Do Dolphins Have a Language?
We know that dolphins make unique sounds but is that a language? If you’re interested in it, you are welcome to the activity recommended by Denise Herzing!
About Denise Herzing
Denise Herzing of Florida Atlantic University (FAU) is the organiser and research director of the Wild Dolphin Project, which has a goal of understanding dolphins’ social system, behaviour, and communication. For over thirty years, she has spent each summer watching Atlantic dolphins carefully in the Bahamas.
Activity Guide:
Purpose:
Dolphins use sound to communicate, but they can’t make sounds in the way we humans make. Out of the water dolphins can make different sounds by changing the shape of their blowhole (呼吸孔), which is similar to changing the shape of our own mouths. Underwater, though, they use a totally different system, and they make sounds without letting any air out. You can learn more about how that works here. In this activity we’re going to try to talk like a dolphin.
Materials:
Nothing! But find a partner, maybe a brother or sister or a parent — or if you have one, a dog or cat. After all, this activity is about communication between humans and animals.
How To Do It:
Take a deep breath, hold your nose to keep it shut, and try to communicate with your partner. If your partner is a pet, try saying its name or asking it to “come here”.
When you’re done, think about what made it hard, what solutions you found, and think why dolphins may have developed to communicate in this way.
Then listen to sounds from all kinds of sea animals and compare your dolphin sound to theirs.
1. What can we learn about Denise Herzing?
A. She holds the activity in FAU.
B. She is an expert in dolphins.
C. She wants to find a partner for her research.
D. She fell in love with dolphins when young.
2. What would you have to do for the activity?
A. Have a pet next to you. B. Keep breathing deeply.
C. Talk with your nose closed. D. Compare dolphins with other animals.
3. Where can the text be found?
A. In a diary. B. In a report.
C. In a travel brochure. D. In an activity book

When Clara Harlowe Barton was 11 years old, her older brother was seriously injured in a fall. Barton spent two years nursing him back to health until he fully got well. Although she had this early nursing experience, Barton would not work as a nurse until later in life.
At the age of seventeen, Barton worked as a teacher in Massachusetts. Twelve years later, she opened the first free public school in New Jersey. The school grew from only six students on the first day of classes to more than 200 students by the end of the school year. When the school opened in the fall of 1853, Barton was surprised to learn that a man had been hired as the school’s head teacher, being paid twice her salary to run the school that she had set up and made successful. Outraged at this news, she quit her teaching position. “I may sometimes be willing to teach for nothing, but if paid at all, I shall never do a man’s work for less than a man’s pay,” she said.
In 1861, the Civil War began; Barton began collecting supplies and got passes from the government to send her supplies and services to the front line and field hospitals. And then she became known as the “Angel of the Battlefield”.
In 1869, Barton took a trip to Switzerland where she learned about the International Red Cross. Later, Barton set up the American Red Cross. Under Barton’s leadership, the American Red Cross helped thousands of people in need.
During her lifetime, Barton gave her life and effort to the service and the care of others as a teacher, a Civil War nurse, and founder of the American Red Cross.
4. What does the underlined word “Outraged” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Sad. B. Moved. C. Angry. D. Frightened.
5. Why was Barton called the “Angel of the Battlefield”?
A. She set up a field hospital. B. She provided supplies for soldiers.
C. She did a man’s work in the front line. D. She helped thousands of people in need.
6. What made Barton set up the American Red Cross?
A. Her brother’s serious injury. B. Her dream to become a nurse.
C. Her experience in Switzerland. D. The soldiers’ encouraging praise.
7. What is the text mainly about?
A. Barton’s life of service to people in need. B. Barton’s rich experiences at different ages.
C. Why Barton set up the American Red Cross. D. How Barton opened the first free public school.

