历年英语四级听力真题短文8
A Savannah cat is a cross breed between the domestic cat and a medium-sized wild African cat called the Serval. The unusual cross became popular among breeders at the end of the 1990s, and in 2001 the International Cat Association accepted it as a new registered breed. The Savannahs are tall and slim and can weigh up to 9.1 kilograms, making them one of the largest breeds of cats that people can own. They have a spotted coat similar to that of many types of wild cats and their ears are very large. They are also commonly compared to dogs in their loyalty, and can be trained to walk on a lead and to fetch. An often-noted characteristic of the Savannah is its jumping ability. They are known to jump on top of doors and high cabinets. Some can leap about 2.5 meters high from a standing position. Cats are typically known for being very inquisitive and so are the Savannahs. They often learn how to open doors and cupboards. Many Savannah cats do not fear water and will play with or even dive into water. Some owners even shower with their Savannah cats. Presenting a water bowl to a Savannah may also prove a challenge, as some will promptly begin to bat all the water out of the bowl until it is empty using their front paws.
萨凡纳猫是家猫和中型非洲野猫薮猫的杂交品种。这种不寻常的杂交品种在20世纪90年代末开始在饲养员中流行起来，2001年国际猫协会将其作为一个新的注册品种接受。萨凡纳猫又高又瘦，体重可达9.1公斤，是人类所能拥有的猫科动物之一。它们的皮毛呈斑点状，类似于许多种类的野猫，而且它们的耳朵非常大。在忠诚方面，它们也常被比作狗，并且可以被训练成走在前头、取拿东西。萨凡纳猫的一个常见特征是跳跃能力。众所周知，猫能跳到门和高橱柜上。许多萨凡纳猫不怕水，它们会和水玩耍，甚至跳进水里。一些主人甚至会和他们的萨凡纳猫一起洗澡。萨凡纳猫看到一只水碗也可能是一个挑战，因为有些萨凡纳猫会迅速地用前爪把舀碗里的水直到舀干。
