【題目】Many people believe that language belongs to human beings. However, cats have developed a language not for each other, but for the human beings who have them as pets.

When communicating with each other, cats “talk” with a system of signals. Their tails, rather than any kind of “speech”, act as an important way to express themselves. They also touch each other to express s their feelings. With other cats, they will use their voices only to express pain. Unbelievable, all of that changes when a human walks into the room. Cats use many different kinds of vocal (聲音的) expressions when they communicate with a person. Since these vocal expressions are not used to communicate with other cats, it seems that cats developed this “l(fā)anguage” to communicate with their human owners.

This fact is shown more clearly when watching rooms that have only one cat and those with several cats. An only cat is usually very vocal, since the only creature(動(dòng)物)around with whom the cat can communicate is its owner. Cats with other cats, though, are much quieter. If they want to have a conversation, they only need go to other cats and communicate in their natural way.

Since cats learned to meow(喵喵叫)for the only purpose of communicating with human owners should take the time to learn what their different meows mean. If an owner knows, to name just a few examples, which meow means the cat is hungry, which means the cat wants to be petted, and which means the cat wants to have a little “conversation”, the relationship between cat and owner will be closer.

【1】If a cat among other cats finds part of its body hurts, it may express its pain with its________.

A. tail

B. eyes

C. voice

D. head

【2】When a human enters a room full of cats, they________.

A. begin to use vocal expressions

B. use their tails to show love

C. stop making any noise an

D. stop communicating with each other

【3】What are cat owners advised to do?

A. Encourage cats to talk with each other.

B. Communicate more with cats.

C. Learn to meow in different ways.

D. Teach cats to understand human language.

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A. Communication among cats

B. pets' different expressions.

C. Advice on keeping pets

D. The language of cats.

【題目】Internet dating has become one of the biggest and most successful business ventures on the Internet. Basically, Internet dating is a way to meet people for either friendship or dating without actually having to meet them in person first.

The first thing to do if you decide to try Internet dating is to build your profile(簡(jiǎn)介) which can include your hobbies, hopes for the future, and so on. A photograph is optional, but many sites claim that a photograph increases the number of people who look at your profile. Many Internet dating sites will charge a one-time registration fee to use their services.

Internet dating makes it possible to meet people from all over the world. You can even narrow the search down to your area by zip code. Another advantage is that you can communicate by email before you meet in person. Thousands of people have met, fallen in love, and married through Internet dating. It is an excellent way for shy people to meet. It is also a way for people with busy lives to connect with others, and an easy way to meet people who share your interests.

Just as in conventional dating and love, there are some pitfalls to be aware of in Internet dating. The person you have been talking to on the net may not be who they say they are. Be very aware that there are some people who misrepresent their appearance or private details, such as marital status, income, and so on, for their own reasons. It would not be the first time that someone has been taken in, and talk shows are full of cheating partners who have been caught dating over the Internet in their spare time. Nevertheless, taking a few simple precautions should help ensure that your Internet dating experience is fun.

【1】Which of the following is a must to make an Internet dating possible?

A. A photo. B. A profile.

C. Registration fee. D. Business experience.

【2】One advantage of Internet dating is that _______.

A. you can avoid a face-to-face meeting in the beginning

B. you're sure to find a partner with the same interests

C. you'll find absolutely reliable information of others

D. you'll gain fame and money overnight

【3】The underlined word "pitfalls" in Paragraph 4 most probably means ________.

A. rules B. trends

C. problems D. skills

【4】What is probably talked about following the last paragraph?

A. Conventional dating. B. Hidden advantages.

C. Safety measures. D. Romantic love.
