两只猫在校园里吵架遭围观，为何学生们试图劝架都劝不住？

动物也有自己的情感世界，面对同类，他们仍然也可以表达自己的喜怒哀乐。就好比离我们生活最贴近的动物猫狗而言，这种诠释来得更为直接。

近日网络媒体曝光了在山西某高校校园之内，当时有一对猫咪不知因何事而在不停的争吵，双方也对此闹得不可开交，透过网传的视频显示，一对猫咪正在现场面对面的不停的哀嚎着，声嘶力绝当中也是透出了更多的愤怒，两个猫咪之间任何一个都试图以最大的气势压住对方，愤怒的猫咪相互眼睁睁的盯着对方，仍然没有和好的态势，当然这一幕也被校园内的学生亲眼目睹，他们也纷纷驻足观看，毕竟动物之间的恩恩怨怨，人类确实很难去化解，即便当时也有同学试图劝架，但终究也是无功而返。

其实我们也都知道，像猫狗这种动物，它们往往吵架就试图提高自己的声音，其实这种态势就意图要压住对方的气势，警告对方，而猫咪之间之所以会展开吵架甚至打架，无异乎就是为了能够争夺自己的领地配偶以及护食等等，就好比我们的人类一样，假如自己的利益受到他人的侵犯，自己也会下意识的向对方发出警告乃至反抗。

其实猫咪也是一种独居的动物，虽然猫咪之间贵为同类，但是陌生猫之间在彼此瞬间的接触，难免会对对方产生隔阂，只要对方没有侵犯到自己的安全，一般正常情况之下，猫咪都不会因此向对方作出警告，当然面对猫星人如此种种举动，身为人类的我们也只能扮演吃瓜群众的角色在旁边细细的观看，在不了解猫语言的前提之下去干涉他们的恩怨，不但未能够很好的调解它们，反而会招致更多的麻烦。

3 可爱的小猫作文怎么写

邻居家有一只可爱的小猫，全身雪白雪白的，摸起来很柔软，当它蜷成团时，远远望去就像一个白绒球。在它圆圆的脸上有一双像宝石一样的眼睛。它的鼻子非常灵敏，一闻到鱼腥味就馋得喵喵叫。小嘴一张开就露出排列整齐的牙齿，十分锋利。嘴边长着几根胡须，胡须一翘一翘的真可爱。它的耳朵尖尖的，像两个三角形。洁白的尾巴动起来像条小蛇，真有趣！

小猫不但样子可爱，而且吃相也很可爱。当它发现老鼠，立刻趴下，耐心等待。当老鼠靠近时，它飞快地猛扑上去，一下把老鼠咬住，用尖锐的牙齿四要撕咬，津津有味地吃了起来。

小猫不但吃相可爱，玩耍也非常可爱。有一天，我拿着毛先球到邻居家观察小猫。我把毛线绒球放在地上，把小猫引出来。小猫走上前去，小心地碰了几下毛线球，毛线球动了，吓得小猫赶紧后退几步，喵喵地叫着，好像在说；这是什么怪物呀？过了一会，它才慢慢地向前走。小猫推着毛线球跑来跑去，弄的院子里枝断花落，直到跑累了，它才放下毛线球。

我真喜欢邻居家的这只又调皮又可爱的小白猫！

J 关于猫英语故事

Cats never fail to fascinate human beings They can be friendly and affectionate towards humans, but they lead mysterious lives of their own as well They never bee submissive like dogs and horses As a result, humans have learned to respect feline independence Most cats remain suspicious of humans all their lives One of the things that fascinates us most about cats is the popular belief that they have nine lives Apparently, there is a good deal of truth in this idea A cat's ability to survive falls is based on fact

Recently the New York Animal Medical Center made a study of 132 cats over a period of five months All these cats had one experience in mon: they had fallen off high buildings, yet only eight of them died from shock or injuries Of course, New York is the ideal place for such an interesting study, because there is no shortage of tall buildings There are plenty of high-rise windowsills to fall from! One cat, Sabrina, fell 32 storeys, yet only suffered from a broken tooth 'Cats behave like well-trained paratroopers' a doctor said It seems that the further cats fall, the less they are likely to injure themselves In a long drop, they reach speeds of 60 miles an hour and more At high speeds, falling cats have time to relax They stretch out their legs like flying squirrels This increases their air-resistance and reces the shock of impact when they hit the ground

New words and expressions 生词和短语

air-resistance

n 空气阻力

impact

n 冲击力

参考译文

猫总能引起人们的极大兴趣。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。它们从不像狗和马一样变得那么顺从。结果是人们已经学会尊重猫的独立性。在它们的一生中，大多数猫都对人存有戒心。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。显然，这种说法里面包含着许多真实性。猫在跌落时能够大难不死是有事实作为依据的。

