福建省福州市2021年高三下学期高中毕业班3月综合质量检测英语试题
福建省福州市2021年高三下学期高中毕业班3月综合质量检测英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择Aerial(空中的)performer Jennifer Bricker was born without legs, but she never let it stop her.Wrapped in a loop(圈)of red silk hung from the ceiling Jennifer Bricker climbs and twists to the music. Her head hangs down and her strong arms let go as she balances on her back, high above the ground a move that’s all the more daring because she has no legs.Jennifer was a few months old when she was adopted by Sharon and Gerald Bricker. She had big brown eyes, a bright smile, and huge amounts of energy. When a doctor advised her adoptive parents to carry her around in a kind of bucket(桶), they refused.Jennifer soon learned to walk — and run — on her hands and bottom, and grew up fearlessly climbing trees and bouncing on the trampoline (蹦床)with her three older brothers. “ My parents didn’t treat me differently so I didn’t grasp the concept that I was different. I knew I didn’t have legs but that wasn’t stoppi ng me from doing the things I wanted to do. "At the age of three she was fitted with artificial legs, but she never really took to them —she moved more freely without.In 1996 the Olympic Games took place in Atlanta. Jennifer loved to watch the women’s gymnastics team, and especially adored the 14-year-old Dominique Moceanu who competed for the US. When Moceanu and the women’s team won gold, Jennifer decided she was going to be a gymnast, too. She took up power tumbling, which involves performing floor exercises down a runway. But Jennifer did not want any allowances to be made for her disability.At the age of 10 she took part in the Junior Olympics and by age 11 she was tumbling champion for the state of Illinois.Jennifer now travels the world as an inspirational speaker and acts as an aerial performer. 1.What do we know about Jennifer Bricker?A.She felt embarrassed without legs.B.She was brought up as a normal child.C.She was carried in a bucket as a baby.D.She lost her legs when she was adopted.2.Why did Jennifer determine to be a gymnast ?A.She knew that she was different from others.B.She wanted to make allowances for her disabilityC.She was eager to participate in the Junior Olympics.D.She was greatly influenced by Dominique Moceanu.3.Which of the following can best describe Jennifer Bricker?A.Self-respected. B.Cautious. C.Sensitive. D.Clever. 4.What is the passage mainly about?A.The sufferings of a gymnast.B.The memory of an aerial performer.C.The experiences of an adoptive family.D.The growing process of a disabled person.What is TrackR?TrackR is the simplest way to find lost or misplaced items. Join the millions of people who are connected to their most important items.Order a TrackR today and never lose anything again.5.What do you think is the passage?A.Descriptions of several products. B.An advertisement of a product.C.An introduction to lost items. D.Directions of a new item.6.How many functions does a TrackR have?A.Three. B.Four. C.Five. D.Six. 7.Which of the following can replace the underlined “a snap” in the passage?A.An easy job. B.A necessary task.C.An available method D.A quiet action.Booking a trip on an online travel site is convenient, but comes with its own set of problems.◆They know who’s go n e to spend more.Last year, U. S travel research company Orbitz tracked people’s online activities to test out whether Mac users spend more on travel than PC users. Turns out that on average, Mac userslay out US $ 20~30 more per night on hotels. As a result, online travel sites show these users more expensive travel options first. To avoid paying more, sort results by price.◆Their software doesn’t always link to the hotel’s system.A guaranteed reservation is almost impossible to come by anywhere — but the risk of your flight or hotel being overbooked increases with third-party providers. The middleman’s software isn’t immune(防护作用的)to system errors, so always call the hotel or airline to make sure your booking was processed.◆You could miss out on loyalty (积分) points.Third party providers can get between you and frequent flyer miles or points. Many hotel loyalty programs don’t recognize external sites, others award only minimum points without special offers, like double points on hotel stays.◆Don’t be fooled by packages: Often, they’re low-end items grouped together.Ever notice how travel sites recommend a hotel, a rental car, and tour package all in one click. These deals usually feature travel that no one wants, like flights with multiple layovers(中途停留). Check the fine print.