r.8.閱讀理解 I walked into a stranger as he passed by me. Excuse me. I said. He replied with a smile and said, Please excuse me, too. I didn39。t notice you. We apologized(道歉) and went for our own ways. Later that day, when I was cooking, my daughter was standing too near. When I turned to reach for some milk, I nearly knocked her over. Move out of the way! I shouted. She walked away sadly.

But with a daughter you love, you were unkind. Your daughter brought you some flowers that she picked herself this afternoon. You will find them in the kitchen by the door.

I picked them because they39。re pretty like you. I knew you39。d like them, especially the blue ones. I tearfully replied, Sweetie, I39。m really sorry for the way I acted today.

We visited the Wildlife Park. The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals. Some are native(當?shù)氐模?to Australis and can only be found there. There are more than 500 animals there, including kangaroos, koalas(考拉)and crocodiles(鱷魚). They are kept in their natural environment. I like the Wildlife Park better than a zoo. In zoos, most of the animals are in cages(籠子). We first spent some time with the kangaroos. We could touch and feel them. It was very exciting to be so close to them. There were koalas there too. They looked very cuddly(令人想擁抱的). Although we couldn39。t carry koalas, I could take a photo with one. It is a wonderful souvenir(紀念品) of my holiday in Sydney. The Wildlife Park has plenty of freshwater crocodiles and saltwater crocodiles. Some of them are very big and scary(嚇人的)with huge teeth! I did not want to get too close to them. There was also a bird show. The keepers(飼養(yǎng)員)showed us different species(種類)of birds. I saw an old parrot(鸚鵡). It could talk and made a great impression on me. I enjoy the trip very much.

Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can39。t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat. How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat39。s brain gives a signal. This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat39。s brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person. Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Robots39。 noses don39。t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that. Rats can also see in the dark, they are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don39。t need electricity! The rat project is not finished. But a scientist says, It would be great. A rat could get into any place we couldn39。t get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn39。t safe. Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course).(1)Where do you think you can find this passage? A.In a magazine about toys.160
