The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order. For Questions 41-45, you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent article by choosing from the list A-G. Some of the paragraphs have been placed for you. (10 points)
A. A BBC television series has raised the question of whether cats should be kept indoors at night. Wildlife experts say keeping cats locked up from dusk to dawn will prevent much of the carnage they create, and will also mean they are less likely to be run over. Mammal expert Professor Steve Harris, from Bristol University, said: "The message is clear, most people are heartily sick of having their neighbours’ cats in their gardens".
B. Even today, some view the black cat as an omen of misfortune. Even the English language is stacked against the moggy. Spiteful people are dubbed as being "catty". A raucous cry is a "caterwaul". At work, a greedy, lazy boss is a "fat cat".
C. A new survey in the UK indicates that cats come second only to rats as the latest favorite mammal to visit our gardens. The UK’s 10 million cats have had it rough of late, drawing harsh criticism because of their bloodlust and habit of viewing the nation’s gardens as their own personal toilets.
D. Though the animals are the UK’s favorite pets, British gardeners have struck back by crowning the cat as one of the most unwelcome visitors to their plots—voting them only slightly more popular than rats in the new poll.
E. The Mammal Society, which conducted the survey says cats cut a swathe through the nation’s wildlife, killing around 300 million animals every year. "Cats are solitary predatory hunter. People ask why they kill when they are clearly well-fed...but a cat’s motivation to hunt is quite separate from its desire to satisfy hunger." Even with a full stomach, a cat cannot resist the stimuli of prey passing nearby, says Ms Heath, author of Why Does My Cat. "It doesn’t make sense for a cat to wait until it’s hungry to catch food—there may be none around then. Better to hunt when there’s the opportunity and hide the food away."
F. But, to be fair, the British can’t hate cats that much. A recent report found that the generosity of the British towards the cat has caused one in four of the creatures to become clinically obese.
G. Britain’s gardeners have revealed one of their greatest pet hates—other people’s cats. Okay, they’re sadistic murderers, but is it fair that cats have been rated as being as detestable as rats in a poll of British gardeners?
Order: G is the first paragraph and F is the last.
