2017黄石英语中考练习真题及答案(2)53. What’s the second paragraph mainly about?A. Cycling has good points compared with driving.B. Driving is the best way for us to make a journey.C. The parking lot is often filled with plenty of cars.D. Driving to work is much expensive than cycling.54. What does the writer tell us in the third paragraph?A. Cycling is good for our environment.B. Cycling will appear in sports centers.C. Cycling is sure to help us keep healthy.D. Cycling changed Jimmy’s daily routine.55. What does the writer write this passage for?A. To show us it’s so good to drive to work every day.B. To advise us how to stay young by doing exercise.C. To tell us what we ought to do at the traffic rush hour.D. To prove why he cycles to work instead of driving.DWe all know that animals are better at some things than our humans, and we can usually explain why animals can do certain things better than us. One of the skills which many animals have is homing instinct(本能). These animals such as pigeons, bees, salmons(三文鱼), frogs and cats are able to find their way home, sometimes making journeys of hundreds of kilometers back home. In our daily life, humans can make use of an animal’s homing instinct. Pigeons, for examples have been used to carry messages or letters to the battles(战场) in times of war. Nowadays some people join in the Pigeon Association(协会) with the pigeons they have trained because they look on pigeon racing as a hobby and they even bet(打赌) money on which pigeon wouldwin in the race organized by the association.There are many interesting stories of the homing instinct at work. In the USA a cat traveled 1,360 kilometers back to its old home after the owners moved, taking nearly a year over the journey. When we lose our kitten(小猫), we usually find her again near the house where she was born. We have a pond in the garden where the frogs come back every year. I even heard a dog which was injured by a car managed to take itself to the vet! There are other wonderful stories about the homing instinct. But how do these animals find their way home? They don’t have satellite navigation(导航) with them, they can’t read maps and, as far as we know, they can’t ask each other for directions. It seems that some animals, such as salmons, use their sense of smell to take them back to the place where they were born. Other animals such as birds and bees may use the sun, the stars and the moon to help them find their way. There is a theory (理论) that some animals have magnetic(磁的) cells in their brain which help them to find their way. As far as cats are concerned, nobody really knows how their homing instinct works and I am sure cats are never going to give away their secrets.Finally, a joke about the homing instinct:Question: What will you get if you cross(杂交) a pigeon with a parrot?Answer: A bird which can stop and ask the way home!56. What does the underlined phrase “give away” probably mean in the passage?A. Hand out.B. Look into.C. Show off.D. Let out.57. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Ancient people used to make money by flying pigeons.B. The writer has collected many stories about the animals.C. All the animals can go back home from far away places.D. The writer knows exactly how animals’ homing instinct works.58. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Animals and their Living Habits.B. A Good Way to Protect Animals.C. A Special Skill of the Animals.D. All Kinds of Animals in Nature.59. What can we infer from the passage?A. We should learn from nature and make inventions.B. We must stop the experiments on animals at once.C. We have already known everything well in nature.D. We still need to make clear some secrets of nature.七、阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
