    more than ever. They made loud noises, like bigger frogs. That night, an  earthquake  struck(袭击)  the
    city.

        There are seabirds as well as land-birds. The most ordinary seabird is the seagull. It has a white body,
    a white  head  and a yellow beak.   There is  a  very, very  spot  of  red  at  the  very  end  of  the  beak,
    underneath.   All  gulls have very strong wings so that they can fly far out to sea. If a gull flies out too far,
    so that it is too tired to fly back to the shore(岸边), it does not get frightened, for it can sit and rest upon
    the waves(波浪). A seagull's  wings do not get wet because all its feathers have a kind of oil over them,
    so that when the water gets on to the feathers, it just runs off again. Gulls can even sleep upon the waves.
        Sailors (水手) know a lot about seagulls and they never kill them. When the gulls fly a long way out to
    sea, sailors say that it means fine weather is coming. When the gulls stay  near the shore, sailors say that
    there will be much wind and rain, and perhaps a storm, for the gulls know  more about the weather than
    sailors do.
    1. The seagull is a kind of ________.            
    A. fish

         Famous for its coat of reddish orange with dark stripes, the tiger is the largest wild cat in the world.
    Unlike lions, adult tigers like to live alone. Each tiger has its own territory. It doesn't like other tigers to
    enter its space. If one does, you can hear the tiger's roar(咆哮) for miles.
         Tigers wait until dark to hunt. Once a tiger has found its prey, it gets as close as possible. Then the
    tiger pulls the animal off its feet   with  its sharp teeth and claws (爪 子) and kills the prey by biting its
    neck.
         Tigers love eating meat. After eating a lot, they often  do  not  need  to  eat again for several days.
    Large deer make up nearly three- fourths of a tiger's food. They   also   prey on wild   pigs and cows.
         Did you know how useful a tiger's tail is? It is almost half as long as its whole body and very good
    at keeping the tiger's balace when it runs after prey.
