24、   If you have ever had a cat, or have watched one of the many funny cat videos online, you’ll know that cats have a mind of their own. A lot of the things they do are hard to understand---they like to climb up tall furniture, fit themselves in small spaces and attack small objects for no reason at all.

According to Tony Buffington, a professor at Ohio State University in the US, cats’ strange behavior largely comes from their way of life back in the wild.

“Cats today still have many of the same instincts that allowed them to live in the wild for millions of years.” he said in a TED Talk. “To them, our homes are their jungles.”

In the wild, cats are hunters. Their bodies and great balancing abilities allow them to climb to high places to better look at the environment. Even though they don’t have to hunt anymore in human houses, they still keep the old habit of viewing the living room from, for example, the top of the refrigerator.

Cats’ hunting instinct is also what makes them attack small things like keys and USB drives. In the wild, they hunt whatever they can get, and most of the animals they kill are small.

However, cats can also be prey. This explains why they like to stay in small spaces like drawers or washing machines---they are hiding, or they think they are hiding, from more dangerous animals. This is also why cats prefer a clean box; a smelly one could easily show enemies where they are.

But knowing how cats’ minds work is not only useful for better understanding them. It may also help cats’ owners to better meet cats’ needs. For example, owners could try to make climbing easier for cats by moving their furniture around. They could also make eating feel more like hunting instead of just giving food to the cats.

【1】What do cats usually do at home according to the passage?

A.Attack big things or animals B.Climb up some tall furniture

C.Fit themselves into big spaces D.Hunt for food in the house

【2】What does the underlined word “prey” probably mean?

A.The animals that like clean places B.The animals that are dangerous

C.The animals that only eat meat D.The animals that are hunted as food

【3】To better meet cats needs, what can owners do?

A.Put them back in the wild. B.Feed them only small food.

C.Move their furniture around. D.Allow them to watch videos.

【4】What’s the passage mainly about?

A.The food that cats are more likely to eat. B.The places where cats like to hide at home.

C.The common ways cats look after themselves. D.The reasons why cats have strange behavior.

25、阅读并还原句子。根据短文上下文逻辑，为空白处选择恰当的句子，使文章通顺、合理。

Study tours (游学) seem to have become a necessary part for children’s holidays now. When holidays are coming, you may hear a parent talk to another, “I plan to send my daughter on a study tour.”

Cheng Guowei is from a study tour center in Shanghai. “【1】 They want to try their best to give their children better education,” he said.

【2】 That is because during the tours their kids can meet different people, visit famous universities and walk around the cities. 【3】 However, money is a big problem for parents. The cheapest Asian tours need about 10,000 yuan for six to seven days. The trips to English-speaking countries like the USA and Canada cost (花费) at least 20,000 yuan, not including (包括) plane tickets. 【4】

Of course, kids also like study tours. They think they are fun and educational. What’s more, they can stay away from taking classes all day and don’t need to do homework at home. 【5】 They become more outgoing and confident (自信的) when talking with others, as they know more and have more things to share.

A．Why are study tours so popular with parents?

B．Parents are often worried about their children’s education.

C．It is a good way to feel a different educational environment.

D．Kids usually become different when they come back from study tours.

E．So they go to more affordable (负担得起的) places like Japan or Singapore.

26、Eating food is enjoyable, but cooking can be challenging. For those who don’t have basic cooking skills, or are too busy working or traveling. one thing can save them—instant noodles.

This year marks the 63rd anniversary of the invention of instant noodles. Ever since they were created by Japanese businessman Momofuku Ando in 1958, instant noodles have been popular around the world. In China, the product has almost become a necessity for those who travel by train.

There are some fun facts about instant noodles: The total length of the noodles in one package is 51 meters. The first instant noodles were considered a luxury product. When they first came to Japanese supermarket in 1958 they were 6 times the cost of fresh udon noodles. Japanese people even voted instant noodles as one of their best inventions of the 20th century.

For instant noodles, as well as many “instant” foods, convenience is the key selling point. They are supposed to make our lives easier.

___________. For example, in wars, soldiers eat compressed biscuits and canned meat because they don’t need to cook these foods. And in the 1960s, frozen dinners of fried chicken, mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables became popular in the US. This is because more women started working and had no time to cook.

In recent years, however, online meal-ordering services have brought challenge to instant foods. Uber Eats is a popular app of this kind in the United States. In China, we have E le me, Dianping and Meituan. These services offer not only convenience but also more choices and tastier food. According to the World Instant Noodle Association, instant noodle sales dropped by 17 percent in China as of 2016.

This might show that Chinese people are now more interested in having higher-quality diets and not just simply filling their bellies, experts say.

27、Yesterday, Dad and I made a big snowman. I was very cold, so Dad made some delicious soup and bread. When I got sleepy, Dad carried me to my bedroom and said, "Good night, Pumpkin (南瓜)."

This morning, there was a truck (卡车) in front of our house. A truck is not a bad thing unless it' s carrying your dad's things to the other side of town.

When. I lay in bed, I found something under my pillow(枕头）. It was an envelope. I opened it and pulled out a picture of a pumpkin. It was not even close to Halloween.

Mary Anning: The Fossil Hunter

As a fossil（化石）scientist, Mary Anning (1700—1847) made great contributions（贡献）to her field in the 19th century. Her name is now widely known in Britain and even Europe. But that was not always the case.

Anning was a talented woman. She was born in a poor family in Lyme Regis, Britain. She did not receive any proper education and had to teach h【1】 geology（地质学）and paleontology（古生物学）.

Anning grew up by the sea. At a young age, she showed great interest in studying the fossils along the coastline. Anning worked very hard. She went out in all weathers to search for fossils. At the age of 12, she uncovered a skeleton that looked like a crocodile. Then, after ten years of tireless e【2】, she made an amazing discovery. It was a huge fossil of something that the world had never seen before.

However, many of Anning’s findings d【3】 with the widely accepted theories（理论）at that time. So most of the scientists didn’t believe or recognize the value of her findings. What’s more, in that period, people s【4】 respected women. Anning’s findings were even published without her name. During her lifetime, the woman was never s【5】 considered to be a scientist.

But such troubles didn’t stop Anning from making more discoveries. The woman was still keen on studying v【6】 sizes and types of fossils alongside the sea. Some of them were as large as a huge rock while others were smaller than an egg. Until 1829, she carefully uncovered a skeleton of a fossil fish which made her known among first-class scientists. Her discoveries helped to study some extinct（已灭绝的）animals. They formed the basis for Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species（《物种起源》）.

In recent years, more and more people have come to realize the importance of Anning’s work. She is now listed among the top ten British women who have greatly a【7】 the history of science. Anning was an ambitious and hard-working woman in history. She deserves to be remembered.
