44、derstand their environment well.

Climbing practice is good for cats; it can improve their strength and flexibility and teach them an important defensive skill. To prevent them from practicing indoor climbing of your furniture,
47、however, owners may wish to buy a carpeted cat tree for climbing. If a cat has gotten up a tree and cannot get down, the owner may wonder why its remarkable climbing abilities only work in one direction. A cats claws curve (弯曲) inward, allowing it to take hold of surfaces while going up head first.
48、Unfortunately, this useful climbing curve does nothing to help the animal get back down again. Eventually, most trapped kittens will either jump out of the tree or realize that they can get down by going tail first. Either way, a cat up a tree is usually nothing to panic about unless it is injured; they are intelligent animals and will find out how to get down sooner or later.语篇 解 读 ：本 文 为 说 明 文 。猫 儿 为 什 么 总 喜 爱 爬 树 呢 ？ 本 文 对 此 进 行 了 分 析 。28In most cases, cats climb trees in order to _.Ahave fun Bseek foodCdefend themselves Dplease their owners解析：选 C
