21、land was near, which would be vital information if a boat and her crew were in danger. Some dolphins have even protected shipwrecked sailors from sharks. It is no wonder that these unique and fascinating creatures have long been known as our friends.You may think dolphins are fish, but they are actu

22、ally mammals. They are related to whales and porpoises, and they evolved around 10 million years ago. Dolphins breathe air, give birth to live young, and feed them milk.

23、gether to form schools of up to 1,000 dolphins.Dolphins are thought to be intelligent animals because of their playfulness, curiosity, and quick ability to learn. They seem to communicate with each other through a combination of squeaks, whistles, and clicks. While scientists dont know what they are

24、 going on about, it is thought that dolphins are telling each other that food is nearby, or warning each other of approaching danger.

25、fferentiate between a shark and a boat.Unfortunately, dolphins have faced increasing danger in recent years.

However, those days are gone, even in Hong Kong, and nowadays graduates often face strong compet

30、ition in the search for jobs.Job seekers first have to make a careful assessment of their own abilities. One area of assessment should be of their academic qualifications, which would include special skills within their subject area. Graduates should also consider their own personal values and attit

31、udes, or the relative importance to themselves of such matters as money, security, leadership and caring for others.The second stage is to study the opportunities available for employment and to think about how the general employment situation is likely to develop in the future. After studying all t

32、he various options, they should be in a position to make informed comparisons between various careers.Job application forms and letters should, of course, be filled in carefully and correctly, without grammar or spelling errors.When graduates are asked to attend for interview, they should prepare pr

33、operly by finding out all they can about the prospective employer. Dressing suitably and arriving for the interview on time are also obviously important. Interviewees should try to give positive and helpful answers and should not be afraid to ask questions about anything they are unsure about. This

34、is much better than pretending to understand a question and giving an unsuitable answer. There will always be good career opportunities for people with ability, skills and determination; the secret to securing a good job is to be one of them.1.

35、 in Hong Kong” suggest that _. a. in the past, finding a good career was easier in Hong Kong than elsewhere. b. nowadays, everyone in Hong Kong has an equal chance of finding a good career. c. it used to be harder to find a good job in Hong Kong than in other countries. d.

They have always complained

40、, more or less justly, that they are possessive and dominant; that they do not trust their children to deal with crisis; that they talk too much about certain problemsand that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationship.I think it is true that parents often underestimate their

41、 teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young.Young people often irritate parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet accepted. So they create a

42、culture and society of their own. Then, it is turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste.Sometimes y

43、ou are resistant, and proud because you do not want your parents to approve of what you do. If they did approve, it looks as if you are betraying your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog(处于劣势者): you cant win but at least you can keep your honor. This is passiv

44、e way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents control. But it ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself.If you plan to control your life, cooperation can be part of that plan. You can impre

45、ss others, especially your parents, into doing things the way you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.6.

Teenagers do not want their parents to approve of whatever they do be

48、cause they _. a. have a desire to be independent b. feel that they are superior in a small way to the adults c. are not likely to win over the adults d. have already been accepted into the adult world5. To improve parent-child relationships, teenagers are advised to be _. a. obedient b. independent

49、c. responsible d. cooperativeANSWERS 1. b 2. a 3. d 4. a 5. dPassage 5The fridge is considered a necessity. It has been so since the 1960s when packaged food first appeared with the label: “store in the refrigerator.”In my fridgeless Fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily. The milkman came

50、daily, the grocer, the butcher, the baker, and the ice-cream man delivered two or three times a week. The Sunday meat would last until Wednesday and surplus(剩余的) bread and milk became all kinds of cakes. Nothing was wasted, and we were never troubled by rotten food. Thirty years on, food deliveries

51、have ceased; fresh vegetables are almost unobtainable in the country.The invention of the fridge contributed comparatively little to the art of food preservation. A vast way of well-tried techniques already existednatural cooling, drying, smoking, salting, sugaring, bottlingWhat refrigeration did pr

52、omote was marketingmarketing hardware and electricity, marketing soft drinks, marketing dead bodies of animals around the globe in search of a good price.Consequently, most of the worlds fridges are to be found, not in the tropics where they might prove useful, but in the wealthy countries with mild

53、 temperatures where they are climatically almost unnecessary. Every winter, millions of fridges hum away(不断地嗡嗡作响) continuously, and at vast expense, busily maintaining an artificially-cooled space inside and artificially-heated housewhile outside, nature provides the desired temperature free of char

54、ge. The fridges effect upon the environment has been evident, while its contribution to human happiness has been insignificant. If you dont believe me, try it yourself, invest in a food cabinet（橱柜） and turn off your fridge next winter. You may miss the hamburgers, but at least youll get rid of that
