Swimming in the water of Hawaii’s Big Island is a fun experience. And it can be
more exciting if there are dolphins swimming around and jumping out of the sea too.
For many people, it would be a wonderful dream to swim with these lovely animals!
However, this may not be good for dolphins. They may get hurt because of human
interaction (互动).
Dolphins are active and usually look for food at night. In the day, they like to rest in shallow bays(浅湾). Many people think the dolphins are awake during the day as they swim. But when they sleep they rest half of their brain and keep the other half awake to breathe, so they may be sleeping even when they’re swimming in the water.
From 2010 to 2013, spinner dolphins (飞旋海豚) of Hawaii’s Big Island appeared to human activities more than 82 percent of the time, according to Julian Tyne, a researcher at Australia’s Murdoch University.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says disturbing the animals in their near-shore habitat could force them to swim to less pleasant places where they may be attacked by sharks and other animals.
Moreover, when people are around, dolphins become more active. Thus, they can’t get enough sleep. “D isturbing their resting behaviors can actually affect their long term health and the health of the dolphin population.”Ann Garrett of NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service said.
As a result, the NOAA wants to make rules to help protect the dolphins. For example, people may not be allowed to swim with the Hawaii spinner dolphins. Or they may stop people from swimming in shallow bays when the dolphins are resting. Tour operators must also be taught to watch for signs to know when the dolphins are in their resting state.
29．Which of the following about dolphins is NOT true?
A．They keep half of their brain awake while sleeping
B．They like to stay in shallow bays during the day
C．They spend most of their time sleeping at night
D．They may be sleeping even when they’re swimming
30．When dolphins are disturbed in their near-shore habitat, they ________.
A．would swim to you B．could likely sleep longer
C．could become less active D．could move closer to danger
31．The writer of the article mainly wants to________.
A．introduce spinner dolphins B．tell you different types of dolphins
C．ask you to swim with dolphins D．advise you not to disturb dolphins

On Saturday Patrick woke up with a little shock, knowing that this was a special day. For a moment he couldn’t think exactly why, and then, with an excited flutter of his stomach, he remembered. At ten o’clock today he was going to find out the final result of the programme called Super Brain. He got dressed more carefully than usual, went downstairs and turned on the TV. Quickly he switched channels. Cartoons, cartoons, advertisements, man talking, snow, snow… and still nothing at all on Channel 8.
“Patrick, turn it off, darling, if you’re going to watch.” Judith walked past with the newspaper under her arm and her eyes half closed. She headed for the kitchen. Patrick turned off the TV and followed.
“What’s for breakfast, Mum?”
“We will see,” Judith said in a low voice, turning on the electric kettle (水壶). She looked sleepily at him and smiled. “You look nice, darling,”She said. “You’re all ready. But we can’t go till eight-thirty at the earliest, you know. Nothing will be open till then.”
Patrick’s stomach seemed to feel a little sick. “We aren’t going out, are we?” He asked. Judith began to make the tea. “Don’t say you’ve forgotten!” she said, “I promised you, last Saturday. Your new trainers, remember?”“Oh—oh, but I can’t go out this morning, Mum. There’s something I’ve got to watch on TV. At ten o’clock. I’ve got to!

injured 31 others. That day was the first day of a three-day national holiday
marking the Tomb-Sweeping Day.
Two people died in a local hospital where nine others are being treated.

microblog account at https://www.360docs.net/doc/c98891617.html,.

The Ministry (部长) of Public Security told traffic departments nationwide to keep a look out for vehicles using the emergency lane occupancy.
All highways in China leave the right lane as the emergency lane. Some drivers, however, pay no attention to this rule. Therefore, the police call on drivers to follow the rule strictly and offer the injured more hope of being saved.
The ministry also asked the police to watch the traffic more carefully so as to quickly discover the potential (潜在的) danger. The police have decided to add electronic monitoring instruments to catch the violations (违规者) and heavily fine drivers for it.

