9、an hour to五、阅读理解ASharks use their good sense of smell to search for prey(猎物).But a new study shows that the rising levels of carbon dioxide in the ocean could reduce sharks ability to find food.Its bad news for a healthy ocean.Sharks are top predators(掠食动物) and are like the oceans weed controllers.D

10、ixson works at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts.Her earlier work has shown that clown fish in acidifying(酸化的) water act strangely.“We want to expand this research to sharks,because we know how important it is for sharks to find their food through their sense of smell,” said

11、Dixson.Her team started by placing sharks in each of three different pools for five days.Each pool had a different level of carbon dioxide in it.The first had the same amount as todays ocean water.The second had a level of carbon dioxide that scientists expect to reach by 2050.The third pool had the

12、 highest level of carbon dioxide that could develop by the year 2100.Sharks werent allowed to eat any food while in the pools.This made sure that they would be hungry.Then,Dixson released the sharks one at a time into a pool with two side-by-side streams of flowing water.In one stream,the researcher

13、s pumped water,in which a dead squid had been overnight.This water smelled strongly of the squid.The other stream contained ocean water with no scent(气味).Because each stream flowed at the same rate and in the same direction,the squid smell stayed in its stream.The sharks could choose to swim in eith

14、er stream.Sharks that had been swimming for five days in pools of regular ocean water spent more than 60 percent of their time in the squid-scented stream.The same was true for sharks that had been in water with the carbon dioxide level that could develop by the year 2050.But sharks exposed to the h

15、ighest level of carbon dioxide spent just 15 percent of their time in the squid-scented stream.1.Why did the writer mention the sharks,smell at the beginning of the passage?A.Because the writer appreciates their ability to find food.B.Because the writer considers them dangerous to human beings.C.Bec

16、ause the writer intends to show how to control weed in the ocean.D.Because the writer worries about the sharks in the ocean.答案D解析推理判断题。作者在第一段中提到鲨鱼的嗅觉,主要是引出主题,即:海洋环境的改变会对鲨鱼的觅食能力造成危害。因此可以推知作者担心生活在海洋中的鲨鱼,故选D项。2.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.What the ocean in the future will be like.B.Who helped Di

17、xson conduct the study.C.What kinds of pools were used during the study.D.What the levels of carbon dioxide will be at in the ocean in the future.答案C解析段落大意题。根据第三段的内容可知,本段主要是讲Dixson和她的团队把鲨鱼放在哪些池子里做实验,故选C项。3.The researchers pumped water where a dead squid had been overnight to .A.help the sharks look

18、for foodB.test the sharks sense of smellC.prove that sharks like eating squidsD.explain why carbon dioxide in the ocean affects sharks答案B解析推理判断题。根据第四段的内容“Inonestream,theresearcherspumpedwater,inwhichadeadsquidhadbeenovernight.Thiswatersmelledstronglyofthesquid.Theotherstreamcontainedoceanwaterwithno

19、scent(气味).Becauseeachstreamflowedatthesamerateandinthesamedirection,thesquidsmellstayedinitsstream.Thesharkscouldchoosetoswimineitherstream.”可推知研究人员往水池里放了带鱿鱼味的水,其目的是测试鲨鱼在特定的环境下能否闻到那种气味,故选B项。4.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph suggest?A.Sharks like the squid-scented stream bette

20、r.B.Sharks like the stream with the high level of carbon dioxide.C.Sharks spent 15% of their time in the squid-scented stream.D.The high level of carbon dioxide can affect the sharks,ability to smell.答案D解析句意猜测题。画线句子的意思是“但是,曾置身于最高浓度的二氧化碳中的鲨鱼只在鱿鱼味的水中待了仅仅15%的时间”。由此可知,Dixson团队的实验发现,鲨鱼的嗅觉的确受到二氧化碳浓度的影响,故选

21、D项。BTailSpinTwo dolphins race around in a big pool in the Ocean Park.The smaller dolphin,Grace,shows off a few of her tricks,turning around and waving hello to the crowd.The most amazing thing about her,however,is that shes even swimming at all.She doesnt have a tail.Grace lost her tail as a baby wh

22、en she got caught up in a fish trap.When the dolphin arrived at the Ocean Park in December 2005,she was fighting for her life.“Is she going to make it?” Her trainer,Abbey Stone,feared the worst.Grace did make itbut her tail didnt.She ended up losing her flukes and the lower part of her peduncle.Over

23、 the past six years,she has learned to swim without her tail.Dolphins swim by moving their flukes and peduncle up and down.Grace taught herself to move another waylike a fish! She pushes herself forward through the water by moving her peduncle from side to side.The movements put harmful pressure on

24、Graces backbone.So a company offered to create a man-made tail for her.The tail had to be strong enough to stay on Grace as she swam but soft enough that it wouldnt hurt her.The first time Grace wore the artificial tail,she soon shook it off and let it sink to the bottom of the pool.Now,she is still

25、 learning to use the tail.Some days she wears it for an hour at a time,others not at all.“The new tail isnt necessary for her to feel comfortable,” says Stone,“but it helps to keep that range of motion(动作) and build muscles(肌肉).”Now,the dolphin is about to get an even happier ending.This month,Grace

26、 will star in DolphinTale,a film that focuses on her rescue and recovery.Her progress has inspired more than just a new movie.Many people travel from near and far to meet her.Seeing Grace swim with her man-made tail gives people so much courage.5.When Grace first arrived at the Ocean Park,her traine

27、r worried about her .A.physical conditionB.potential abilityC.chance of survivalD.adaptation to the surroundings答案C解析细节理解题。根据第二段第二、三两句可知,当格雷斯刚刚来到这个海洋公园时,训练员非常担心她能否活下来。6.A man-made tail is created for Grace to .A.let her recover fasterB.make her comfortableC.adjust her way of swimmingD.help her perfo
