    In northern China during spring, big sandstorm often make trouble for people. Sandstorms usually happen in spring. They have happened in more than 10 provinces in northern China this year. People in southern China don’t have to worry about this kind of bad weather. Most of the sand comes from the north of China. In northern China, lots of places have few trees and don’t get much rain.

    We know that many animals do not stay in one place. Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.
    When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration (迁徙) is probably the migration of fish, which is called “salmon”(蛙鱼). This fish is born in fresh(淡的) water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.
    Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster (龙虾). Every year, when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go. So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other times we don’t. Maybe living things just like to travel.
    【小题1】 Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to _______.

    A．enjoy warmer weather
    B．find food more easily
    C．find beautiful places
    D．get away from crowded places
    【小题2】 The underlined word “There” in the second passage means “___________”.
    A．in cold waterB．in warm water
    C．in salty waterD．in fresh water
    【小题3】 Why do the lobsters get into a long line to move?
    A．It’s a safe traveling way.
    B．The weather is bad.
    C．It is still unknown to us.
    D．They just don’t want not to be too crowded.
    【小题4】 The passage is mainly about ________________.”
    A．the migration of animals
    B．the migration of fish
    C．the travel of animals