A．There was no life emergency lane at the scene of the accident.
B．In China, the left side of the highway is used as life emergency lane.
C．The life emergency lane at the scene of the accident was full of vehicles.
D．The police have decided to reduce electronic monitoring instruments after the accident.
40．According to the passage, why do the police ask drivers to be off the emergency lane?

注意：每个空格只填一．个．单词。
Women make up 50 percent of world’s population and yet they are not treated equally. They hold less than one-fifth of the all parliamentary (议会) seats around the world, occupy less than 19 percent of board (董事会) seats in Fortune 500 companies and earn 17 percent less than men for similar skills and positions. As a group, they are passed over and looked down on.
On March 8 every year, millions of women around the world celebrate International Women’s Day. It is possible that you may not have heard about the International Women’s Day in the United States. Yet Wom en's Day had its origin in the United States.
Women’s Day was first celebrated in February 1909 in the US to mark the one-year anniversary of the New York Garment Worker’s Strike of 1908. Women used the chance to fight against warring and fight for women’s vote rights.
Did you know that it was a Women’s Day protest in St. Petersburg in 1917, which led to the revolution (革命) for bringing down the Russian empire? After the Russian revolution, Women’s Day came to be celebrated as a
communist (共产主义的) or socialist (社会主义的) holiday. As a result, the United States government didn’t accept it as a holiday.
Today Women’s Day is celebrated in places such as China and Russia as a sort of state-approved Valentine's Day or Mother's Day. The tradition in these countries is to give flowers and gifts to the important women in one's life.
In 1975, the United Nations officially announced March 8 as International Women’s Day. Since then, it has been a practice to suggest an annual theme for each year. The theme for 2016 is "Pledge For Parity." It calls on women and men to challenge the present state and inspire positive change in their communities and workplaces.
There is a lot that needs to be done. As a society, we need to offer women and girls chances to make their dreams come true, have equal chances for leadership, respect and value differences, and develop a better work environment. This day challenges and reminds that everyone can be a leader in their own small way and can take positive steps to bring about gender equality.
Our world can truly be balanced when we use the potential that women have to offer. As we prepare children for the future, it is important that girls and women not be left behind.
Women’s present situation Women make up 56 of the world’s population. Women get 57 chances and less money while working.
58 of Women’s Day It was first celebrated in the US in 1909.
The Women’s Day protest in 1917 59 the revolution in Russia.
It was not 60 as a holiday in the United States.
The United Nations 61 March 8th as International Women’s Day in 1975.
Ways of celebrating Women’s Day Being 62 as a sort of state-approved Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day.
Flowers and gifts are 63 to the important women in one’s life.
64 of Women’s Day To help 65 women and girls’ dreams.
To help women get chances for leadership equally. To develop a better work environment for women.
B) 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为66-75的相应位置。
Are you a fan of traveling? Well, in 20 years, there may be a new place for you to spend your v66 - the moon. Last month, the European Space Agency (ESA) published ideas for b67 an international moon village by 2030. The village aims to open the door for deeper space exploration, and it will a68 be a tourist center.
In 1969 after US astronaut Neil Armstrong first arrived on the moon, he said the famous w69 “One small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind”. A70 to the head of the ESA, Johann, the moon village could be “the next giant leap for mankind”, because the technology for this is about 20 years away from coming t rue. One of the biggest challenges is getting the building materials into space w71 costing too much, said Matthias from the German Aerospace Center. Scientists s72 using the ice water and rocks on the moon to print 3-D building materials, so people don’t have to carry e73 from the Earth. When asked why the ESA chose the moon rather than Mars as the next goal, Johann said it’s b 74 the moon is about 144 times c loser to the earth than Mars. The ESA i 75 the US, Russia, China, India, Japan and some other countries to join in its moon plan. It hopes that “in the future, the moon can become a place where the nations of the w orld work together”.
