[00:01.080] --- lesson 9 Flying cats
[00:05.600] --- Listen to the tape then answer the question below.
[00:11.240] --- How do cats try to protect themselves when falling from great heights?
[00:18.520] Cats never fail to fascinate human beings.
[00:22.400] They can be friendly and affectionate towards humans, but they lead mysterious lives of their own as well.
[00:30.240] They never become submissive like dogs and horses.
[00:34.600] As a result, humans have learned to respect feline independence.
[00:40.000] Most cats remain suspicious of humans all their lives.
[00:45.160] One of the things that fascinates us most about cats is the popular belief that they have nine lives.
[00:52.960] Apparently, there is a good deal of truth in this idea.
[00:56.800] A cat's ability to survive falls is based on fact.
[01:01.760] Recently the New York Animal Medical Center made a study of 132 cats over a period of five months.
[01:11.400] All these cats had one experience in common: they had fallen off high buildings, yet only eight of them died from shock or injuries.
[01:21.600] Of course, New York is the ideal place for such an interesting study, because there is no shortage of tall buildings.
[01:30.320] There are plenty of high-rise windowsills to fall from!
[01:34.360] One cat, Sabrina, fell 32 storeys, yet only suffered from a broken tooth.
[01:42.960] 'Cats behave like well-trained paratroopers.' a doctor said.^“
[01:47.640] It seems that the further cats fall, the less they are likely to injure themselves.
[01:53.960] In a long drop, they reach speeds of 60 miles an hour and more.
[01:59.560] At high speeds, falling cats have time to relax.
[02:04.120] They stretch out their legs like flying squirrels.
[02:07.680] This increases their air-resistance and reduces the shock of impact when they hit the ground.

[00:05.600] ^听录音,然后回答以下问题。
[00:11.240]
[00:18.520] ^猫总能引起人们的极大兴趣。
[00:22.400] ^它们可以对人友好,充满柔情。但是,它们又有自己神秘的生活方式。
[00:30.240] ^它们从不像狗和马一样变得那么顺从。
[00:34.600] ^结果是人们已经学会尊重猫的独立性。
[00:40.000] ^在它们的一生中,大多数猫都对人存有戒心。
[00:45.160] ^最使我们感兴趣的一件事情就是一种通俗的信念--猫有九条命。
[00:52.960] ^显然,这种说法里面包含着许多真实性。
[00:56.800] ^猫在跌落时能够大难不死是有事实作为依据的。
[01:01.760] ^最近,纽约动物医疗中心对132只猫进行了为期5个月的综合研究。
[01:11.400] ^所有这些猫都有一个共同的经历:它们都曾从高层建筑上摔下来过,但只有其中的8只猫死于震荡或跌伤。
[01:21.600] ^当然,纽约是进行这种有趣的试验的一个理想的地方,因为那里根本不缺乏高楼大厦,
[01:30.320] ^有的是高层的窗槛从上往下坠落。
[01:34.360] ^有一只叫萨伯瑞娜的猫从32层楼上掉下来,但只摔断了一颗牙。
[01:42.960] 猫就像训练有素的跳伞队员,” 一位医生说。
[01:47.640] ^看起来,猫跌落的距离越长,它们就越不会伤害自己。
[01:53.960] ^在一个长长的跌落过程中,它们可以达到每小时60英里甚至更快的速度。
[01:59.560] ^在高速下落中,猫有时间放松自己。
[02:04.120] ^它们伸展四肢,就像飞行中的松鼠一样。
[02:07.680] ^这样就加大了空气阻力,并减小了它们着地时冲击力带来的震动。
