To test this,the team played underwater rccordings of different dolphin whistles.When a dolphin heard its family's special sound,it quickly swam toward the speaker.This proved these sounds act like personal IDs.The study also found dolphins mix whistles in creative ways to share messages,such as waming about danger or pointing out food locations. Interestingly,baby dolphins spend months practicing these sounds,just like human babies leaming to talk. This suggests adult dolphins actively teach their young,an unusual behavior in the animal world.Scientists say this finding helps us understand how intelligence develops in different specics ) Sea biologists(生物学家)believe studying dolphin language could support conservation(保护)cfforts.For examplc,knowing how dolphins communicate about dangers might help protect them from occan pollution or ship noises.Already,some teams are using AI tools to decode dolphin sounds in real time.These AI tools can explain the meaning of the sounds.In this way,humans could better watch dolphin health and create safer sea eavironments. This study not only decpens our love for dolphins'intelligence but also reminds us to protect these amazing animals and their underwater home. 34.What did dolphins do when hearing their family's whistle? A Thcy swam away quickly. B.They repeated the same sound. C.They moved toward the sound. D.They wamed others of danger. 35.Which of the following can be put in" in Para.2?
