· Start your boat only after the whales are more than 100 metres from your vessel.

· Leave the area slowly, gradually moving faster when you are more than 300 metres from the whales.

· Approach and leave slowly, avoiding sudden changes in speed or direction.

· Avoid disturbing groups of resting whales.

· Keep at low speeds and remain in the same direction if traveling side by side with whales.

· When whales are traveling close to shore, avoid crowding them near the shore or coming between the whales and the shore.

· Limit the time spent with any group of whales to less than 30 minutes at a time when within 100 to 200 metres of whales.

· If there is more than one vessel at the same observation spot, be sure to avoid any boat position that would result in surrounding the whales.

· Work together by communicating with other vessels, and make sure that all operators are aware of the whale watching guidelines.

【小題4】D


解析:

【小題1】從第一段最后一句話可知：這些對(duì)各種各樣的鯨都必須遵守的操作規(guī)則被強(qiáng)烈地推薦給船只操作員。

【小題2】從操作規(guī)則第四、五條可知：在一百米之外，才能啟動(dòng)船只；三百米之外，才逐漸加速。

【小題3】從操作規(guī)則第八條可知：當(dāng)船只和鯨并排前進(jìn)時(shí)，保持低速且應(yīng)同一個(gè)方向前進(jìn)。

【小題4】從操作規(guī)則第二條可知：靠近鯨不能低于一百米，然后停止，但要讓發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)開(kāi)著。所以最近的安全觀察距離應(yīng)是100米。

Shower every day? Rinse (漂洗) after brushing teeth? These “healthy” habits could be very bad for you. Could your daily routine be ruining your health? We all know that smoking, drinking and bingeing (狂飲，狂吃) on junk food are behaviors to avoid if we want to keep fit—but an increasing amount of research is emerging to suggest other seemingly good habits could also be bad for us. Here are some daily sins, and what we can do about them.

Daily sin 1: shower every day

The modern overemphasis on personal hygiene (衛(wèi)生，保健) could do harm to our skin, according to Dr. Nick Lowe, consultant doctor at the Cranley Clinic in London. He says, “Using hot water combined with harsh soaps can strip the skin of its oils, resulting in dryness, crashing and even infection.”

If the prospect of skipping a daily shower horrifies you, at least make sure you wash with cooler water, he says. If you have a tendency towards dry skin, use a soap-free shower gel or watery cream.

Daily sin 2: sleeping eight hours a day

The notion of getting eight hours of solid sleep each night is a “modern convention” that could leave you feeling more tired, says Professor Jim Horne, of Lough borough University’s Sleep Research Centre. “A short four to 15-minute power nap can be as effective as an extra hour at night.” He adds, “This modern notion that waking in the middle of the night is a bad thing can actually be destructive to the quality of our sleep. For instance we wake at 3 a.m. and lie there becoming anxious about not sleeping, whereas we should simply get up and occupy our minds with something distracting but relaxing—such as doing a jigsaw (拼圖) or reading a book—until our bodies tell us we’re ready to sleep again.”

Daily sin 3 : rinsing after brushing teeth

Fight the urge to rinse after cleaning your teeth, says dentist Dr. Phil Stemmer, from The Fresh Breath Centre in London. “Rinsing washes away the protective fluoride (氟化物) coating left by the toothpaste, which would otherwise add hours of protection.” And whatever you do don’t clean your teeth straight after eating, he says. “The best routine is to brush your teeth before meals, and then freshen up after using an alcohol-free mouthwash.”

59. Which can be a proper title of the passage?

A. Several bad habits in our daily life.

B. Several bad habits about taking showers.

C. Do’s and don’ts.

D. Sleeping too much is a sin.

60. What is a good way of taking showers according to the passage?

A. Take a hot water shower every day.

B. Use harsh soaps when taking showers in order to get rid of the oil on your skin.

C. Use cooler water if you take showers very frequently.

D. Always avoid soap when taking showers.

61. Which of the following statements on sleeping is right according to the passage?

A. Getting 8 hours of sound sleep is quite necessary for a fresh work day.

B. A half-hour snap is as effective as an extra hour at night.

C. It is a very bad habit to wake in the middle of night and read a book.

D. Getting 8 hours of sleep actually will make you feel less fresh than 7 hours of sleep do.

62. We should not rinse immediately after brushing teeth because__.

A. the mouthwash will react with something left by the toothpaste.

B. the mouthwash will take away something left by the toothpaste.

C. the mouthwash will left a coat of fluoride on the teeth.

D. the mouthwash will be useless if the teeth have already be brushed.
