Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy.Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims (声称) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your house is your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.31. Some scienti sts believe that most of the time bird’s singing is actually ________.A. an expression of happinessB. a way of angerC. an expression of warningD. a way of greeting32. What is a bird’s “territory”?A. A place where families of other species are accepted.B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.C. An area for which birds fight against each other.D. An area which a bird considers to be its own.33. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?A. Because they want to invite more friends.B. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.C. Because they want to find outsiders around.D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.34. How does the writer explain birds’ singing?A. By telling a bird’s story.B. By reporting experiment results.C. By telling a birds’ daily life.D. By comparing birds with human beings.35. What does the underline word “screaming” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. 尖叫声B. 令人惊愕的C. 哭喊声D. 令人害怕的DThere lived twin brothers called Sam and Tom.They were identical twins, and even the mother of the twin boys found it too hard to tell them apart during the first few months of birth. However, they were like two poles when it came to everything other than their appearance. They neither agreed with anything nor did they share even one single trait(特点，特性).Sam had no friends, whereas for Tom the world was friendship. Sam loved sweet and Tom loved to eat spicy foods. Sam was mommy’s pet and Tom was daddy’s pet. While Sam was generous(慷慨的), Tom was greedy(贪婪的)!As they grew up, the father of the twin boys wanted to share his fortune equally. However, Tom did not agree and he argued that whoever was more intelligent and stronger, would gain a larger share of wealth than the other.Sam agreed. Their father decided to organize a competition between the two. And he ordered the two sons to walk as long as they could and they should return home before the sunset. Whoever covered the longer distance and returned home before sunset would be offered a huge amount of wealth proportionate(adj.相应的) to the distance they covered. They didn’t carry watches to calculate time.Both started to walk a long way during a sunny day. Sam walked slowly and steadily. Tom urged to win over Sam, so he started to run instantly. The distance they covered until noon would be equal to the distance they would reach home before sunset. It was noon and Sam decided to return so that he could reach home on time.However, Tom, with his greed to earn more wealth, did not turn his way back home even after noon. He walked a distance twice longer than what Sam covered and decided to return as the evening fell. He had hoped to return home as the sun turned orange in the evening. Unfortunately, he could not even make halfway home when the moon rose. He lost the race and was defeated by his greed!36. Why could their mother hardly judge the two boys at first?A. Because they had the same character.B. Because they were almost the same in appearance.C. Because they often wore the same clothes.D. Because they often took the same actions.37.
