Every day at Misselthwaite Manor was exactly the same as the day before. Mary woke up in her room and Martha was making a fire. Then she ate her breakfast and after that she went out and ran around the garden. She hated the strong wind. But the fresh air put colour into her face and soon she started eating more.
There were no toys in her room or in the garden. So, because she had nothing to play with, she walked a lot and tried to find things. Sometimes she saw Ben Weatherstaff, but he was always busy and he usually looked angry.
One day, Mary saw Ben Weatherstaff’s robin on top of the wall. She was very happy to see him again. The bird chirped (唧唧叫). Did he know her? Was he speaking to her?
“It’s me, Mary!” she shouted, “I like you! I like you!”
He flew to the top of a tree and started singing loudly. “He’s in the secret garden,” Mary thought. She walked around the garden and looked very carefully, but she couldn’t see a door.
That night after supper, she decided to ask Martha about the locked garden.
“Why does Mr. Craven hate the garden, Martha?”
“It was Mrs. Craven’s garden. She made it after they got married.”
“But how did Mrs. Craven die?” asked Mary.
“There was an old tree with a branch (树枝) like a seat in the garden. One day, she was sitting there and the branch broke. The branch hit her and the next day she died. Now Mr. Craven hates the garden.”
Mary didn’t ask any more questions. She sat beside the fire and listened to the wind outside on the moor (荒原). But as she was listening, she heard another sound. It was like a child crying. “Do you hear that?” she asked Martha.
“No,” she answered, “It’s the wind.”
Suddenly the wind blew the door of the room open. Mary could hear the sound more distinctly now. “There it is!” said Mary, “Someone’s crying.”
Martha ran and shut the door. “It’s only the wind,” she said angrily. But Mary didn’t believe her.
— Adapted from The Secret Garden

It is usually safe for humnns to have contact with dolphins that live in an aquarium (水族馆;鱼缸). You may have seen pictures of marinc biologists (海洋生物学家) swimming with dolphins there. These animals are playful and very gentle.
Dolphins that live in aquariums can learn to do all kinds of tricks to make people happy. They can also help scientists learn more about their daily activities.
Scientists already learn a lot about the ways dolphins communicate (交流) with their babies and other dolphins by watching what they do in aquariums. They can see the dolphins when they eat, sleep and play. They can see when dolphins are healthy and when they are sick.
By listening to the sounds dolphins make, and by watching them jump as high as sixteen feet in the air, scientists are able to learn more about the ways they communicate and play with each other. Their sounds and behaviours (行为) send signals (信号) to other dolphins about food and fun.
In the past, scientists thought that they could learn to speak dolphin language and that dolphins could learn to know the sounds that humans make. However, this doesn’t work. Dolphins can learn to respond (回应) to humans, but not to their words. Scientists and “teachers” are now able to teach dolphins to do all kinds of things by giving them fish as a treat when they do tricks.
Dolphins do tricks for humans all over the world. “Teachers” teach them to jump high out of the water and to carry people on their backs. All these tricks are the tricks dolphins play in the wild with each other.
Most of the dolphins we see in aquariums were born there, but many of their behaviours are still like those of dolphins in the wild. They still play and enjoy social activities with other dolphins.
31. According to the passage, what do the scientists already learn about?
A. The food dolphins hate to eat. B. The ways dolphins communicate.
C. The language dolphins speak. D. The games dolphins like best.
32. How can “teachers” teach dolphins to do all kinds of things?
A. By watching their daily activities. B. By listening to their words.
C. By watching them jump. D. By giving them fish as a treat.
33. According to the passage, what trick can dolphins do?
A. Carry people on their backs. B. Send signals to other dolphins.
C. Know the sounds that humans make. D. Jump into the water with people.
34. According to the passage, which statement is TRUE?
A. Dolphins are very clever because they understand what humans say.
B. Scientists swim with dolphins all day long to know more about them.
C. Many behaviours of dolphins in the aquarium are like those in the wild.
D. Dolphins in aquariums usually live an unhappy life because they aren’t free.
35. What is the best title of this passage?
A. Dolphins’ daily activities B. Tricks made by dolphins
C. Learning to know about dolphins D. Dolphins in aquariums

A book club is also a great place to make friends. You might know some members in your book club if some of the club members go to your school. By spending time with them at club meetings, you will get to know all the members better.
Would you like to be in a book club? It is easy to start one. All you need is some other members and a place to meet. Library meeting rooms and parks are good places. Being a member of a book club is good for you. It is also a lot of fun. Why not try a book club today?

