Can you beatbox?
Have you ever seen someone make all sorts of drum (鼓) beats and musical rhythms (节奏) with nothing more than his or her voice? That's called beatboxing! It's a form of vocal percussion (人声打击乐) using only one's mouth, lips, tongue and voice.
Beatboxing is a big part of modern hip hop culture. Besides drum sounds, beatboxing can be used to sing, imitate (模仿) a record player and make sounds like different musical instruments.
Although the modern form of beatboxing got its start in the 1980s, using your voice to imitate percussion sounds has been popular for a long, long time. Historians believe people in India and China developed their own forms of vocal art several thousand years ago.
Beatboxing as we know it today — sometimes called human beatboxing — became popular in the early 1980s. Beatboxing pioneers included Doug E. Fresh, who said he was the first “human beatbox,” Swifty, Buffy and Wise.
Besides their voices and mouths, some beatboxers use their hands and other parts of their bodies to create more different rhythms. The term “beatboxing” came from the fact that early beatboxing tried to imitate the first drum machines, which were called beatboxes at the time.
Today, beatboxing is popular all over the world. Many countries have their own beatboxing organizations that organize national beatboxing competitions. There are also worldwide beatboxing competitions held internationally each year.
The popularity of beatboxing has also led some people to organize large beatboxing ensembles (合奏) in order to set a world record. The new Guinness World Record for the largest human beatbox ensemble is 6,430 people set in Hung Kong, on 26 June 2017!

维也纳(Vienna),位于多瑙河畔,是奥地利的首都和最大的城市,也是欧洲主要的文化中心,被誉为“世界音乐之都”。无数音乐家曾在维也纳学习、生活和投身音乐创作,其中包括维也纳古典乐派的三位杰出代表:海顿、莫扎特和贝多芬,还有李斯特、莱哈尔、布鲁克纳、马勒、格鲁克等。
Joseph Haydn (1732~1809 ) was an Austrian composer① and is known as② “the father of the symphony③”. Other composers had written symphonies before Haydn, but he changed the symphony into④ a long piece for a large orchestra⑤.
He was born in a village in Austria, the son of a peasant⑥【1】. He had a beautiful singing voice⑦. After studying music in Vienna, Haydn went to work at the court⑧ of a prince⑨ in eastern Austria, where he became director⑩ of music.【2】 Having worked there for 30 years, Haydn moved to London, where he was very successful.【3】
【1】the son of a peasant作He的同位语,起补充说明的作用。
【2】After studying... Vienna在句中作时间状语。where he became... music为where引导的非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词eastern Austria, where可换成in which。
【3】Having worked... years为现在分词的完成式,在句中作状语,强调worked这一动作发生在moved表示的动作之前。where he was very successful为where引导的非限制性定语从句,where可换成in which。
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart(1756~1791) was a composer,possibly the greatest musical? genius? of all time?. He only lived 35 years and he composed? more than 600 pieces of music.
Mozart was born in Salzburg, Austria. His father Leopold was a musician and orchestra conductor?. Wolfgang had musical talent? from a very early age. He learned to play the harpsichord? when he was four, he started composing music when he was five, and when he was six, he played the harpsichord in a concert for the Empress of Austria.【4】
【4】本句为and连接的并列复合句,三个分句中的when he was four, when he was five和when he was six都是when引导的时间状语从句。
By the time he was 14, Mozart had composed many pieces for the harpsichord, piano and violin, as well as? for orchestras.【5】While he was still a teenager【6】, Mozart was already a big star and toured? Europe giving concerts. Haydn met Mozart in 1781 and was very impressed with? him. “He is the greatest composer the world has known【7】,” he said. The two were friends until Mozart's death in 1791.
【5】本句为复合句。By the time相当于连词,意为“到……时(为止)”,引导时间状语从句,主句中composed这一动作发生在从句谓语动词所表示的动作之前,故主句用了过去完成时。

Beethoven met Haydn in 1791, but was not impressed by the older man. After they had known each other for many years, Beethoven said, “He is a good composer, but he has taught me nothing.” However, it was Haydn who encouraged Beethoven to move to Vienna.【10】
【10】本句使用了强调句型“it was... who...”,强调了主语Haydn,其中who可用that代替。

