From cottages surrounded by impressive gardens to days spent exploring sandy beaches and deep woods filled
with wildlife, in My Family and Other Animals, English writer Gerald Durrell provided a vivid account of his
family’s time on the Greek island of Corfu in the 1930s.
Come for the arresting descriptions of Corfu landscapes and stay for Durrell’s laugh-out-loud tales of his
unusual family. This book, Durrell wrote humorously in the introduction, “was intended to be a nostalgic( 怀 旧
的)account of natural history, but in the first few pages, I made the mistake of introducing my family. ”
Durrell, later known for his zoo keeping and the preservation of wildlife, was just a child during his family’s
five-year stay in Corfu. He is 10-year-old Gerry in the book — curious, passionate about animals and a detailed
storyteller of his strange family: his imaginative elder brother Larry with his literary ambitions, lovestruck sister
Margo, sporty brother Leslie and his ever-calm, loving mother.
Durrell’s attention to detail is what makes the book so winning, with every sight, sound and smell of the island
brought to life. One minute you’ll be laughing as Larry’s clever literary friends walk down to the daffodil-yellow
cottage, the next you’ll be catching your breath as Durrell describes swimming at night in the Ionian Sea: “Lying on
my back in the silky water, staring at the sky, only moving my hands and feet slightly, I was looking at the Milky
Way stretching like a silk scarf across the sky and wondering how many stars it contained. ”
My Family and Other Animals is quite difficult to classify, being one part travel, one part autobiography, one
part natural history, and one part comedy, with a thread of descriptive language running throughout that sometimes
raises it nearly to poetry.
As a real delight to read, it’s the perfect literary escapism for any adult or older teenager who is currently
walking down a tough road in life.
4. Which word best describes Durrell’s life in Corfu?
A. Risky. B. Busy. C. Tough. D. Diverse.
5. What does the underlined sentence mean in paragraph 2?
A. I introduced my family by mistake.
B. I shouldn’t have introduced my family.
C. I couldn’t help introducing my family.
D. I gave wrong information about my family.
6. What are paragraph 4 and 5 mainly about?
A. The book’s writing feature.
B. Durrell’s rich imagination.
C
.
Some interesting plots of the book.
D. Some vivid descriptions of the island.
7. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To share an experience.
B. To recommend a book.
C. To introduce a writing style.
D. To describe an unusual place.
C
When put to tests, bees have long proved that they’ve got a lot more to offer than pollinating ( 授粉) , making
honey and being loyal to a queen. The hard-working insects can change their behavior when things seem difficult,
and now some scientists find there is proof that they also like to play.
Scientists from Queen Mary University of London performed an experiment, in which they set up a container
that allowed bees to travel from their nest to a feeding area. But along the way, the bees could choose to pass
through a separate section with some small wooden balls. Over 18 days, the scientists watched as the bees “went
out of their way to roll wooden balls repeatedly, despite no apparent incentive (刺激)to do so. ”
Earlier studies have shown that the black and yellow bugs are willing to learn new tricks in exchange for food
or other rewards. In this case, to get rid of external factors, scientists made sure the bees had adapted to their new
home and that their environment was stress-free.
The finding suggests that like humans, insects also interact with objects as a form of play. Also similar to
people, younger bees seem to be more playful than adult bees. “This research provides a strong indication that