◆Once your trip is purchased, you’re on your own.An online travel agency can’t provide assistance the same way an agent can if a flight is cancelled or a room is substandard. Basically, when you arrive at the airport or hot el, you’re just another customer who booked at the lowest rate.8.What does the writer mainly intend to tell readers?A.Tips of how to reserve flights on line.B.Problems of reserving a hotel on line.C.Notices about reserving a trip on line.D.Traps in reserving hotels and flights on line.9.Why do people probably spend more on their online reservation for trips?A.They book at prices offered first by travel sites.B.They are shown less expensive travel options first.C.Some of the travel expenses are earned by Mac users.D.Their flights or hotels are overbooked by tourist agencies.10.Which of the following can replace the underlined “fine print”?A.Detailed items. B.Discounted prices.C.Good deals. D.Special services.11.What can we learn from the passage?A.The third parties will provide good travel services on line.B.Few people book trips on line because of possible troubles.C.Travelers’ interests may not be guaranteed with booking on line.D.Those booking trips on line will benefit much from loyalty pointsAccording to a team of researchers,an animal's ability to perceive(感知)time is linked to their pace of life.“Our results lend support to the importance of time perception in animals where the ability to perceive time in a very short time may be the difference between life and death for fast moving creatures." commented lead author Kevin Healy from Trinity College Dublin.The study was done with a variety of animals using phenomenon based on the maximum speed of flashes of light an individual can see before the light source is seen as constant. Dogs,for example,have eyes with a refresh rate higher than humans.One example of this phenomenon at work,the authors say,is the housefly and its ability to avoid being hit. The research showed flies “ob serve motion in a shorter time than our own eyes can achieve,"which allows them to avoid being hit.Professor Graeme Ruxton of the University of St Andrews in Scotland,who worked jointly on the research project,said in a statement,“Having eyes that send up dates to the brain at much higher frequencies than our eyes do is of no value if the brain cannot process that information equally quickly. Thus,this work highlights the impressive abilities of even the smallest animal brains. Flies might not be deep thinkers,but they can make good decisions very quickly. ”In comparison,the tiger beetle(虎甲虫)runs faster than its eyes can keep up,basically becoming blind,which requires it to stop periodically to re-evaluate its prey's(猎物)position.Our results suggest that time perception offers an as yet unstudied dimension along which animals can specialize and there is considerable range to study this system in more detail. 12.What is the research mentioned in the passage mainly about?A.Pace of life of animals. B.Impressive abilities of animals. C.Lifetime of small animals. D.Time perception of animals. 13.What does Kevin Healy's comment mean in Para.2?A.The survival of fast moving animals relies on their ability to perceive time.B.Animals with quicker pace of life have better perception of time.C.The ability of animals to perceive time depends on their high moving speed. D.Animals with poor ability of time perception have a shorter life.14.Why can houseflies avoid being hit?A.They can think very deeply before they act.B.They can process the information as quickly as they receive it.C.They can fly much faster than their eyes can keep up.D.They can send information to brain more quickly than to their eyes.15.What will a tiger beetle have to do to catch a moving prey?A.Slow down to gain its time perception.B.Prevent itself from becoming blind.C.Stop occasionally to spot the prey again.D.Try to run as fast as it can.二、七选五根据短文内容,从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AWant to be more successful? If so,then you need to read a few self-help books.Here are four popular ones to get you going.59 Seconds ( 2009) by Richard WisemanThis is a self-help book with a difference. Wiseman,a scientist,uses science to prove many self-help myths(神话) are false. For example,self-help books say that if you want to achieve a goal,you should visualize it. But Wiseman says that's the worst thing to do. Studies show that you need to visualize the steps required to achieve the goal.How to Win Friends& Influence People ( 1936) -by Dale CarnegieThis is the book that launched the self-help type. Carnegie says financial success is 15% professional knowledge and 85% the ability to express ideas,assume leadership,and motivatepeople. The book is full of practical advice on how to influence people by making them like you.The Millionaire Next Door (1996) by Thomas Stanley & Wlliam DankoThe authors of this book spent years interviewing American millionaires to figure out the secrets of their success. And they discovered that a majority of millionaires don't live luxury lifestyles. They're rich because they live below their means and reinvest what