A
Dolphins often jump out of the waves and turn in the air. It looks like fun, but it’s also hard work. So why do they do it? Scientists have found several reasons.
Dolphins live in groups and use sound to stay in touch. Underwater, it’s hard to see far, so when a dolphin jumps and hits the water, the loud noise tells others where it is. Some can turn up to seven times in one jump!
Jumping also helps with hunting and cleaning. The splash (水花) can drive fish together, making them easier to catch. And when small fish called remoras (吸盘鱼) stick to dolphins, a good jump can knock them off.
Besides these practical reasons, dolphins are smart and playful. They may jump just for fun, sometimes playing with other animals or even humans.
Finally, water creates drag—a force that slows things down. Jumping into the air lets dolphins travel faster, helping them get away from danger or catch food. They can jump as high as a giraffe, up to six metres!
So next time you see a dolphin jump, remember: it might be talking, hunting, cleaning, playing, or just having a good time.
11. How do dolphins communicate by jumping?
A. Catch food. B. Turn in air.

12. What can the splash from a dolphin jump do?
A. Remove small fish. B. Drive fish together.

13. How does jumping help dolphins get away from danger?
A. It removes drag. B. It makes a splash.
C. It cleans their skin. D. It helps them move faster.
14. What can we infer about dolphins from the passage?
A. They live alone underwater. B. They like cleaning themselves.
C. They enjoy playing with others. D. They jump higher than a giraffe.
15. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Where dolphins live. B. How to protect dolphins.
C. How to watch dolphins swim. D. Why dolphins jump out of water.

I know how to use them.”
It was a boy’s voice and the teacher knew who he was.
However, the teacher didn’t get irritated. He said nothing about it, but really began to talk about how to use commas. The students listened very carefully. Then he wrote the following sentence on the blackboard, “Nick says the teacher is a boring fellow.”
The class laughed and Nick’s face turned red.
“Now,” said the teacher, “I’ll tell you the importance of commas.” He put two commas in the sentence, and then read, “Nick, says the teacher, is a boring fellow.” All the class laughed again. Nick felt very embarrassed (尴尬的) first, and then his face turned much redder. Finally, he couldn’t help laughing happily with the other students too. From then on, Nick began to study carefully.

A team of clever engineers, data scientists and nature scientists are restoring wild areas hit by natural disasters. By using drones (无人机) together with artificial intelligence (AI), they can plant seeds 25 times more quickly than doing it by hand. AI is a computer system that can “think” and perform tasks usually requiring human intelligence.
In a foreign country, flooding and wildfires are becoming more common as the climate changes. Extreme weather (极端天气) can make whole living areas disappear in a short time, and it takes years for trees to grow back and ecosystems to recover. When disasters happen, people often replant by hand, but this is slow and difficult.
AirSeed uses AI-controlled drones to airdrop special seed parcels (种子包裹). Each seed parcel is designed to fit its drop area. The place is recorded-geo-tagging-so people can check the task’s success. Andrew Walker, AirSeed’s boss, says, “We have to restore forests over 30–40 years. We can’t do that with traditional ways.”
This mix of AI, drones and biotechnology helps reforest faster. AirSeed can drop as many as 40,000 seed parcels a day—25 times faster and 80% cheaper than hand-planting. When trees return, everything else improves. Walker says, “It’s not just about planting a tree. Trees support wildlife, make air clean and restore soil.”
21. What do engineers and scientists use to restore wild areas?
A. Hand-planting. B. Natural recovery.
C. Drones with Al. D. A computer system.
22. What happens after extreme weather in that country?
A. Hand-planting is fast. B. Ecosystems recover at speed.
C. Trees can grow back quickly. D. Homes of plants and animals are lost.
23. Why are seed parcels specially designed?
A. To fly drones. B. To save money.
C. To record places. D. To match the drop area.
24. What does the data show about AirSeed’s way?
A. Fast and cheap. B. Slow and costly. C. Fast but costly. D. Slow but cheap.
25. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Planting More Trees B. Spreading Seeds of Hope
C. Fighting Climate Changes D. Stopping Natural Disasters
