Four Ways Your Cat Tries to Communicate with You

Cats are amazing creatures, and while they can't talk to us, they certainly know how to communicate their needs and feelings. It's just up to us to learn how to listen to what they are saying.

Meowing

Cats meow at their owners for several reasons, including: to ask for food, to greet people, to ask for attention, to let you know they want to go outside/come inside. In addition, elderly cats suffering from cognitive disfunction, similar to Alzheimer's Disease (阿尔兹海默症) in humans, may meow due to becoming confused or disoriented, so we encourage you to schedule an appointment with us if your senior cat seems confused or is meowing more than usual.

Purring

While cats do purr as a sign of contentment, they also do it as a self-comforting mechanism when sick, stressed or injured.If your cat is purring but also showing signs that something may be wrong, like hiding more than usual or refusing food/water, they could be sick or in pain.

Tail Posture

If they hold their tail straight up and have relaxed fur, they're likely to feel happy or curious. But if their fur stands on end while their tail is straight, this indicates fear or anger. Holding the tail low or hidden between the legs indicates insecurity, and a tail that's rapidly twitching back and forth suggests anxiety.

Rubbing

When your cat rubs against your legs or gives you head butts, they are telling you that they love you. That is not the only thing they are doing, though! Cats rub their bodies and cheeks against people and objects to mark their territory and to claim humans, other cats, and various objects as their own.

21.When cats are sick or in pain,what are they likely to do?

A.Meow at their owners.

B.Rub against your legs.

C.Purr and refuse food.

D.Hold their tail straight up.

22.What may a eat show when it hides its tail between legs?

A.Insecurity.   B.Depression.   C.Curiosity.  D.Happiness.

23.Who provides this text most probably?

A.A cat sitter.          B.A cat owner.

C.An animal shelter.    D.A pet healthcare centre.

B

At St.Francis High School in La Canada, Calif., there's something to be said about math teacher Jim Connor.

Truth is, Connor can be a bit of a drudge. But the 70-year-old Vietnam vet says he's not here to entertain his students.“It drives me crazy when people say school should be fun," he says. "I mean, it's nice if it could be, but you can't make school fun.”

And for years, the kids thought that's all there was to him-until last November, when senior Pat MeGoldrick learned they didn't know the half of him.

Pat was in charge of a student blood drive and had just come to Children's Hospital Los Angeles for a meeting. And he says it was weird: whenever he told someone he went to St. Francis High School, they all said,“Oh, you must know Jim Connor. Isn't he wonderful?"

“It was disbelief, really,”Pat says.“It was almost kind of finding this alter ego (另一面) that he has. Inside the blood donor center, Pat found a plaque listing all the top blood donors at the hospital, including the record holder, Jim Connor. Then he learned something even more unbelievable: that whenever Connor isn't torturing kids with calculus (微积分)，he's on a whole other tangent-cuddling sick babies. Three days a week for the past 20 years, Jim has volunteered at the hospital, stepping in become involved in an activity when parents can't, to hold, feed and comfort their children.

“They tend to calm for him," Nurse Erin says. "They tend to relax with him. They fall asleep with him."

“I just like them and relate to them somehow," Connor says.

Connor has never been married; he has no kids of his own. But he has fallen hard for these babies.

“I've always respected him, but now it's to an even different degree--really to the point where I try to emulate him," Pat says.“He's the epitome of a man of service."

24.What do we learn from paragraph 2?

A.School can never be fun.

B.Connor is highly demanding.

C.Connor's students drive him crazy.

D.Connor thinks education is for all.

25.What did Pat find out about Mr Connor?

A.Mr Connor donated blood as well as his time.

B.Mr Connor was awarded for his love toward babies.

C.Mr Connor used to be a very strict teacher.

D.Mr Connor had a unique teaching philosophy.

26.Which of the following is true about Mr. Connor?

A.He works two shifts every day for a living.

B.He has his alter ego in the eyes of his students all the time.

C.He has the ability to connect with those kids he holds.

D.He falls hard for those sick kids so he decided not to have his own.

27.What is the best title for the text?

A.Bonding with babies in need of love

B.A real lesson is life through learning calculus

C.Everybody keeps something under his hat

D.Tough teacher has a soft heart

C

Yesterday, after a day of Zoom (视频会议软件) meetings in my living room, I stepped out for a walk, leaving my teen son bored on the couch. Bleecker Street, usually packed with people, was sprinkled with only the occasional pedestrians. Bars and restaurants lining the street were dark. Stores with bright neon lights, doors open, beckoned for the rare passers-by to enter. After just a week of the Covid-19 pandemic, an afternoon walk in Greenwich Village neighborhood felt surreal.

