new and unusual experience for them. It is frequently asked whether “swimwithdolphins” tourism should be discontinued. The advice is that dolphins should be given enough periods of time throughout the day when they are not exposed to tourism. Permitted interactions should not be too disturbing to the dolphins since there could be mothers and calves (幼崽 ) present in dolphin groups. There should also be educational campaigns about the creatures and what is likely to cause danger to them. It is not easy to explain to someone that they cannot fulfill their lifelong dreams because the dolphins are resting, or that a mother dolphin and calf are in the area. But if we are to enjoy these remarkable animals and not just use them for our entertainment, then we must carefully monitor the “swimwithdolphins” industry worldwide. 28. What makes “swimwithdolphins” tourism popular? A. The local government’s encouragement. B. The improvement of people’s living standard. C. The increasing number of tourists. D. The high profits of the industry. 29. Why are young dolphins more likely to swim with humans? A. They do this out of curiosity. B. They like humans better. C. They are less sensitive. D. They are fearless. 30. What should the “swimwithdolphins” industry do according to Paragraph 4? A. Avoid interaction with young dolphins. B. Make people know the hidden threat to dolphins. C. Strictly limit the expansion of the industry. D. Expose dolphins to tourists only in the daytime. 31. What can be inferred from the last sentence of the passage? A. The industry has been a hot topic worldwide. B. The industry aims to bring happiness to humans. C. The industry enables humans to swim with dolphins. D. The industry will harm dolphins without proper control. D Scientists have found amounts of water molecules inside rocks and soil samples from Mars before. But an ancient meteorite(隕石 ) found recently contains 10 times more water and much more oxygen than any Martian meteorite ever before discovered. What’s so wild about this wet discovery? It could mean that the Red Pla once had enough water to have liquid flowing on the pla’s surface. It was once believed that if Mars ever had water at all, its water would have been small amounts of ice below the surface or existing in the soil only as hydrogen and oxygenthe elements that make up water. But recent discoveries have shown that Mars probably had a much wetter history than formerly thought. The meteorite, nicknamed Black Beauty, was found in Africa’s Sahara Desert in 2022. Only about 110 meteorites from Mars have ever been found. Scientists believe most Martian meteorites arrived on our pla during one large asteroid crash(小行星碰撞 )that sent rocks falling toward Earth long ago. Black Beauty is about billion years old. Its discovery is the first time scientists have been able to study such an ancient Martian rock. It’s also one of the first times scientists have been able to study a piece of the pla’s ancient surface. The sample’ s water molecules were sent out when scientists heated the meteorite to analyze it. Scientists think the meteorite’ s hydrogen and oxygen molecules are so plentiful because water was flowing on Mars at the time this meteorite fell to Earth, or because these molecules were once sealed in large quantities in Mars’ s crust. Black Beauty might do more than just unlock secrets from the Red Pla’ s past. These discoveries could also help scientists understand new data about Mars that’ s being sent from the robotic rovers currently gathering information on the pla. 32. People used to think that _______. A. there was little water on Mars B. Mars had a lot of flowing water C. a large quantity of ice was Mars D. Mars was much wetter than Earth 33. What do we know about Black Beauty? A. It was discovered in Seattle in the USA. B. It is the biggest of 110 meteorites form Mars. C. It landed on Earth after an asteroid crash. D. It has a history of million years. 34. How did the scientists research Black Beauty? A. By cutting it into pieces. B. By dipping it into water. C. By burning it on a fire. D. By burying it into a desert. 35. The passage is mainly about _________. A. a rock from the center of Mars. B. a major Martian meteorite discovery C. a new discovery on the Red Pla D. a number of meteorites from Red Pla 第二節(jié) (共 5 小題,每小題 2 分, 滿分 10 分) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項,選項中有兩項為多余選項。 For college graduates, it is of vital importance to write a