theyearn.Who Moved My Cheese? (1998)-by Spencer JohnsonWho Moved My Cheese? An Amazing Way to Deal with Change in Your Work and in Your Life,published on September 8,1998,is a motivational business fable(寓言). The text describes change in one's work and life,and four typical reactions to those changes by two mice and two "little people",during their hunt for cheese.21. What is the key to achieving success in 59 Seconds?A. To employ science.B. To follow examples.C. To picture procedures.D. To visualize the goal.22. What is Dale Carnegie's book mainly about?A. How to master occupational knowledge.B. How to apply practical techniques.C. How to gain strong management.D. How to become popular persons.23. Which book can help you adapt to change in your life?A.59 SecondsB. Who Moved My Cheese?C. The Millionaire Next DoorD. How to Win Friends& Influence PeopleBWhen Millet was a boy he worked on his needy father's farm. At the rest hour in the fields the other workers would all take naps,but young Millet would spend time drawing,Finally the village where he lived gave him a little money to Paris to study art.When Millet reached Paris he had a tough time. Fortunately,when he was almost starving,someone bought one of his peasant paintings,which enabled his family to leave for Barbizon.Millet's pictures of peasants at work were painted in a unique way. The painter would go out on the farms and watch them carefully-- digging,hoeing,spreading manure,sawing wood,or sowing grain. Then he would come home and paint what he had seen. So astonishingly accurate was his memory that he could paint at home without models and get all the movements of his figures right. When he did need a figure to go by he would ask his。

A1 Doha, QatarQatar is currently involved in a major conflict with many other countries in the Middle Eastern region, but visitors to its capital , Doha, will still find themselves in the safest city in the world. It’s home to the Museum of Islamic Art, designed by I.M. Pei with inspiration from traditional Islamic architecture, which houses Islamic art from three different continents that havea history of over 1,400 years.2 Abu Dhabi, United Arab EmiratesDropping down from the top spot last year is Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, with a safety index of 88.03. While it has a population of just over 1 million, only 420,000 are actually citizens-whose average net worth is $17 million dollars. It is also home to the Sheikh Zzyed Mosque, the country’s largest, as well as many camel races.3 Quebec City, CanadaQuebec City is one of the few cities in North America that still has its original city walls. One of the most romantic cities on the planet, its Old Town was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and as a city with just over 700,000 residents, it’s got a safety index of 85.36, landing it in the top three.4 Osaka, JapanOsaka is the best city in Japan for food, drinks, and nightlife, and it’s safer than ever. Make sure you visit Osaka Castle while you’re here, which has a park attached, or the nearby Momofuku Ando Instant Ramen Museum, where you can even customize(定制)your own Cup Noodles to take home.21.

We didn’t do anything to offend her and she didn’t know us but that didn’t matter, she still didn’t like us.As new teacher in the Emirati school, we Westerners greeted her every day. She ignored us. She came into our rooms and bypassed us as she shook hands with all the non Westerners. Whenever we saw her, she avoided eye contact with us. Eventually, we stopped trying to befriend her.I won’t say her nationality but her friends had been fired from the school, we had been employed in their places and that was enough for her to have nothing to do with us.Well after 16 months in the school we had a secret friend gifting. To my surprise, I drew her name from the glass jar and that meant she was my secret friend. My role was to buy her a gift and say something about her when we publicly acknowledged who our secret friend was.I decided to gift her a coloured bangle(手镯). I added a postcard and wrote “Love and Blessings, Rose-Marie.”Then came the day. We all gathered in the meeting room. When you received your gift, you said a few kind words about your secret friend and passed the gift to them. What could I say? Everyone knew she didn’t like the Westerners. She taught music in the school so I said”My secret friend is someone who brings music to our ears every day.”She came forward with a huge warm smile. She hugged me and kissed me on both cheeks and accepted my gifts.Since then, she smiles often. We hug and shake hands when we meet. I have seen her wear my gift several times and I am so pleased.24. Why didn't Cala like the Western teacher?A. They stopped befriending her.B. They were new comers.C. They replaced her friends' position.D. They had once offended her.25.

