C
Two summers ago, a whale named Rounder gave birth near the island of Dominica. When the baby was about to be born, eleven other whales from her family swam over to help. They made clicks to communicate with one another. After the baby was born, the whales helped her reach the surface (表面) of the water to breathe by holding her. They stayed with her until she was strong enough to swim by herself.
Today, scientists are trying to understand the language of whales. They are using new technology to record and study the sounds that whales make. These sounds may express feelings such as care, pain, or joy. If we can understand them, we may learn more about how whales live and how they feel.
A scientist named David Gruber started a program called CETI. His team includes experts in language, biology, and AI. Their work builds on several years of findings in animal communication, not only in whales but across the animal world. They hope to develop a tool to change whale sounds into human words.
This work may help us protect animals better. For example, whales use sound to find food and stay in touch with their families. However, noise from ships and machines in the ocean can make life difficult for them. If we can understand what animals are saying, we may be able to make better rules to keep their world safe.
21. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By telling a story. B. By asking a question.
C. By listing numbers. D. By showing feelings.
22. What did the whales do after the baby was born?
A. They left the baby alone in the sea. B. They helped the baby find seafood.
C. They taught the baby to make sounds. D. They helped the baby develop life skills.
23. What can we learn about the program CETI?
A It finds how whales give birth. B. It studies animal communication.
C. It endangers the sea environment. D. It is led by scientists from the UK.
24. What can we infer from the underlined sentence?
A. Ocean noise has no effect on whales.
B. Ships help whales find their way home.
C. Human activities harm whales’ daily life.
D. Whales enjoy the loud sound in the ocean.
25. What kind of text is this passage?
A. A historical story. B. A book review.
C. A scientific article. D. A travel guide.
【答案】21. A 22. D 23. B 24. C 25. C

Two summers ago, a whale named Rounder gave birth near the island of Dominica. When the baby was about to be born, eleven other whales from her family swam over to help. They made clicks to communicate with one another. After the baby was born, the whales helped her reach the surface (表面) of the water to breathe by holding her. They stayed with her until she was strong enough to swim by herself.
Today, scientists are trying to understand the language of whales. They are using new technology to record and study the sounds that whales make. These sounds may express feelings such as care, pain, or joy. If we can understand them, we may learn more about how whales live and how they feel.
A scientist named David Gruber started a program called CETI. His team includes experts in language, biology, and AI. Their work builds on several years of findings in animal communication, not only in whales but across the animal world. They hope to develop a tool to change whale sounds into human words.
This work may help us protect animals better. For example, whales use sound to find food and stay in touch with their families. However, noise from ships and machines in the ocean can make life difficult for them. If we can understand what animals are saying, we may be able to make better rules to keep their world safe.
21. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By telling a story. B. By asking a question.
C. By listing numbers. D. By showing feelings.
22. What did the whales do after the baby was born?
A. They left the baby alone in the sea. B. They helped the baby find seafood.
C. They taught the baby to make sounds. D. They helped the baby develop life skills.
23. What can we learn about the program CETI?
A. It finds how whales give birth. B. It studies animal communication.
C. It endangers the sea environment. D. It is led by scientists from the UK.
24. What can we infer from the underlined sentence?
A. Ocean noise has no effect on whales.
B. Ships help whales find their way home.
C. Human activities harm whales’ daily life.
D. Whales enjoy the loud sound in the ocean.
25. What kind of text is this passage?
A. A historical story. B. A book review.
C. A scientific article. D. A travel guide.
