Streams and pools dry up. Then the many animals that live in the mountains need to find new sources of water. The state of Arizona has built an artificial water hole in the desert below the mountains. During the dry months, hundreds of animals come there to drink. At the water hole, there is always a group of thirsty animals. When a herd of deer arrive at the water hole, they are not always polite. There may not be room at the waters edge for them all. Then a thirsty doe (雌鹿) will push her own fawn aside. And male deer may battle with females for a place beside the water. They slash at one another with their front hoofs (蹄). Bands of wild pigs called peccaries (野猪类) also visit the water hole. The peccaries are dangerous animals that can cause deep wounds with their razor-sharp tusks (长牙) and hoofs. When they arrive, the deer rush away. When a band of peccaries comes to drink, the females bring their newborn with them. Each pair of newborn twins walks beneath the belly (腹部) of its mother. The peccary babies are quite tiny. But they are not afraid of the fierce adults. The young animals expect to drink first. If an adult gets in their way, they squeal (发出长而尖锐的声音) loudly and bite at the older animals legs. Even old males who have fought many battles hurry to get out of their way.1.During the dry season in Arizonas foothills, there is _.A. little rain B. much wind C. little sun D. little snow2.

Many British people dont think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres, cinemas and concerts you can put on whatever you like from elegant (端庄的) suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy. But in Britain, as well as the USA, men in offices usually wear suits and ties. Women wear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors, lawyers and business people wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women wear smart dresses. In many ways, Americans are more relaxed than British people, but they are more careful with their clothes. At home or on holiday, most Americans wear informal or sports clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look elegant. In good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes and smart hairstyles. It is difficult to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the USA, because everyone is different. If you axe not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then do the same. Youll feel more relaxed if you dont look too different from anyone else.6. This passage mainly tells us _.