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。所有这些猫有一个共同的经历：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。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，有的是高层的窗槛从上往下坠落。有一只叫萨伯瑞的猫从32层楼上掉下来，但只摔断一颗牙。“猫就像训练有素的跳伞队员，” 一位医生说。看起来，猫跌落的距离越长，它们就越不会伤害自己。在一个长长的跌落过程中，它们可以达到每小时60里甚至更快的速度。在高速下落中，猫有时间放松自己。它们伸展四肢，就像飞行中的松鼠一样。这样就加大了空气阻力，并减少了它们着地时冲击力带来的震动。

Mouse and Cat in Partnership

英汉对照

A certain cat had made the acquaintance of a mouse, and had said so much to her about the great love and friendship she felt for her, that at length the mouse agreed that they should live and keep house together But we must make a provision for winter, or else we shall suffer from hunger, said the cat, and you, little mouse, cannot venture everywhere, or you will be caught in a trap some day The good advice was followed, and a pot of fat was bought, but they did not know where to put it At length, after much consideration, the cat said, I know no place where it will be better stored up than in the church, for no one dares take anything away from there We will set it beneath the altar, and not touch it until we are really in need of it So the pot was placed in safety, but it was not long before the cat had a great yearning for it, and said to the mouse, I want to tell you something, little mouse, my cousin has brought a little son into the world, and has asked me to be godmother, he is white with brown spots, and I am to hold him over the font at the christening Let me go out to-day, and you look after the house by yourself Yes, yes, answered the mouse, by all means go, and if you get anything very good to eat, think of me, I should like a drop of sweet red christening wine myself All this, however, was untrue, the cat had no cousin, and had not been asked to be godmother She went straight to the church, stole to the pot of fat, began to lick at it, and licked the top of the fat off Then she took a walk upon the roofs of the town, looked out for opportunities, and then stretched herself in the sun, and licked her lips whenever she thought of the pot of fat, and not until it was evening did she return home Well, here you are again, said the mouse, no doubt you have had a merry day All went off well, answered the cat What name did they give the child Top off, said the cat quite coolly Top off, cried the mouse, that is a very odd and uncommon name, is it a usual one in your family What does that matter, said the cat, it is no worse than crumb-stealer, as your God-children are called

Before long the cat was seized by another fit of yearning She said to the mouse, you must do me a favor, and once more manage the house for a day alone I am again asked to be godmother, and, as the child has a white ring round its neck, I cannot refuse The good mouse consented, but the cat crept behind the town walls to the church, and devoured half the pot of fat Nothing ever seems so good as what one keeps to oneself, said she, and was quite satisfied with her day's work When she went home the mouse inquired, and what was this child christened Half-done, answered the cat Half-done What are you saying I never heard the name in my life, I'll wager anything it is not in the calendar

The cat's mouth soon began to water for some more licking All good things go in threes, said she, I am asked to stand godmother again The child is quite black, only it has white paws, but with that exception, it has not a single white hair on its whole body, this only happens once every few years, you will let me go, won't you Top-off Half-done, answered the mouse, they are such odd names, they make me very thoughtful You sit at home, said the cat, in your dark-gray fur coat and long tail, and are filled with fancies, that's because you do not go out in the daytime During the cat's absence the mouse cleaned the house, and put it in order but the greedy cat entirely emptied the pot of fat When everything is eaten up one has some peace, said she to herself, and well filled and fat she did not return home till night The mouse at once asked what name had been given to the third child It will not please you more than the others, said the cat He is called all-gone All-gone, cried the mouse, that is the most suspicious name of all I have never seen it in print All-gone, what can that mean, and she shook her head, curled herself up, and lay down to sleep

From this time forth no one invited the cat to be godmother, but when the winter had come and there was no longer anything to be found outside, the mouse thought of their provision, and said, come cat, we will go to our pot of fat which we have stored up for ourselves - we shall enjoy that Yes, answered the cat, you will enjoy it as much as you would enjoy sticking that dainty tongue of yours out of the window They set out on their way, but when they arrived, the pot of fat certainly was still in its place, but it was empty Alas, said the mouse, now I see what has happened, now it comes to light You are a true friend You have devoured all when you were standing godmother First top off then half done, then - Will you hold your tongue, cried the cat, one word more and I will eat you too All gone was already on the poor mouse's lips, scarcely had she spoken it before the cat sprang on her, seized her, and swallowed her down Verily, that is the way of the world