A good act will be well rewarded.C. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.D. Without confidence there is no friendship.CThe BBC has made its second annual report known since its new charter was established andthe broadcaster paints a rather bleak(暗淡的)picture for itself. It highlights the fact that the media landscape(局面)has changed quite rapidly in recent years and will most certainly continue to do so, and it says that the industry is “more and more dominated by a small number of US-based media giants with extraordinary creative and financial firepower.”The BBC added, “Their business models and huge budgets mean we are increasingly being squeezed out of an ever more competitive environ ment. British creativity and British content are now under real threat.”However, the broadcaster is determined to do all it can to survive in the ever more digital TV world increasingly controlled by companies like Netflix and Amazon. In that regard, it laid out a few goals for the year that are aimed at keeping the BBC competitive. One focus will be its iPlayer platform. It notes that younger audiences are more frequently choosing Netflix over the BBC and it’s, therefore ,making some cha nges to iPlayer that will hopefully make it a destination itself rather than just a way to catch up on shows viewers have missed. The BBC has already started to introduce personalization into its iPlayer content and going forward, it will work to strengthen the user experience, boost(促进)personalization and add more live content.But most importantly, the issue comes down to money. “The cost of sports broadcasting rights has skyrocketed while, overall, the cost of ideas and talent has risen fast.”Te broadc aster concludes that is has shrunk while the market has continued grow.“In this context, the BBC’s urgent challenge is to develop new ways to grow our income so that we can keep pace with the market around us, as well as successfully safeguard British cont ent and Britain’s creative track record.”it said.28. What situation is the BBC in?A. It faces severe competition.B. Its business budgets are huge.C. It provides bleak pictures.D. Its creativity has been lost.29. Which of the following can replace the word "dominated" underlined in Paragraph 1?A. Considered.B. Chosen.C. Controlled.D. Improved.30. What's the key measure the BBC has taken to survive?A. Catching up on programmes.B. Improving its iPlayer platformC. Sharing its iPlayer content.D. Reducing live shows.31. What can we infer from the last paragraph about the BBC?A. It tries to develop while keeping its own style.B. It intends to rise the cost of broadcasting rights.C. Its challenge is to safeguard the market around.D. Its ideas of cost and talent have changed rapidly.DYou see your phone light up from the corner of your eye and quickly reach for it. What started as a simple notification(通知)check snowballs into an hour-long period as you look through rows of notifications and endless social media feeds.This is by design. Tech companies such as Google and Facebook have spent years working to make consumer technology as addictive as possible. After all, time spent with their products could equal big profits for the company.However, that’s starting to change. Apple takes action with the introduction of tools in its new operating system aimed at informing users to better manage their smartphone usage and parental controls that allow parents to better monitor and control their children’s phone time.Google also offers a “Wind Down”feature to set at bedtime, which automatically puts the phone into“Do Not Disturb”.No no tifications will show up on your phone, and losing all color on-screen is certainly a cause to put your phone away.There are still no clear guidelines on what causes tech addiction, but it’s a growing concern likely on the minds of parents everywhere as they see their kids’ faces constantly g lued inches away from a sc reen. And everywhere you go, you’re all but guaranteed to see pe ople buried in their phones.Apart from Apple and Google, Facebook deserves a fair amount of blame, as CEO Mark Zuckerberg acknowledged in a blog post earlier this year. The social network announced plans to roll out changes aimed at making interactions more meaningful.“By making these changes, I expect the time people spend on Facebook will go down,”Zuckerberg said. “But I also expect the time you do spend on Facebook will be more valuable. And if we do the right thing, I believe that will be good for our community and our business over the long term too.”32. What has been done to change phone addiction?A. Making some color disappear on screen.B. Offering functions to reduce phone use.C. Improving consumer technology.D. Stopping sending messages.33. What does "the social network" underlined in the Paragraph 6 refer to?A. Google. B Apple. C. A blog post. D. Facebook.34. What does Zuckeberg mean in the last paragraph?A. Facebook in expecting fewer people to use it.B. It’s valuable for people to do the right thing on Facebook.G. People should spend time on Facebook as little as possible.D. Facebook and its consumers will have a win-win relationship.35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Fighting against Screen AddictionB. Making Tech Addiction by DesignC. Controlling Children's Phone TimeD. Letting Phone Interactions Meaningful第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
