A Dolphins are our friends. They can use tools to solve problems although they don't have hands. For example,scientists have ever found that a dolphin can make a shy eel (鰻魚(yú)) come out of its hole with a dead fish.

Dolphins use different sounds to exchange information with each other. Scientists in Hawaii have developed a sign language to give instructions to dolphins,and the results are amazing. They find that dolphins not only understand the meaning of individual (個(gè)別的) words,but also understand the impor-tance of word order in a sentence.

Most animals enjoy playing —but dolphins seem to like making their games as challenging as possible. On a beautiful day in 1997,scientists at a beach watched a little dog going into the sea and swimming towards the dolphins. To their surprise,the dolphins came up to the dog and then started throwing it into the air. The dog seemed to enjoy the “game” and continued playing with the dolphins for more than an hour.

Dolphins live in a very different world from ours,but they are very good at our “IQ tests”. For example,they will jump out of the water when they hear a whistle (口哨) noise. They do this because they will get a fish as a prize.

There is still much to learn about these cute problem-solvers,but it is certain that watching a dolphin show is fun.

II.閱讀理解(12分鐘)

Sharks frighten most of us,but Daniel Weaver,a shark scientist,swims with them for a living!We asked him some questions about this unusual job.

So Daniel,what's it like to be a shark scientist?

Well,itJs a great job. I often travel to faraway places like South Africa and Fiji to study sharks. On the other hand,a shark scientist sometimes does boring desk work,such as writing reports. Also,shark scientists don't usually get paid a lot.

What qualities (品質(zhì)) do you need to become a shark scientist?

Shark scientists need to be wise and strong. They enjoy working outdoors and they have to be cool and patient. They also have to be quite brave!So do you think it's a dangerous job?

Well,sharks have up to 15 rows of sharp teeth. However,sharks hardly attack (攻擊) humans. There are over 350 kinds of sharks in the world and only about 10 kinds of them are dangerous to us. In fact,dogs kill more people every year than sharks!Humans kill over 12 million sharks a year for food and sport!

How do you become a shark scientist?

A shark scientist usually studies marine science or zoology at university. It's also good to get some work experience in an aquarium. In my opinion,I have the best job in the world!

B [2015 •烏魯木齊]

A soap opera called Tiger Mother and Cat Father is popular in China now. The tiger mother (acted by Zhao Wei) is pretty strict with her daughter and the little girl is not allowed to watch TV or play computer games. On the other hand,she makes all efforts to buy the expensive house near the key school in order to let her daughter have a better education. However,the cat father (acted by Tong Da-wei) has an opposite view of how to raise their child. He gives her daughter more independence and doesn’t make many rules for her. “Tiger Mother” “Cat Father”,which one is better? This not only causes argument on the TV show,but also brings a hot discussion around China.

In China,it seems in each family,there is a tiger mother and a cat father,even worse,some families have two tigers. Children canJt decide anything for themselves. Three questions are mostly asked by Chinese parents: Is homework done? Why come home so late? Go out with whom,boy or girl? The questions seem to care about their children,but usually make the gap (鴻溝) deeper. What's worse,Chinese mothers believe “key school” will bring a better future to their children. So Chinese children are under too much pressure. This soap opera fully shows us a common problem in China. And maybe it is the reason why such kind of TV shows can get popular.

Whether the tiger mother or cat father,respect-ing (尊重) for children and growing together are the keys to family education. Confidence,kindness,honesty and independence are the most important qualities to develop a child,not the grades. Just like a poem said ,“Educating children is like walking with a snail (蝸牛) ,and the steps are gentle and slow. ”
