But it can be more exciting if there are dolphins swimming around and jumping out of the sea too. For many people, it would be a wonderful dream to swim with these lovely animals! However, this may not be good for dolphins. They may get hurt because of human interaction (互动).Dolphins are active and usually look for food at night. In the day, they like to rest in shallow bays(海湾). Many people think the dolphins are awake during the day as they swim. But when they sleep they rest half of their brain and keep the other half awake to breathe, so they may be sleeping even when theyre swimming in the water.From 2010 to 2013, spinner dolphins (飞旋海豚) of Hawaiis Big Island were exposed to human activities more than 82 percent of the time, according to Julian Tyne, a researcher at Australias Murdoch University.The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says disturbing the animals in their near-shore habitat could force them to swim to less favorable places, putting them at risk of attack by sharks and other animals. Besides, when people are around, dolphins become more active. Thus, they cant get enough sleep. “Disturbing their resting behaviors can actually affect their long term health and the health of the dolphin population,” Ann Garrett of NOAAs National Marine Fisheries Service told the Associated Press.As a result, the NOAA wants to make rules to help protect the dolphins. For example, the agency may ban swimming with the Hawaii spinner dolphins. Or they may stop people from swimming in shallow bays when the dolphins are resting. Tour operators must also be taught to watch for signs to know when the dolphins are in their resting state. 21Which of the following about dolphins is NOT true?A. They spend most of their time sleeping at night.B. They like to stay in shallow bays during the day.C. They keep half of their brain awake while sleeping.D. They may be sleeping even when theyre swimming.22When dolphins are disturbed in their near-shore habitat, they _.A. would swim to a crowded place B. could move closer to sharksC. could become less active D. could likely sleep longer23Which activity is against the rules?A. Swimming with the Hawaii spinner dolphins.B. Swimming in bays where the dolphins live.C. Making signs that show the dolphins resting state.D. Making signs that show where the dolphins are.24What does the article mainly talk about?A. What habits dolphins have.B. What spinner dolphins are.C. How the animals live in the sea. D. How to protect dolphins near the shore.BRobert Owen was born in Wales in 1771. At the age of ten he went to work. His employer had a large private library so Owen was able to educate himself. He read a lot in his spare time and at nineteen he was given the job of superintendent(监工) at a Manchester cotton mill. He was so successful there that he persuaded his employer to buy the New Lanark mill in Scotland.When he arrived at New Lanark it was a dirty little town with a population of 2,000 people. Nobody paid any attention to the workers houses or their childrens education. The conditions in the factories were very bad. There was a lot of crime and the men spent most of their wages on alcoholic drinks.Owen improved the houses. He encouraged people to be clean and save money. He opened a shop and sold the workers cheap, well-made goods to help them. He limited the sale of alcoholic drinks. Above all, he fixed his mind on the childrens education. In 1816 he opened the first free primary school in Britain.People came from all over the country to visit Owens factory. They saw that the workers were healthier and more efficient than in other towns. Their children were better fed and better educated. Owen tried the same experiment in the United States. He bought some land there in 1825, but the community was too far away. He could not keep it under control and lost most of his money.Owen never stopped fighting for his idea. Above all he believed that people are not born good or bad. He was a practical man and his ideas were practical. If you give people good working conditions, he thought, they will work well and, the most important thing of all, if you give them the chance to learn, they will be better people. 25For Owen, his greatest achievement in New Lanark was _.A. improving workers houses B. providing the children with a good educationC. helping people to save money D. preventing men from getting drunk26From the passage we may infer that Owen was born _.A. into a rich family B. into a noble familyC. into a poor family D. into a middle class family27Owens experiment in the United States failed because _.A. he lost all his money B. people who visited it were not impressedC. he did not buy enough land D. it was too far away for him to organize it properly28We may infer from the passage that no children in Britain could enjoy free education until _.A. 1771 B. 1816 C. 1825 D. 1860CPeople around the world have their own ways of celebrating weddings. Now lets compare Eastern and Western weddings.Chinese and Indian brides normally wear red dresses and most of the wedding decorations are of the same color. This is because the color red is said to bring good fortune. In many Eastern weddings, especially Chinese weddings, the bride will change into a different