福建省福州市2021届高中毕业班3月质量检测(一模)英语试题(word有答案)

考试用时120分钟。
)第二部分阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
AThe new year always brings predictions. You know who gets them right?BLUETOOTHIn his futuristic 1953 novel Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury anticipated Bluetooth, describing wireless earphones that allowed for "an electronic ocean of sound, of music and talk" to be transferred through the air. Imagine how thrilled he would have been with a Bluetooth toaster! That was the idea behind Griffin's Connected Toaster, which warned you via smartphone when your toast was done. At $ 100, this baby cost a lot of bread, which may be why it was discontinued just two years after launch.SMART WATCHThe Apple Watch lets you chat, play games, and watch videos on a device fastened to your wrist. Cool, huh? The Jetsons thought so… in 1962 —when Steve Jobs was still in second grade!WI-FINikola Tesla called it! In 1909, the famous electrical engineer told the New York Times, "It will soon be possible to send wireless messages all over the world so simply that any individual can carry and operate his own equipment." No doubt he was thinking of the Kérastase Hair Coach brush, which measured brushing speed and employed a micro-phone to listen to your hair, all to compute an overall hair-quality score sent to your smartphone. ( Alas, it too is gone.)GPSWriter Arthur C. Clarke (2001: A Space Odyssey) saw a world in which no one got lost. In 1956,he wrote that satellites “could make possible a position-finding grid(铁网)whereby anyone could locate himself by means of a couple of dials on an instrument about the size of a watch.” Clarke didn't mention that his system might also track another person, such as a criminal. Last year, the New York City police arrested a robber who was wearing a GPS ankle monitor — because he was still on probation(缓刑)for a prior crime.21. Which of the predictions is the earliest?A. BLUETOOTH.B. SMART W ATCH.C. WI-FI.D. GPS.22. Why did Griffin's Connected Toaster disappear?A. Too expensive.B. Out of date.C. A little awkwardD. Energy-consuming.23. What was Clarice’s prediction?A. A GPS ankle monitor.B. A robber-arresting instrument.C. A watch that could see the world.D. An instrument that could locate a person.BI never thought I'd hear myself say it, but I've grown to enjoy lifting weights,and I've learned from doing it. I enjoy the sense of strength and discipline that comes when the muscles are forced to resist. I've tried varying schedules — lifting every day, every other day, two days on and a day off. The every day approach was the least effective. I get the best strengthening results when I give myself a break.The same is true with mind and spirit. Without giving yourself a chance to reenergize, you begin to break down all the connective fibers of your life. I used to just give myself Sundays off. Now I'm scheduling downtime in the midst of everything — and “everything” includes two magazines, building a house in Hawaii, working on an ABC movie — and, oh yeah, my day job. Keeping it all straight was beginning to feel a little stressful. So I told myself that just because I have ten free minutes on my calendar doesn't mean I want to fill them. Breathing spacehas to become part of my daily routine.So instead of having people lined up outside my office after the first show — I tape two a day —I do nothing for at least ten minutes. The change has worked wonders. I have more energy, and I'm in a better mood for the second show and all the business that comes afterward.Now that I have the summer off to sit under the trees reading, napping, writing, and thinking , I know for sure it’s time well spent. I’m refilling my tank so that by fall, when the new season begins, I'll be fired up and ready for whatever is to come. Fully restored.24. What is the function of the first paragraph?A. To arouse the readers' concern.B. To summarize the whole passage.C. To state the importance of a good lifestyle.D. To introduce the theme of the whole passage.25. Which of the following does the author agree with?A. Keeping everything straight.B. Resting at any time.C. Taking breaks between tasks.D. Having a full schedule.26. What does the underlined “it” in Para.2 refer to?A. Everything.B. Building a house.C. My day job.D. Working on a movie.27. