阅读下列材料,从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选择最佳选项。
A
Many people keep pets in their homes and see them as their family members. Dogs and cats are probably the most common pets. A report shows that among pet owners (主人), 27% keep dogs, 12% keep cats, and 17% keep both of them. What happens when dogs and cats live in the same house?
There is a study of 87 pet owners. All of them keep both dogs and cats. The results of the study are quite interesting. Most of the owners’ dogs and cats get on well (相处融洽) together. Cats often spend time quietly and stay away from dogs. However, dogs often try to show friendly acts.
Only 4% of the owners say their pets run after or fight with each other. This happens mainly because of food. Cats are kinder, and 37% of them even let dogs eat from their food plates. 6% of cats will guard their food, while 7% will make angry sounds when dogs come near, and 4% will drive dogs away. However, only 23% of dogs share their food with cats. 18% will drive cats away, and 12% will make loud sounds when cats try to eat their food.
The dog and the cat also act differently when they stay with their owner. The cat usually takes no notice of the owner and keeps to itself, while the dog often gets close to the owner, hoping the owner can notice it. To get more love and care from the owner, the dog may even try to drive the cat away.
Although dogs and cats might not become best friends, these two different animals can still find ways to share the same home peacefully.

B
“I remember the days when my mother spent hours sweeping the floors and washing clothes,” my friend once told me.
In many homes across China people used to spend a lot of time doing housework. However, the use of automation (自动化) in homes is changing this.
Take my family for example. Not long ago we bought a robotic vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器). My mother uses it to do some cleaning, and now she has more time for her hobbies. This adjustment has not only made her life easier but also brought much joy to our home.
Automation in homes is not just about making our life easier. It’s also about creating a balance in our life. My younger sister was hard to plan her time because of heavy schoolwork in the past, and she often felt stressed (焦虑的). But now she has a smart study planner that helps her keep everything in order. As a result, she is less stressed and does better in school.
Every coin has two sides. Some people think that automation in homes could make us lazy as we depend on (依靠) it too much. Yes, I believe it’s about finding a balance. For example, while our robotic vacuum cleaner does the sweeping and cleaning, we still sometimes need to tidy up ourselves. By making good use of automation and still doing our own work, we can live a better and happier life.
24. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By using someone’s words.
B. By asking a question.
C. By showing some ideas.
25. What does the underlined word “adjustment” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Example. B. Reason. C. Change.
26. What problem did the writer’s younger sister use to have?
A. She had difficulty planning her time because of schoolwork.
B. She had trouble making friends in school.
C. She spent too much time playing games.
27. Why did the writer write the passage?
A. To advise students to help with housework.
B. To introduce some smart home machines.
C. To show his opinions about home automation.
C
The Venus flytrap (捕蝇草) has special leaves that can close quickly to catch insects. When an insect touches the sensitive hairs on the leaves, the trap will snap shut (啪嗒一声合上) in a moment. This is how it gets the nutrients (营养物) it needs.
It is one of the world’s largest flowers, the Rafflesia (大王花), also known as the king flower. It’s huge and has a very strong smell, which is not very nice. It can grow to be over a metre in diameter (直径).
There is an unusual mammal (哺乳动物), the platypus (鸭嘴兽). It has a duck-like bill (喙), webbed (有蹼的) feet, and it lays eggs. It’s really a strange combination that makes it one of a kind in the animal kingdom.
Chimpanzees (黑猩猩) are often regarded as the smartest animals. They have amazing abilities and can learn and remember things quickly. They can use tools, such as using sticks to fish out termites (白蚁) from their nests.
28. How does the Venus flytrap get the nutrients it needs?
