The dolphin is one of the smartest animals in the ocean. It is a kind of mammal (哺乳动物), not a fish, because it needs to come up to the surface (水面) to breathe air. Dolphins can live in both warm seas and rivers. They usually swim in groups called pods. A pod may have only a few dolphins, or sometimes hundreds of them.
Dolphins use sounds to talk to each other. They make clicks and whistles (口哨) to share information. They also use a special way called echolocation to find food. By sending out sounds and listening for the echoes, dolphins can “see” things in dark or muddy (泥泞的) water.
These animals are fast swimmers. They can jump high out of the water, which often makes people smile. Some dolphins even help fishermen by driving fish into their nets. In some places, they are trained to help save people in the sea.
Sadly, dolphins face dangers from pollution, fishing nets, and boat traffic. We should work together to help them, so that these clever animals can live safely in the ocean for many years.
24.Why is a dolphin a mammal?
A.Because it swims in groups. B.Because it is very smart.
C.Because it needs to breathe air. D.Because it lives in warm water.
25.Which of the following is TRUE about dolphins?
A.They cannot help people. B.They can make people happy.
C.They live only in warm seas. D.They swim the fastest in the ocean.
26.Where could you probably read this passage?
A.In a travel guide. B.In a history book.
C.In a sports newspaper. D.In a science magazine.
C
“Please don’t kill me.” This is what a girl said recently when she was hurt by a sea lion in California, US. Usually considered a friendly animal, many believe the sea lion went crazy because of algae (海藻).
There is a toxin (毒素) in a harmful algae. According to the US National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA Fisheries), more than 100 calls are made every day reporting sea lions and dolphins influenced by this toxin.
John Warner, CEO of the Marine Mammal Care Center in Los Angeles, told the BBC that these animals don’t really attack people. “These animals do that because they are sick,” he said. For example, when sea lions are affected by the toxin, they often appear very tired and confused (混乱的). They might even get angry, reported The Guardian.
The harmful algae grows fast when deep ocean water moves up to the surface. This brings nutrients (营养) that help the algae grow. Fish eat the algae and get the toxin, and when dolphins and sea lions eat those fish, they get sick.
However, according to NOAA Fisheries, the harmful algae showed up earlier than usual .The outbreaks (爆发) also happen more often and are harder to see coming.
This is because of climate change, noted The Guardian. Warmer weather and changing ocean conditions make it easier for the algae to grow. Moreover, some scientists also think wildfires in Los Angeles might play a role. Large wildfires have caused the ocean near the beach to have more nutrients.
27.Why does the text begin with the girl’s story?
A.To raise the topic. B.To give us a lesson.
C.To report the news. D.To make us afraid.
28.According to Paragraph 3, the sea lions attack people because of ________.
A.loneliness B.sadness C.illness D.tiredness
29.How do dolphins and sea lions get the toxin according to Paragraph 4?
A.By hurting the girl. B.By eating toxic fish.
C.By touching algae. D.By drinking toxic water.
30.What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A.The effect of warmer weather. B.The harm of the algae outbreaks.
C.The results of large wildfires. D.The reasons for the algae outbreaks.

Pandas are one of the most popular wild animals in the world. They mainly live in the bamboo forests of Sichuan, China. Pandas live on bamboo — they eat about 12 to 38 kilograms of bamboo every day. Because of deforestation(森林砍伐), bamboo forests are becoming smaller, so pandas are losing their homes. Now, there are only about 1,800 wild pandas left in the world.
To protect pandas, China has built many nature reserves. In these reserves, pandas can live safely and find enough food. Scientists are also working hard to study pandas’ living habits and help them reproduce.
Pandas are not only cute but also an important part of the ecosystem. Protecting pandas is protecting our natural world.
