Parrots areprey animals,whichmeansthat otherpredators(捕食者)in the wild,such as hawks or snakes,are looking to make them into a meal.This one factor influences parrots'

behaviorinyourhousemorethananyother.

Parrots are most easily hurt when feeding on the ground;membership in a group plays an important function in ensuring their safety and improving their chances of survival from attacks by predators.The most common predators of parrots include hawks,snakes,cats, monkeys,andbats.Somepredatorsmakeattacksonlyduringthedaywhileothershuntinthe

night.

As prey animals,parrots are constantly watching out for danger and they instinctively (本能地)react to risks.Their first choice is to take flight.However,if this is not possible,they

will fight with their powerful beaks to defend themselves.

Because their biggest enemy is the hawk,parrots are especially reactive to quick movements from above and behind.For this reason,it is wise to avoid quick,sudden movements near your bird.This is a built-in reaction not subject to logic or reason.Simpleand relatively harmless household objects can draw extreme fear responses from a bird.For example,aballoon may represent a hawk or a vacuum hose (吸尘器软管)may bethe same as

a snake in your bird'smind.

As prey animals,parrots are often frightened by exposure to new household items or strangers.It is important to expose your bird to safe experiences and changes starting at a very young age to build flexibility and improve their adaptability.Variety in diet and toys,travel, and exposure to newpeople and places all help to make yourbird more flexible and adaptable

to change

24.What is important for parrots to better survive from attacks in the wild?

A.Living in a group B.Growing beautiful feathers.

C.Feeding on the ground. D.Avoiding coming out at night.

25.What is parrots'first response to an immediate risk?

A.To attack back. B.To get away

C.To protect the young. D.To play dead

26.Why would a balloon frighten a parrot?

A.It may explode suddenly. B.It maybe in a strange shape.

C.It may have a strong color. D.It may move around quickly.

27.What is the author's purpose of writing the text?

A.To explain wild parrots'behavior. B.To give advice on raising a parrot.

C.To call for action to protect animals. D.To introduce a study on bird ecology.

In his 1936 work How to Win Friends and Influence People,Dale Carnegie wrote:“I

have come to the conclusion that there is only one way to get the best of an argument -andthat is to avoid it."This distaste for arguments is common,but it depends on a mistaken view of arguments that causes problems for our personal and social lives -and in many ways

For lots ofkids,toddlerhood(幼儿期)isanimportanttimeforfriendship.Studiesshow that theearlier kidslearn toform positiverelationships,thebettertheyareatrelatingtoothersasteenagersandadults.Playingtogetheralsohelpsthesekidspracticesocialbehaviors,such

as kindness,sharing,and cooperation.

Even so,how quickly your child develops into a social creature may also depend on his

temperament (性格).Some toddlers are very social,but others are shy.In addition,the waythat toddlers demonstrate that they like other children is markedly different from what adults think of as expressions of friendship.Research at Ohio State University in Columbus foundthat atoddler'sway ofsaying “I likeyou"duringplay is likelyto come inthe form ofcopying

a friend's behavior.

This seemingly unusual way of demonstrating fondness can result in unpleasant behavior. Regardless of how much they like a playmate,they may still grab his toys,refuse to share, and get bossy.But experts say that this is a normal and necessary part of friendship for kidsthis age.Through play experiences,toddlers learn social rules.That's why it's so important to take an active role in your toddler's social encounters by setting limits and offering frequentreminders of what they are.When you establish these guidelines,explain the reasons behind

them.

Begin by helping your child learn sympathy("Ben is crying.What's making him so sad?”),then suggest how he could resolve the problem("Maybe he would feel better if you let him play the ball.”).When your child shares or shows empathy(同理心)toward a friend,

praise him(“Ben stopped crying!You made him feel better.”).

Another way to encourage healthy social interaction is by encouraging kids to use words -not fists -to express how they feel.It's also important to be mindful of how your child's personality affects playtime.Kids are easy to get angry when they're sleepy or hungry,so

schedule playtime when they're refreshed.

32.What does it indicate when toddlers copy their playmates'behavior?

A.They are interested in acting. B.They are shy with the strangers.

C.They are fond of their playmates. D.They are tired of playing games.

33.What does the author suggest parents do for their kids?

A.Design games for them. B.Find them suitable playmates.

C.Play together with them. D.Help them understand social rules.

34.What is the function of the quoted statements in paragraph 4?

A.Giving examples. B.Explaining concepts.

C.Providing evidence. D.Making comparisons.

35.Which ofthe following is thebesttitle forthetext?

A.How Children Adapt to Changes B.How to Be a Role Model for Children

C.How Your Baby Learns to Love D.How to Communicate with Your Kid
