Owls (猫头鹰) are active (活跃的) mainly at night. They hunt when it’s dark. We almost
never see owls, but many of us like these them very much. People like then very much .There is
always some art works or stories about an owl. We can find owls on company logos (标识), in
children’s books, etc. So what makes owls so popular
Some bird scientists believe owls’ popularity lies largely in their “cool” looks. To see
clearly in the dark, owls have evolved (进化) to have large eyes. Their eyes are cylindrical (筒状
的). So owls cannot roll their eyes. But their heads can do most rolling-around work. It’s also for
this reason that owls can turn their heads almost around on their necks.
Owls also use sounds to hunt. Their ears are lopsided — the left ear is a little higher than
the right ear. A noise goes in one ear before it arrives in the other. This helps owls tell which
direction (方向) a sound is coming from. To make their sense of hearing even better, the owl’s
whole face is like a satellite dish (卫星接收器) for sound waves. Their beaks (喙) are very small
so that they won’t get in the way.
Thanks to such unusual looks and abilities, owls became known as strange and wonderful
animals. Over the centuries, Lots of stories about them have been created. These stories have
made more people become interested in owls and made them become more popular!
62. According to Paragraph 3, where are owl’s ears usually located (位于)
A．①② B．①④ C．②③ D．③④
63. Which of the following is NOT the reason that owls have a good sense of hearing
A．Theirs ears are lopsided.
B．Their beaks are very small.
C．Their faces are like satellite dishes.
D．They turn their heads almost around on their necks.
64. In which part of a magazine can you probably read the passage
A. Life and health B. Language and culture
C. Science and technology (技术) D. Natural world
65. Which is the BEST title (标题) of the passage
A. Why Owls Are So Popular B. Say No To Strange Owls
C. Interesting Stories About Owls D. An Active Bird Is Born
