Scientists have discovered that two dinerent kinds of sea
animals-一ocas(虎敛)and dolphins一may be working togcther
to hunt for salmon ()Orcas and dolphins are both clevcr.
but it's unusunl for two different kinds of animnls to coopcratc in
this way.
Oreas,sometimes called "killer whales",are the largest members of the dolphin family.
Oreas are clever and strong,and are famous for hunting in groups.They normnlly cat salmon-
large,strong fish that can grow to be 1 meter long or more.Pacific whitc-sided dolphins,however,
usually hunt smaller fish,and don't have the nbility to catch salmon.
Researchers have often scen these orcas and dolphins near each other.Somc pcople thought
the dolphins might be using the orcas as protcction against other orcas that sometimes eat
dolphins.But the recent study suggests that there is morc to it.
Scicntists used drones(无人机、underwater microphones,and cameras to study the animals.
They found that although orcas were the ones that actually caught the salmon,dolphins wcre
often leading the chasc(迫赶).
Both animals send out sounds and use the cchos (of those sounds to find objects.The
rescarchers noticed that they took turns sending out clicking sounds for ccholocation.The orcas
may listen to the dolphins'cchos to find the salmon.The dolphins use their speed and
echolocation to find and cbasc salmon.The orcas follow the dolphins and use their strength to
catch the salmon.
Such teamwork could help both:orcas get help finding and catching food and dolphins cat
leftovers (from the orcas'mcals.Normally,orcas kecp other animals away from their
food.But they don't mind when the dolphins stay nearby when they are eating.
Not everyonc is sure that the animnls are working togcther.The scicntists plan to continue
their studics.One thing they want to research is whcther orcas that work with dolphins have more
success catching fish than orcns that hunt on their own
21.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Orcas help dolphins find food.
B.Orcas and dolphins may hunt together.
C.Orcas sometimcs cat dolphins.
D.Scientists study animals'eating habits.
22.How did the scicntists study the animals'hunting behavior?
A.By training them in a laboratory.
B.By reading old rescarch reports.
C.By living with them in the ocean.
D.By using specinl recording tools.

23.Why do orcas probably work with dolphins?
A.Dolphins can stay ncarby while cating.B.Dolphins can catch the salmon for them.
C.Dolphins can find nnd chnsc snlmon first D.Dolphins can protcct them whilo hunting.
24.What do dolphins get from this cooperation?
A.Thcy get to ont loftover fish.
B.They learn how to catch salmon.
C.They bccome stronger hunters.
D.They nre protccted from oll orcas.
25.What will scicntists study next nccording to the passage?
A.Whether dolphins get successful oxpcricnce.
B.Whether orcas prefer hunting by themsclves.
C.Whether other animals catch and eat salmon.
D.Whether teamwork leads to more fish caught.

Q
Dear Patrick,
I've been feeling really upsct.I have somcone I always thought was my closest
friend.We often hang out and lnugh togcther.But lately,I hnve realized she never
shares her personal thoughts or worrics about study and life with me.26.
What should I do?
Sarah
Hi Sarah,
It's normal to feel sad when you care about a friend but feel the friendship is not
balanced.27.
You said you often hang out and laugh together,but your friend doesn't share her
personal worries.28.Some people find it hard to talk about their feelings.
They may be shy,afraid of being judged or used to solving problems on their own.
The best first stcp is to talk gently with her.You could say,"29.
Sometimes pcople don't notice how their actions influence us until we spcak up.
30.
I bave many friends I laugh with,but only a few who share real
feclings.So if your friend stays private,she may just be a "fun friend",which means
you can build decper friendships with others instead.
No matter what,you deserve (friendships that make you feel understood
and yalued.

result:the cardboard stays stuck to the glass,
and not a single drop of water 36 (fall)

pressure outside the glass is higher than the pressure inside,which presses the cardboard tightly