[课文翻译]
约瑟夫·海顿(1732~1809)是一位奥地利作曲家,他以“交响乐之父”而闻名。在海顿之前已经有其他作曲家从事交响乐的创作了,但是他把交响乐曲改成了适合交响乐团演奏的长乐曲。他出生在奥地利一个乡村的农民家庭。他有一副唱歌的好嗓子。在维也纳学习音乐之后,海顿去奥地利东部一个王子的宫廷里工作,在那里他成了音乐指挥家。在那儿工作了30年后,海顿移居伦敦,并在那里取得了很大的成功。
沃尔夫冈·阿马迪厄斯·莫扎特(1756~1791)是一位作曲家,他或许是有史以来最伟大的音乐天才。他去世时年仅35岁,谱写了600多支乐曲。
莫扎特出生在奥地利的萨尔茨堡,他父亲莱波尔德既是音乐家又是管弦乐队的指挥。沃尔夫冈很小的时候就表现出了音乐天赋。他4岁学习弹奏拨弦键琴,5岁开始谱曲。6岁时,他在一次音乐会上为奥地利皇后弹奏拨弦键琴。
莫扎特到14岁的时候,不仅谱写了很多管弦乐曲,还谱写了许多拨弦键琴曲、钢琴曲和小提琴曲。当莫扎特还是个青少年时,他就已经是个大明星了,并在欧洲举办了巡回音乐会。海顿在1781年与莫扎特相遇,莫扎特给他留下了深刻的印象。他说:“他是目前世界上最伟大的作曲家。”他们两人的友谊一直持续到1791年莫扎特去世。
路德维格·范·贝多芬(1770~1827)出生在德国的波恩。他很小的时候就显露出了音乐天赋,他师从身为歌唱家的父亲,学习拉小提琴和弹钢琴。莫扎特遇见了贝多芬,贝多芬给他留下了深刻的印象。莫扎特说:“他必将给世人留下精彩的作品。”
1791年贝多芬遇见了海顿,但对这位长者他的印象并不深。在他们认识多年后,贝多芬说:“他是一名优秀的作曲家,可是他什么也没有教我。”然而,是海顿鼓励贝多芬移居维也纳的。
贝多芬在奥地利首都很受欢迎,并在那里度过了余生。随着年龄的增长,他的耳朵变聋了。在他生命的最后几年中,他已经完全聋了,但他继续谱曲。

B
Kids in primary schools in Bellaire, Ohio, have something to sing about. For the past eight years, public primary schools, in that town didn't offer music classes. They didn't have the money to pay for them. But the school district got some support to bring back music this school year.
Many school officials across the country say music classes get students excited about going to school. And studies have shown that music classes may boost brainpower. For example, researchers from the University of Southern California recently released (发布) the results of a five-year study. They found that the brains of 10-and 11-year-olds who learned to play a musical instrument developed faster than the brains of kids who didn't.
Though most people aren't against teaching music in schools, not everyone says it's necessary.
Many school officials argue (争论) that learning music means less time spent on math, writing, and science, all of which may be more useful to students later in life.
Here's what two of our readers think.
Music should be taught in school for the simple reason that it makes learning more fun. We have music classes at my school, and I love them!
Taking music lessons can also build character (品质). In 2015, a research company called Grunwald Associates did a survey on music education. More than 60 percent of parents whose kids took music classes in school said their child became more focused.
——Noah Falcon, New Jersey
At my school, we don't have music classes. I think that's OK because it gives us more time to focus on main subjects, like reading and math. It's more important to learn these subjects than it is to learn how to play an instrument or sing.
If someone wanted to take music lessons, he or she could do it outside of school. I took a mariachi (墨西哥街头乐队音乐) class after school, so it didn't take time away from my other classes.
——Sophia Salazar, California
【语篇解读】 本文是议论文。文章探讨了儿童是否应该在学校上音乐课。
4.What change has happened in primary schools in Bellaire this year?
A.Music classes are offered.
B.The school year is shortened.
C.Singing is allowed in schools.