有一只猫认识了一只老鼠，便对它大谈特谈自己是多么喜欢老鼠，原意和它交朋友，弄得老鼠终于同意和猫住在一起，共同生活。“我们得准备过冬的东西了，不然我们到冬天会挨饿的，”猫说，“至于你嘛，我的小老鼠，哪里也不要去，我真怕你会被什么老鼠夹子夹住。”老鼠接受了猫的好建议，于是它们买来了一罐猪油，然而两个人都不知道该把猪油放在什么地方。它们左思考右思考，最后猫说：“我觉得这猪油放在教堂里是再合适不过的了，因为谁也不敢偷教堂里的东西。我们把猪油藏在祭坛下，不到万不得已的时候决不动它。”猪油罐就这样被放到了安全的地方。可是没过多久，猫开始想吃猪油了，便对老鼠说：“小老鼠，我想跟你说点事。我的表姐刚刚生了一个小宝宝，还请我当小宝贝的教母。那小宝贝全身雪白，带着一些褐色的斑点。我要抱着它去接受洗礼，所以今天要出去一下，你一个人在家看家，好吗？”“好的，好的，”老鼠说，“你尽管去吧。要是有什么好吃的东西，千万要记着我。我很想尝一点洗礼时用的红葡萄酒。”这一切当然都不是真的，因为猫并没有表姐，也没有被请去当教母。它直接去了教堂，偷偷爬到猪油罐那里，开始舔呀舔，把顶上一层猪油舔得精光。然后，它在城里的屋顶上散了散步，想碰碰别的运气；接着便躺下来晒太阳。每当想起那罐猪油，它都情不自禁地舔舔自己的嘴唇。它一直等到天黑才回家。“啊，你终于回来了，”老鼠说，“这一天肯定过得很开心吧？”“一切顺利。”猫答道。“你们给那孩子起了什么名字？”“没了顶层！”猫冷淡地说。“没了顶层！”老鼠叫了起来，“这个古怪的名字可不多见。你们家常取这样的名字吗？”“那有什么？”猫说,“不比你的那些教子叫什么'偷面包屑的'更糟吧？”

没过多久，猫又想吃猪油了。它对老鼠说：“你得帮我一个忙，再一个人看一次家。又有人请我当教母了，而且这个孩子的脖子上有一道白圈，我实在无法推辞。”好心的老鼠同意了。猫从城墙后面溜进教堂，一口气吃掉了半罐猪油。“什么东西也没有比吃到自己的嘴里更好，”它说，心里对这一天的收获感到很满意。等它到家时，老鼠问道：“这个孩子起的什么名字呀？”“吃了一半，”猫回答。“吃了一半！你在说什么呀？我长这么大了还从来没有听说过这样的名字。我敢打赌，就是年历上也不会有这样的名字！”

不久，猫的嘴巴又开始流口水了，想再去舔一舔猪油。“好事成三嘛，”它说，“又有人请我去当教母了。这个孩子除了爪子是白色的，浑身黑黝黝的，连一根白毛都没有。这是好几年才会碰上的事情，你当然会同意我去的，是吗？”“没了顶层！吃了一半！”老鼠回答，“这些名字真怪！我实在弄不明白。”“你白天又不出门，”猫说，“整天穿着深灰色的皮袄，拖着长长的尾巴，坐在家里胡思乱想，当然弄不明白啦！”趁着猫不在家，老鼠把屋子打扫了一下，把东西放得整整齐齐。可是那只馋猫把剩下的猪油吃得干干净净。“人只有把东西吃得干干净净才能放心，”它自言自语地说。它吃得饱饱的，直到天黑了才挺着圆圆的肚子回家。老鼠看到它回来，立刻问它这第三个孩子起的什么名字。“你也不会喜欢这个名字，”猫说，“它叫'吃得精光'。”“吃得精光！”老鼠叫了起来，“这个名字太令人费解了！我从来没有在书上见过。吃得精光！这是什么意思呢？”它摇摇头，蜷缩起身子，躺下睡着了。

从此，猫再也没有被邀请去当教母。可是冬天来到了，外面再也找不到任何吃的东西。老鼠想到了它们准备的过冬的东西，便说：“走吧，猫！我们去取储存的猪油吧。我们可以美美吃上一顿。”“是的，”猫回答，“那准会把你美得就像把你那尖尖的舌头伸到窗外去喝西北风一样。”它们动身去教堂，可它们到达那里后，看到猪油罐倒是还在那里，里面却是空的。“天哪！”老鼠说，“我现在终于明白是怎么回事了！你可真是个好朋友！你在去当什么教母的时候，把这猪油全吃光了！先是吃了顶上一层，然后吃了一半，最后……”“你给我住嘴！”猫嚷道，“你要是再罗嗦，我连你也吃了！”“……吃得精光，”可怜的老鼠脱口而出。它刚把话说完，猫就扑到了它的身上，抓住它，把它吞进了肚子。这世界就是这样！
