They searched all day. They searched for three days, but they did not find Tom or Becky. Where could they be? At the picnic, Tom and Becky went into the caves with the other children.

Scientists have recently discovered that bottle-nosed dolphins (瓶鼻海豚) can identify (认出) themselves in the mirror — much like you and I can! When you see a zit (青春痘) on your face, what do you do? Go to the mirror time and again, and wonder what it is still doing there. Well, this is exactly what two male bottle-nosed dolphins, Presley and Tab, do as well. So, these lovable aquatic animals (水栖动物) are not just sailors’ friends, but they are also aware of their bodies — almost like humans! A Reuters news agency report in The Telegraph newspaper says that Presley and Tab stay in a pool with reflective glass walls in the New York Aquarium. Researchers in the Wildlife Conservation Society’s Osborn Laboratories of Marine Science noticed that when Presley and Tab saw their own reflections (倒影), they did not seem to think that they were looking at another dolphin. Dolphins are very social creatures, and are friendly with humans as well as their own kind. This got the researchers thinking. Perhaps the dolphins identified their own images? So they decided to find out. Using non-toxic (无毒的) ink, they made marks on different parts of the dolphins’ bodies, changing the place every week. Every time their bodies were marked, the dolphins made more trips to the mirror than usual. If the ink mark was on their tummy (肚子), they would expose (露出) their tummy to the mirror and look at it for a long time. Now doesn’t that sound familiar? Imagine the dolphins wondering — “Now where did that mark come from? I wonder how long it’s going to stay?” Till now, only the great apes (猿) like the chimps, the gorillas and the orangutans have displayed this quality of identifying their images in the mirror. All other animals have failed this test. The researchers feel that these findings may increase human understanding towards dolphins, which are being hunted and killed in great numbers. Dolphin fins are considered to be a very delicious dish in several Southeast Asian countries. 1. What have scientists discovered about bottle-nosed dolphins? A. They tend to (倾向于) have human awareness. B. They can identify their bodies in the mirror. C. They love to see the reflections of their bodies. D. They are much smarter than humans. 2. How did the researchers carry out their experiment? A. By communicating more with the dolphins. B. By making the dolphins make more trips to the mirror. C. By drawing special symbols on the dolphins’ bodies. D. By exposing the dolphins’ tummies to the mirror. 3. Which statement can be inferred (推断) from the text? A. Dolphins are not being protected well. B. Male dolphins care much more about their images. C. Dolphins get along well with all creatures. D. Dolphins are smarter than the great apes like the chimps. 4. What’s the best title of the text? A. Dolphins: An Endangered Species in Need of Attention B. Dolphins: Social Beings with Unique Communication Skills C. Dolphins: Aquatic Animals Fond of Their Own Self-reflection D. Dolphins: Smart Creatures Capable of Self-recognition in Mirrors 四、根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 The Great Wall is a famous place in China. Many people visit Badaling and Mutianyu. __1__________ .

They are no hurried travellers, but snowy owls (雪鸮) from the North! These beautiful white birds fly south to find food. To an owl, the flat ground of the airport looks just like its name of the Arctic. However, the airport can be a dangerous place for them. They might hit planes, which is a big risk for both the birds and the planes. To solve this problem, an expert named Norman Smith has stepped in. He is lovingly known as the “Owl Man.” Since 1981, Smith has helped to move more than 900 owls to safer homes. He is very gentle so the owls do not get hurt. After capturing an owl, he often puts a tiny transmitter (发射器) on its back. It tells scientists where the owls fly. Smith’s work is so amazing that people made a movie about him. Through his stories, Smith wants to share a message: Together, we can better understand and care for our world. Thanks to the “Owl Man”, the airport is now safe for both planes and owls. 阅读短文，回答问题，每小题答案不超过10个单词。 1.