Every day at Misselthwaite Manor was exactly the same as the day before. Mary woke up in her room and Martha was making a fire. Then she ate her breakfast and after that she went out and ran around the garden. She hated the strong wind. But the fresh air put colour into her face and soon she started eating more.
There were no toys in her room or in the garden. So, because she had nothing to play with, she walked a lot and tried to find things. Sometimes she saw Ben Weatherstaff, but he was always busy and he usually looked angry.
One day, Mary saw Ben Weatherstaff’s robin on top of the wall. She was very happy to see him again. The bird chirped (唧唧叫). Did he know her? Was he speaking to her?
“It’s me, Mary!” she shouted, “I like you! I like you!”
He flew to the top of a tree and started singing loudly. “He’s in the secret garden,” Mary thought. She walked around the garden and looked very carefully, but she couldn’t see a door.
That night after supper, she decided to ask Martha about the locked garden.
“Why does Mr. Craven hate the garden, Martha?”
“It was Mrs. Craven’s garden. She made it after they got married.”
“But how did Mrs. Craven die?” asked Mary.
“There was an old tree with a branch (树枝) like a seat in the garden. One day, she was sitting there and the branch broke. The branch hit her and the next day she died. Now Mr. Craven hates the garden.”
Mary didn’t ask any more questions. She sat beside the fire and listened to the wind outside on the moor (荒原). But as she was listening, she heard another sound. It was like a child crying. “Do you hear that?” she asked Martha.
“No,” she answered, “It’s the wind.”
Suddenly the wind blew the door of the room open. Mary could hear the sound more distinctly now. “There it is!” said Mary, “Someone’s crying.”
Martha ran and shut the door. “It’s only the wind,” she said angrily. But Mary didn’t believe her.

It is usually safe for humnns to have contact with dolphins that live in an aquarium (水族馆;鱼缸). You may have seen pictures of marinc biologists (海洋生物学家) swimming with dolphins there. These animals are playful and very gentle.
Dolphins that live in aquariums can learn to do all kinds of tricks to make people happy. They can also help scientists learn more about their daily activities.
Scientists already learn a lot about the ways dolphins communicate (交流) with their babies and other dolphins by watching what they do in aquariums. They can see the dolphins when they eat, sleep and play. They can see when dolphins are healthy and when they are sick.
By listening to the sounds dolphins make, and by watching them jump as high as sixteen feet in the air, scientists are able to learn more about the ways they communicate and play with each other. Their sounds and behaviours (行为) send signals (信号) to other dolphins about food and fun.
In the past, scientists thought that they could learn to speak dolphin language and that dolphins could learn to know the sounds that humans make. However, this doesn’t work. Dolphins can learn to respond (回应) to humans, but not to their words. Scientists and “teachers” are now able to teach dolphins to do all kinds of things by giving them fish as a treat when they do tricks.
Dolphins do tricks for humans all over the world. “Teachers” teach them to jump high out of the water and to carry people on their backs. All these tricks are the tricks dolphins play in the wild with each other.
Most of the dolphins we see in aquariums were born there, but many of their behaviours are still like those of dolphins in the wild. They still play and enjoy social activities with other dolphins.
31. According to the passage, what do the scientists already learn about?
A. The food dolphins hate to eat. B. The ways dolphins communicate.
C. The language dolphins speak. D. The games dolphins like best.
32. How can “teachers” teach dolphins to do all kinds of things?
A. By watching their daily activities. B. By listening to their words.
C. By watching them jump. D. By giving them fish as a treat.
33. According to the passage, what trick can dolphins do?
A. Carry people on their backs. B. Send signals to other dolphins.
C. Know the sounds that humans make. D. Jump into the water with people.
34. According to the passage, which statement is TRUE?
A. Dolphins are very clever because they understand what humans say.
B. Scientists swim with dolphins all day long to know more about them.
C. Many behaviours of dolphins in the aquarium are like those in the wild.
D. Dolphins in aquariums usually live an unhappy life because they aren’t free.
35. What is the best title of this passage?
A. Dolphins’ daily activities B. Tricks made by dolphins
C. Learning to know about dolphins D. Dolphins in aquariums
【答案】31. B 32. D 33. A 34. C 35. D

【32题详解】

【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据“‘Teachers’ teach them to jump high out of the water and to carry people on their backs.”可知“老师”教它们跳出水面,把人背在背上。故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Most of the dolphins we see in aquariums were born there, but many of their behaviours are still like those of dolphins in the wild”可知我们在水族馆看到的大多数海豚都出生在那里,但它们的许多行为仍然像野生海豚一样。故选C。
【35题详解】
