    Humpback whales

    Humpback whales are sometimes called performers of the ocean. This is because they can make impressive movements when they dive. The name “humpback”, which is the common name for this whale, refers to the typical curve shape the whale’s back forms as it dives.
    Sometimes the humpback will dive with a fantastic movement, known as a breach. During breaching the whale uses its powerful tail flukes to lift nearly two-thirds of its body out of the water in a giant leap. A breach might also include a sideways twist with fins stretched out like wings, as the whale reaches the height of the breach.
    A humpback whale breathes air at the surface of the water through two blowholes which are located near the top of the head. It blows a double stream of water that can rise up to 4 meters above the water.
    The humpback has a small dorsal fin located towards the tail flukes about two-thirds of the way down its back. Other distinguishing features include large pectoral fins, which may be up to a third of the body length, and unique black, and white spots on the underside of the tail flukes. These markings are like fingerprints: no two are the same.
    Humpback whales live in large groups. They communicate with each other through complex “songs”.
    		Quick Facts
    Size:
    		14m~18m in length
    30~50 tons in weight
    Living environment:
    		Open ocean and shallow coastline waters
    Migration:
    		From warm tropical (热带的) waters, where they breed, to cold polar waters, where they eat.
    Diet:
    		Shellfish, plants and fish of small size
    Hunting:
    		Sometimes in groups, in which several whales form a circle under the water, blowing bubbles that form a “net” around a school of fish. The fish are then forced up to the surface in a concentrated mass.
    Current state:
    		Endangered: it is estimated that there are about 5000~7000 humpback whales worldwide.

    D
    Are you afraid of sharks? You shouldn’t be! Below we cleared up the main myths about one of the world’s most perfectly formed creatures …
    All sharks are the same.
    This is absolutely not true. There are nearly four hundred species of sharks and they vary widely in habitat, size, features, diet and lifestyle. They range from the cigar shark, which is about 15 centimetres long, to the whale shark, which can be up to about nine meters long. More than 50 percent of sharks are less than a metre long and more than 90 percent are less than two metres long. And their habitat ranges from shallow to deep water and from the Arctic to the Tropic.
    ___________________
    This is not true, either. In fact, many shark populations are decreasing. The chief reason for this is that hundreds of thousands of them are caught in fishing nets. Depending on where they are caught. They are either killed for their fins(鳍), which are used in shark’s fin soup, or they are tossed back into the sea because they are unwanted. Almost all sharks which are discarded in this way die. Also, sharks mature late in life and produce very few young. If the current reduction in numbers continues, the ecological balance of the oceans will be severely threatened.
    Sharks will always attack you
    This is nonsense. The chances of being attacked by a shark are minimal. You are 250 times more likely to be killed by lightning than by a shark, and your chances of being killed by lightning are practically zero.
    However, if you are planning to take a swim in shark territory, then follow these simple rules:
    Avoid swimming at dawn or duck when visibility decreases.
    Avoid areas where there are breaking waves. Turbulent(汹涌的) water makes it difficult for sharks to see and determine whether you are prey(猎物).
    Do not wear jewellery in the water. Sharks are attracted to shiny fishes, and jewellery may resemble their scales(鳞片).
    Do not swim near schools of small fish, which are the favorite food of some sharks.
    68. The underlined word “myths” in the first paragraph means ____.
    A. an idea or story that many people believe but which is not true   
    B. something that is impossible to understand or explain or about which little is known
    C. a feeling of surprise        
    D. something that you are curious to know 
    69. From the passage we can learn sharks ____.
    A. look alike B. are dangerous   
    C. usually live in deep sea    D. hardly attack people
    70. Which of the following is proper for the blank in the third paragraph?
    A. Sharks’ fin soup is nutritious                
    B. There are too many sharks in the sea
    C. Many shark populations are decreasing  
    D. Sharks produce many young
    71. Which of the following rules should you follow when you’re going to swim in shark areas?
    A. Don’t swim before day breaks.              
    B. Choose areas where there are big waves.
    C. Wear something shiny when swimming.
    D. Choose areas where there are many small fish.

