Winter is cold and it can be difficult for animals to find food during winter. They get through winter in many ways.
Would you like to go to a warm place for the winter? That’s what migratory (遷徙的) animals do. When the weather starts to get cold, migratory animals like some birds and butterflies fly to a warmer place, and then they come back in spring.
Another good way to get through winter is to sleep through it. Many animals hide and sleep during the winter. Their body temperature drops and hearts beat more slowly. This helps them to save their energy. They do not eat. They live off their fat. They wake up when the weather gets warmer. We call this hibernation (冬眠). Snakes, frogs and bears hibernate in winter.
Many animals stay active in winter and adapt to (適應) the cold weather. Some animals save food in summer and autumn and eat it in winter. This is what squirrels do. Other animals make changes in their bodies or behavior (行為). To keep warm, some animals grow thicker coats in winter. Some animals eat different kinds of food as the seasons change. The red fox eats fruit and insects in the other three seasons, but eats small rodents (嚙齒類動物) in winter. Other animals change colour. The arctic (北極的) fox is brown in summer. Its coat turns white in winter.
How do you live through the winter? Do you wear a thick coat? Do you stay inside? Or do you live in a warm place?

1.____________ animals like some birds and butterflies go to warmer places when the weather starts to get cold, and they come back ____________.

Many expressions that we use in American English come from novels. Today we will look at some of them from Lewis Carroll’s famous novel “Alice in Wonderland” in detail.
The story is about a young girl falling down a rabbit hole. When she finally lands, she finds herself in a strange world and meets some strange characters.
The first character Alice meets is the White Rabbit, who runs past her and says some strange words. Alice runs after him, and that is where her adventures begin.
In English, chasing a white rabbit means chasing an impossible clue and finding yourself in a misleading situation.
Then, as she runs after the rabbit, she falls down the rabbit hole into Wonderland.
To fall down the rabbit hole can mean to enter a situation which makes people feel puzzled. However, usually we use this expression to mean we get interested in something to the point of distractions(分神). It often happens by accident and is about something not that meaningful.
Later in the story, Alice meets the March Hare and the Hatter at a crazy tea party. Hares have long been thought to behave excitedly in March, which is their mating(交配)season. Scientifically, this may not be true. But to be mad as a March Hare means that someone is completely mad, or crazy. The expression mad as a Hatter also means to be completely crazy. Of the two, mad as a Hatter is more common.
Near the end of the story, Alice meets the Queen of Hearts. A woman who is called a Queen of Hearts likes controlling others and always tries to control everything and everyone around her.
1.Which of the following situations best fits the expression “to fall down a rabbit hole”?
A.When Jack was sitting in the study, he got bored with the homework and felt sleepy.
B.When Sue turned On the TV, she chose to watch her favourite programme as usual.
C.When Jim was looking for a sport book online, he lost himself in reports on superstars.
D.When Lily was thinking about how to solve a math problem, she came up with a good idea.
2.According to the passage, the expression “to be mad as a March Hare” .
A.describes how hares behave in March
B.shows hares’ characteristics in a funny way
C.is used more often than the expression mad as a Hatter
D.has the same meaning as the expression mad as a Hatter
3.Which of the following characters wants others to obey his or her orders in every situation?
A.Alice. B.The March Hare. C.The Hatter. D.The Queen of Hearts.
4.The writer mainly wants to ________in this passage.
A.introduce a famous novel and its language style
B.introduce a famous writer Lewis Carroll and his novels
C.explain some English expressions from a famous novel
D.explain why many expressions in English come from novels
