C篇 Everyone knows that bees are busy. There is even a saying in English that one can be “as busy as a bee”. However, little is known about how bees play. Researchers have discovered one way that bees could relax after a busy day making honey—they play with balls. The researchers are from Queen Mary University of London. They did different tests on bees “playing” with different things. The insects particularly liked playing with small wooden balls. The researchers said the way bees played was a little like how humans play. Younger bees rolled more balls than older bees, while adult males spent more time playing with balls than adult females did. The researchers experimented on 45 bees in a specially designed test area. The bees were given two options. The first choice was to fly or walk directly to get a sugary treat. The second choice was to get to the treat by going around different colored wooden balls. Most of the bees decided to play with the balls and then get their treat. A researcher said the experiments showed that bees are more thoughtful than people believed. She said, “Bees are a million miles from the mindless, unfeeling creatures they are traditionally believed to be.” She added that,“This research showed that insect minds are far more sophisticated (复杂的) than we might imagine.” 31. The saying “as busy as a bee” is usually used to describe ________. A. the bee that is too busy to have a rest B. the bee that makes plenty of honey every day C. a person who always has a lot of work to do D. the bee that likes playing with balls while relaxing 32. What’s the purpose of the author writing Paragraph 2? A. To tell us bees like to relax by playing with balls. B. To explain why bees relax by playing with balls. C. To list the ways bees relax after a busy day. D. To show how bees are busy making honey 33. The meaning of the underlined word “options” is close to the word “________”. A. boards B. choices C. ways D. chances 34. What can we know from Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4? ①Bees are more thoughtful than people believed. ②Bees are more mindful and much cleverer than humans. ③Insect minds are far more sophisticated than we might imagine. ④Bees prefer to get honey by traveling around balls rather than walking straight to it. A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①③④ D. ①②③④ 35. Where may this article come from? A. A nature magazine. B. A school notice. C. A novel. D. An art book. 四、任务型阅读（每小题2分，共10分） 阅读下面的短文，回答问题。 More and more people keep pets these days. Want to go on vacation together with your pets? Great news is here for you! Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport has built a new terminal (航站楼). It hopes to give a better travel experience to passengers flying with their pets. The terminal is more than 2,000 square metres in size. From the outside, the terminal looks like a colourful candy box. Inside, it’s clean and comfortable too. It offers (提供) many different services for pet travel, such as health checks and ticket bookings. To meet passengers’ needs, there is also a pet hotel in the terminal. It can take care of 17 to 30 pets at the same time. The pet rooms are special and cool. Cats have climbing spaces, and dogs have play areas. During their stay, the pets can get fresh food twice a day. They can also enjoy two hours of outdoor activities. Pet owners can watch their pets through their mobile phones anytime. Starting from May, pet owners can book the new services online. Ms Tang tried the service and said, “It’s a big change for air travellers like me. It used to take me much more time, but now this service makes pet travel quick and easy, cutting the preparation time from a week to just 2 days. And for pets, they can now travel more easily.” A study shows that 25% of air travellers have pets. So, it’s important to have more pet-friendly airports. Let’s hope more airports will follow Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport’s example and create better airport pet terminals. 36.

They did different tests on bees “playing” with different things. The insects particularly liked playing with small wooden balls. The researchers said the way bees played was a little like how humans play. Younger bees rolled more balls than older bees, while adult males spent more time playing with balls than adult females did. The researchers experimented on 45 bees in a specially designed test area. The bees were given two options. The first choice was to fly or walk directly to get a sugary treat. The second choice was to get to the treat by going around different colored wooden balls. Most of the bees decided to play with the balls and then get their treat. A researcher said the experiments showed that bees are more thoughtful than people believed. She said, “Bees are a million miles from the mindless, unfeeling creatures they are traditionally believed to be.” She added that,“This research showed that insect minds are far more sophisticated (复杂的) than we might imagine.” 31. The saying “as busy as a bee” is usually used to describe ________. A. the bee that is too busy to have a rest B. the bee that makes plenty of honey every day C. a person who always has a lot of work to do D. the bee that likes playing with balls while relaxing 32.

To list the ways bees relax after a busy day. D. To show how bees are busy making honey 33. The meaning of the underlined word “options” is close to the word “________”.

What can we know from Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4? ①Bees are more thoughtful than people believed. ②Bees are more mindful and much cleverer than humans. ③Insect minds are far more sophisticated than we might imagine. ④Bees prefer to get honey by traveling around balls rather than walking straight to it.