Scientists have recently discovered that bottle-nosed dolphins (瓶鼻海豚) can identify (认出) themselves in the mirror — much like you and I can! When you see a zit (青春痘) on your face, what do you do? Go to the mirror time and again, and wonder what it is still doing there. Well, this is exactly what two male bottle-nosed dolphins, Presley and Tab, do as well. So, these lovable aquatic animals (水栖动物) are not just sailors’ friends, but they are also aware of their bodies — almost like humans! A Reuters news agency report in The Telegraph newspaper says that Presley and Tab stay in a pool with reflective glass walls in the New York Aquarium. Researchers in the Wildlife Conservation Society’s Osborn Laboratories of Marine Science noticed that when Presley and Tab saw their own reflections (倒影), they did not seem to think that they were looking at another dolphin. Dolphins are very social creatures, and are friendly with humans as well as their own kind. This got the researchers thinking. Perhaps the dolphins identified their own images? So they decided to find out. Using non-toxic (无毒的) ink, they made marks on different parts of the dolphins’ bodies, changing the place every week. Every time their bodies were marked, the dolphins made more trips to the mirror than usual. If the ink mark was on their tummy (肚子), they would expose (露出) their tummy to the mirror and look at it for a long time. Now doesn’t that sound familiar? Imagine the dolphins wondering — “Now where did that mark come from? I wonder how long it’s going to stay?” Till now, only the great apes (猿) like the chimps, the gorillas and the orangutans have displayed this quality of identifying their images in the mirror. All other animals have failed this test. The researchers feel that these findings may increase human understanding towards dolphins, which are being hunted and killed in great numbers. Dolphin fins are considered to be a very delicious dish in several Southeast Asian countries. 1. What have scientists discovered about bottle-nosed dolphins? A. They tend to (倾向于) have human awareness. B. They can identify their bodies in the mirror. C. They love to see the reflections of their bodies. D. They are much smarter than humans. 2. How did the researchers carry out their experiment? A. By communicating more with the dolphins. B. By making the dolphins make more trips to the mirror. C. By drawing special symbols on the dolphins’ bodies. D. By exposing the dolphins’ tummies to the mirror. 3. Which statement can be inferred (推断) from the text? A. Dolphins are not being protected well. B. Male dolphins care much more about their images. C. Dolphins get along well with all creatures. D. Dolphins are smarter than the great apes like the chimps. 4. What’s the best title of the text? A. Dolphins: An Endangered Species in Need of Attention B. Dolphins: Social Beings with Unique Communication Skills C. Dolphins: Aquatic Animals Fond of Their Own Self-reflection D. Dolphins: Smart Creatures Capable of Self-recognition in Mirrors 【答案】BCAD 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了科学家最近的一项发现：瓶鼻海豚能够在镜子中识别自己的身体，这一能力此前只有类人猿（如黑猩猩、大猩猩和猩猩）具备。文章还提到，研究人员通过在海豚身体上用无毒墨水做标记的实验验证了这一发现，并指出海豚作为聪明的水生动物，目前正面临被大量捕杀的威胁，其鳍在东南亚一些国家被视为美味佳肴。 1. 题干意思：科学家们对瓶鼻海豚有什么发现？A. 他们往往具有人类意识；B. 他们能在镜子里认出自己的身体；C. 