Cats are the most popular pets among Americans. So it is not surprising that there are a lot of expressions about cats. Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries (金絲雀). If someone looks very proud and satisfied with himself, we say “he looks like the cat that ate the canary.”
Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches. So if you “play cat and mouse” with someone, it means that you change between different kinds of behavior when dealing with another person. For example, a girl might offer something sweet to her little brother and then take it away when he reaches for it.
Americans might say that something is “the cat’s miaow” or “the cat’s pajamas(睡衣)” to describe something that is the best or finest. “A copycat” is someone who acts just like someone else or copies another person’s work. “A fat cat” is a person with a lot of money.
If you tell about something that is supposed to be a secret, we say you “l(fā)et the cat out of the bag”. If you are not able to speak or answer a question, someone might ask you if “the cat has got your tongue(舌頭)”
Have you ever watched children in a classroom when their teacher leaves for a few minutes? “When the cat’s away, the mice will play” means people sometimes act badly when there is no supervision (監(jiān)管).
You may have heard the expression “curiosity killed the cat”. This means caring too much about things that are not your business might cause problems.
If you have ever had cats as pets, you know it is difficult to train them or to get them to do something. Cats are not like Sheep or cows that can be moved in a group. So we say a difficult or impossible job is like “herding (放牧) cats “
小題1:What can we learn from the passage?
A．The expression “a fat cat” is used to describe someone who is very fat.
B．The expression “play cat and mouse” usually means “play tricks on others”.
C．It is more difficult to keep sheep or cows than cats.
D．There are more expressions about cats than those about dogs.
小題2: In which of the following situations do we most probably use the expression “curiosity killed the cat”?
A．Someone always asked a lady her age or weight and it made her angry.
B．Someone promised to keep a secret but he failed to do so.
C．Someone won the first prize in an English singing competition and he felt very excited.
D．Someone tried to swim across the Yangtze River with his newly broken legs.
小題3:Where can you most probably find the passage?
A．In a scientific research paper about cats.
B．On a website telling people how to keep cats.
C．In a magazine telling various jokes and funny stories.
D．In a language book that teaches students how to use American slang.

Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is the color of most growing plants, too.
Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet finished or plants that are not ripe.
For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a situation. In the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns had not yet developed. A century or so later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in war (戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)). By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today--a person who is new in a job.
About one hundred years ago, greenhorn was a popular expression in the American west. Old-timers used it to describe a man who had just arrived from one of the big cities in the east. The greenhorn didn’t have the skills that he would need to live in the hard, rough country.
Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from the early nineteen hundreds.
A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died.
The Green Revolution (革命) is the name which was given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural (農(nóng)業(yè)的) scientists who had green thumbs.
小題1:According to the passage, a greenhorn means________ now.
A．a(chǎn) young cow or ox whose horns have not yet developed
B．a(chǎn) soldier who has not had any experience in war
C．a(chǎn) person who is new in a job
D．a(chǎn) man who doesn’t have the skills to live in the country
小題2:The meaning of the underlined word “ripe” in the second paragraph is ________.
A．未完成的B．成熟的C．青澀的D．老練的
小題3:Which of the following about the Green Revolution is NOT right?
A．If there weren’t the Green Revolution, we would have no rice to eat.
B．The expression “the Green Revolution” appeared several years ago.
C．Because of the Green Revolution, we have more kinds of rice and other grains.
D．Agricultural scientists with green thumbs started the Green Revolution.
小題4:We can know from the passage that _______.
A．a(chǎn)ll growing plants is green
B．green is the most important color in nature
C．a(chǎn) person with a green thumb can make plants grow well
D．the expression “a green thumb” has a history of two hundred years
小題5:The main idea of the passage is ________.
A．a(chǎn) greenhornB．a(chǎn) green thumb

In ancient China, the State of Wu made an attack on the State of Yue. The king of Wu was badly hurt and soon died. His son Fu Chai became the new king.
