according to a new report published by wwf（world wildlife fund）；and the whale and dolphin conservation society（wdcs）.the report “whales in hot water?” draws attention to the growing impacts of climate change on whales. they range from changes in sea temperature and the freshening of the seawater because of the melting of ice and increased rainfalls, to a sea level rise, loss of icy polar habitats and the decline of krill populations in key areas. krill, a tiny shrimp that is dependent on sea ice, is the main source of food for many of the great whales.the speeding up of climate change adds greatly to trouble from other human activities, such as chemical and noise pollution, which kills some 1000 whales every day.“whales and dolphins have an ability to adapt to their changing environment,” said mark simmonds, international director of science at wdcs. “but the climate is now changing at such a fast pace that it is unclear to what extent whales and dolphins will be able to adjust.”climate change impacts are currently greatest in the arctic and the antarctic. according to the report, whales that rely on polar, icy waters for their home and food resources are likely to be greatly affected by the reduction of sea ice cover.wdcs and wwf are urging governments to cut global production of co2 by at least 50 percent by the middle of this century. the latest report of the intergovernmental panel on climate change showed it was possible to stop global warming if the worlds emissions start to decline before 2015.61. what is the literary type of this passage?a. story b. announcement. c. news d. novel62. from the passage, we can learn that whales mainly feed on _.a. dolphins b. krill c. sea horses d. sharks63. which of the following has the same meaning as the underlined word “decline”?a. increase b. reduce c. rise d. fall64. in what place is climate change the greatest?a. the pacific ocean b. asia.c. two polar areas.d. equator.65. which of the following is not right according to the passage?a. climate change will lead to the changes in sea temperature.b. climate change will result in the freshening of the sea water.c. climate change will have a bad effect on human activities and whales.d. human beings will forever have no ability to stop global warmingb“whats in a name?” according to shakespeares romeo and juliet, there is not too much. “that which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” but shakespeare may have been wrong. in most cultures, names matter a great deal.americans choose names for their children with care. parents usually think about the impression a name gives, not its meaning. most americans would consider a “jennifer” more attractive than a “bertha”, for example. the last name, or, surname, must also be considered when choosing a first and middle name. a name like lester chester hester would sound poetic, but odd. parents would avoid names that remind them of people they dont like. on the other hand, people might name their children after a respected elderly relative or even a famous person. the popularity of certain names can change with each new generation. names that were once common, like fanny or elmer, sound old-fashioned today. but other names-like john and david, mary and sarah-have stood the test of time and continue to be favorites.people in america dont always call their friends and relatives by their given names. instead, they often use nicknames. sometimes nicknames are short forms of a longer name. for instance, a girl named elizabeth may be called lisa, beth or betsy. as children grow up, they may decide for themselves which nickname they wish to be called. some people just go by the initials of their first and middle names, like b.j. or r.c. and of course, people may call their children or their sweethearts other special nicknames. often they have a “sweet” flavor, like honey or sugar.whats in a name? a word of significance. so if youre choosing an english name for yourself, take care to choose a good one. a made-up name could sound strange to native english speakers. and a translation of your chinese name may not make an appropriate name, either. but a good name can leave a positive and lasting impression. as an american politician once said, “in real life, unlike in shakespeare, the sweetness of the rose depends upon the name it bears.”66. what does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 mean?a. people change names in order to be popular with the new generation.b. names will change by themselves in order to be popular.c. some names may no longer be popular among the new generation.d. no names can stand the test of time.67. when choosing names, you should stick to the following principles except that _.a. the impression a name gives is more important than its meaningb. you can name after a well-known personc. surname should be paid attention tod. you can create a name that is special68. the word “initial” in paragraph 3 probably means _.a. nickname b. the first letter c. short form d. title69. the author is most likely to name a newly born baby girl _.a. bertha b. fanny c. yunyun d. elizabeth70. what is the main idea of this passage?a. names have great significance to americans.b. names change when time goes by.c. chinese people should be careful when choosing their english names.d. roses smell sweet by any other name. ca year ago august, dave fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west michigan. his wife, gerrie, was still working in the local school cafeteria, but work for dave was