他们喜欢看自己身体的倒影；D. 他们比人类聪明得多。根据第1段“Scientists have recently discovered that bottle-nosed dolphins (瓶鼻海豚) can identify (认出) themselves in the mirror — much like you and I can!（科学家最近发现，瓶鼻海豚可以像你我一样在镜子里认出自己！）”可知，科学家最近发现瓶鼻海豚可以在镜子中识别自己的身体。故选B。 2. 题干意思：研究人员是如何进行他们的实验的？A. 通过与海豚进行更多的交流；B. 通过让海豚更多地去靠近镜子；C. 通过在海豚身上画上特殊的符号；D. 通过让海豚的腹部面对镜子。根据第4段“This got the researchers thinking. Perhaps the dolphins identified their own images? So they decided to find out. Using non-toxic (无毒的) ink, they made marks on different parts of the dolphins’ bodies, changing the place every week. （这让研究人员产生了思考：或许这些海豚能够认出自己的影像？于是他们决定一探究竟。他们使用无毒墨水，在海豚身体的不同部位做标记，每周更换标记的位置。）”可知，研究人员进行实验的方式是在海豚身上画上特殊的符号。故选C。 3. 题干意思：从文章可以推断出以下哪一项陈述？A. 海豚没有得到很好的保护；B. 雄性海豚更关心自己的形象；C. 海豚与所有生物相处得很好；D. 海豚比黑猩猩等类人猿聪明。根据第6段“The researchers feel that these findings may increase human understanding towards dolphins, which are being hunted and killed in great numbers.（研究人员认为，这些发现可能会增进人类对海豚的了解，因为海豚正面临着大量被捕杀和猎杀的危险。）”说明海豚面临被过度捕杀的威胁，即保护不足→故A正确；根据第2段“When you see a zit (青春痘) on your face, what do you do? Go to the mirror time and again, and wonder what it is still doing there. Well, this is exactly what two male bottle-nosed dolphins, Presley and Tab, do as well.（当你看到脸上有青春痘时，你会怎么做？一次又一次地走到镜子前，想知道它还在那里做什么。嗯，这正是两只雄性瓶鼻海豚普雷斯利和塔布所做的。）”但未必较雄性和雌性→排除选项B；根据第5段“Dolphins are very social creatures, and are friendly with humans as well as their own kind.（海豚是十分社交的动物，它们既对人类友好，也对同类友好。）”但未提到所有生物→排除选项B；根据第5段“Imagine the dolphins wondering — “Now where did that mark come from? I wonder how long it’s going to stay?” Till now, only the great apes (猿) like the chimps, the gorillas and the orangutans have displayed this quality of identifying their images in the mirror. All other animals have failed this test.（想象一下这些海豚在思考——‘这个标记是从哪里来的？我想知道它会保持多久不变？’到目前为止，只有类人猿（如黑猩猩、大猩猩和猩猩）能够表现出这种在镜子中识别自己影像的特性。其他所有动物都未能通过这一测试。）”原文未比较海豚和类人猿的智力高低，仅说明两者都有此能力→排除选项D。故选A。 4. 题干意思：这篇文章最好的标题是什么？A. 海豚：一种需要关注的濒危物种；B. 海豚：具有独特沟通技巧的社会生物；C. 海豚：喜欢自我反省的水生动物；D. 海豚：能够在镜子里自我识别的聪明生物。通读全文，并根据第1段中的“Scientists have recently discovered that bottle-nosed dolphins (瓶鼻海豚) can identify (认出) themselves in the mirror — much like you and I can!（科学家最近发现，瓶鼻海豚可以像你我一样在镜子里认出自己！）”可知，文中明确提到了科学家发现瓶鼻海豚可以在镜子中识别自己，这一发现表明海豚是非常聪明的生物，具有自我识别的能力。故选D。 四、根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 The Great Wall is a famous place in China.

They are no hurried travellers, but snowy owls (雪鸮) from the North! These beautiful white birds fly south to find food. To an owl, the flat ground of the airport looks just like its name of the Arctic. However, the airport can be a dangerous place for them. They might hit planes, which is a big risk for both the birds and the planes. To solve this problem, an expert named Norman Smith has stepped in. He is lovingly known as the “Owl Man.” Since 1981, Smith has helped to move more than 900 owls to safer homes. He is very gentle so the owls do not get hurt. After capturing an owl, he often puts a tiny transmitter (发射器) on its back. It tells scientists where the owls fly. Smith’s work is so amazing that people made a movie about him. Through his stories, Smith wants to share a message: Together, we can better understand and care for our world. Thanks to the “Owl Man”, the airport is now safe for both planes and owls. 阅读短文，回答问题，每小题答案不超过10个单词。 1.
