     Rabbits are easy to raise. They are clean and quiet. They don't need a lot of room. And
it costs a small amount of money to feed them , but you get a big return.
     One male and two females will produce as many as fifty more rabbits in a year. That is
enough to provide enough meat for a family. Rabbit meat is high in protein and low in fat.
     You don't have to be a farmer to raise rabbits. You can raise them in the city.
     Rabbit houses are easy to make with wood and wire. They don't have to be very big.
But each rabbit must have its own little room in the house. This is very important. Each
room should be about 75 centimeters wide,60 centimeters high and one meter deep.
     Fencing is used for the sides and floor of the rabbit house. The holes in the wire fencing
should be about one centimeter square.Waste from the animals will drop through the holes.
This keeps the rabbit house clean and dry.
     Rabbits need a lot of fresh air and sunlight. Cover the sides of the rabbit house only to
protect it from rain.
     Rabbits eat mostly grass and leaves. Hang feeding containers on the outside of the house
to let the rabbits eat whenever they want. They simply pull the grass and leaves through
the holes in the fence.
Each room should have fresh water. The water containers should be heavy so the rabbits
cannot turn them over. Or you can tie the containers to the fence.
     One month after mating (交配) , female rabbits give birth to about eight babies. In two
months,a baby rabbit should weigh about two kilograms. This is big enough to make a
meal for a small family.
     Rabbits are also valuable for their fur. It takes time, skill and money to prepare the fur
and skin for use. If you have only a few rabbits,it probably would be best to let a tanner
(制革工) prepare the fur for you. Skill is also needed to remove the fur from the rabbit.
     But rabbits do not have to be dead to be valuable .Many people enjoy keeping rabbits
as friendly pets. And rabbit waste makes an excellent fertilizer(肥料) . Itcanbemixeddirectly
into the soil to improve the growth of vegetables , trees and flowering plants.
1. The text is written mainly _______.
A. to explain why rabbits are clean and quiet
B. to let people know more about rabbits
C. to tell readers how to raise rabbits
D. to introduce a small friendly animal pet
2. What is important if you raise rabbits?_______
A. Holes are needed for waste to drop through.
B. Each rabbit must be given a separate room.
C. Each room must have clean water every day.
D. Feeding containers are hung on the fence.
3. Why should the holes in the wire fence be about one centimeter square ?______
A. Because the holes let in sunlight.
B. Because rabbits like these holes.
C. Because rabbits get food from them.
D. Because waste of rabbits drops through the holes.
4. We learn from the text that rabbits ________.
A. need enough fresh air and sunlight
B. produce a lot of waste every day
C. feed on only fresh grass and leaves
D. make better pets than dogs and cats

阅读理解
     My name is Lanier Lobdell, and I am a 55 - year - old woman with rheumatoid arthritis (风湿性
关节炎), or RA. RA is a disease that mostly affects the joints, but it can also affect internal organs. I
have had RA for almost21 years, and it definitely has changed my life, however, I try not to live my life
like I have a disease.
     For me, attitude is everything. I always try to find humor in the situation or try to ignore it, but that
does not always work. These days I can hardly walk due to my ankles, yet I still try and do the things I
always did. I love riding my motorcycle, and I try to take long trips every year.
      This year I got involved with some folks who make the biologic medicine I am on, to create the
Going the Extra Mile Tour to raise awareness about RA. The tour will take me across the country and
back on my motorcycle, making stops along the way to meet with local Arthritis Foundation (AF)
chapters and people who are affected by all forms of arthritis including RA.
     I want to encourage people not to let RA stop them from living their lives the best they can. There
are so many new medicines coming out these days, and they can really help. People have to be their
own supporters and get informed -- knowledge is power. Talk to your doctor and focus on what you
can do--not what you can't. Rest when your body is telling you to and push and keep going when you
can. Learn to listen to your body- that's how I deal with having RA.
