Animals, including insects, don’t have a ‘language’ like ours. They do not ‘talk’ to each other in words and sentences. But if we watch them, we can see that they do have their ways of communicating (交流) with each other.

Can you see the rabbit’s tail? When rabbits see this white tail moving up and down, they run away. They know that they are in danger. The rabbit has told them something without making a sound. It has given them a signal.

Many other animals use this kind of ‘language’. When a cobra(眼鏡蛇)is angry, it raises its head and makes itself look powerful(有力的). This warns other animals. When a bee(蜜蜂)has found food, it goes back to its home. It cannot ‘tell’ the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance. This tells the bees where the food is.

Some animals ‘say’ things by making sounds. A dog barks, for example, when a stranger comes near. A cat purrs when it is pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning. Sometimes we human beings speak in the same way. We make sounds like “Oh” or “Ah” when we are frightened or pleased or when we drop something on our toes.

1.Which one is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Animals have languages like human beings.

B.Bees communicate with each other by dancing.

C.Animals can use words.                                                 D.Animals are brave.

2.A rabbit uses its tail to ___________.

A.warn other rabbits when they are in danger   B.tell other rabbits where food is

C.make itself look powerful                 D.help it to run fast

3.When a cobra is angry, it __________.

A.makes a loud noise                      B.raises its head

C.moves up and down                     D.does a little dance

4.Several different sounds can be made by a __________.

A.rabbit            B.bee              C.bird              D.fish

5.From the passage, we know that ________ use words and sentences to express ideas and thoughts.

A.a(chǎn)ll living things      B.a(chǎn)ll animals         C.some birds        D.human beings

1.根據(jù)When a bee(蜜蜂)has found food, it goes back to its home. It cannot ‘tell’ the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance. This tells the bees where the food is. 描述,可知選項B描述錯誤。

3.根據(jù)When a cobra(眼鏡蛇)is angry, it raises its head and makes itself look powerful(有力的).描述,可知選B。

4.根據(jù)最后一段Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning. 描述,可知選C。

5.根據(jù)第一段Animals, including insects, don’t have a ‘language’ like ours. They do not ‘talk’ to each other in words and sentences. 描述,可知人類通過單詞和句子來表達意見和想法。故選D。

考點:關(guān)于動物交際問題的說明文閱讀

點評:本文淺顯易懂,層次分明,學(xué)生很容易把握文章中心內(nèi)容。答題中注意帶著問題閱讀短文,一般就能順利找出答題依據(jù)。對于不能直接找到根據(jù)的問題注意聯(lián)系上下文,根據(jù)短文中心總結(jié)出正確答案。
