Why Dogs Bury Their Favorite BonesYou may find it crazy that your dog buries his favorite bone or chew toy, only to dig it up a day or two later, but there is actually a reason behind it-it is simply in their nature. For thousands of years, dogs have buried their bones. The practice itself started long before dogs were even pets when they had to bury bones to survive.When dogs lived in the wild, sometimes food was scarce. If they were able to find food dogs became very protective of it. Sometimes they would have more bones than they could eat for one meal. To keep other dogs and animals from stealing their bones, dogs would bury them in the ground. When it was time for the next meal, they would dig up their bones and enjoy them again. This would continue until the bones were gone.Even though most dogs have plenty of food to eat today, their instincts still tell them to bury their bones and favorite toys. They do this to keep other dogs and animals from stealing them, just like their ancestors did. Some dogs keep at least two bones buried at once. When they want to dig up one, they will by one more. This may leave a backyard full of holes and bones.How do dogs decide where to buy their bones? A dog cannot buy a bone just anywhere. He must first find the perfect spot. This involves using his nose to find a spot that is free from other dogs and animals. Often it is near a tree or a large rock, but it could be anywhere in the yard. Once the dog finds the perfect spot, he uses his front paws to dig a hole drops the bone in and covers up the hole to protect his treasure.1. Dogs bury their favorite bones or chew toys by nature.A.

2025年高等教育自学考试自考《英语二》复习试卷与参考答案一、阅读判断（共10分）First QuestionPassage:The Impact of Social Media on CommunicationSocial media has become an integral part of our daily lives, changing the way we communicate and interact with one another. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram have billions of users worldwide, making them powerful tools for personal expression and social engagement. However, the rise of social media also brings challenges and concerns.One of the most significant impacts of social media is the speed at which information can be shared. News and personal updates spread rapidly, often reaching a global audience within seconds. This immediacy has transformed how people stay informed and has given individuals a voice that can reach far beyond their immediate circles.Despite these benefits, there are drawbacks to the fast-paced nature of social media communication. Misinformation can spread just as quickly as accurate information, leading to confusion and sometimes harm. Additionally,the pressure to maintain an active online presence can lead to increased stress and anxiety, particularly among younger users.Another aspect to consider is the effect social media has on face-to-face interactions. Some argue that reliance on digital platforms for communication can weaken interpersonal skills and reduce the quality of real-life relationships. However, others believe that social media enhances connections by allowing people to stay in touch regardless of physical distance.In conclusion, while social media offers many opportunities for communication and connection, it also presents challenges that need to be addressed. Balancing the benefits and risks of social media use is crucial for maintaining healthy communication practices.Questions:1、Social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter are used by millions of people around the world.•Answer: True2、The rapid spread of information on social media always leads to positive outcomes.•Answer: False3、Younger users are less likely to experience stress from social media than older users.•Answer: False4、Some experts believe that social media can negatively affect face-to-face communication skills.•Answer: True5、Maintaining a balance between the advantages and disadvantages of social media isimportant for effective communication.•Answer: True第二题Read the following passage and then answer the questions below.In recent years, the importance of environmental protection has been increasingly recognized by people worldwide. Governments and organizations are implementing various measures to reduce pollution and promote sustainable development. One of the most significant steps taken is the adoption of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, to reduce reliance on fossil fuels.The transition to renewable energy has several benefits. Firstly, it helps in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, which are a major contributor to global warming. Secondly, renewable energy sources are abundant and can be replenished naturally, making them more sustainable than fossil fuels. Lastly, the use of renewable energy can create new job opportunities and stimulate economic growth in the renewable energy sector.Despite these benefits, the shift to renewable energy has faced several challenges. One of the main challenges is the high initial investment required for the installation of renewable energy infrastructure. Additionally, some renewable energy sources, like solar and wind power, are not always available when they are most needed, leading to issues of intermittency. Finally, there is a lack of awareness and education about renewable energy among the general public, which can hinder the acceptance and adoption of these technologies.1、The adoption of renewable energy sources is a significant step towardsenvironmental protection.A.

It involves analyzing information to form a reasoned judgment. In education, it goes beyond memorization and encourages students to think deeply about what they learn. When students engage in critical thinking, they question assumptions, evaluate arguments, and solve problems systematically. This skill is essential not only for academic success but also for navigating the complexities of everyday life.In the modern world, where information is abundant and easily accessible,the ability to discern reliable sources from unreliable ones is more important than ever. Critical thinking enables individuals to sift through vast amounts of data and make informed decisions. Educators play a crucial role in fostering this skill by designing curricula that challenge students to think critically and by modeling critical thinking behaviors themselves.Moreover, critical thinking is closely linked with creativity and innovation. By questioning existing paradigms and exploring new possibilities, individuals can come up with innovative solutions to complex problems. This mindset is vital for progress in all fields, including science, technology, business, and the arts.To develop critical thinking skills, students must practice questioning, reasoning, and reflecting on their own beliefs and those of others. They should be encouraged to engage in debates, discussions, and problem-solving activities that require them to justify their viewpoints with evidence. Ultimately, the goal is to create a generation of thinkers who are capable of contributing positively to society.Cloze Test Questions:Fill in each blank with one of the words provided in the box below: •encourage•abundant•discern•navigate•foster1.In the modern world, where information is__________and easily accessible, the ability to discern reliable sources from unreliable ones is more important than ever.2.Critical thinking enables individuals to sift through vast amounts of data and make informed decisions, which helps them to__________the complexities of everyday life.cators play a crucial role in__________this skill by designing curricula that challenge students to think critically.4.To develop critical thinking skills, students must practice questioning, reasoning, and reflecting on their own beliefs and those of others, which should be __________d.5.The goal is to create a generation of thinkers who are capable of contributing positively to society, and this requires educatorsto__________such practices in the classroom.Answers:1.abundant2.navigate3.foster4.encouraged5.encourageThis cloze test is designed to assess the student’s understanding of the text and their ability to use context clues to determine the most appropriate word to fill in the blanks.
