Toucans (巨嘴鸟), a colorful bird. Take a look at these facts about toucans, and you may learn something you didn’t know before.

Where do they live?

Toucans can be found in the tropical (热带的)forests of South America. Their home is still in danger. The government asks people not to buy rainforest wood. It’s important to protect the habitat (栖息地)of toucans.

What do they look like?

Toucans have a black body and a white neck. The colorful beak is about 8 inches long. It makes up 1/3 of the bird’s total length. It may look pretty big, but thankfully, for the toucan, the beak is not too heavy. It is made of keratin (角蛋白),which makes it much lighter than you would think just by looking.

What do they eat and drink?

Toucans use their beaks to eat different kinds of fruits, which happens to be the kind of food they eat most often. Sometimes toucans will choose to snack on insects, frogs, and the eggs of their birds. Toucans get most of their water from the fruit they eat, so they don’t need to drink too much water.

Believe it or not!

Toucans can be rather lazy birds and they like to stay in one place generally. They don’t fly high up in the sky or very far away from home. They enjoy staying in trees with their delicious fruit to eat.

Wild cats are the predators of toucans in the rainforest. Other predators include larger birds. Some snacks may attack smaller toucans but typically are more interested in the toucans’ eggs instead.

44.  How long is a toucan?

A. About 2.5 inches long.     B. About 8 inches long.

C. About 11 inches long.      D. About 24inches long.

45. Which food do toucans like best?

A. Insects.       B. Eggs.        C. Fruits.    D. Frogs. 

46. The underlined word “predators” in the passage probably means “______________”.

A. Animals that kill and eat other animals.  B. Animals that are similar to other animals.

C. Animals that are friendly to other animals. D. Animals that are the food for other animals.

C

That evening Holmes again wore different clothes, and a large, black hat. He changed his face, his hair－everything. He was a different man.

We walked together to Serpentine Avenue.“You see,” said Holmes to me, “I don’t think she wants others to see the photo. But where is it? At her bank? No. Such a woman likes to keep important things herself. I’m sure it’s in her house.

“But how will you know?” I asked. He said, “She’ll show me. She’ll have to.”

Just then Irene’s taxi arrived. One of the men in the street ran to open the door and then another man pushed him. Other men were also pushing and shouting, and a fight began. Irene was in the middle of it, but Holmes ran to help her. Then suddenly he fell to the ground, with blood running down his face. Irene hurried to her front door, but she looked back. “How kind of him to help me! Is the poor man hurt?” she called.

Some people carried Holmes into the house. I waited outside the window and watched. Then Holmes put up his hand, and I threw the smoke-stick into the room. At once, the people in the street and in the house all began to shout “Fire!” very loudly.

The house was full of smoke. I walked away, and ten minutes later Holmes came to meet me.

“Well done, Watson,” he said. “Have you got the photo?” I asked.

“I know where it is. She showed me,” he answered.

“But why did she show you?”

“It’s easy,” he said, and laughed. “You saw all those people in the street? I paid them to help us. It wasn’t a real fight and the blood wasn’t real. When people shout “Fire!”, a woman runs to the most important thing in her house, her baby, her gold, or ... a photo. Irene ran to find her photo which is in a cupboard in the living room. I saw it. But I did not take it. Tomorrow we will go to the palace and tell it to the King first. The King himself can take the photo from the cupboard. And then we will go .”

47. At first, Holmes changed his clothes to ________.

A. make him smarter      B. take a taxi easily 

C. hide his real looks      D. make Irene surprised 

48. What can we know about the photo?

A. The woman hid it somewhere carefully.

B. It was at Irene’s bank and nobody knew.

C. The king put it in the palace’s cupboard secretly.

D. The king asked Holmes to burn it at Irene’s home.

49. What is the correct order of the following sentences?

a. Holmes changed his looks.

b. Holmes helped Irene.

c. Watson threw the smoke-stick.

d. Irene ran to the cupboard.

e. Holmes paid a lot of men.

A．a-b-c-d-e   B．a-c-d-e-b   C．e-a-b-c-d   D．e-c-d-b-a

50. The story is mainly about ________.

A. where Irene hid the photo     B. how Holmes found the photo

C. why people fought for the photo   D. when the king wanted the photo
