三、阅读理解(共10小题，每小题2分，满分20分)
(A)
Just like us, animals talk to each other all the time. However, instead of words, they use sounds and movements. Social animals live together so there's a lot to say! What's more, it's not just elephants, monkeys and other animals we consider to be smart that are expert communicators, insects(昆虫) like ants and bees can communicate very well, too.
The greater spot- nosed monkey is really good at communication. If it notices a lion, it calls“pyow” to warn other monkeys to climb higher into trees. If it sees an eagle(鹰), it calls“ hack” as a warning to hide closer to the ground. Can you guess what“ pyow, pyow, pyow, hack, hack, hack” means No, not“ three lions and four eagles”. In fact, it means big trouble is coming and they should leave at once.
In the insect world, one of the most surprising examples of communication is actually a dance, which is performed by honeybees. When returning home after looking for food, worker bees perform something called a waggle dance to tell other bees where the food is.
We still have a lot to learn about communication in the animal world, but it's quite clear that animals can say more than we realize. Is it possible that they can understand more than we realize too

A. By listing numbers. B. By giving examples.
C. By raising questions. D. By adding sayings.
( )33. According to the reading, some worker bees perform a waggle dance to
A. tell other bees where the food can be found
B. tell other bees how much food is available
C. warn other bees to get out of here at once
D. ask honeybees to collect some food outside

Do you have a pet Owning a pet is becoming more popular in China these days. And pet owners are now willing to spend more money on their pets than before.
According to a report from Goumin.com and Pet Fair Asia, Chinese people living in cities spent a total of 202.4 billion yuan on their pets in 2019. Most pet owners are people born after 1990. Most of them have high incomes(收入) and are well educated.
Pet owners in China are spending more on pet food, clothing and furniture, according to a report from Euromonitor International.
Miss Hou, 28, lives in the city of Chengdu. She spent 6,000 yuan on her two cats last year.“I bought tinned cat food from the United States, New Zealand, Japan and Thailand.” Hou said to Xinhua.“ If I have time, I also cook for them.” she said.
“ An aging society and fewer people having children are among the main reasons why more people are keeping pets.”said LiuXiaoxia,CEO of Goumin.com.“Keeping pets has met the emotional needs of many people.Almost 60 percent of pet owners see their animal friends as their own children,” Liu said.
Beating loneliness and pressure might be another reason. Many young people are leaving their home towns to make a living in big cities.“ They are suffering from great loneliness and pressure, as they have few friends and face a high cost of living. Keeping pets will help them feel relaxed,” the 2019 Chinese Pet Industry White Paper said.

Over the years, the number of whales has dropped rapidly. From 1946 to1986, about 340,000 whales were killed. People worry that children in the future can only see whales in pictures. They believe all kinds of whale hunting(捕猎) should be stopped before it is too late.
Some people are trying to stop whale hunting all over the world. But they fail to notice one fact. Whale hunting was going on for a long time before the number of whales went down and became a problem.
Whale hunting started as early as 1,500 years ago. This was how tribespeople(部落成员) fed their families. They hunted whales for meat because almost nothing could grow on their land. They also made whale fat into oil and used it to make candles or oil lamps. Over the years, whale hunting became their way of living, and even part of who they are.
Tribe whale hunting is not the thing we should worry about. Of all the whales that were killed over the past forty years, only 10% were hunted by tribespeople. The other 90% died at the hands of the money- making hunting business. When we try to stop all kinds of whale hunting, we should think what we are asking tribespeople to give up and whether this is the best answer to the problem of whale hunting.
( )37. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1
A. The problem of whale hunting. B. The reason of whale hunting.
C. The process of whale hunting. D. The rule of whale hunting.
( )38. What does the underlined word“ fact” refer to in Paragraph 2
A. About 340,000 whales died from 1946 to 1986 because of whale hunting.
B. Some people worry that whales will die out and try to stop whale hunting.
C. Whale hunting started early before the number of whales dropped rapidly.
D. Whale hunting was always seen in newspapers before people noticed that.
( )39. Why did tribespeople hunt whales according to the passage
A. Because they believed whales could bring good luck.
B. Because they wanted to sell whale oil to make money.
C. Because whales often made tribespeople seriously hurt.
D. Because there was almost nothing to eat on the land.
( )40. Which idea may the writer probably agree with
A. We should stop all kinds of whale hunting right away.
B. There is no need to worry about the number of whales.
C. Tribes people's way of living is as important as animal lives.
