【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 19, 51yearold Rainer Schimpf and his team set out to film South Africa39。s Sardine Run off the coast of Point Elizabeth Sardine Run, the annual migration(遷徙)of billions of sardines (a small sea fish), is a big draw for large predators, especially the dolphin and whale. Predators are animals that kill and eat other animals. In an attempt to obtain the best images of the incredible natural phenomenon, Rainer dived into the middle of a spinning ball of fish. Suddenly the sea moved around violently, and the experienced diver and his photographer Heinz Toperczer, who was filming from the boat, instantly realized something strange was going on. Suddenly dolphins shot out of the water, a white spray came out and then a whale appeared and grasped Rainer While Toperczer was filming the terrifying turn of events with his video camera, Rainer, who was trapped had first and engulfed(吞噬)in darkness inside the whales mouth, was trying to survive. Nothing can actually prepare you for the event when you end up inside the pure instinct(本能), the diver told Barcroft TV. Knowing in the whale39。s mouth, I tried to control my fear. But I was convinced that it was going to dive down and release me much deeper in the ocean. The whale quickly realized he was no sardine! As the whale turned sideways, he opened his mouth slightly to release me, and I was washed out, together with what felt like tons of water, of his mouth, recalled Rainer. Though the entire incident lasted just seconds, it felt like a year to Rainer. Still holding his underwater camera in his hand, the diver swam to his boat, where he was quickly rescued by the members of the team. The terrible adventure did not disturb Rainer for too long. After checking to ensure he had no injuries, the diver returned to the water to seek out more.（1）Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

Gremel was able to make this amazing donation because he purchased $1,000 worth of Walgreens stock seven decades ago whose value has grown recently. A single man with no kids, Gremel has lived in the same Chicago house for 95 years, and has always lived simply, neighbor Patrick Falso told TODAY. Falso said he heard Gremel say many times the money wasn39。t mine to begin with and that he always intended to give it away. The Gremel Wildlife shelter was founded on June 4. Illinois Audubon Society president Jim Herkert said Gremel39。s donation was extremely generous. It39。s allowing us to protect a really valuable and important possession and realize one of Gremel39。s wishes that we could find a place where people could e out and experience nature the way he did as a kid, Herkert told TODAY. After doing all this, this past weekend, Gremel adopted an old Chihuahua（吉娃娃犬）. Winnie the dog was picked up as a homeless dog several months ago. She suffered from a kind of cancer, which was treated—and all she needed was a loving home, which Colleen Collins, the founder of Perfect Pooches Adoption Agency, was determined to find. Gremel had lost his own beloved Chihuahua earlier this year. When he reached out to Collins about Winnie, she felt this could be a good match. That feeling grew when she brought Winnie to his house for a meet and greet, and Winnie was introduced not only to Gremel but also some of his friends and neighbors.
