Every day when he gets home,he lets them out,calls their names and watches them landing on his hands.He used to like cats but fell in love with birds after a friend gave him one. In China,bird-keeping was usually for the elderly in the past.But now more and more young people are keeping birds as pets.Parrots,especially parakeets and cockatiels,are the top 崇茶 choices. Cost is an important reason for this.On Taobao,a small parakeet costs as little as 40 yuan.Birds are also cheap to feed.Their food is usually a mix of corn,vegetables and fruits."I used to spend about 1,500 yuan on a-three-month supply of food for my four cats,but a three-month bill for my three birds is less than 20 yuan,"said Wu."It's much cheaper than keeping cats." Wu finds parrots to be his perfect friends."If I let the birds out,they'll always stay close to me," he said."They stand on my shoulder when I watch TV.When I'm feeling a little down,I stroke 训烂 抚)them,and that cheers me up.” ▲Parrots get sick easily because of their small size and fast metabolism（新陈代谢).What's worse,vets (are often hard to find.Sun Huicong,a teacher in Foshan,knows this well. Earlier this year,his parrot "Facai"had difficulty in laying an egg.The operation and trip to the vet in 筑 Guangzhou were costly and took time.But Sun was glad that Facai got better quickly after receiving help in time.After all,not all bird lovers can count on this. )1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A.What do parrots look like? B.Why did Wu Junhui like cats? C.How many cats did Wu Junhui keep?D.How much does Wu Junhui love parrots? ·65· (）2.What does the underlined word“this”refer to in Paragraph3？ A.Only old people kept birds in the past. B.Parrots are the best choices for bird lovers. C.There are many kinds of birds in the market. D.Keeping birds are more and more popular with young people. (）3.Which of the following can be the best to fill in“▲”in Paragraph5? A.But owning birds also need some care. B.So owning birds is easy and interesting. C.So more people now choose to own birds. D.However,bird owners also have problems. ()4.What's the best title for this passage? A.Cats or birds B.Wu Junhui's lovely parrots C.The ups and downs of keeping birds D.The cost advantage of having birds B Can dogs and cats get along well in the same home?People who are thinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight.A study finds that if the cat is taken back home before the dog,and if they are introduced when still young less than 6 months for cats,a year for dogs),it is highly possible that the two pets will get along well.In two thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship. However,it wasn't all sweetness and light.There was coldness between the cat and dog in 25%of the homes,while aggression (and fighting were found in 10%of the homes.One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different.For example,when a cat turns its head away it means aggression while a dog doing the same means submission () In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully,researchers found something surprising.They are learning how to talk each other's language.It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk "Dog",and dogs can learn how to talk“Cat”. What's interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter.They can learn to read each other's body languages,showing that the two may have more in common (than we thought.Once they understand each other's body language,cats and dogs can play together,and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. The importance of this research on cats and dogs may go more than pets-to people who don't get along well,including neighbors,colleagues at work,and even countries.If cats and dogs can learn to get along,why can't people do? ()5.Some cats and dogs may fight when A.they are cold to each other B.they look away from each other …66 C.they don't understand each other's body languages D.they are introduced at an early age ()6.What is found surprising about cats and dogs? A.They eat and sleep together. B.They watch each other's behaviors. C.They learn to speak each other's language. D.They know something from each other's voices. ()7.According to Paragraph 4,cats and dogs A.have common interests B.are less different than we thought C.have a common body language D.are not so smart as was expected ()8.What can we learn from cats and dogs? A.We should learn to get along well with others. B.We should know more about animals. C.We should live in peace with animals. D.We should learn more body languages. C Cats don't seem very friendly.Unlike dogs,they don't like to play with people often and most of the time they choose to stay alone.However,a new study shows that we had a wrong idea of cats.They are just as strongly bonded(建立联系的)to us as dogs. Researchers at Oregon State University,US,studied cats'relationships with their owners ( recently.They invited the owners of 117 cats to take a test.It is often used to test the bonds dogs have with their caretakers. In the six-minute test,cat owners walked into an unfamiliar（不熟悉的)room with their pets.. After staying together in the room for two minutes,the owners left,leaving the cats alone there.This made the cats feel nervous and stressed(焦虑不安的).They hid(躲藏)themselves in the corner or miaowed for help.When the owners returned two minutes later,the researchers watched carefully to see what the cats would do.Of all the cats,about two out of three came to greet their owners when they returned.The cats then went back to looking around the room but still returned to their owners now and then. These cats,the researchers said,saw their owners as a source (of safety in an unfamiliar place.The findings are similar to those found in a study on dogs.Fifty-eight percent of dogs acted just like the cats. "The idea that cats like to stay alone or don't really care about people isn't true.We should change our ideas about cats,"said Kristyn Vitale,a scientist who led the study. ·67· ()9.What are cats like in most people's eyes? A.They don't seem as friendly as dogs.B.They like staying together with other cats. C.They have strong bonds with dogs. D.They like to be around people like dogs do. ()10.How long did the owners stay with their cats in the room during the test? A.One minute.B.Two minutes.C.Four minutes.D.Six minutes. ()11.What did the cats do when their owners came back? A.They just did the same thing they were doing when their owners went away. B.All of them greeted their owners happily. C.They stayed with their owners the whole time. D.Most of them stayed around their owners from time to time(时不时). ()12.Which is NOT true according to the passage? A.Cats feel safe with their owners. B.Dogs are friendly to people. C.Cats don't really care about their owners. D.Cats rely (more on their owners for safety than dogs. D Liu Wei often works at night.He searches in parking lot.He hides himself in long grass.He carefully checks underground pipelines ()The 35-year-old man from Shanghai is a detective )He's not catching criminals,though.Instead,he's looking for people's missing pets. Liu began to do the job in 2012.He has helped to find more than 1,000 cats,dogs,lizards and even snakes for their owners so far."It's a great sense of achievement when I finally find a missing pet after days of hard work,"he said. Before heading out,Liu usually asks his clients ()many questions about their lost pets.The information helps him decide where to start.He also knows how to make good use of modern equipment. For example,an infrared thermal imager（红外热像仪)can be helpful in locating a pet that may be hiding in a hole.In Liu's experience,cats have a better chance of being found.They just hide in dark, small places instead of moving very far away.Dogs,however,are more likely to be stolen.This makes finding a missing dog more difficult. The pet detective business (has been growing fast in recent years as more people keep pets at home.Hiring (a pet detective is not cheap.It can cost more than 10,000 yuan,but it's worth it for pet owners..“They're not animals,”Liu said.“They're members of the family.” ()13.How long has Liu Wei been a detective so far? A.For one year. B.Less than ten years. C.More than ten years. D.For 35 years. -68 ()14.Which pet is much easier to be found in Liu's experience? A.Cat. B.Dog. C.Lizard. D.Snake. ()15.The writer use the infrared thermal imager to show the importance of A.finding a missing pet B.modern equipment C.working experience D.clients'information ()16.Why has the pet detective business been growing fast in recent years? A.Because hiring a pet detective is expensive. B.Because only a few people want to do the business. C.Because pets have become family members D.Because more and more people keep pets at home. 第二节阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的 选项。 Can dolphins talk?Maybe they can't talk with words,but they talk with sounds.