5.What does the underlined word “boost” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Create. B.Prevent.
C.Increase. D.Discover.
答案与解析:C 词义猜测题。由第二段中介绍的研究结果the brains of 10-and 11-year-olds who learned to play a musical instrument developed faster than the brains of kids who didn't可知,音乐课可以促进脑力的开发。
6.What does Noah Falcon think of music education?
A.It is unnecessary.
B.It is very important.
C.It is a waste of money.
D.It is easy to continue.
答案与解析:B 推理判断题。由Noah Falcon表达的观点it makes learning more fun和Taking music lessons can also build character可知,他认为音乐教育很重要。
7.What can we learn about Sophia Salazar?
A.She didn't like music at all.
B.Music brings her more fun.
C.Music helps her keep focused.
D.She took a music class after school.

Ⅳ.七选五
Plants are very important living things. Life could not go if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. __1__ Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. So animals and man need plants in order to live. __2__
If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering plants.
__3__ The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. __4__ An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit.
__5__ They grow from spores (孢子). Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as the seeds. When these spores fall on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.
A.There are about half a million kinds of plants in the world.
B.Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight.
C.But a few fruits have no seeds at all.
D.Not all the plants grow from the seeds.
E.This is why we find that there are so many plants around
us.
F.Flowering plants can make seeds.
G.Most non-flowering plants don't grow from seeds.
【语篇解读】 本文为说明文,是植物类文章。文章主要讲的是植物的重要性。
1.答案与解析:B 根据前句提到植物的重要性,它可以制造食物,再根据后句提到动物和人类,所以此处应该选B,通过对比体现植物的重要性。
2.答案与解析:E 前句说动物和人类需要植物才能生存,后句让仔细观察周围的植物,所以此处表示这就是为什么我们身边有如此多的植物。
3.答案与解析:F 根据上文,文章提到有两种植物flowering plants and non-flowering plants,下面先介绍开花的,再根据后句种子是被果实保护的,可知F项符合语境。
4.答案与解析:C 根据前句有些有很多种子,后句举例没有种子的水果是香蕉,可知此处表示有些没有种子的水果。
5.答案与解析:G 根据前面的内容可知介绍完了开花植物,再介绍不开花植物。再根据后句They grow from spores.,他们是由孢子长成的,所以大部分无花植物都不是由种子长成的。
课件91张PPT。Section Ⅰ Introduction &
Reading and Vocabulary Section Ⅱ Grammar
一、时间状语从句
时间状语从句用来说明主句谓语动词发生的时间,由连词引导。本单元主要学习when, while, as及by the time引导的时间状语从句。
1.when可以和延续性动词连用,也可以和短暂性动词连用,主句和从句中的动作或状态可以同时发生,也可以先后发生。
When they heard the news, they were very excited.
当他们听到这个消息时,非常激动。(hear是短暂性动词)
When I lived there, I used to go to the seashore on Sundays.
我住在那里时,星期天常到海滨去。(live是延续性动词)
[名师点津] 
(1)when还可作并列连词,意为“就在这个时候”。
I was watching TV when someone knocked at the door.
我正在看电视,这时突然有人敲门。
(2)when还可译为“这时;就在那时”,常用于以下句型:
①be about to do... when 正要做……这时
②be doing... when 正在做……这时
③had done... when 刚做完……就
2.while引导时间状语从句时,从句的谓语动词必须是延续性动词。