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Lifting weights changes peopled life.B. A little restoration helps go a long way.C. Why people need to be in high spirits.D. Ten minutes' break will work wonders.CThe Maya city of Tikal is famous for its amazing palaces and temples. But something far more ordinary kept Tikal functioning: its water-purifying(净化)system,the earliest known of its kind.Researchers recently discovered a volcanic mineral that traps microbes (微生物)and heavy metals in Tikal's largest reservoir (水库). Because the material is not found nearby, the finding suggests the presence of a man-made water-purifying device.The finding denies the long-standing idea that the ancient worlds technological achievements belonged to the Eastern world, like Egypt, and China. The leading scientist of this research, Kenneth Tankersley says, "When talking about purifying water, the Maya were thousands of years ahead.”Located in the forests of Central America, Tikal, is thought to have been home to more than 45,000 people. They had to struggle against a dry season lasting from November through April. Storing water in reservoirs was a solution, but that water had to be fit to drink, said Kenneth, “ Keeping water clean was of great importance.”A few years ago, the researchers were surprised to find that the largest reservoir, Corriental, had significantly fewer harmful chemicals than the others. " The water quality at Corriental was much higher."Somehow the Maya must have been purifying Corriental's water, the team assumed. "The Maya used gardens as their bathrooms.” Kenneth said, "The water coming into the reservoir would not have been very clean.”At the bottom of Corriental, scientists found four separate layers ( 层) , each a few centimeters thick,of millimeter-scale zeolites(沸石).” This type of volcanic mineral can purify water and is still in widespread use today, Kenneth says, "Just about everything we drink, from bottled water to wine, runs through a zeolite purifying device."The Maya wouldn't have known about the zeolite in rock, but they would have recognized the purifying effects, the researchers suggest. A zeolite-rich rock formation about 30 kilometers northeast of Tikal is the likely source of the material in Corriental reservoir, the team said last month in Scientific Reports. Water at this site "was clear and tasted good."28.What did the researchers find?A. A new material called zeolites.B. The purifying effects of zeolites.C. An old water-purifying system.D. High-quality water in Corriental.29.How did the Maya purify water?A. By building the largest reservoir.B. By using gardens as their bathrooms.C. By getting rid of heavy metals.D. By spreading four layers of zeolites.30.What can we learn from the research?A. The Maya drank bottled water.B. The ancient Maya were very bright.C. The system was created by accident.D. The zeolites were found in Corriental.31.According to Kenneth, .A. the original water in Corriental was not clean enoughB. water supply in Tikal lasted from November to AprilC. all ancient technological achievements belonged to the EastD. the Maya had a good understanding of the zeolite in rocksDCan a fish be depressed? This question has been on my head ever since I spent a night in a hotel across from a sad-looking fish. His name was Bruce Lee.The pleasant woman at the front desk assured me that he was well taken care of. Was I incorrectly assuming his laziness was a sign of being upset?When I sought answers from scientists, I assumed that they would find the question ridiculous. But they did not. New research has been totally shifting the way that scientists think about fish cognition (认知),building a case that pet and owner are not nearly as different as many assume. The neurochemistry (神经化学)is so similar that it’s scary, said Julian Pittman,a professor. We tend to think of them as simple living things, but there is a lot we don't give fish credit for.Dr. Pittman likes working with fish, in part, because they are so obvious about their depression. A zebrafish gets dropped in a new tank. If after five minutes it is hanging out in the lower half, it’s depressed. If it’s swimming up top, then it’s not.Is depression the right word? There's the obvious issue that we cannot ask animals how they feel, says Dr. Diego A. Pizzagali . Neither fish nor rats can catch the entire range of depression as we know it.There is a heated debate about whether anxious or depressed is a more appropriate term. But what has convinced Dr. Pittman, and others, over the past ten years is watching the way the zebrafish lose interest in just about everything :food, toys, exploration, just like clinically depressed people who are withdrawn. The same is true of fish.One of the things we're finding is that fish are naturally curious and seek novel things out, said Dr. Braithwaite. In other words, your goldfish is probably bored. To help get rid of depression, she urges introducing new objects to the tank or switching up the location of items.32. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Fish are considered simple living things.B. Pet and owner are always assumed the same.C. Scientists have learnt a lot about fish cognition.D. Fish and human beings have something in common.33. What does the underlined word “withdrawn” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?A. Quiet and shy.B. Happy and excited.C. Interested and careful.D. Disappointed and surprised.34. Why can fish become bored according to the text?A. They need oxygen from the air.B. They are not born to be curious.C. They lack new things to explore.D. They can’t locate the positions of items.35. What might be the best title for the text?A. Fish Depression Is not a Joke.B. Fish Can Be a Boring Pet.C. Fish Need Better Care More.D. Fish Cognition Does not Exist.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下列短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
