Passage 1
在弱肉強(qiáng)食的動(dòng)物世界里，一種動(dòng)物能夠生存下來(lái)是很不容易的。除了要時(shí)刻提防天敵的襲擊，它們還要學(xué)會(huì)抵御自然界的嚴(yán)寒和酷熱。不過(guò)，說(shuō)起動(dòng)物們過(guò)冬的本領(lǐng)來(lái)，卻是各有各的高招，而且好像是無(wú)師自通。現(xiàn)在就讓我們一起來(lái)看看文中這些動(dòng)物都是用什么高招來(lái)越冬的吧！
Animals live a hard life both in winter and in summer. In summer the hot sun burns their skin，and in winter they suffer from cold and hunger.
In many places around the world，it is usually very cold in winter. How do the animals keep themselves warm？
Moving from one place to another is a very good way. In autumn，we can see some birds fly a long way from the North to the South for the coming winter. They know when winter comes and where they should go to keep warm，just like man.
Some animals can dig out deep holes in the earth，and then make themselves comfortable and warm with grass，leaves and fur. In the holes they also keep much food for the long winter.
In the coldest places，for example，the Arctic Regions，the polar bear passes a long winter in a deep hole. He sleeps for many months until the weather becomes warmer. Of course，he sleeps in the hole covered with thick snow and ice. A polar bear usually eats as much as he can before his long winter sleep.
Notes：
1. leaf n. 樹葉 2. fur n. 動(dòng)物皮毛
3. the Arctic Regions北極地區(qū) 4. polar bear北極熊
用文中的介詞或副詞填空。
1. Moving______ one place to another is one of the ways for animals to live through the winter.
2. It is a long______ from my home to our school.
3. The boy dug______ a deep hole in the earth.
4. Some animals are clever enough to keep much food______ the long winter.
5. In some cold northern areas，the ground is often covered______ snow.

Passage 2
勇猛、能干的牧羊犬似乎已成為遙遠(yuǎn)的過(guò)去，而飼養(yǎng)乖巧、可愛的寵物狗已逐漸成為當(dāng)今都市的風(fēng)尚。你也喜歡養(yǎng)狗嗎？你想了解更多有關(guān)狗的故事嗎？請(qǐng)看“The Friend of Man（人類的朋友）”。
Once upon a time，a man met a dog and wanted it to help him in the fight against other animals. He took the dog home and kept it as a friend. Later people used dogs for the hunting of other animals. So dogs were used to drive sheep to some places and they were also used to look after chickens.
But now people in towns and cities do not need dogs to fight against other animals. Of course people still keep them to frighten thieves，but the most important reason why people in cities keep dogs is that they feel lonely. They want to stay with a lovely animal as a friend.
For a child，a dog is his best friend when he has no friend to play with. For a young wife，a dog is her child when she doesnt have her own children. For old people a dog is also a child when their real children have grown up and left them. Now people do not have to use dogs but they keep them as friends，or as members of the family.
Notes：
1. hunt v. 打獵 2. frighten v. 威嚇 3. lonely adj. 孤獨(dú)的
Comprehension questions：
1. What is the earliest use of dogs in the past？
A. To help people fight against other animals.
B. To help people fight against thieves.
C. To help people drive sheep.
2. What is the most important reason for people to keep dogs now in cities？
A. Because there are many bad people in cities.
B. Because people often feel lonely in cities.
C. Because people like to keep animals at home.
3. What is the use of a dog to a child when he has no friend to play with？
A. A dog is his best friend.
B. A dog is like his child.
C. A dog is like his parent.

Passage 3
多人集體狩獵時(shí)，獵手之間要保持一定的距離和站位，還要約定開槍的暗號(hào)；另外，絕不能開惡作劇式的玩笑，否則槍響之后，倒下來(lái)的可能就是別的獵手，而不是野獸。文中的這位小伙子別出心裁，把“我不是熊”的告示貼在背上，為的是取笑眼力不好的朋友，結(jié)果差一點(diǎn)兒送了性命！ 欲知詳情，請(qǐng)看下文“I Am Not a Bear（我不是熊）”。
Mr Black loved shooting bears，but he was old and his eyesight was not good. Several times he almost shot people instead of bears. So his friends were always very careful when they went out hunting with him.
One day a young friend of his wanted to play a joke on him. He got a big piece of white paper and wrote on it in very big letters “I AM NOT A BEAR”. Then he tied the paper to his back and went off. Seeing the words，his friends laughed a lot.
But this piece of paper did not keep him safe. After a while Mr Black shot at him and knocked his hat off.
The young man was very frightened and angry. He shouted to Mr Black，“Didnt you see this piece of paper on my back？”
“Yes，I did，” said Mr Black. Then he went nearer and looked carefully at the letters on the paper and said，“Oh，I am very sorry. I didnt see the word NOT.”
Notes：