While/When she was reading a novel, she cried.
她看小说的时候哭了。
They rushed in while we were discussing problems.
我们正在讨论问题时,他们冲了进来。
[名师点津] while还可以引导让步状语从句,意为“尽管”。另外, while还可用作并列连词,表示“然而”。
While/Although/Though he is young, he has been to many countries.
虽然他很小,但他去过很多国家。
Some men were rich, while others are poor.
一些人很富有,而其他人很贫穷。
3.as引导时间状语从句时,常表示两个动作交替进行或同时发生,可译作“一边……一边……;随着”。
He hurried home, looking behind as he went.
他匆忙回家去,一边走一边回头望。
As time went on, it's getting warmer and warmer.
随着时间的推移,天越来越暖和了。
4.by the time引导时间状语从句时,一般情况下,如果从句用一般过去时,主句则用过去完成时;如果从句用一般现在时,主句则用将来完成时。
By the time I got to the station, the train had already gone.
我到达火车站时,火车已经开走了。
By the time he retires, he will have worked for 35 years.
到退休时,他将工作满35年。
[考情分析]
状语从句包括时间、地点、条件、让步、原因、目的和结构状语从句。统计近几年的高考英语试题及各地的模拟试题可以看出,每套试题中时间状语从句所占比重最大,试题中会出现不同性质的连词,如as可以引导时间状语从句也可作并列连词使用,表示对比关系。
[即时训练1]
单句填空
1.Whenever you buy (buy) a present, you should think about it from the receiver's point of view.
2.It was the middle of the night when my father woke (wake) me up and told me to watch the football game.
3.As you go through this book, you will_find (find) that each of the millions of people who lived through World War Ⅱ had a different experience.
4.She came across an old friend of hers yesterday while she was_shopping (shop) at the department store.
5.The passengers were_enjoying (enjoy) themselves when a small rat stole out from the bag of a young man.
二、过去完成时
1.基本用法
过去完成时的构成为“had+过去分词”。主要用法如下:
(1)表示某一动作或存在的状态发生在过去某一时间或某一动作之前,即“过去的过去”。
By the end of last week, they had finished the work.
到上周末为止,他们已经完成了工作。
When Jack arrived, he learned Mary had been away for almost an hour.
当杰克到时,他得知玛丽已经离开快一个小时了。
[名师点津] 过去完成时常常用在宾语从句中,从句谓语动作发生在主句谓语动作(过去时)之前。
She said that she had finished her homework.
她说她已完成家庭作业了。
(2)某些动词的过去完成时表示过去未实现的希望、计划或打算。常用的动词有hope, expect, suppose, think, want, wish等。
They had wanted to help but couldn't get here in time.
他们本来想要来帮忙的,但未能及时赶到这儿。
I had hoped to send him a Christmas card, but I forgot to do so.
我本来想送他一张圣诞节贺卡,但把这事给忘了。
2.过去完成时在几个重点句型中的应用
(1)在no sooner... than, hardly... when句型中,主句用过去完成时,意为“一……就;刚……就”。
I had hardly stepped into the classroom when the bell rang.
我一踏入教室的门,铃就响了。
No sooner had he rushed out than the house fell down.
他刚冲出去房子就塌了。
(2)在it was the first time that...句型中,that从句常用过去完成时。
It was the first time that he had ever spoken to me in such a tune.
这是他第一次用这样的语调跟我讲话。
3.过去完成时与一般过去时的区别
一般过去时侧重发生在过去的客观事实;而过去完成时强调动作发生在“过去的过去”,一定有一个表示过去的参照点。
I had been at the bus stop for 30 minutes when a bus finally came.
当公交车最终来的时候,我已在车站等了三十分钟。
He once worked as a teacher for 5 years, but now he is a successful manager.
他曾经做过5年教师,但现在他是一位成功的经理。
[考情分析]
动词的时态和语态是历年高考英语测试的重中之重。过去完成时是高考命题的热点之一,而且题干中有效信息越来越隐蔽,注重在语境中考查动词的时态,试题难度呈现加大的趋势,对语境理解能力的要求逐步提高。因此做题时要吃透语境,善于捕捉句子中所隐含的时间信息,克服汉语式的惯性思维,把时态和语态结合在一起,进行综合考虑。