dress after the ceremony. White dresses only arrived in modern times because of the influence of Western wedding dress designs.Western wedding dresses are different. Brides usually wear a wedding dress that is white in color and wear it throughout the whole wedding. Wearing white wedding dresses is said to have started in the 1840s, beginning with Queen Victoria, Queen of Great Britain. There are occasions when brides dress into more comfortable clothing so that they will be able to move more freely during the wedding reception.Traditional practices are strictly followed for most Western weddings. The couple follow up with any plans they have agreed and decided on to make their special wedding day unique and memorable. Wedding receptions and other celebrations differ among the East and the West, but the concept is still the same. They are held to show gratitude towards family members, friends and guests for being a part of the wedding ceremony.Another common custom that weddings of the East and the West have is the wearing of the wedding veil(面纱). According to superstitious(迷信的) beliefs, the bride wears a veil to protect her from being seen by evil spirits and the bridesmaids are decoys(诱饵). This is still followed even today.29Queen Victoria is said to be the first woman in Britain to _.A. have a bridesmaidB. wear a veil as a brideC. wear a white wedding dressD. wear a casual dress for the reception30According to superstitious beliefs, having bridesmaids is to_.A. protect guests B. comfort bridesC. trick evil spirits D. bring good fortune31The passage is mainly developed_.A. by time B. by spaceC. by process D. by comparisonDWhen my brother Joey was 6 months old, my mother brought him home from the hospital and told me to watch him while she fixed supper. We started playing a game I called “dogs”, rolling on the floor like pups (小狗). Then I looked up and saw my mother watching us. She was crying.“Hes blind,” she said. “The doctor told me today.”I looked at Joey. He was laughing. “He cant be blind,” I said. “He smiles at my face.”“He smiles at your voice,” she said. “Hell never see your face.”That was that. Joey was blind. Mama went back to cooking. I went back to playing a dog. From the age of 8, Joey boarded at a school for the deaf and the blind, learning to read Braille (盲文). When he was 16, the school said hed learned enough and sent him home with a Braille typewriter. At 21, Joey moved out to live on his own, he said, “like a man,” in an apartment 30 miles (48 km) away. He learned to cook, clean, do his own laundry, and do almost anything else he needed.Then he met the love of his life. She, too, was blind. When Joey called to tell me, he said: “Even a blind man can fall in love at first sight.”They shared 10 good years before he lost her to cancer. Painfully soon after, he also lost our mother, who was his champion, and our stepmother, who was Joeys best friend.What is left when you lose the loves of your life? My brother clung with an iron fist (拳头) to three gifts: Faith, hope and love.His faith grew stronger. He always had hope. And his love for his family has never gotten weaker, despite death or disappointment. Loved ones leave, but love remains.The years ahead may prove to be his hardest. His legs are growing weaker, threatening to take away the independence hes fought so hard to keep.My sister and I often wonder what will happen if Joey cant live on his own. Its not up to us. Well do what we can, but its his life. He wont have it any other way.You dont find strength to do something until its time to do it. Joey has found it whenever he has needed it. I believe he will again.32When the authors mother brought her little brother Joey back from the hospital, the author _.A. was sad because he couldnt see things clearlyB. immediately introduced him to the family dogC. worried that he might steal her mothers love from herD. had great fun playing a game with him33Which of the following order of events is CORRECT according to the article?a.

Good friendship has many benefits. It offers companionship, improves self-worth and promotes good health. There are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town, or changed our jobs or schools. Such changes often leave us without a friend.36 . But for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage. Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends. 1. Associate (交往) with others. The first step to making friends is associating with other people. You can go to public places to meet new people. Besides, you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such places. 2. Start a conversation. Starting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends. 37 You can always start the conversation first. Being able to make small talk is a very useful skill in relating with other people. 3. 38 Choosing friends with common interests is important in building friendship as these interests would always bring you and your friend together. Hanging out will always be a pleasant experience. 4. Let it grow. It is a good thing to stay in touch. However, try not to press your new friend with calls, messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend.39 . The best friendships are the ones that grow naturally. 5.
