Heroic mother cat Lele gave birth to four kittens at home and lived alone for over 50 days in Wuhan, when its owners, a family of seven, were in hospital for treatment of novel coronavirus. In late January, Lele's owner, surnamed Chen, was infected with novel coronavirus and has been in hospital since then. Several days later, Chen's father, and five other family members all tested positive for the virus, leaving pregnant cat mom Lele alone at home.

For fear of cross-infection, Chen didn't ask friends to take care of Lele, but prepared two bags of cat food weighing about 24 pounds and some water at home.

As he gradually recovered in the hospital, worries about Lele, the expectant mother, always haunted him.

Fifty-four days later, when Chen' s family got back home, they were surprised to find Lele had already given birth to four kittens.

The four were healthy and active and have been weaning (断奶) from their mother's. According to Chen, Lele survived on the cat food and water found in a fish pond on the balcony. Since no one cleaned up for such a long time, the cat litter box has gone messy and smelly.

In memory of the special experience, Chen named the four kittens ''Xiaowu'', ''Hanhan'', ''Xiaojia'' and ''Youyou'', which together mean ''Wuhan, fighting'' in Chinese, hoping the city could stay strong and return to normal soon.

Lele's story went viral (迅速传播) on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok, and won over 366,000 likes. A Douyin user commented, "God bless the poor cats! Good luck to you, another netizen commented, ''What a kind family! Please don't abandon pets because of the virus outbreak. ''

1.How did LeLe survive during its owner's absence?

A.By being looked after by Chen's friends. B.By the cat food left and water in a fish pond.

C.With the help of the doctors in the hospital. D.With the help of its four babies.

2.Which of the following is not correct?

A.All the members in Chen's family were not infected with the novel coronavius

B.The birth of the four kittens was an inspiration for Chen's family.

C.Both the cat LeLe and its babies were strong and healthy.

D.LeLe got popular among Chinese netizens.

3.The text mainly tells us___________.

A.how a family took good care of their pet cat.

B.how Wuhan people fought against the novel coronavirus.

C.that a cat saved its owner.

D.that a brave cat gives birth alone when owners in hospital.

The invention of the electric telegraph gave birth to the communications industry.Although Samuel B．Morse succeeded in making the invention useful in 1837，it was not until 1843 that the first important telegraph line was constructed.By 1860 more than 50,000 miles of lines connected people east of the Rockies.The following year，San Francisco was added to the network.

The national telegraph network strengthened the ties between East and West and contributed to the rapid expansion of the railroads by providing an efficient means to monitor schedules and routes.Furthermore，the extension of the telegraph，combined with the invention of the steam－driven rotary printing press by Richard

M．Hoe in 1846，revolutionized the world of journalism.Where the business of news gathering had been dependent upon the mail and on hand－operated presses，the telegraph expanded the amount of information a newspaper could supply and allowed for more timely reporting.The creating of the Associated Press as a central wire service in 1846 marked the arrival of a new era (纪元) in journalism.

1.The main topic of the passage is ________.

A．the history of journalism

B．the origin of the national telegraph

C．how the telegraph network contributed to the expansion of railroads

D．the contributions and development of the telegraph network

2.This passage would most likely be found in a________.

A．U.S. history book                        B．book on trains

C．science textbook                        D．computer magazine
