There are tw types f peple in the wrld—cat peple and dg peple. Lk at the psts written by dg lvers and cat lvers n scial media. And bth grups have gd reasns.
Dg lvers say that “man’s best friend” is lyal, active and sweet. Cats, n the ther hand, are usually described as elegant and prud “masters”, while their wners are mre like their “servants”.
A new study frm Carrll University in the United States shws that peple may select pets based n their wn persnality（个性、性格）. Fr example, cats are seen as independent animals that keep t themselves and are cautius f thers. “If yu’re like that, yu appreciate（欣赏）that in an animal. It’s a better match fr yu,” said Denise Guastell, ne f the psychlgists（心理学家）wh led the study.
This can be partly explained by the living habits and envirnments that pet wners and their pets have. Think abut it: dg wners g utside t walk their dgs almst every day, but if yu’re quiet and shy, yu’re mre likely t stay indrs with yur cat.
In the wars f dgs VS cats, it seems that dgs are gaining the upper hand.
Hwever, this desn’t mean that there is n hpe fr cats. In Japan, the number f pet cats surpassed（超过）that f dgs last year. With the cuntry facing a lw birthrate（出生率）and a grwing elderly ppulatin, the number f dgs is drpping. This is because dgs need mre care frm their wners and cst mre mney.

A. Peple wh are independent and cautius.
B. Peple wh are prud and graceful.
C. Peple wh like staying indrs.
D. Peple wh are lyal and active.
39.What des the underlined wrd “cautius” mean?
A. Careful.B. Outging.C. Active.D. Happy.
40.Which f the fllwing features belngs t cat peple?
A. Calling up sme friends.
B. Arguing yur pint clearly and firmly.
C. Watching a mvie r ging nline.
D. Liking t watch a cmedy.
41.Which is the best title fr the passage?
A. A new study frm Carrll University
B. Dg peple VS cat peple
C. Wh kind f peple d yu prefer?
D. Persnality differences between dg lvers
(D)

There are tw types f peple in the wrld—cat peple and dg peple. Lk at the psts written by dg lvers and cat lvers n scial media. And bth grups have gd reasns.
Dg lvers say that “man’s best friend” is lyal, active and sweet. Cats, n the ther hand, are usually described as elegant and prud “masters”, while their wners are mre like their “servants”.
A new study frm Carrll University in the United States shws that peple may select pets based n their wn persnality（个性、性格）. Fr example, cats are seen as independent animals that keep t themselves and are cautius f thers. “If yu’re like that, yu appreciate（欣赏）that in an animal. It’s a better match fr yu,” said Denise Guastell, ne f the psychlgists（心理学家）wh led the study.
This can be partly explained by the living habits and envirnments that pet wners and their pets have. Think abut it: dg wners g utside t walk their dgs almst every day, but if yu’re quiet and shy, yu’re mre likely t stay indrs with yur cat.
In the wars f dgs VS cats, it seems that dgs are gaining the upper hand.