But then I noticed a row of daffodils (水仙) reaching for the sun in the small triangle-shaped park by Minetta Lane. On the windows of a locked restaurant, in bright yellow paint, were the words “We love you, West Village. Take care of each other." My phone buzzed—a colleague, sent a picture of her newborn baby just home from the hospital. I arrived home to find my son animated on the couch playing a video game virtually with his friends. Life, love, play, and human connection persist, even though our world has been turned upside down.

In my welcome note to the new students in the Fall, I wrote that this year is about our college's core values of inclusion, innovation, and impact and emphasized the power of interconnection. Today,these core values persist, with interconnection taking on even greater significance. Our collaborative spirit has always given us an advantage-academically, creatively, culturally, and now, remotely.

A wise person once told me that getting through a crisis is like being given a new hand of cards in the middle of a game. We are halfway through the semester, with new hands to play, but the game hasn't changed. We will find new ways to continue to work, teach, create, and learn. Let's also continue the informal interactions that make us a community-the study groups,coffee dates, drop-ins just to say hello. In doing so, we will remain connected.

We will come together, from spaces around the world, to meet this new reality. This is who we are. Nothing not space,nor time can keep us from moving forward, together.

28.What can he inferred from paragraph 1?

A.The Covid-19 pandemic is unstoppable.

B.The effects of the pandemic could he easily felt.

C.Nothing is the same except that the business goes slow as usual.

D.People have every reason to be worried about the future.

29.What does the writer include in paragraph 2?

A.Daily routines that seemed insignificant.

B.Reminders that the world has been changed.

C.Events that people can do during the pandemic.

D.Things or people that carry symbolic meanings.

30.What does the underlined word "collaborative" mean in paragraph 3?

A.Cooperative.    B.Pioneering.    C.Independent.  D.Adventurous.

31..What is the main purpose of the text?

A.To express wisdom gained from previous experience.

B.To give people some tips on how to handle a crisis.

C.To deliver an uplifting message over the pandemic.

D.To encourage people to enjoy the great outdoors.

D

For most of our history, humans have been short,a study has found. Until around 150 years ago, few people grew taller than 170 centimeters.

Christiane Scheffler at the University of Potsdam and Michael Hermanussen in Altenhof have spent several years studying the height of people from a wide range of populations. In their latest paper, they combined an existing data of more than 6000 prehistoric human skeletons with multiple studies of more recent historical populations from Europe and the US. They also included their own data on 1666 present-day school children from Indonesia.

In the prehistoric populations,the maximum height for men was 165 to 170 centimeters, while women topped out at 160cm. Today, men in England have an average height of around 175 cm, while for women it is about 162 cm.

But there is significant variation between modern countries. The Indonesian school children in the study were shorter than similarly aged children from the US, despite being well-nourished.

Scheffler and Hermanussen argue that height can be a signal of dominance (显赫地位)，so in societies where it is possible to move up through the social classes, evolution favors individuals who reach a greater height.

Subramanian at Harvard University isn't convinced by the pair's interpretation. His team previously showed that the best predictor of a child's height is the height of their parents. This suggests that the influence of other factors, such as social mobility, is limited.

After assessing nearly 163,000 children living in 55 low and middle-income countries, Subramanian's team found that 42.9 percent had poor nutrition but no sign of stunting (阻碍发育) or other physical indicators of this fact.

This implies there is a lot of hidden malnutrition that doesn't reveal itself through stunting. A person's nutritional condition should be assessed by looking at their diet not their height, says Subramanian.

32.How did Scheffler and Hermanussen conduct the research?

A.Studying the skeletons of prehistoric human.

B.Combining existing data with recent research.

C.Assessing children living in various income areas.

D.Analyzing the results of other scientists' researches.

33.What's Subramanian's attitude towards the explanation of Scheffler and Hermanussen?

A.Worried.           B.Cautious.         C.Doubtful.        D.Supportive.

34.What can we infer from Subramanian's study?

A.Poor nutrition delays physical development.

B.A balanced diet contributes to growing taller.

C.High social classes can reach a greater height.

D.A human's height has little to do with nutrition.

35.What is the text mainly about?

A.The significance that lies in nutrition.

B.The factors that influence human's height.

C.The importance that humans attach to height.

D.The reasons why prehistoric humans were short.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

My heart went out to the drama teacher I read about in a recent news item. Each parent from her class insisted that she cast their own child as Snow White. This reminded me of my seventh grade musical——"The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.” I desperately wanted to play the role of Becky, the female lead who was Tom's girlfriend. __36__

For starters, Becky had to sing numerous solos, and I couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. I also didn't have long blonde curls like pretty Linda Wright who won the part.

I was assigned the non-singing role of Miss Watson, the Maid. I had to wear an ugly dress. And I had only one line to learn,“That's what I say." __37__ Miss Watson was onstage in quite a few scenes,and got to repeat "That's what I say" throughout the play.

