第三部分 阅读理解?（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。????

A

While most of us have dogs and cats as pets, many people are beginning to have lions, tigers, and bears as their best. What’s more, some people even own deer, kangaroos, snakes, you name it.

Some people think they do it to help protect the animals, many species of which are threatened or endangered. In many cases there are no laws against owning these kinds of animals. And it’s not as hard as it used to be to buy exotic（异国的）pets thanks to the Internet. The owners often truly love these animals but it’s very hard to care properly for them, and the cost is also high. Worse still, they can carry diseases. And they are dangerous not only for the owner but also for neighbors and the public as well.

“It may be easy to buy an exotic animal, but it is not a good idea. It is bad for the animals, bad for us and bad for the environment,” say those who are against owning wild and exotic animals. They believe that wild animals need to remain wild. That means they should live in their natural habitats, eat specific kinds of food, behave in the way they’re supposed to, and be with animals of their own kind. Owning them privately actually harms them. They have needs that are very different from dogs and cats. The more they’re kept with other captive（捕获的）animals, the more they change genetically over time, becoming different from the species they once were.

Dogs and cats have been domesticated（驯养）over thousands of years. Experts believe that it took at least five thousand years or perhaps longer than ten thousand years, for wolves to evolve(进化) into dogs. Therefore, there are thousands of years of difference between a wild and a domestic animal. Domesticated animals like dogs and cats don’t do well without people, and wild and exotic animals don’t do will with people.

51. We can learn from Paragraph 1 that wild and exotic animals _____.

A. have become popular pets nowadays

B. have caused some trouble to human beings

C. are being treated kindly by human beings

D. are becoming widely known to human beings

52. Which of the following do those who are against owning wild animals agree with ?

A. Wild animals should be raised in a scientific way.

B. Wild animals needn’t be kept away from human beings.

C. Keeping wild animals destroys nature.

D. It takes short time to change wild animals into friendly pets.

53. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean ?

A. Humans always like living with animals.

B. Humans have a deep influence on animals’ evolution.

C. Wild animals cannot live without the help of human beings.

D. Domesticated animals and wild animals cannot get along well with each other.

54. How is the passage mainly developed ?

A. By following the order of time. B. By following the order of importance.

C. By making comparisons. D. By providing examples.

B

The generation gap is not
