Can you find anything strange about the cat on the left?

In 1961, a man found a strange cat on his farm in Scotland. The cat’s ears were folded (折著的), bent (彎曲) forward, on its head. In fact, this was a new kind of cat. People named it the “Scottish Fold”.

The Scottish Fold has a round head and big eyes. Its neck and legs are short. They make it look very lovely. Interestingly, all the Scottish Folds are born with straight and unfolded ears. And when they are growing up day by day, some cats’ ears will begin to fold. So, the Scottish Fold comes in two types: folded ears and straight ears.

There is a nickname（昵稱）for the Scottish Fold. It is the “Messenger(信使）of Peace”. Why? Because the Folds are sweet and friendly animals. They can get along well with other cats. And unlike some other cats, they can even get along well with dogs! In many different places, for example, at a noisy house or in a cat show, you can see them playing with other animals happily.

Well, when you come to a new school, do you think it’s difficult to feel comfortable in the new place? Perhaps you can learn from the Scottish Fold, which is always sweet and friendly to others.

1.What does the Scottish Fold look like?

A. It has no ears.

C. It doesn’t look very lovely.

D. Its neck and legs are long.

2.What does get along well mean in Chinese?

3.Why do people name the Folds “Messenger of Peace”?

A. Because their ears are folded.

B. Because they look very cute.

C. Because they can get on well with other animals.

D. Because they can stay at a noisy house or in a cat show.

4.According to the passage, what is the writer’s advice to us when we are in a new environment（環(huán)境）?

A. We should have a nickname.

B. We should learn from the cats.

C. We should get along well with dogs.

Answer the questions（根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答下列問題)

Once there was a little girl named Mary Lennox and her two little friends, Dickon and Colin.

Both of Mary’s parents died when she was a little baby. She was sent to her uncle, Mr. Archilbald Crave, who had a son named Colin.

Mary was one a selfish (自私的. girl. She cared for nobody else except herself and she was always alone. She started to know the word “friend” after the met Dickon, the gardener’s son. The little boy was very kind to Mary. They went to the Secret Garden every day, planting and playing.

Mary never expected that making the garden beautiful would bring such a wonderful feeling to her.

She was so happy to be with Dickon that she almost forgot all the sad things around her. She came out of her small lonely world.

After she met Colin, Mary finally found the very person to take care of Colin, the sick boy who couldn’t even walk, had been in bed for about ten years. Before he met Mary, he was taken care of by the servants, but no one really cared how he was. He couldn’t find any reason to live.

So he cried and cried, thinking about death. But Mary came. Colin was completely attracted to Mary and to all those fresh thoughts and stories which came out of her mouth. Of course, the most exciting of all was the Secret Garden.

The feeling of having someone share your secret is wonderful, especially for the children.

Colin used to be too weak to change his life, but now he had Mary, Dickon and the Secret Garden.

All these gave him courage. Finally, with the help of his two little friends, he managed to stand up for the first time.

2.Why was Mary sent to her uncle’s?

3.What did Mary and Dickon do in the Secret Garden?
