们不使用语言，但它们确实相互传递信号和信息，主要是通过声音、气味和肢体语言。根据“They don’t use language, but they do send signals and messages to each other, mainly...sounds, smells, and body language.”可知，这里需填介词through，表示动物们主要通过声音、气味和肢体语言进行交流。故填(t)hrough。 4．句意：听到声音的人要么逃跑，要么躲起来，要么集合起来对抗入侵者。根据“When a predator (捕食者) is near, animals send out a warning sound.

He became the t 1 Chinese writer to win a Hugo award after Liu Cixin in 2015 and Hao Jingfang in 2016. When creating The Space Time Painter, Hai Ya got his i 2 from a famous painting, A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains. It is by Wang Ximeng from the Song Dynasty (960-1279). Based on Wang, Hai created a character named Zhao Ximeng w 3 painted for an emperor more than 1,000 years ago.

This question came to my mind the other day while I was sitting outside. I heard some birds making what sounded like a distress call (求救信号). I looked around and saw a cat crouched low in the grass, ready to attack the birds. But the cat was too late. The birds suddenly flew to s 1 . The loud calls had alerted them to the danger. I did some r 2 and, to my amazement, I learned that all animals communicate. They don’t use language, but they do send signals and messages to each other, mainly t 3 sounds, smells, and body language. The alarm call is one way that sounds are used for communication. When a predator (捕食者) is near, animals send out a warning sound. Those who h 4 it run, hide, or gather to fight the invader. Birds sing beautiful songs to attract mates during breeding season. Whales (鲸) are well known for their a 5 to communicate with complex vocal sounds. Humans don’t understand these sounds, but in their own social groups, whales understand w 6 they’re saying to each other. Smell is another popular m 7 of animal communication. Simple animals such as the single-celled amoeba give off a chemical that other amoebae recognize as a signal for reproduction. Some animals send out a strong smell, which is c 8 as a warning signal to keep other animals staying away from them. For example, skunks release a terrible odour when they feel threatened. There are many e 9 of animals that use body language to communicate. Chimpanzees touch hands when they meet. When angry, gorillas stick out their tongues. Think of a happy dog wagging its tail. Even humans understand this form of dog body language. Humans have d 10 a complex system to communicate with each other. But if you watch other animals for a while, you quickly come to appreciate that they too have ways of getting their messages across. （23-24九年级上·江苏盐城·期末）根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，使短文意思完整。答题卡上填写包含首字母在内的完整单词。 All of Sandy’s teachers and classmates praised her designs for the art festival.

Marley used to be just l 5 Scrooge, so he was punished after he died. He warns Scrooge to c 6 his ways if he doesn’t want to end up like him. He also tells Scrooge to expect three spirits to visit him.· That night, three ghosts visit Scrooge.

We then tied the bags very tight(紧的), so the babies would not fall out. After that, we used cardboard (纸板) to make some arms, legs and a face for our flour babies, and then we d 5 them in old pieces of clothing. My baby looked strange, as I am not good at art, but it was great fun. When we finished, our teacher gave us all notebooks to record some funny e 6 with the babies for the whole week. We had to carry them with us every day and look after them like real babies. That was really hard work! For example, one of my friends had quite a bad memory, and he l 7 his flour baby on the bus one morning. We also had to feed the baby and get it for bed in the evening. Every night, I was supposed to get up three t 8 to feed the flour baby. I was tired and fell a 9 very quickly. Yet it was just a few hours before my alarm clock woke me up again. I got so little sleep t 10 I had black bags under my eyes. It was a hard time, but now the project is finished. I feel I have learnt that it is not easy to be a responsible(负责的) parent. I think it also gives me a new perspective (观点) on what my parents have done for me. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