At last, our production was put onstage. Imagine my surprise when Miss Watson made the audience laugh out loud each time I piped in with "That's what I say." I hadn't known that she——or I——could be funny, or that her character was important in moving the plot along. __38__

That night, I began to understand that being the star may not be any more fun than being a stand-out in a supporting role. Each person, onstage and backstage, is essential in theater. Without everyone doing their part,the play would be dull as dirt. __39__ If everyone's a star then nothing gets done. It's all noise and chaos.

And so I believe all children should get the opportunity to play Miss Watson, to become someone they didn't know they wanted to be.__40__

A.So it is in life.

B.It was not to be.

C.It was anything but a great part.

D.My Miss Watson turned out to be a hit.

E.It took the entire cast to make a good show.

F.There was an advantage, in my opinion, though.

G I would hope all children could be a hit in life.

It was more than two years since I'd been biking home from work and someone had opened a car door into the bike line, sending me flying like Superman. It caused my __41__ damage.

After that, I worked part-time at my full-time job. I could __42__ only 20 hours a week. I'd hoped I would return to work __43__. But I didn't. After four hours of work, I'd go home and take a three-hour nap. __44__, my employer, unable to let me work part-time for long, __45__ me.

When I told a friend I might never __46__, he responded,“Well...your base intelligence is twice that of a normal person, so it sounds to me that you just can't be a(n) __47__ anymore.

I knew he meant well, but I was still __48__. He assumed that suffering brain damage

meant I was less __49__ than before. And I worried: Is that what everyone else thinks, too?

About nine months ago, I was at a gathering of maybe a dozen __50__ and one man mentioned he'd just left his job __51__ a disability. He mentioned his disability and kept on talking, as __52__ as I might say,“I ate bread for breakfast."Nobody showed a reaction except I felt really __53__ that he had the confidence to say it at all.

I could __54__ my disability at ease, I thought. That's a(n) __55__ I could make.

Three million years may seem like a long time. But when you consider that planet Earth is more than 4.5 billion years old, it is a pretty short period of time.

The blue whale, __56__ (weigh) more than even the biggest dinosaurs, is the largest animal that has ever lived. They can grow __57__ 30 meters long and be as heavy as 130,000 kilograms. __58__ for millions of years, they were not nearly that large, scientists say.“All of a sudden——'boom'——we see them get very big, scientist Nick Pyenson said. He and other __59__ (researcher) recently published an article on whale size. "It's like going from whales __60__ size of minivans (面包车) to longer than two school buses,”Pyenson added.

The scientists believe that a change in the Earth's climate caused whales __61__ (get) so large only about 3 million years ago. This change led to food becoming more __62__ (easy) available. An oncoming ice age made the ocean water cold and brought more nutrients, resulting in more food for large whales. Whales __63__ were able to quickly eat a lot of food survived, and got __64__ (large). Over the next three or four million years, the blue whales grew 10 times bigger than they __65__ (be), the scientists say.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

On a late afternoon, Brandon finished feeding his cows on the farm and decided to go back with his two sons, Louie, 6, and Everett, 3. As they headed for the house, the two boys ran ahead of their father. Suddenly Brandon was aware he forgot to close the door of the barn (牲口棚). He told the boys to wait for him at the gate and returned to lock it. When he was at the gate minutes later, he saw only his youngest son.

“Where's Louie?" he shouted.

"He fell in the hole!" Everett said.

Brandon quickly realized what had happened. Noooo, he thought. Louie can barely swim! He ran to the well and heard Louie splashing, trying not to....Instinctively, he jumped in.

Somehow Brandon managed to grab on to a pipe that ran down the side of the well, which slowed his fall and kept him from crushing (挤压) his son.

Finally, Brandon hit the freezing water at the bottom of the well. He popped his head out of the water and grabbed Louie, who was panicking and trying to stay afloat in water that was too deep for either of them to stand. Knowing they could tread (踩水) for only so long, Brandon lifted his son onto his chest as he packed his own back against the narrow walls for support.

“All right, Dad, you can pull us out now," Louie said.

If only it were that easy. There was no way he could climb out. The pipe that he'd grabbed during his fall was too slippery to be of any use.There was only one way out.

Looking up to see Everett peering down at them from the top of the well, Brandon shouted,“Everett, you're going to have to be a big boy and save us. Run to the road and stand by the mailbox until someone stops. Tell them we need help.

Everett did as he was told. He stood alone by the side of the road, waving to stop someone.

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

After a while, Chris and Mark, nearby farmers, were driving by the farm.

Twenty minutes later, Louie emerged (出现)，then Brandon, both cold and wet.
