第四节 阅读理解 (共20小题;每小题2分, 满分40分 )

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

A

We think we know pandas. They are the endangered animals that live in the forests of China. They spend their days chewing bamboo. They don’t reproduce very often. But did you know that pandas quite like meat? Did you know they can climb trees and swim? Pandas are actually a lot more mysterious than people think, researchers say. Let’s find out some more about them.

1. Pandas eat meat

While ninety-nine percent of the panda’s diet is bamboo, it also eats rice, carrots, apples and sweet potatoes. Pandas sometimes eat rodents (啮齿动物), deer, insects, honey, egg and fish. In 2009, scientists studied the panda genome (基因组). They found a gene that means pandas probably can’t taste flesh. But they also found genes for digesting (消化) meat. This may explain why they don’t seek meat out that often. However, when the opportunity presents itself, pandas will happily eat meat.

2. Pandas climb and swim

Pandas are good climbers. Even panda cubs (幼兽) can climb trees. They can also swim, though they spend most of their time on land. Pandas don’t often show these two abilities. Instead, they spend most of their time resting and eating. Unlike other bear species, pandas do not hibernate (冬眠) during the winter months.

3. Pandas attack

Pandas are a passive animal. When they are frightened, they will try to escape an area immediately or they will climb the nearest tree. But when they are provoked (激怒) they can become violent, lowering their heads and staring at their opponents (对手). They may use their paws (手掌) and mouths to attack.

4. Pandas locate each other by smell

Pandas have an unusual breeding (繁殖) system. Females are fertile (可以繁殖的) for just one or two days a year. This means it’s difficult for a female panda to become pregnant(怀孕). Yet during this important period, males and females show a great talent for finding each other, so much that females appear to get pregnant in the wild at almost every opportunity. Researchers have found that this success comes down to their sense of smell. Pandas leave “scent posts” (气味布告) throughout the forest by urinating (小便) on trees. Those posts give information about their owners, including their identity, sex and age. When other pandas pass they can get an idea of which other of their species have been the same way.

66. Which of the following statements is NOT CORRECT about pandas according to the article?

A. Pandas never eat meat.

B. Baby pandas know how to swim.

C. Pandas are still endangered animals.

D. Bamboo makes up of most of pandas’ diet.

67. According to the article, pandas may attack people when they are ______.

A. afraid B. angry C. excited D. hurt

68. According to the article, pandas don’t give birth often because ______.

A. female pandas can only get pregnant on just one or two days in a year

B. male pandas have great difficulty finding female pandas

C. many pandas don’t have the right gene to give birth

D. female pandas don’t like the smell of male pandas

69. What does the article mainly tell us?

A. Why pandas are an endangered species.

B. Efforts by Chinese scientists to save endangered animals.

C. Some interesting facts people don’t know about pandas.

D. A discovery about how pandas give birth.
