浙江省苍南县2016高考英语阅读理解专题选练（9）【科普知识型-阅读理解(一)】 its a common belief that over time, pet owners start to look like their animals, and vice versa. now comes the terrifying news that cats look up to their owners as role models and copy their behaviour.next time you reach for your fridge, think twice. if your kitty is watching, she is likely to overeat as well.what is your cats iq?in a new study from the university of messina, it turns out that indoor cats who live closely to their owners “mirror” the lives of their caregivers. they sleep at the same time, eat at the same time, and can even become more or less social depending on the behaviour of their owners.“cats are intelligent animals with a long memory, ”jane brunt, the executive director of the catalyst council, told discovery news. “they watch and learn from us, noting the patterns of our actions, knowing where their food is kept and what time to expect to be fed, how to open the cupboard door thats been improperly closed, and where their feeding and toileting areas are.”because cats copy our habits, if you spend a lot of time raiding(搜刮)the fridge, your cat will return to its food bowl for that midnight snack, too. according to the study, this explains why “human and cat overweight rates often seem to match”so, if you feel guilty about leaving your precious kitty at home while you go to work, now you can feel even worse：you are making your cat fat!theres no word if drinking green tea and making sure you go to yoga will benefit your cat, but based on the study, it sounds like sticking to a healthy eating and sleeping schedule is best for both of you.theres a lot we can learn from our cats in return. “when they sit on our laps softly purring with rhythmic breathing and halfclosed eyes, the sense of peace and calm that comes over us is like a private lesson in inner meditation，”brunt said. sure. but cats dont have to sit in rush hour traffic for an hour a day or worry about their inlaws. theyre probably pretty good at remaining calm.so, according to science, even though we assume that cats are not close to us all these years, it turns out they are in fact learning from us and looking up to us. scary, huh?1according to the passage, which of the following is not true?acats can copy humans schedule.bhumans can learn from cats in some way.ccats are smart and have a long memory.dgreen tea and yoga can benefit cats.2what does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 5 refer to?ahumans keeping searching the fridge.bcats going to their owners for food.ccats copying humans habit of looking for food.dhumans leaving cats home while working.3what can we learn from our cats?ato remain calm. bto be able to copy.cto stay proud. dto look up to friends.4the best title for the passage could be “_”ayour cat can bring you pleasure byou are copying your catcyou can make your cat social dyour cat is copying your habit【要点综述】本文是一篇有关养宠物猫的科普文章。宠物猫和主人待的时间长了会模仿主人的习惯，而人也能从猫身上学习一些好的习惯。1d推理判断题。根据文章的“theres no word if drinking green tea and making sure you go to yoga will benefit your

school, mc gehee said.it is also believed that removing lockers could help prevent school violence. ”lockers give kids a place to hide things”, said mike nelson, founder of a safety- training group. nelson believes that some school shootings and other incidents could have been prevented if there had been no lockers.however, andrew booth, a 10th-grader at gemantown high, said there are some disadvantages of not having a locker. “ it can make your book bag really heavy”, he said . the 16-year-old has four textbooks “plus notebooks and a binder(活页夹)” to carry to school each day.he said some teachers have shelves at the back of the classroom on which students can leave their bags. others provide an extra set of textbooks in the classroom, so students dont have to carry books from
