He added, "This coronavirus could put you in hospital for weeks, or even kill you. Even if you don't get sick, the choices you make about where you go could be the difference between life and death for someone else." The WHO said, "A part of patients treated in hospital for COVID-19 around the world are aged under 50." New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said many young people are not following the state's social-distancing rules.

24、

If you have ever had a cat, or have watched one of the many funny cat videos online, you'll know that cats have a mind of their own. A lot of the things they do are hard to understand—they like to climb up tall furniture, fit themselves in small spaces and attack(攻击) small objects for no reason at all.

Now scientists have managed to work out what exactly is going on in the brains of our little friends. According to Tony Buffington, a professor at Ohio State University in the US, cats' strange behavior(行为)largely comes from their way of life back in the wild. "Cats today still have many of the same natural abilities that allowed them to live in the wild for millions of years." he said in a TED Talk. "To them, our homes are their jungles(丛林)."

Cats' bodies and great balancing(平衡)abilities allow them to climb to high places to better look at the environment. Even though they don't have to hunt(猎食)any more in human houses, they still keep the old habit of observing the living room from, for example, the top of the fridge.

Cats' hunting abilities also make them attack small things like keys and USB drives.

In the wild, they hunt whatever they can get for food, and most of the animals they kill are small. However, a cat can also be prey. This explains why they like to stay in small spaces like drawers or washing machines—they are hiding, or they think they are hiding, from more dangerous animals. This is also why cats prefer a clean box: a dirty one with an unpleasant smell could easily show enemies where they are.

Knowing how cats' minds work is not only useful for better understanding them, it may also help cats' owners to better meet cats' needs. For example, owners could try to make climbing easier for cats by moving their furniture around. They could also use "food puzzles" to make eating feel more like hunting instead of just giving food to the cats.

【1】According to the passage, Tony Buffington agrees that ________.

A.cats' strange behavior is hard for people to understand

B.cats are more used to living in the wild than in humans' homes

C.cats' natural abilities are still helpful to make them get food today

D.cats act strangely mainly because of their natural abilities in the wild

【2】The word "prey" in Paragraph 4 probably means"________".

A.an animal that lives in the jungles

B.an animal that likes keeping itself clean

C.an animal that likes playing hiding games with people

D.an animal that becomes others' food after being hunted

【3】According to the writer, cats' owners can better meet cats' needs by ________.

A.creating hunting games at home B.giving them delicious food

C.making them go back to the wild D.putting them in the furniture

【4】What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?

A.To describe cats' past wild experience to readers.

B.To tell cat owners how to make life easier for cats.

C.To explain the reasons behind cats' strange behavior.

D.To compare cats' behavior in human homes with that in the wild.

25、   Rivers are one of our most important natural resources(资源). Many of the world’s great cities are located on rivers, and almost every country has at l______ one river running through it that plays an important part in the lives of its people.

Since the beginning of history, people have used rivers for transportation. The longest one in the United States is the Mississippi. The lifeline of Egypt is the Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation; ships can t______ along it for a thousand miles. Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in southeastern Asia. The greatest of all for navigation（航海）, however, is the Amazon in Brazil（巴西）. It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles up it.

B_______ transportation, rivers give food to eat, water to drink, water for crops, and chances for fun. In order to increase the supply(供给) of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝) a________ a river and let a lake form behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate (灌溉) their fields but also to p_______ electricity for their homes and industries.

However, large cities and industries that are located on rivers often cause problems. As the cities grow in size and industries increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with c_______ and other materials. People are learning the importance, however, of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits (利益) of these natural resources.
