    How Do Animals Catch Their ZZZ’s?

    Different creatures have developed some pretty creative ways to get their rest and stay safe. The lizard（蜥蝎）likes to sleep at the far end of small branches hanging out over a pond or lake in the rain forest. If a snake tries to slither up the branch to eat it ,it will shake the branch and knock the lizard off ,and the lizard will fall safely into the water. Chameleons can change color to match their surroundings in order to hide even while sleeping.

    Corillas（大猩猩）like to sleep high in the trees. They build a new bed every night, sometimes taking up to half an hour to pile branches ,twigs ,and leaves into a comfortable bed .Birds also find it safe to sleep in the trees, but unless they have eggs or young chicks ,they don’t use a nest .They just lock their feet around a branch and hang on .A special tendon（腱）in their legs in automatically tight when they are at rest ,so they won’t let go and fall.

    Dolphins live underwater ,but must come to the surface to breather .Scientists now believe that dolphins may sleep with only half their brain, while the other half stays awake to keep them safe and breathing. Seals also do this ,lying on their sides on the surface of the water with one flipper underwater paddling to keep their noses above the surface. Some ducks may also have this ability, and actually sleep with one eye closed and one eye open.

    根据短文内容，从下面A—F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选。选项中有一项为多余选项。）此题答案写在二卷

    A．Start early
    B．Set up a side business
    C．Build your network
    D．Predict what will happen in the future
    E. Expand your knowledge
    F. Be willing to spend your time and money
    61._______
    Who doesn’t want to have a good future? It’s something everyone desires. The one who determines whether or not you have a good future is you. Don’t wait until something bad happens. Don’t wait until you lose your job. It is you who must take action. Start now while the situation is still good. Why? Because it takes time to build something. Let’s say you want to build an alternative income stream that you can rely on. You can’t build that overnight. Doing that takes time and persistence. If you don’t start early, it might not have been ready by the time you need it.
    62. _______
    It could be difficult to spend your time and money on something that doesn’t give you immediate return. But it’s important that you do that and it is one of the best ways to prepare yourself for the future. Those who are wise always spare some time and money in advance to invest in their future. If you don’t, your progress will be slow and you wouldn’t be ready in time.
    63._________
    I’m sure you’ve heard the advice “ Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.” It’s good advice, but how can you apply if you know only one basket? By expanding your knowledge, you will know what possibilities there are so that you can find new opportunities. Expanding your knowledge can also help you see something you already know in a different light. You can see it from a new perspective. Overall, expanding your knowledge improves your ability to make good decisions.
    64. _______
    Building a side business is one of the best ways to invest in your future. In fact, it’s a favorite of mine. Not only can it help you prepare for unexpected job loss and provide you with an alternative income source, but also it teaches you a lot in the process. You will learn much because you deal with the real world.
    65. ________
    Your network of friends and acquaintances is one of the best assets (资产) you could have. It can inform you of new opportunities. It can also help you find the resources you need. By building your network, you are preparing for a time in the future when you might need help from it. But build your network with right motivation. Don’t build it with the motivation to get something from it.
