Although there are different ideas about how animals experience emotions, their action showed that animals experience things like happiness, sadness, nervousness and excitement. Whales are quite smart and can show sadness. In 2018, an orca (虎鲸) mother was seen carrying her dead child around for weeks as she was sad about its death. Another example shows that whales can have sympathy (同情心) toward other animals. Humpback whales (座头鲸) have been watched fighting with orcas to protect seals (海豹). They keep the seals out of danger by lifting them out of the water on their backs. Elephants are also known for their ability to show emotions. When an older elephant passes away, its family often stay by the body for a long time, and members will softly touch the dead elephant’s body. And like whales, elephants show sympathy by joining in protective action toward other animals. For example, they’re famous for protecting people from other wildlife. In a study, a group of mice that had experienced electric shocks froze when they saw another group getting shocked. The action was considered to be an empathetic response (共情反应) as the mice became uncomfortable when seeing others in bad situations. Animals are able to show their emotions. They use different kinds of ways such as body language, making sounds and action to show their feelings. At the same time, it is important for human beings to understand the emotions of animals and treat them with kindness. 48. How do scientists learn that animals have emotions? A. By watching animals’ action. B. By experiencing animals’ feelings. C. By discussing with other scientists. D. By studying animals’ living conditions. 49. What does the underlined word “lifting” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Picking. B. Raising. C. Passing. D. Throwing. 50. What are the same things among the three animals mentioned? A. They are all kind to others. B. They are all helpful to human beings. C. They all protect people from other wildlife. D. They all use body language to express emotions. 51. What would be the best structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 52. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Why do animals fight with others? B. What are the secrets behind animals? C. Do animals also show their emotions? D. Can animals understand people’s feelings? 【答案】48. A 49. B 50. A 51. C 52. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了科学研究证实动物和人类一样具有丰富的情感能力，并通过具体案例展示了不同动物表达情感的方式，最后呼吁人类理解和善待动物。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据“an orca (虎鲸) mother was seen carrying her dead child around for weeks”和“Humpback whales (座头鲸) have been watched fighting with orcas to protect seals (海豹).”可知，虎鲸妈妈被看到带着她死去的孩子四处游荡了好几个星期，人们曾看到座头鲸为了保护海豹而与逆戟鲸搏斗。所以是通过观察动物的行为来得知动物有情感。故选A。 【49题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“They keep the seals out of danger by lifting them out of the water on their backs.”可知，座头鲸把海豹背出水面，使它们远离危险。所以划线词意为“托起、举起”，与“Raising”同义。故选B。 【50题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章内容可知，座头鲸保护海豹；大象哀悼死去的成员，并保护人类免受其他野生动物伤害；老鼠看到同类受电击会僵住。所以它们的相同点是表现出对他者的善意。故选A。 【51题详解】 篇章结构题。根据文章内容可知，第一段提出观点——动物有情感；第二、三、四段列举鲸、大象和老鼠的例子来说明该观点；第五段总结全文并呼吁人类善待动物。故选C。 【52题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文讲述了科学研究证实动物和人类一样具有丰富的情感能力，并通过具体案例展示了不同动物表达情感的方式，所以C项“动物也会表达它们的情感吗？”适合作标题。故选C。 根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Children’s Games in Ancient (古代的) China Unlike the children nowadays, the children during ancient times didn’t have smart phones, iPads or computers to enjoy themselves. ___53___ .

C Sky Rescue Team (蓝天救援队) from northern China, was very sad when his team couldn’t save an 84-year-old woman in a broken building in Mandalay on Thursday afternoon. They had tried for three days to help her. Zhang has been doing rescue work for 17 years and said this was the most difficult job he had ever done. More than 140 hours after the earthquake, hundreds of Chinese rescuers are still working hard in the very hot weather (over 40℃). They don’t sleep much because they want to help as many people as possible. One man said the rescuers gave him hope to keep living. Many local people are thankful for the help. A young woman whose father works for a Chinese factory said “Thank you for coming to help us.” Some other people also came to say thank you to the Chinese teams. The weather is very hot and conditions (条件) are difficult, but the rescuers won’t stop. They keep hoping to find more survivors (幸存者) and help Myanmar go over this terrible earthquake. Their hard work and kind hearts are bringing hope to many people who lost their homes. Now, they have started to work again. 43. How long did the team try to save the old woman in Mandalay? A. For two days. B. For three days C. For four days. D. For five days 44. Why did the helpers have less sleep? A. To help more people. B. To stay in a proper place. C. To discuss the cold weather. D.

Although there are different ideas about how animals experience emotions, their action showed that animals experience things like happiness, sadness, nervousness and excitement. Whales are quite smart and can show sadness. In 2018, an orca (虎鲸) mother was seen carrying her dead child around for weeks as she was sad about its death. Another example shows that whales can have sympathy (同情心) toward other animals. Humpback whales (座头鲸) have been watched fighting with orcas to protect seals (海豹). They keep the seals out of danger by lifting them out of the water on their backs. Elephants are also known for their ability to show emotions. When an older elephant passes away, its family often stay by the body for a long time, and members will softly touch the dead elephant’s body. And like whales, elephants show sympathy by joining in protective action toward other animals. For example, they’re famous for protecting people from other wildlife. In a study, a group of mice that had experienced electric shocks froze when they saw another group getting shocked. The action was considered to be an empathetic response (共情反应) as the mice became uncomfortable when seeing others in bad situations. Animals are able to show their emotions. They use different kinds of ways such as body language, making sounds and action to show their feelings. At the same time, it is important for human beings to understand the emotions of animals and treat them with kindness. 48. How do scientists learn that animals have emotions? A. By watching animals’ action. B. By experiencing animals’ feelings. C. By discussing with other scientists. D. By studying animals’ living conditions. 49. What does the underlined word “lifting” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Picking. B. Raising. C. Passing. D. Throwing. 50. What are the same things among the three animals mentioned? A. They are all kind to others. B. They are all helpful to human beings. C. They all protect people from other wildlife. D. They all use body language to express emotions. 51. What would be the best structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 52. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Why do animals fight with others? B. What are the secrets behind animals? C. Do animals also show their emotions? D. Can animals understand people’s feelings? 根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Children’s Games in Ancient (古代的) China Unlike the children nowadays, the children during ancient times didn’t have smart phones, iPads or computers to enjoy themselves. ___53___ .