6.答案与解析:trembling 此处为with复合结构,my legs与tremble之间为主谓关系,所以用现在分词形式作伴随状语。

8.答案与解析:to be seem to be“看来;好像”,为固定用法。
9.答案与解析:up build up“发展;建立”,为固定短语。

A man enters a store to buy milk. He walks out of the store with milk. That is all — milk. At the same time, a woman enters the same grocery store also to buy milk. She buys it. But, she also buys chicken and lemons to make dinner that night. Then she remembers to buy food for her son to eat at school. She also gets a bottle of wine for drinks with friends and a birthday card for her husband's niece. Then she gets coffee for breakfast, ice cream for dessert and remembers stamps to mail the bills. And don't forget soap for the bathroom.
And that is the difference between the female and male brains simply explained in a grocery store. Generally speaking, men do one thing at a time. Women do many. Doing many things at one time is often called “multi-tasking”, a very popular word these days.
Now scientific research supports this theory about male and female brains. A recent study has confirmed what we have known all along — men and women think differently.
Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania studied brain pictures of 949 people aged from 8 to 22 years old. They found that male brains have more connections on one side of the brain, or the hemisphere. In female brains, they found more activities and connections between the right and left sides of the brain. The left side of the brain is known as the side of “reason”. The right hemisphere is known as the “creative” side.
Regina Verma is a professor at the University of Pennsylvania. She co-wrote the report. She says when women are asked to do something difficult they might use different parts of the brain. Men, she adds, generally use just one side of the brain.
As a result, men generally deal directly with a problem. There is a strong connection between the “understanding” and the “action” parts of their brains. Women, however, might include other parts of the brain, like the part connected with reason and the part connected with sensitivity when solving a problem. Women take a less direct path to find a solution.
Dr. Verma warns that the study should not lead anyone to expect some behaviors from women and others from men.

【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了机器人与世界围棋冠军的围棋比赛,并讲述了电脑科技的发展。

There are several reasons why cats climb trees, most of which have to do with defensive purposes. Cats, as predators (捕食者), like to understand their environment well. Cats climb trees to get a better view of their surroundings, to help them see potential dangers or potential prey (猎物).
While cats are predators, they can also be easily attacked by larger animals. A tree often provides a safe hiding place. In the wild, cats climb up trees to give them a resting place that is out of predators' range. It also helps disguise their presence, which can prevent their prey from noticing that there is a cat nearby.
Sometimes some cats may climb trees for fun, or possibly to work on improving their climbing abilities. Kittens frequently test out their climbing abilities by trying to climb up everything, from bookcases to trees to a person's leg. 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 on your furniture, however, owners may wish to buy a cat tree (猫爬架) for them to climb.
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 cat's claws curve (弯曲) inward, allowing it to take hold of surfaces while going up head first. 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. Therefore, a cat up a tree is usually nothing to worry about unless it is injured; they are intelligent animals and will find out how to get down sooner or later.

Kids in primary schools in Bellaire, Ohio, have something to sing about. For the past eight years, public primary schools, in that town didn't offer music classes. They didn't have the money to pay for them. But the school district got some support to bring back music this school year.
Many school officials across the country say music classes get students excited about going to school. And studies have shown that music classes may boost brainpower. For example, researchers from the University of Southern California recently released (发布) the results of a five-year study. They found that the brains of 10-and 11-year-olds who learned to play a musical instrument developed faster than the brains of kids who didn't.
Though most people aren't against teaching music in schools, not everyone says it's necessary.
Many school officials argue (争论) that learning music means less time spent on math, writing, and science, all of which may be more useful to students later in life.
Here's what two of our readers think.
Music should be taught in school for the simple reason that it makes learning more fun. We have music classes at my school, and I love them!
Taking music lessons can also build character (品质). In 2015, a research company called Grunwald Associates did a survey on music education. More than 60 percent of parents whose kids took music classes in school said their child became more focused.
——Noah Falcon, New Jersey
At my school, we don't have music classes. I think that's OK because it gives us more time to focus on main subjects, like reading and math. It's more important to learn these subjects than it is to learn how to play an instrument or sing.
If someone wanted to take music lessons, he or she could do it outside of school. I took a mariachi (墨西哥街头乐队音乐) class after school, so it didn't take time away from my other classes.
——Sophia Salazar, California
【语篇解读】 本文是议论文。文章探讨了儿童是否应该在学校上音乐课。
4.What change has happened in primary schools in Bellaire this year?
A.Music classes are offered.
B.The school year is shortened.
C.Singing is allowed in schools.

