10、出最佳选项。AFor those of us whove ever been to a marine(海洋的)park,the best part was probably seeingthe beautiful and friendly dolphins.And the luckier people among us may have even had thechance to swim with these amazing creatures.At the same time,however,we cant help but think that these animals would b

11、e happier in the高一英语第 3 页 共 9 页wild,rather than be forced to perform for humans in captivity(囚禁).According to a recent study though,we neednt think that.The study,which was published inthe journal Applied Animal Behaviour Science,was led by scientist Isabella Clegg,who carriedout her research at a d

12、olphinarium(海豚馆)in France.As the first of its kind,the studys aim was to look at captivity from the animals point ofview,according to BBC News.Over the course of three years,Clegg and her team put together a series of experiments tofigure out how captive dolphins felt about their lives.“We wanted to

13、 find out what activities in captivity they like most,”she told BBC News.There were three kinds of experiment:one in which the dolphins were left alone,one inwhich toys were added to their pool,and one in which a human played with the dolphins.It was found that of the three types of experiment,the d

14、olphins seemed to enjoy playing withhumans the most.“Their leaping(跳跃)from the water during training,and their curious approaches to theedge(边 沿)of the pool appeared to be enthusiastic(热 情 的),”wrote BBC News sciencecorrespondent Victoria Gill.However,this doesnt necessarily mean dolphins are happier

15、 in captivity than they are in thewild.According to wildlife and nature platform One Green Planet,being raised in captivity couldactually be harmful for dolphins.“By being born into captivity,they will never learn the skills necessary to survive in the wild.This means that any animal that is born in

16、 captivity can never be sent back into the wild,”it wroteon its website.But while this may be true,at least it seems that captive dolphins still enjoy happy momentswith humans.21.What can we learn about the study on captive dolphins?A.It was carried out in a dolphinarium in the UK.B.It was the first

20、 State Best Baggers.He said every great bagger has a高一英语第 4 页 共 9 页few key talents.“They have to be fast,have great hand-eye coordination(协调能力)and be competitive andfocused,”Hasstedt said.Randle said bagging seemed natural to her and within a week of starting,co-workers werecommenting on her speed.“

21、I enjoy it,”Randle said.“Heavy things should be on the bottom,and everything should bestanding up.Its a little bit like Tetris(俄罗斯方块)or a puzzle.”To represent Metropolitan Market at state level,competitors first have to be the winner intheir store.They then compete against the best baggers in each o

22、f the companys five other localstores.In bagging contests,competitors are asked to place a number of items into a certain numberof paper bags.Judging is based on four criteria(标准):how fast the items are bagged,whether the bags arefilled in such a way that items inside remain standing when placed on

23、a table,how evenly(平均地)the weight is distributed(分配)among the bags and whether the bagger has a good attitude.In some contests,judges slice away(撕开)one side of the paper bags to make sure itemsremain standing,Hasstedt said.Theyre also looking to see if the bags are too full for a customerto pick up

24、with one hand,he said.Randle was a favorite to win the state competition.But once there,she was up against severalvery experienced competitors and had to deal with a loud audience that almost made her nervous.“There were people wearing cow bells and yelling(高喊),”she said.“It was loud.”Thats where Ha

25、sstedts mantra(原则)of“just stay focused and dont let things distract(使分心)you”came into play,she said.But Randle did what her coach told her and ended up winning the state title,filling three bagsin 47 seconds.24.According to the article,Talia Randle _.A.has always dreamed of being the fastest baggerB
