B
①To-wit-to-woo, to-wit-to-woo! What's that strange sound coming from the forest in the moonlight? It's an owl (猫头鹰),of course! The owl is different from all other birds in so many ways.
②All day long, seated comfortably in the tree,the owl is sleeping or at least it's trying to snooze,because it's sometimes hard to close the eyes with all the sounds made by the little birds and animals in the forest! The owl hunts (打猎) only at night.When evening comes, the animals all get to a safe place. The owl opens its big, round eyes. Any little animal around had better watch out!
③The owl mostly eats small animals like mice,but it wouldn't say no to another bird if it gets the chance! The owl uses its fantastic hearing to find its food, and then it turns its head from side to side,using its sharp (锋利的) eyes to follow the animal.Finally, it flies down to get the animal. Owls have special, soft feathers (羽毛), so they can fly without making any sound. Owls are such good hunters that they can even catch a fly in the air!
④The owl is always quiet, except when you get too close to its home. The owl is a great mother, who protects her babies by opening her feathers angrily.An owl will even hurt people if she thinks her babies are in danger!
⑤An owl has no teeth, so it eats the whole animal. All the parts of the animal that the owl can't digest(消化) will end up as small pieces. If you find these small pieces, you will know you are near an owl's home.
( )6. The underlined word has the closest meaning to
A. sit B. sleep C. hunt D. fly
( )7. What can we learn about the owl's hunting habit?
A. It goes to a safe place at night.
B. It hunts mostly in the daytime.
C. It may have birds as its meals.
D. It doesn't use its ears to find food.
( )8. Why are owls good hunters?
A. Because they can fly very fast.
B. Because they have dark feathers.
C. Because they are small.
D. Because they can fly with no sound.

If you could be any leaves animal, what would you be? David Attenborough in a sloth hanging in the tree Nueva School says his favourite animal is a sloth because it is always lazy and it needs to do nothing.1.
Sloths usually move up to 40 metres a day.2. And they don't give sloths much energy(能量) to move quickly. Sloths also have the slowest metabolism (新陈代谢) among mammals(哺乳动物). It could take them about 30 days to take in(吸收) one leaf!
3. Sloths spend up to 90% of their lives hanging upside down in trees—— mostly sleeping. A sloth sleeps between 15 and 20 hours each day.4. Don't worry. That's okay for them to fall from 30 metres. Do you know that they may have a fall from trees every week? And if they fall in water, that's okay too. Sloths are good swimmers, and they move faster in water than they do in trees!
5. Many different kinds of algae (藻类) live in a sloth's fur. Because it's warm and sloths don't move much. Interestingly, algae also gives the sloth's fur a green colour—— the same colour as the trees to keep the sloths safe.
A. Sloths' fur is a home for others.
B. There are other fun things about sloths.
C. Sometimes they fall from the high trees.

I often go to the zoo with my parents. We see many animals there, including giraffes, eagles, penguins, and snakes. The giraffes have very long necks, and the eagles look strong in the sky. However, my favourite animals are the penguins. They are black and white and look very cute when they walk. They cannot fly like other birds, but they are excellent swimmers. I like how they play together in the water. Some people think snakes are scary, but I believe all animals are important. We should take good care of them because they are our friends. I hope everyone can love animals and help protect them.