5.What does the underlined word “boost” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Create. B.Prevent.
C.Increase. D.Discover.
答案与解析:C 词义猜测题。由第二段中介绍的研究结果the brains of 10-and 11-year-olds who learned to play a musical instrument developed faster than the brains of kids who didn't可知,音乐课可以促进脑力的开发。
6.What does Noah Falcon think of music education?
A.It is unnecessary.
B.It is very important.
C.It is a waste of money.
D.It is easy to continue.
答案与解析:B 推理判断题。由Noah Falcon表达的观点it makes learning more fun和Taking music lessons can also build character可知,他认为音乐教育很重要。

【语篇解读】 本文为说明文,是植物类文章。文章主要讲的是植物的重要性。
1.答案与解析:B 根据前句提到植物的重要性,它可以制造食物,再根据后句提到动物和人类,所以此处应该选B,通过对比体现植物的重要性。
2.答案与解析:E 前句说动物和人类需要植物才能生存,后句让仔细观察周围的植物,所以此处表示这就是为什么我们身边有如此多的植物。
3.答案与解析:F 根据上文,文章提到有两种植物flowering plants and non-flowering plants,下面先介绍开花的,再根据后句种子是被果实保护的,可知F项符合语境。
4.答案与解析:C 根据前句有些有很多种子,后句举例没有种子的水果是香蕉,可知此处表示有些没有种子的水果。

A man enters a store to buy milk. He walks out of the store with milk. That is all — milk. At the same time, a woman enters the same grocery store also to buy milk. She buys it. But, she also buys chicken and lemons to make dinner that night. Then she remembers to buy food for her son to eat at school. She also gets a bottle of wine for drinks with friends and a birthday card for her husband's niece. Then she gets coffee for breakfast, ice cream for dessert and remembers stamps to mail the bills. And don't forget soap for the bathroom.
And that is the difference between the female and male brains simply explained in a grocery store. Generally speaking, men do one thing at a time. Women do many. Doing many things at one time is often called “multi-tasking”, a very popular word these days.
Now scientific research supports this theory about male and female brains. A recent study has confirmed what we have known all along — men and women think differently.
Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania studied brain pictures of 949 people aged from 8 to 22 years old. They found that male brains have more connections on one side of the brain, or the hemisphere. In female brains, they found more activities and connections between the right and left sides of the brain. The left side of the brain is known as the side of “reason”. The right hemisphere is known as the “creative” side.
Regina Verma is a professor at the University of Pennsylvania. She co-wrote the report. She says when women are asked to do something difficult they might use different parts of the brain. Men, she adds, generally use just one side of the brain.
As a result, men generally deal directly with a problem. There is a strong connection between the “understanding” and the “action” parts of their brains. Women, however, might include other parts of the brain, like the part connected with reason and the part connected with sensitivity when solving a problem. Women take a less direct path to find a solution.
Dr. Verma warns that the study should not lead anyone to expect some behaviors from women and others from men.

There are several reasons why cats climb trees, most of which have to do with defensive purposes. Cats, as predators (捕食者), like to understand their environment well. Cats climb trees to get a better view of their surroundings, to help them see potential dangers or potential prey (猎物).
While cats are predators, they can also be easily attacked by larger animals. A tree often provides a safe hiding place. In the wild, cats climb up trees to give them a resting place that is out of predators' range. It also helps disguise their presence, which can prevent their prey from noticing that there is a cat nearby.
Sometimes some cats may climb trees for fun, or possibly to work on improving their climbing abilities. Kittens frequently test out their climbing abilities by trying to climb up everything, from bookcases to trees to a person's leg. 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 on your furniture, however, owners may wish to buy a cat tree (猫爬架) for them to climb.
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 cat's claws curve (弯曲) inward, allowing it to take hold of surfaces while going up head first. 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. Therefore, a cat up a tree is usually nothing to worry about unless it is injured; they are intelligent animals and will find out how to get down sooner or later.

A.To train their cats in climbing.
B.To help protect their furniture.
