第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
Mandara seemed to know something big was about to happe n. So she let out a yell, caught hold of her 2-year-
old daughter Kibibi and climbed up into a tree. She lives at the
National Zoo in Washington D.C..
And on Tuesday, August 23rd, witnesses said she seemed to sense the big earthquake that shook much of the East Coast before any humans knew what was going on. And she’s not th e only one. In the moments before the quake, an orangutan (猩
猩) let out a loud call and then climbed to the top of her shelte r.
“It’s very different from their normal call,” said Brandie Smith, t he zookeeper. “The lemurs (monkey like animals of Madagas car) will sound an alarm if they see or hear something highly u nusual.”
But you can’t see or hear an earthquake 15 minutes before it happens, can you? Maybe you can——if you’re an animal.“Animals can hear above and below our range of hearing,” sai d Brandie Smith. “That’s part of their special abilities. They’re more sensitive to the environment, which is how they survive.”Primates weren’t the only animals that seemed to sense the q uake before it happened. One of the elephants made a warnin g sound and a huge lizard (蜥
蜴) ran quickly for cover. The flamingoes (a kind of birds) gath ered before the quake and stayed together until the shaking st opped.
So what kind of vibrations (震
动) were the animals picking up in the moments before the qu ake? Scientist Susan Hough said earthquakes produce two ty pes of waves——
a weak “P” wave and then a much stronger “S” wave. The “P”stands for “primary”. And the “S” stands for “secondary”. She t hinks the “P” wave might be what sets the animals off.
Not all the animals behaved unusually before the quake. For example, Smith said the z oo’s giant pandas didn’t jump up unt il the shaking actually began. But many of the other animals s eemed to know something was coming before it happened. “I’m not surprised at all,” Smith said.
21. Why did Mandara act strangely one day?
A. Because it sensed something unusual would happen.
B. Because its daughter Kibibi was injured.
C. Because it heard an orangutan let out a loud call
D. Because an earthquake had happened.
22. According to Brandie Smith,_____________.
A. many animals hearing is sharp
B. earthquakes produce two types of waves
C. primates usually gather together before a quake
D. humans can also develop the ability to sense a quake
23. Which animal seems unable to sense quake?
A. A giant panda.
B. A flamingo.
C. A lemur.
D. A lizard.
24. What is the best title for the passage?
A. How animals survive a quake
B. How animals differ from humans
C. How animals behave before a quake
D. How animals protect their young in a quake
B
Living in the wild can be hard．Finding food and staying safe aren't easy．Each day, animals struggle to survive in their ha bitats．Not all animals get by on their own．Some animals for m a close partnership with other kinds of animals．These pair ings are called symbiotic(共生的)relationships．
In a symbiotic relationship, the animals depend on each other ．One animal helps the other meet its needs．Sounds good, right? Not always．Some animals are not very kind to their pa rtners．In some cases, one animal meets its needs but hurts i ts partner．Take ticks, for example．These insects suck bloo d to live．To get blood, they attach themselves to other kinds of animals．Ticks can pass germs that cause disease instead of helping their hosts．
In other relationships, animals don't treat their partners so poo rly．Both animals benefit from living with the other animal．
Small animals called cleaner shrimps have found a way of hel ping fish at coral reefs．As their name suggests, the shrimps clean the fish．They hang out at what scientists call a cleanin
g station．A fish stops by．Then a shrimp climbs onto the fis
h and even steps into the fish's mouth．The shrimp uses its ti ny claws to pick stuff off the fish's body．That can include dea
d skin, tiny pieces of food, and we
e creatures that can hurt th
e fish．The fish gets a nice cleaning．The shrimp enjoys a ta sty meal o
f fish trash．
Small birds called plovers are also in the cleaning business．They have big customers－
crocodiles．Crocs have long snouts(鼻
子)filled with sharp teeth．Cleaning them is tricky．When a cr oc opens its mouth, the plover hops right in．The croc does n ot snap its snout shut．Instead, it lets the plover eat small, ha rmful animals attached to the crocodile's teeth．The plover ge ts an easy meal while the croc gets clean teeth．
25 The text is mainly about ________．
A．the hard life in the wild B．some dangerous ani mals
C．animals living together D．animals in a symbioti
c relationship
26. According to the text, in a symbiotic relationship, ________．
A．animals depend on each other B． birds depend on animals for food
C． both sides can get help D． not all animals treat their partners well
27. According to the text, it can be inferred that ________．A． living in the wild can be hard
B． different animals have different living ways
C． crocodiles mainly live on plovers
D． ticks are useful to some animals
C
Sweetest Day in America is always the third Saturday in Octo ber. This holiday is much more important in some regions tha n in others (Detroit, Cleveland and Buffalo being the biggest S weetest Day cities). It is a holiday that is gaining in popularity every year throughout the country.
Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October a
s a day to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offer s all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged, and orphaned, but also friends, relatives and associates who se helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.
Over 60 years ago, a man in Cleveland, believing that the city' s orphans and shutins (卧病在床的
人) too often felt forgotten and neglected, thought of the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this thro ugh the distribution of small gifts. With the help of his friends a nd neighbors, he distributed these small remembrances on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Cle velanders began to participate in the celebration ceremony, w hich came to be called “Sweetest Day”. In time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the underprivileged was broad ened to include everyone, and became an occasion for reme mbering others with a kind act or a small remembrance. And s oon the idea spread to other cities all over the country. Sweetest Day is not based on any single group's religious aff ection or on a family relationship. It is a reminder that a thoug htful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning. Becaus e for many people remembering takes the form of giftgiving, S weetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care, in a practical way.
28. We can learn from the first paragraph that Sweetest Day i s ________.
A．sometimes the third Saturday in October
B．hardly celebrated in Detroit
C．of equal importance in every part of the USA
D．getting increasingly popular in the USA
29. Sweetest Day was intended to remember ________. A．the young and disabled
B．friends and relatives
C．orphans and shutins
D．the sick and aged

