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 they’re swimming in the water.From 2010 to 2013, spinner dolphins (飞旋海豚) of H awaii’s Big Island were exposed to human act ivities more than 82 percent of the time, according to Julian Tyne, a researcher at Australia’s 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 can’t get enough sleep. “Disturbing their resting behaviors can actually affect their long term health and the health of the dolphin population,” Ann Garrett of NOAA’s 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.21．Which 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 they’re swimming.22．When dolphins are disturbed in their near-shore habitat, they _____.A. would swim to a crowded placeB. could move closer to sharksC. could become less activeD. could likely sleep lon ger23．Which 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.24．What 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 children's 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 children's education. In 1816 he opened the first free primary school in Britain.People came from all over the country to visit Owen's factory. They saw that the workerswere 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."25．For Owen, his greatest achievement in New Lanark was _____.A. improving worker's housesB. providing the children with a good educationC. helping people to save moneyD. preventing men from getting drunk26．From the passage we may infer that Owen was born _____.A. into a rich familyB. into a noble familyC. into a poor familyD. into a middle class family27．Owen's experiment in the United States failed because _____.A. he lost all his moneyB. people who visited it were not impressedC. he did not buy enough landD. it was too far away for him to organize it properly28．We may infer from the passage that no children in Britain could enjoy free education until _____.A. 1771B. 1816C. 1825D. 1860CPeople around the world have their own ways of celebrating weddings. Now let’s 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 manyEastern 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 ag reed 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.29．Queen 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 reception30．According to superstitious beliefs, having bridesmaids is to_____.A. protect guestsB. comfort bridesC. trick evil spiritsD. bring good fortune31．The passage is mainly developed____.A. by timeB. by spaceC. by processD. 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 playin g 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.“He’s blind,” she said. “The doctor told me today.”I looked at Joey. He was laughing. “He can’t be blind,” I said. “He smiles at my face.”“He smiles at your voice,” she said. “He’ll 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 he’d 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 Joey’s 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 t ake away the independence he’s fought so hard to keep.My sister and I often wonder what will happen if Joey can’t live on his own. It’s not up to us. We’ll do what we can, but it’s his life. He won’t have it any other way.You don’t find strength to do something until it’s time to do it. Joey has found it whenever he has needed it. I believe he will again.32．When the author’s mother brought her little brother Joey back from the hospital, the author _____.A. was sad because he couldn’t see things clearlyB. immediately introduced him to the family dogC. worried that he might steal her mother’s love from herD. had great fun playing a game with him33．Which of the following order of events is CORRECT according to the article?a.
