第四部分 阅读理解（10分）
A
There are many kinds of tigers all over the world, and the largest tiger is Northeast Tiger. Most Northeast Tigers live in the northeast of China, like Heilongjiang Province and Jilin Province. Because there are many forests and mountains, the tigers usually like living there. In the forests and mountains, there are fewer people getting out and coming in. So the tigers are very free. They can run after each other, catch and eat some small animals, like rabbits and deer.
The Northeast Tigers are different from the ordinary tigers. For example, the Northeast Tigers can swim very well, but can’t climb the trees. The Northeast Tigers’ hearing is the best, and no matter how low the sound is, they can hear it.
As the number of the tigers becomes smaller and smaller, we should protect the tigers as well as we can from now on.
( )1.Most Northeast Tiger enjoy living ____________.
A. in the grass fields and by the rivers B. in the forests and mountains
C. in the deserts and on the hills D. on the farmlands and big trees
( )2.In the forests and mountains there are fewer people getting out and coming in because _______.
A. tigers are dangerous to people B. they are busy working
C. they don’t like tigers at all D. they have no food for tigers
( )3.The small animals are afraid of tigers ______________.
A. to catch them for dinners B. to leave them for long time
C. not to live with them D. to hear them playing
( )4.The underlined words “run after” means _______________.
A.尾随 B. 追逐 C.追求 D. 伺候
( )5.Which of the followings about Northeast Tigers is true?