Living in the wild can be hard．Finding food and staying safe aren't easy．Each day, animal s struggle to survive in their habitats．Not all animals get by on their own．Some animals for m a close partnership with other kinds of animals．These pairings are called symbiotic(共生的)relationships．

Not always．Some animals are not very kind to their p artners．In some cases, one animal meets its needs but hurts its partner．Take ticks, for ex ample．These insects suck blood to live．To get blood, they attach themselves to other kind s of animals．Ticks can pass germs that cause disease instead of helping their hosts．
In other relationships, animals don't treat their partners so poorly．Both animals benefit from living with the other animal．
Small animals called cleaner shrimps have found a way of helping fish at coral reefs．As thei

Sweetest Day in America is always the third Saturday in October. This holiday is much more important in some regions than in others (Detroit, Cleveland and Buffalo being the biggest S weetest Day cities). It is a holiday that is gaining in popularity every year throughout the coun try.
Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone hap py. It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged, and orphaned, but also friends, relatives and associates whose helpfulness and kindness w e have enjoyed.
Over 60 years ago, a man in Cleveland, believing that the city's orphans and shutins (卧病在
床的
人) too often felt forgotten and neglected, thought of the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this through the distribution of small gifts. With the help of his friends an d neighbors, he distributed these small remembrances on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Clevelanders began to participate in the celebration ceremony, whi ch came to be called “Sweetest Day”. In time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to th e underprivileged was broadened to include everyone, and became an occasion for rememb ering others with a kind act or a small remembrance. And soon the idea spread to other cities all over the country.
Sweetest Day is not based on any single group's religious affection or on a family relationshi p. It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning. Because for many people remembering takes the form of giftgiving, Sweetest Day offers us the opport unity to show others that we care, in a practical way.
28. We can learn from the first paragraph that Sweetest Day is ________.
A．sometimes the third Saturday in October
B．hardly celebrated in Detroit
C．of equal importance in every part of the USA
D．getting increasingly popular in the USA
29. Sweetest Day was intended to remember ________.
A．the young and disabled
B．friends and relatives
C．orphans and shutins
D．the sick and aged
30. We can infer from the passage that the birthplace of Sweetest Day is ________. A．Detroit B．Cleveland C．Buffalo D．Washington