    Thirty years ago, when the movie version of my novel Jaw was published, few people including me knew very much about great white sharks. For hundreds of generations, we humans have been taught to fear and hate sharks, and the movie touched a nerve of horror.
    Now something long thought impossible has happened. A great white shark was successfully held in capacity for several months. In August last year a very young female great white shark was caught accidentally in a fisherman's net off Huntington Beach, California, and then kept in an ocean pen (栏栅) for 25 days. After being moved to the Monterey Bay Aquarium (水族馆), she grew well in the million-gallon Outer Bay Exhibit. She was so lovely that people all liked her very much. Perhaps she was too young to understand that the big tank was not her natural environment, because she didn't hit her head against the walls in an attempt to swim away as others of her kind have done. And she began to feed almost immediately on small fish offered to her on a pole. In the months that followed, the shark suffered no serious injuries, caught no diseases, and grew noticeably larger, breaking all records for great white sharks in capacity. The longest that any other great white shark had been held was 16 days.
    Until February 23, that is, when she hit and killed a soup fin shark (翅鲨) , as she grew bigger and her behavior grew more aggressive, officials at the Aquarium knew the time had come. On March 31, after 198 days in the aquarium, the great white shark was released into the Pacific.
    Scientists still have a lot to learn about sharks, especially great white sharks which are now considered to be in danger. Scientists do know that sharks are necessary to ocean health. Remove any significant animal from the sea food chain and you will risk destroying the balance of nature.
    72. We can see that in the film Jaw the shark was once described as______.
    A. a pet of children       B. a horror to human beings
    C. a friend of the aged D. a guard of its owner
    73. Different from the others of her kind, the young female great white shark was somewhat _____in the beginning.
    A. terrible and dangerous      B. fierce and cruel  C. loyal and friendly    D. gentle and lovely
    74. By saying that "officials at the aquarium knew the time had come", the writer probably means that the female great white shark______.
    A. had to be killed    B. escaped from the big tank
    C. had to be set free         D. began to hit and kill other animals
    75. What conclusion can be drawn from the text?
    A. We should protect great white sharks as well as other ocean animals.
    B. The female great white shark will be attacked by some other animals.
    C. Great white sharks are becoming more and more
    D. We should kill the enemies of white sharks in the oceans.

    Some Chinese new - rich like eating shark fin soup because they think it shows their class. However, for the Chinese NBA idol Yao Ming, doing so is unacceptable as the practice has led to the overfishing of sharks.
    When Yao and his wife Ye Li got married in 2007, they publicly announced that they would not allow shark fin soup to be served at their wedding banquet.
    Actually, Yao had been saying no to shark fins since 2006, when he was appointed as the Goodwill Ambassador for wild life protection.
    Now, the 226 - cm big guy is resorting to his personal influence to encourage more to say no to eating the soup and to raise awareness of protecting animals. “Sharks are friends of human beings. They are not our food,” Yao said.

Recent reports about Yao’s retirement have saddened tens of thousands of basketball fans both at home and abroad. Yet Yao's influence goes far beyond the basketball courts.
    Yao has engaged himself in charity and public welfare services for quite a while. When the devastating 8.0 －magnitude earthquake hit Wenchuan in southwest China in 2008 , Yao donated 2 million yuan. “When I was a little boy, my parents and teachers told me to help others and to be a good man,” Yao recalled. “But I could nor donate then because I had not much pocket money. After I moved to Houston, I got involved in quite a number of community service activities and I felt a strong sense of achievement when I got people together,”Yao said.
    Like Yao, newly crowned French Open champion Li Na has showed her willingness to donate. Li gave 480,000 yuan of her prize money from the open, plus 20,000 yuan from her own pocket, to a local nursing home in her hometown. Another Chinese sports icon, hurdler Liu Xiang, has also been actively involved in charity for years.

    C．Yao Ming has encouraged more people to stop eating shark fin soup and protect animals．
