    In most parts of Britain,the black cat is a symbol of good luck and owning a black cat may bring good luck to the family.But recently,black cats can no longer enjoy so much favor.

    The British Royal for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals（英国防止虐待动物协会）announced a rise in the number of black cats being abandoned by their owners,due to not looking good in selfies（自拍）.According to the RSPCA,more than 70 percent of the cats in its care are black.The biggest reason for that is black cats tend not to photograph as their lighter and brighter-colored fellows with more obvious markings.An RSPCA spokesman said, “This has become a national problem.And we are urging people to never judge a cat by its color but look at its personality instead.”

    The Millwood Cat Rescue Centre has taken in nice black cats in the past two weeks.The founder of the rescue centre said,“We have had a lot of black cats because people don’t like black at the moment.Other look at the black cats and then just say ‘Oh,have you got anything else?’”

    Animal lover Gabriella Fletcher owns a 16-year-old black cat,Susie.She regularly takes selfies with her pet.She said,“It is hard to get a good picture as you can’t really see how beautiful Susie is.She is just as special as any other cat.”

    1.Why are black cats less favored by people?

    A. They are rising in number. B. They don’t bring good luck anymore

    C. They are banned by RSPCA. D. They don’t look good in photos.

    2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 imply?

    A. People want more black cats. B. People want to have something to eat.

    C. People want more pet animals. D. People are unwilling to see so many black cats.

    3.In Gabriella Fletcher’s eyes,black cats are_______.

    A. Disgusting B. Unlucky

    C. Ordinary D. Attractive

    4.Which of the following can be the best title of this text?

    A. Black cats out in “selfies”. B. Black cats abandoned in the UK.

    C. Black cats in need of caring. D. Black cats favored again.

    Dear Andrew,

    How nice to hear from you again!I think it is natural for you not to get used to live there.Here,I have some suggestion for you.

    First of all,you should respect the local customs and try to involve yourself to the natives' lives.Secondly,don't be afraid to communicate with American students and make friends with us. Friendship will bring you happiness.What's more,it was better for you to join more outdoor activities with your friends.Those activities may help you relax and have a fun,that is of great benefit.Finally,mind your own manners and remain modest and honesty when getting along with your friends.

    I sincere hope my advice will help.May you adapt to your new life and enjoy your stay there.

    Yours,

    Li Hua