English is fast becoming the language of science around the world, but what is its future among everyday speakers? One expert points out that the percentage(比率) of native English speakers is declining(降低) globally while the languages of other rapidly growing regions are being spoken by increasing numbers of people. But English will continue to remain widespread and important.
However, British language scholar David Graddol says English will probably drop in dominance(主導(dǎo)) by the middle of this century to rank, after Chinese, about equally with Arabic, Hindi, and Urdu. “The number of people speaking English as a first language continues to rise, but it isn’t rising nearly as fast as the numbers of many other languages around the world, simply because the main population group has been largely in the less developed countries where languages other than English have been spoken,” he says.
In a recent article in the journal Science, Mr. Graddol noted that three languages that are not near the top of the list of the most widely spoken now might be there soon. These are Bengali, Tamil, and Malay, spoken in south and Southeast Asia.
David Crystal, the author of the Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language, says about 1.5 billion of the world’s six billion people speak it as a second tongue compared to the 400 million native speakers. But another expert on the English language says Mr. Graddol underestimates (低估) the future of its dominance. “Nobody quite knows what’s going to happen because no language has been in this position before. But all the evidence (證據(jù)) suggests that the English language snowball is rolling down a hill and is getting faster,” he said.
8. In David Graddol’s opinion, English will _______.
A. remain widespread and important
B. be more important than any other language
C. lose its dominant position
D. die away in the near future
9. How many experts does the passage mention who express their ideas about the future of English?
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5.
10. According to David Graddol, which of the following will possibly be one of the languages that will be most widely spoken?
A. Malay. B. Arabic. C. Urdu. D. German.
11. What should be the best title for the passage?
A. English Remaining the Dominant Position
B. The Future of English? Who Knows?
C. Opinions from Different Experts
D. The English Language Snowball Rolling Down

After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.
There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles(肌肉) relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.
Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep tell us that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This period of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.
If you can’t fall asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believed that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep!
12. The word “drowsy” in the last paragraph means _________.
A. sick B. stand up C. awake D. a little sleepy
13. This passage suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you______.
A. dream more often B. have poor health C. nervous D. breathe quickly
14. During REM, ________________.
A. your eyes move quickly B. you dream
C. you are restless D. both A and B
15. The average number of hours of sleep that an adult needs is __________.
A. approximately six hours B. around ten hours
C. about eight hours D. not stated here

Having a shy style isn’t necessarily a problem. It’s perfectly OK to take time to warm up new people and situations. Here are some tips for beating shy feelings.

___19___ Find group activities where you can be with people who share your interests. Give yourself a chance to practice socializing (社交) with these new people, and get to know them slowly.

For over thirty years, she has spent each summer watching Atlantic dolphins carefully in the Bahamas.(佛羅里達(dá)大西洋大學(xué)(FAU)的Denise Herzing是野生海豚項(xiàng)目的組織者和研究主任,該項(xiàng)目的目標(biāo)是了解海豚的社會系統(tǒng)、行為和交流。三十多年來,她每年夏天都在巴哈馬群島仔細(xì)觀察大西洋海豚)”可推知,Denise Herzing是海豚方面的專家。故選B。

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)How To Do It部分的“Take a deep breath, hold your nose to keep it shut, and try to communicate with your partner.(深呼吸,捂住你的鼻子,試著和你的伴侶交流)”可知,在這個(gè)活動中,你說話時(shí)要閉上鼻子。故選C。

The school grew from only six students on the first day of classes to more than 200 students by the end of the school year. When the school opened in the fall of 1853, Barton was surprised to learn that a man had been hired as the school’s head teacher, being paid twice her salary to run the school that she had set up and made successful. Outraged at this news, she quit her teaching position. “I may sometimes be willing to teach for nothing, but if paid at all, I shall never do a man’s work for less than a man’s pay,” she said.
In 1861, the Civil War began; Barton began collecting supplies and got passes from the government to send her supplies and services to the front line and field hospitals. And then she became known as the “Angel of the Battlefield”.
In 1869, Barton took a trip to Switzerland where she learned about the International Red Cross. Later, Barton set up the American Red Cross. Under Barton’s leadership, the American Red Cross helped thousands of people in need.
During her lifetime, Barton gave her life and effort to the service and the care of others as a teacher, a Civil War nurse, and founder of the American Red Cross.

