三. 阅读理解 （每小题2分，共10分）
I think cats are the easiest animals to look after and they are so nice towards their owners, so many people keep them as pets.
When you first bring your new cat home, it will feel afraid. So when you get home, take your cat out of the box, and just let it walk around to know the new home. If you try to pick it up all the time, you will just make it more afraid.
Cats can look after themselves, and they don’t often need walks. But you need to clean out their plates, and feed them food and water.
Your cats will need a lot of care, or (否则) they will be unhappy. My Kitty gets much love and care, so he is always happy.

A. Keep the cat in the box.
B. Hold the cat in your hands.
