Ⅰ.阅读理解
Living in the wild can be hard. Finding food and staying safe aren't easy. Each day, animals struggle to sur?vive in their habitats. Not all animals get by on their own. Some animals form a close partnership with other kinds of animals. These pairings are called symbiotic (共生的) rela?tionships.
In a symbiotic relationship, the animals depend on each other. One animal helps the other meet its needs. Sounds good, right Not always. Some animals are not very kind to their partners. In some cases, one animal meets its needs but hurts its partner. Take ticks (壁虱) for example. These insects suck blood to live. To get blood, they attach themselves to other kinds of animals. Ticks can pass germs that cause disease instead of helping their hosts.
In other relationships, animals don't treat their part?ners so poorly. Both animals benefit, or get help, from liv?ing with the other animal.
Small animals called cleaner shrimps have found a way of helping fish at coral reefs. As their name suggests, the shrimps clean the fish. They hang out at what scientists call a cleaning station. A fish stops by. Then a shrimp climbs onto the fish and even steps into the fish's mouth. The shrimp uses its tiny claws to pick stuff off the fish's body. That can include dead skin, tiny pieces of food, and wee creatures that can hurt the fish. The fish gets a nice cleaning. The shrimp enjoys a tasty meal of fish trash.
Small birds called plovers are also in the cleaning busi? ness. They have big customers, crocodiles. Crocodiles have long snouts (口鼻部) filled with sharp teeth. Cleaning them is tricky. When a crocodile opens its mouth, the plover hops right in. The crocodile does not snap its snout shut. Instead, it lets the plover eat small, harmful animals attached to its teeth. The plover gets an easy meal while the crocodile gets clean teeth.
1.The text is mainly about ________.

SOCIALIZING YOUR DOG
Keep it fun and enjoyable
Socialization shouldn't feel like work because it's really just a natural process dogs must go through to enjoy their time with other dogs and humans.__1__. They'll help reduce any anxiety produced by an unfamiliar experience. Bringing a few of your dog's favorite toys along can also help keep your puppy entertained and relaxed while visiting a new place.
Your dog should lead the way, not you
__2__.When introducing them to another puppy, let both dogs smell each other (that's their way of saying hello) while holding onto their leash (狗链). If one becomes fearful or aggressive, gently pull him away.__3__.
Start socializing your puppy early
Dogs have a sensitive period between the ages of 7 and 12 weeks when their surroundings make a huge impression on them.__4__.Use this early courage to expose (使接触) them to a variety of people, places, animals and sounds so they form positive associations with those things.
__5__
Between weeks 8 and 11, your puppy may display signs of fear when faced with unfamiliar situations. If you start noticing sudden, negative reactions from your puppy (e.g. hugging your legs), do your best to protect him from frightening or painful meetings.
A.Fears can occur at other times
B.Be careful of a sudden fear period
C.Keep social activities pleasant by bringing along a few dog treats
D.Like children, puppies at this age are eager and unafraid to meet new things
E.Pains at this stage can be more lasting than fears that occur at other times in their lives
F.A common mistake pet parents make is forcing their dogs into uncomfortable situations
G.The same should be done when you're introducing them to humans or other types of pets