English is fast becoming the language of science around the world, but what is its future among everyday speakers? One expert points out that the percentage(比率) of native English speakers is declining(降低) globally while the languages of other rapidly growing regions are being spoken by increasing numbers of people. But English will continue to remain widespread and important.
However, British language scholar David Graddol says English will probably drop in dominance(主導(dǎo)) by the middle of this century to rank, after Chinese, about equally with Arabic, Hindi, and Urdu. “The number of people speaking English as a first language continues to rise, but it isn’t rising nearly as fast as the numbers of many other languages around the world, simply because the main population group has been largely in the less developed countries where languages other than English have been spoken,” he says.
In a recent article in the journal Science, Mr. Graddol noted that three languages that are not near the top of the list of the most widely spoken now might be there soon. These are Bengali, Tamil, and Malay, spoken in south and Southeast Asia.
David Crystal, the author of the Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language, says about 1.5 billion of the world’s six billion people speak it as a second tongue compared to the 400 million native speakers. But another expert on the English language says Mr. Graddol underestimates (低估) the future of its dominance. “Nobody quite knows what’s going to happen because no language has been in this position before. But all the evidence (證據(jù)) suggests that the English language snowball is rolling down a hill and is getting faster,” he said.
8. In David Graddol’s opinion, English will _______.
A. remain widespread and important
B. be more important than any other language
C. lose its dominant position
D. die away in the near future
9. How many experts does the passage mention who express their ideas about the future of English?

10. According to David Graddol, which of the following will possibly be one of the languages that will be most widely spoken?
A. Malay. B. Arabic. C. Urdu. D. German.
11. What should be the best title for the passage?
A. English Remaining the Dominant Position
B. The Future of English? Who Knows?
C. Opinions from Different Experts
D. The English Language Snowball Rolling Down

After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.
There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles(肌肉) relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.
Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep tell us that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This period of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.
If you can’t fall asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believed that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep!
12. The word “drowsy” in the last paragraph means _________.
A. sick B. stand up C. awake D. a little sleepy
13. This passage suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you______.
A. dream more often B. have poor health C. nervous D. breathe quickly

A. your eyes move quickly B. you dream
C. you are restless D. both A and B
15. The average number of hours of sleep that an adult needs is __________.

C. about eight hours D. not stated here
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. D

She is the friend I trust mostly. To my joy, she agreed to help me as soo as she learned about a request. She checked my speech and correct my mistakes. I practised my speech with her several time to improve my pronunciation. She also asked me to call her where I met with dificulties.What’s more, she gave me a lot of encouragement. It was her kind help and encouragement built up my confidence. I’m really full with thanks for all she has done.

5.考查定冠詞/形容詞性物主代詞。句意:令我高興的是,她一知道這個(gè)要求就同意幫助我。上文提到作者向Anne求助,所以此處特指“我的請求”,應(yīng)用定冠詞the或形容詞性物主代詞my修飾名詞request,故將a改為the/my。
6.考查一般過去時(shí)。句意:她檢查我的發(fā)言,糾正我的錯誤。correct和動詞checked是并列的謂語動詞,應(yīng)用過去式。故將correct改為corrected。
7.考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)。句意:我和她練習(xí)了幾次演講來提高我的發(fā)音。time此處意為“次數(shù)”,是可數(shù)名詞,由several可知,此處應(yīng)用復(fù)數(shù)形式。故將time改為times。
8.考查狀語從句。句意;她還讓我遇到困難時(shí)給她打電話。結(jié)合句意可知,此處指“當(dāng)我遇到困難時(shí)”或“無論何時(shí)我遇到困難”,用when或whenever引導(dǎo)狀語從句。故將where改為when/whenever。
9.考查強(qiáng)調(diào)句型。句意:是她好心的幫助和鼓勵建立了我的信心。此處是強(qiáng)調(diào)句型:it is/was+強(qiáng)調(diào)部分+that(強(qiáng)調(diào)人可用who)+其他,被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分是主語her kind help and encouragement,built前應(yīng)加that。故在built前加that。
10.考查介詞。句意:我非常感謝她所做的一切。be full of充滿,固定短語,故將with改為of。
