“Can I have a horse, mum and dad?” Nora asked her parents.
“If you want to keep a horse, make sure it has somewhere to run every day. It also needs fresh air and warm sunshine,” said his mother with a smile.
Nora was sad that she couldn’t have a horse.
“Don’t be sad, Nora. We can’t keep horses, but we can keep a small animal of a better size in our flat, can’t we?” Nora’s father asked. Nora thought her parents had a point. She is also excited about being able to choose another pet.
On the second Saturday morning, Nora asked her parents, “Can we go to the pet shop today and pick out a pet I like?” “Of course,” Nora’s parents said. So that afternoon, they took a bus to the biggest pet store in their town. There were about a hundred different kinds of pets there.
“Wow! Mom and dad, look! How lovely the little dog is!” Nora said. “If we have a puppy, we can buy toys and collars and feed him food.”
“I’m sorry, Nora, but our apartment is a little small for the dog. There are other smaller pets you can choose from. You can look at others.” Nora stood with her watery eyes fixed on kittens, frogs, turtles, goldfish, rabbits, but each animal was so lovely that Nora couldn’t seem to make up her mind for a while. She was very sad.
Then Nora heard a song. Which bird was singing? Nora found a bright yellow canary. He started to sing his song again, and Nora thought he was singing just for her.
Finally, Nora knew which pet she wanted. Nora carried the canary home in a new cage. Nora was very happy with her new pet. “I’m going to call him Sonny because he’s yellow like the sun,” said Nora. At home, Dad hung Sonny’s cage up in the living room. Sonny sang loudly.

Elephants shouldn’t be in captivity(圈养)
Elephants are really fantastic animals. We now have good reasons to believe that they are some of the most clever and social animals around. This makes us think about how we should take care of them.
In the past ten years, there have been stories about elephants with surprising skills. Scientists (科学家) have found that elephants are even cleverer than we thought before.
Elephants in the wild show their intelligence (智慧) in many ways. For example, they remember where water holes (坑) are and go back there to drink later. They can use their trunks to get food and water in hard-to-reach places. They might even know who they are.
New studies tell us that wild elephants have many other special social skills.
They talk to each other in different ways and make decisions together. They work together to solve problems. Also, elephants are very helpful to each other. Mothers and children stay together in families. They take care of each other’s babies and protect the young ones. What’s more, elephants have strong friendships. They are sad when one of them dies. When one elephant is sad, others try to make it happy. When they succeed (成功), they celebrate together.
Some scientists think elephants shouldn’t be in captivity. Zoos can’t give them the right living environment like the wild. Their great intelligence means they need more space. We should think about setting them free. Keeping such clever animals in captivity is wrong. In the future, we might look back and be surprised that we ever did this.
32.What have scientists found in the past ten years?
A.Elephants are more social than before. B.Elephants have the same skills as humans.
C.Elephants are cleverer than we thought before. D.Elephants have the intelligence to make stories.
33.According to Paragraph 3, how do elephants show their intelligence?
A.They can remember places with water. B.They can use their trunks to know weather.
C.They build their homes in small water holes. D.They talk to other animals to know each other.

C.Elephant babies live away from their mothers. D.People have strong friendships with elephants.
35.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To call on people to set elephants free. B.To talk about the food problems of animals.

Hummingbirds (蜂鸟) are small birds with beautiful feathers (羽毛). They can stay still (不动的) in the air and fly backward. This makes them special among all the birds. They live in warm places with many kinds of flowers to eat. They help plants grow by carrying pollen (花粉) between flowers.
Even though they are small, hummingbirds eat a lot. Their hearts run fast, so they need lots of energy. To have enough energy, they eat almost all day long. They often drink sweet water from flowers with their long, thin mouth.
Hummingbirds travel far to find good homes. Some go from North America to Central America each year. Soon after they build their homes, female hummingbirds lay eggs. Their eggs are very small. Baby birds come out after two weeks. Their mums bring back the food and feed them.
We should protect hummingbirds by keeping their homes safe. People can also put out bowls with sweet water to help them get enough food during warm times.

16.句意:有一个经常被问到的问题——哪一个更好,为什么?
rule规则;question问题;friend朋友;pet宠物。根据“which one is better and why?”可知,这是一个经常被问到的“问题”。故选B。
17.句意:如果你问我,我会说我喜欢猫。

“Wow! Mom and dad, look! How lovely the little dog is!” Nora said. “If we have a puppy, we can buy toys and collars and feed him food.”
“I’m sorry, Nora, but our apartment is a little small for the dog. There are other smaller pets you can choose from. You can look at others.” Nora stood with her watery eyes fixed on kittens, frogs, turtles, goldfish, rabbits, but each animal was so lovely that Nora couldn’t seem to make up her mind for a while. She was very sad.
Then Nora heard a song. Which bird was singing? Nora found a bright yellow canary. He started to sing his song again, and Nora thought he was singing just for her.
Finally, Nora knew which pet she wanted. Nora carried the canary home in a new cage. Nora was very happy with her new pet. “I’m going to call him Sonny because he’s yellow like the sun,” said Nora. At home, Dad hung Sonny’s cage up in the living room. Sonny sang loudly.

Elephants shouldn’t be in captivity(圈养)
Elephants are really fantastic animals. We now have good reasons to believe that they are some of the most clever and social animals around. This makes us think about how we should take care of them.
In the past ten years, there have been stories about elephants with surprising skills. Scientists (科学家) have found that elephants are even cleverer than we thought before.
Elephants in the wild show their intelligence (智慧) in many ways. For example, they remember where water holes (坑) are and go back there to drink later. They can use their trunks to get food and water in hard-to-reach places. They might even know who they are.
New studies tell us that wild elephants have many other special social skills.
They talk to each other in different ways and make decisions together. They work together to solve problems. Also, elephants are very helpful to each other. Mothers and children stay together in families. They take care of each other’s babies and protect the young ones. What’s more, elephants have strong friendships. They are sad when one of them dies. When one elephant is sad, others try to make it happy. When they succeed (成功), they celebrate together.
Some scientists think elephants shouldn’t be in captivity. Zoos can’t give them the right living environment like the wild. Their great intelligence means they need more space. We should think about setting them free. Keeping such clever animals in captivity is wrong. In the future, we might look back and be surprised that we ever did this.
32.What have scientists found in the past ten years?
A.Elephants are more social than before. B.Elephants have the same skills as humans.

Even though they are small, hummingbirds eat a lot. Their hearts run fast, so they need lots of energy. To have enough energy, they eat almost all day long. They often drink sweet water from flowers with their long, thin mouth.
Hummingbirds travel far to find good homes. Some go from North America to Central America each year. Soon after they build their homes, female hummingbirds lay eggs. Their eggs are very small. Baby birds come out after two weeks. Their mums bring back the food and feed them.
