听力原文： Cats have been popular pets for thousands of years. The ancient Egyptians are thought to have been the first to keep cats in their homes. Today, people like cats for many reasons. Cats are easy to care for. They are soft and beautiful and they can catch mice!

A cat is a natural hunter. It has a good sense of hearing. Its sense of smell is well developed, too. Its eyes can detect the smallest movements. With its powerful legs it can run after its prey and jump to catch it.

A pet cat that is fed every day does net need to hunt for food. But it may go after a mouse anyway. This is because hunting is an instinct in cats. They are born with this ability.

Cats have other instincts as well. They purr when they are happy. They arch their backs and puff up their fur when they are afraid. Cats also scratch objects with their front claws. Some people think cats scratch to sharpen their claws. Others think this action helps exercise their legs and feet. Both reasons may be true.

There are many breeds of cats. Some have long hair, others have short hair. Their coats can have different colors and patterns. Cats have different personalities, too. Some use their voices a lot. Others are silent. Some are shy, while others are friendly. Many people enjoy having these animals as companions.

听力原文：Most dogs can be taught to tolerate cats if their owners are willing to be patien

听力原文： Most dogs can be taught to tolerate cats if their owners are willing to be patient and consistent. Some dogs take longer to train than others and the difference is usually due to the dog's level of "prey drive".

Nature designed the predators to chase and catch smaller animals for food. Although dogs have been domesticated for thousands of years, they still act upon the instincts nature gave them. Through generations of selective breeding, people have modified these instincts. By decreasing the effects of some and enhancing the effects of others, we've been able to develop a wide variety of different breeds of dogs, each meant to serve a different purpose or perform. a certain function.

A dog's instinct to chase and catch something is called his prey drive. Throw a stuffed toy to a puppy and watch his prey drive in action as he chases it, catches it, and then shakes it to pieces. Breeds and individual dogs vary in the intensity of their prey drives. Some breeds are created specifically for killing other animals. Most terriers, for example, are intended to kill rats and they have very high prey drives.

In other breeds, the prey drive can be altered to suit an entirely different purpose. Therefore, there must be effective ways to train a dog with a high prey drive to live peacefully with cats and other small pets. For example, by giving the dog extra attention and even special treats when the cat is in the room, the dog soon learns that having the cat around means very good things are going to happen to him! He will be happy to get along with the cat harmoniously and his prey drive will be lowered.

B．Can we make peace between dogs and cats and how？

C．The mystery of animal’s prey drive.

听力原文：Recent research has claimed that an excess of positive ions in the air can have a

听力原文： Recent research has claimed that an excess of positive ions in the air can have an ill-effect on people's physical or psychological health. What are positive ions？ Well, the air is full of ions, electrically charged particles, and generally there is a rough balance between the positive and the negative charges. But sometimes this balance becomes disturbed and a larger proportion of positive ions are found. This happens naturally before thunderstorms, earthquakes or when winds are blowing in certain countries. Or it can be caused by a build-up of static electricity indoors from carpets or clothing made of man-made fibers, or from TV sets, duplicators or computer display screens.

When a large number of positive ions are present in the air many people experience unpleasant effects such as headaches, fatigue, irritability, and some particularly sensitive people suffer nausea or even mental disturbance. Animals are also found to be affected, particularly before earthquakes; snakes have been observed to come out of hibernation, rats to flee from their burrows, dogs howl and cats jump about unaccountably. This has led the US Geographical Survey to fund a network of volunteers to watch animals in an effort to foresee such disasters before they hit vulnerable areas such as California.

Conversely, when large numbers of negative ions are present, people have a feeling of well-being. Natural conditions that produce these large amounts are near the sea, close to waterfalls or fountains, or in any place where water is sprayed, or forms a spray. This probably accounts for the beneficial effect of a holiday by the sea, or in the mountains with tumbling streams or waterfalls.

B．They feel rather bad-tempered.

听力原文：Cats never fail to fascinate human beings. They can be friendly and affectionate

听力原文： Cats never fail to fascinate human beings. They can be friendly and affectionate towards humans, but they lead mysterious lives of their own as well. They never become submissive like dogs and horses. As a result, humans have learned to respect their independence. Most cats remain suspicious of humans all their lives. One thing that fascinates us most about cats is the popular belief that they have nine lives. Apparently, there is a good deal of truth in this idea. A cat's ability to survive falls is based on fact.

Recently the New York Animal Medical Centre made a study of 132 cats over a period of five months. All these cats had one experience in common: they had fallen off high buildings, yet only eight of them died from shock of injuries. Of course, New York is the ideal place for such an interesting study, because there is no shortage of tall buildings. There are plenty of high-rise windowsills to fall from! One cat, Sabrina, fell 32 stories, yet only suffered from a broken tooth. "Cats behave like well-trained paratroopers," a doctor said. It seems that the further cats fall, the less they are likely to injure themselves. In a long drop, they reach speeds of 60 miles an hour and more. At high speeds, falling cats have time to relax. They stretch out their legs like flying squirrels. This increases their air-resistance and reduces the shock of impact when they hit the ground.

(33)

A．Because cats always fascinate human beings.

B．Because cats are friendly and affectionate towards humans.

C．Because there is a popular belief that cats have nine lives.

D．Because cats lead their own lives and seldom become obedient like dogs are.

听力原文： Cats are creatures of habit.They like to go to sleep about the same time everyda

听力原文： Cats are creatures of habit. They like to go to sleep about the same time everyday and for a certain length of time. They seem to have a natural clock inside them that tells them when to sleep.

Cats supplement their regular sleep with occasional catnaps. Some experts feel that humans could also benefit from this habit. Catnaps help to build up energy in the body. They are also a good way to overcome boredom. Since cats have moods similar to those of humans, some experts believe that people can improve their moods and attitudes by catnapping. People might become happier.

A number of famous people have copied cats by taking catnaps during the day. The naps would usually last from 15 to 30 minutes. Winston Churchill took catnaps. So did President Harry Truman, John Kennedy and so on. These famous people were known for their energy. They were also able to work long hours, often late into the night. And napping was their secret. Perhaps more people could learn from cats and take naps to feel better and live longer.

The passage tells us that cats ______.

A．sleep longer than humans

B．have similar sleeping habits as humans

C．have no regular sleep

D．take naps besides their regular sleep
