Sometimes animals can do strange things. Here are two true stories about people and animals. A pet lizard was kept in a biology classroom. The students looked after it well and loved having it in the classroom. However： large lizards like being alone and don’t really like lots of people around them all the time： especially noisy girls and boys at school. The large lizard noticed that whenever the alarm bell rang during the school’s practice fire drills （消防演练）： all the children and their teachers ran out of the classroom： leaving the lizard behind： in peace and quiet for a while. Over several weeks： there were quite a few false （假的） fire alarms. Someone noticed that every time the alarms went off： the lizard was out of its cage （笼子）. So： the children decided to watch the lizard. To their surprise： they found that it climbed over to the fire alarm on the back wall and set it off （弄响）! The lizard just wanted to be left alone.

A tourist was driving along a road one evening： and he accidentally ran over a kangaroo. The tourist thought that no one would believe him： so he decided to take a photo of the kangaroo with his mobile phone. He picked the dead kangaroo up and put it next to the car. He then took off his jacket and sunglasses and put them on the kangaroo to make his photo more interesting. All went well： suddenly： the kangaroo woke up! It had only been knocked out but not actually dead! As soon as the kangaroo woke up： it ran away： wearing a jacket： which kangaroo also included three credit cards （信用卡）： one passport and $1：000 in cash! What a lucky kangaroo!

Why are dogs our best friends. Maybe because they can understand our words much better than we thought： according to a study in Hungary. It found that dogs understand not only what we say： but also how we say it.

“The results were very exciting and very surprising.” Said the researcher Attila Andies： from Eotvos Lorand University in Budapest.

For the study： the researchers first trained 13 dogs for months. The dogs had to sit quietly inside machine： so that the researchers could check their activity.

Then the researcher put headphones on dogs and played people’s voice to them. There were four different voice. Some were positive words：such as “well down”： or neutral（不带感情色彩的） words like “however”. The words were also in different tones（音调）. Some were positive and some were neutral.

Brain scans（扫描）showed that the dogs could recognize（辨认）words： as well as the tone of words： much like people do. The positive words with a positive tone brought the stronger activity in their brain’s reward centers（反应中枢）.

“It shows that for dogs： a nice phrase can work very well as a prize： but it works best if both words and tones match.” Said Andies.

They also found that dogs deal with meaningful words with the left side of the brain and tones with the right. Human brains work in the same way.

It gave us a new understanding of language：said Andies. That is： not only do humans understand the meaning in words： other species（物种）do too.

You may often hear some myths（传言）about animals. For example： one dog year equals about seven human years： chameleons（变色龙）change color to match their environment… Today： let’s talk about birds. It is said that if you touch a baby bird： the parents will completely abandon（抛弃）it. Do you really believe it?

In fact： most birds have a very poor sense of smell： so in most cases they are unable to even notice the smell of humans on baby birds. Not only that： but most types of birds aren’t so quick to abandon their young when they sense danger. Some types will even do their best to protect their young when they are in danger.

Indeed： in very few known cases： parent birds sometimes abandoned their nests from something touching their young： just because they noticed it by sight： not smell. When this happens： the parent birds usually won’t care： other than to be a little more careful than normal. Sometimes： they may temporarily（暂时地）abandon the nest in order to better watch whatever disturbed their nest comes back.

What’s more： in most cases： even if the nest is destroyed by wind or something to that effect： you could create a new one and put all the baby birds back in it： and when the parents came back： they wouldn’t care their baby birds were in a different nest： so long as you put the new nest near where the old one was so they can find it.

41．Which of the following is true?

A．Birds have a very good sense of smell.

B．A baby bird will die soon if it is touched by someone.

C．Whatever disturbed the nest will never come back.

D．Some birds will protect their babies when they are in danger.

42．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A．Their nest.                                                          B．Their baby.

C．Some birds abandoning their nests.              D．Something touching their young.

43．The parent birds _______if we make a new nest for baby birds to take the place of the old one.

A．will never come back                              B．will worry about their babies

C．won’t mind                                                D．will take their babies away

44．Which of the following shows the structure（结构）of the passage?

（①=Paragraph 1(第一段）： ②=Paragraph 2…）

45．What is the best title of this passage?

A．Bird Truth              B．Baby Birds             C．Bird Nests              D．Bird Smell

四、阅读填表

阅读下面短文，完成表格

Do you know all birds protect themselves by always listening and watching out for danger? At the smallest sign of it： they will fly away. Birds that cannot fly are often able to swim fast： or run quickly.

Some birds make themselves look bigger and more dangerous by fluffing (动) their feathers. Another important protection for many birds is their colors. Their feathers often have colors that match the things around their nests (巢) . Some birds change colors with the seasons. In the winter they are white to match the snow. In the summer they are brown to match the ground.

People sometimes kill birds without meaning to. When people cut down forests to build houses and factories： they destroy the homes and food of birds. If the birds have nowhere else to go and nothing to eat： they will die out. Pollution may cause some birds to die. Birds that catch fish from polluted water get poison in their bodies. Then they cannot lay healthy eggs. New birds can’t be born.

Now people protect birds by passing the laws to control hunting and pollution： by setting up some special parks where all the birds are safe from hunters： and by teaching people to care about birds rather than kill them.
