These are their pets. People love these pets and regard them as their good friends. Before they keep them at their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them an injection so that they won ’t have illness. There are special animal food stores in every supermarket. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit people ’s homes, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find almost every family has a bird feeder in the garden. They put bird ’s food in it. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go, and nobody is allowed to kill an animal. If you killed an animal, you would be punished . If an animal happened to get hurt by a car, people would be very sad about it.Why do people in Canada like animals? One of the reasons might be: When the children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own life. They come home not very often. So the old will feel lonely. But the animals can give them fun. They can be good friends and never leave them alone.46. This passage tells us that Canadians _______________.A. hate animalsB. often kill animalsC. love animalsD. don ’t keep their pets inside the houses 47. What must people do before they keep their pets at their houses?__________A To give them a body check B. To take some medicine C. To give them a good meal D. To give them an injection 48. Why do they put the bird feeders in their gardens?____________A. They want to catch the birdsB. They want to give the food to all the birdsC. They want to help the sick birdsD. They want to save the birds because they can ’t find any food 49. Which is true?_______________________.A.People have no right to kill animals if they haven ’t got an allowanceB. If you hit an animal carelessly by car, you will be punishedC. An animal ’s life is dearer than a man ’s in Canada?D. People must feed animals at home50. Keeping a pet in the house can make the old __________________.A. people lonelyB. people have troubleC. people ’s life interestingD. people busy all day long C When the weather is hot , you go to a lake or an ocean. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth hot, but it cannot make the water very hot. Although the air over the land becomes hot, the air over the water keeps cool. The hot air over the earth goes up, then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel the cool air. When it moves, you feel wind. And the wind makes you cool.Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask, “Why is the ocean full of salt?” scientists will say that the salt comes from the rocks. The rain then carries the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, “What happens to the salt in the ocean ? The ocean does not get more salty every year.” Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question.We know a lot about our world. But there are still many answers that we do not have, and we are curious.51.
