Animals that live in groups-like foxes, chimpanzees(大猩猩), and elephants-follow rules. They have to follow rules to get along and to survive(生存). However, animals can act nicely, even when they dont have to. Here are some surprising stories about animal behavior. Most people usually walk away when someone is unkind to them. Marc Bekoff, a researcher at the University of Colorado, saw a female(母的)red fox do just that. The female fox was unhappy because a male(公的)fox played roughly(粗鲁地)with her. When she walked away, the male fox showed her that he wanted to play nicely. He lowered his head and rolled on his back. The female fox gave him another chance, and this time, he played more gently. Geza Teleki is a scientist who studies chimpanzees in Tanzania. One day, Teleki hiked far away from his campsite. He didnt have any food. Teleki wanted some fruit from a tree, but the tree was too tall. A young chimpanzee watched him curiously as he tried to get something to eat. The chimpanzee climbed the tree, picked the fruit, and gave it to him! An elephant in Kenya hurt his trunk(象鼻子). He needed help because he couldnt put food into his mouth. Researcher Kayhan Ostovar watched silently. He saw the hurt elephant show his sore trunk to a healthy elephant. The healthy elephant didnt need any more information. He took a bush and put it carefully into his new friends mouth. Hippos(河马)and crocodiles are usually good friends. They hang out together in rivers. But Karen Paolillo, a wildlife expert in Zimbabwe, saw something surprising. One day, a crocodile tried to eat a monkey that was next to a river. A hippo ran quickly to the crocodile and chased it away. Why did the hippo attack(攻击)the crocodile? Paolillo says hippos sometimes protect other animals from crocodiles. （1）The main idea of the passage is . A . animals that live in groups follow rulesB . some animals can be nice to other animalsC . most animals are nice to people（2）The underlined phrase do just that means .

The scooter balances by itself with one or two wheels（轮子）. Some of them also have a handle（手柄）. Riders lean forward to make the scooter go faster. It also can stop if the rider shifts their weight backwards.However, starting from the end of August, people can no longer ride electric scooters on public roads. It is in the interests of traffic safety, according to Beijings traffic authorities（官方）. There will be a 10 yuan fine（罚款）for those who ride scooters on the road. This follows Shanghais decision to get scooters off the road last month.The one-wheeled scooters can go as fast as 30km an hour and they dont have brakes（刹车系统）, a traffic policeman told Beijing Youth Daily. Two-wheeled scooters can even go as fast as cars at 60km an hour. But their brakes cannot compete with that of a car. Its very easy for scooters to run into cars or buses or hurt people on roads.But this doesnt mean that scooters are only dangerous on public roads. People who ride them in doors or in their living places should also be careful, according to the Beijing Consumer Association.There are still no national safety standards for electric scooters and some of them are very dangerous.The association tested more than 20 electric scooters from different companies and found that most had safety problems. Nineteen scooters couldnt come to a full stop in less than 4 meters. This could be very dangerous.（1）How can riders stop the scooters while driving them? A . They use the handle to stop.B . They put more weight forward.C . They shift their body weight backwards.D . They use brakes to stop.（2）Why cant the scooters go on the road in Beijing? A . Because the authorities are not interested in scooters.B . Because scooters may bring traffic problems.C . Because people in Beijing are not used to driving scooters.D . Because the authorities want to compete with Shanghais decision.（3）Which of the following is TRUE about scooters? A . There can be either one wheel or two on scooters.B . The one-wheeled scooters can even go faster than cars.C . The two-wheeled scooters have the same brakes as cars.D . Scooters are not dangerous if people use them indoors.（4）Whats the result of the Associations test? A . Scooter companies wouldnt follow the national safety standards.B . Most companies that make scooters have safety problems.C . Scooters cant come to a complete stop by themselves.D . About 95 percent of scooters have problems stopping.四、 词汇运用 (共2题；共10分)13. （5分）根据括号内所给词的适当形式填空（1）That policeman is _kind.(real)（2）That dog _yesterday. (die)（3）Im sorry.
