How does a young dog or cat get to know a new home? The animal uses its nose. Right away it smells its new places. Then it makes wider and wider circles, smelling all the time. Before long it can find its way home very well, even in the dark. It simply follows something it knows well.
Stories happen about animals who found their way across land they had never smelled before. Take the case of Smoky, a small white cat. Smoky had some funny red hair around its right ear. One day Smoky and his owner began a long journey. They were moving from Oklahoma to Tennessee. When they were just eighteen miles from their Oklahoma home, Smoky jumped out of the car. Then he found his way back to the old house. There he wandered around outside for many days. Finally he disappeared.
A year later Smoky meowed at the door of a house in Tennessee. A man opened the door. “Is that you, Smoky?” he said in surprise. At first he couldn’t believe it. Then he saw the red hair around its right ear. It was Smoky!

Can dogs and cats get along well in the same home? People are thinking about getting a dog for their cat as a friend, but they are worried about that the dog and the cat will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog, and if they are introduced when they are still young（less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs）, it is possible that the two pets will get along swimmingly. In two-thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship（关系）.
However, there was something unfriendly between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression（侵略, 好斗）and fighting were found in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different. For example, when a cat turns its head away, it means aggression. while a dog doing the same means submission（顺从）.
In homes with cats and dogs living in peace, researchers found a surprising behavior（行为）. They are learning how to talk each other’s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk "Dog", and dogs can learn how to talk"Cat".
The interesting thing is that both cats and dogs seem to become smarter. They can learn to read each other's body languages, suggesting that the two may have more in common（共同的）than was expected（预料）. If they understand each other's body language very well, cats and dogs can play together, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa.
The importance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond（超过）pets—to people who don't get along well, including neighbours, workmates at work, and even countries. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.
1.The underlined word swimmingly in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.
A.早早地 B.主要地 C.迅速地 D.顺畅地
2.Some cats and dogs may fight when ______.
A.they are cold to each other B.they look away from each other
C.they can't understand each other's body languages well D.they are introduced at an early age
3.What can people find surprising about cats and dogs?
A.They eat and sleep together. B.They watch each other's behaviors.
C.They learn to speak each other's language. D.They know something from each other's voices.
4.In Paragraph 4 we can learn that cats and dogs ______.
A.have common interests B.are less different than was thought
C.have a common body language D.are not so smart as was expected
5.What can we learn from cats and dogs?
A.We should learn to get along well with others. B.We should know more about animals.
