animals cant talk, but can they lie in other ways? can they lie with their bodies and behavior? animal experts may not call it lying, but they do agree that many animals, from birds to chimpanzees, behave dishonestly to fool other animals. why? dishonesty often helps them survive.many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. for example, a bird called the plover sometimes pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young. when a predator（猎食动物）gets close to its nest, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. how? it pretends to have a broken wing. the predator follows the hurt adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest. another kind of bird, the scrub jay, buries its food so it always has something to eat. scrub jays are also thieves. they watch where others bury their food and steal it. but clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them. so they go back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else.birds called cuckoos have found a way to have babies without doing much work. how? they dont make nests（鸟巢）. instead, they get into other birds nests secretly. then they lay their eggs and fly away. when the baby birds come out, their adoptive parents feed them. chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky. after a fight, the losing chimp will give its hand to the other. when the winning chimp puts out its hand, too, the chimps are friendly again. but an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winners hand and start fighting again. chimps are sneaky in other ways, too. when chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is natural for them to cry out. then other chimps come running. but some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. that way, other chimps dont hear them, and they dont need to share their food.as children, many of us learn the saying you cant fool mother nature. but maybe you cant trust her, either.4. a plover protects its young from a predator by_.a. getting closer to its young b. driving away the adult predatorc. leaving its young in another nest d. pretending to be injured5. by chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky (paragraph 5), the author means_.a. chimps are ready to attack others b. chimps are sometimes dishonestc. chimps are jealous of the winners d. chimps can be selfish too6. which of the following is true according to the passage?a. some chimps lower their cry to keep food away from others.b. the losing chimp won the fight by taking the winners hand.c. cuckoos fool their adoptive parents by making no nests.d. some clever scrub jays often steal their food back.7. which of the following might be the best title of the passage?a. do animals lie? b. does mother nature fool animals?c. how do animals learn to lie? d. how does honesty help animals survive?【答案】4.d5.b6.a7.a【解析】试题分析:文章通过举了一些鸟类和大猩猩的例子，说明动物有时会撒谎，这也是它们生存的需要。4.d细节理解题。根据第二段的第二句话：a bird called the plover sometimes pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young.可知啄木鸟保护孩子不受猎食动物侵害是通过假装受伤，故选d。5.b细节理解题。根据第五段的最后一个句子：but an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winners hand and start fighting again.一个输了的大猩猩抓住获胜的大猩猩的手又开始打斗了，可知这句话的意思是大猩猩也可能不诚实，故选b。6.a细节理解题。根据文章第六段的句子：but some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. that way, other chimps dont hear them, and they dont need to share their food可知一些大猩猩放低它们的叫声，这样让别的大猩猩得不到食物，故选a。7.a文章标题题。根据全篇文章的内容和第一段第二行的句子，can they lie with their bodies and behavior?可知这篇文章讲的是动物也会撒谎，故选a。考点：考查社会现象类短文阅读cjimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. he has good heart, but always feared applying for a new job. one day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. his appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. while waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre(轮胎） of his car. obviously there was something wrong with the car. jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. when jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. then the old man said, “well, i could take you to the office for your interview. its the least i could do. please. i insist.” jimmy agreed. upon arrival, jimmy found a long line of applications waiting to be interviewed. jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. one by one, the applicants left the interviewers office with disappointed look on their faces. finally his name was called. the interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “do you really need to be interviewed?” jimmys heart sank. “with the way i look now, how could i possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself. then the interviewer turned the chair and to jimmys surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. it turned out he was the general manager of the company. “sorry i had to keep you waiting, but i was pretty sure i made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. i just know youd be a trustworthy worker. congratulations!” jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job. 8. why did jimmy apply for a new job?a. he was out of work b. he was bored with his job c. he wanted a higher positiond. he hoped to find a better boss9. what did jimmy see on the way to the interview?a. a friends car had a flat tyreb. a wild man was pushing a carc. a terrible accident happened d. an old mans car broke down10. why did the old man offer jimmy a ride?a. he was also to be interviewed b. he needed a traveling companionc. he always helped people in needd. he was thankful to jimmy 11. how did jimmy feel on hearing the interviewers question?a. he was sorry for the other applicantsb. there was no hope for him to get the job c. he regretted helping the old man d. the interviewer was very rude 12. a. what can we learn from jimmys experience？a. where there is a will, theres a wayb. a friend in need is a friend indeedc. good is rewarded with good. d. two heads are better than one 【答案】8.a9.d10.d11.b12.c9.d细节理解题。根据第二段话“he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. obviously there was something wrong with the car”说明老人的车抛锚了，具体什么问题，文章未提到，故选d。10.d细节理解题。前文说到在修完车后他回绝了老人修理费；再根据老人所说“its the least i could do. please, i insist”，可知老人是因为感激而主动送他去面试场的，故选d。11.b细节理解题。根据老人的问题“你确实需要面试吗？”及jimmy的所想“with the way i look now, how could i possibly pass this interview”可知，以他当时的状态，他无法通过面试，故选b。12.c推理判断题。jimmy在应聘途中无偿地帮助的老人正是他去面试公司的总经理，而后他被提供了那份工作。从这个故事中我们不难认识到：善有善报（good is rewarded with good）。a项“有志者事竟成”；b项“患难见真情”；d项“三个臭皮匠顶个诸葛亮”，故选c。考点：考查故事类短文阅读d low-cost gifts for mothers daygift no. ioffer to be your mothers health friend. promise to be there for any and all doctors visitswhether a disease or a regular medical check-up. most mothers always say no need, another set of eyes and ears is always a good idea at a doctors visit. the best part ?
