　　People and animals have had a close relationship for thousands of years. There are lots of differences between them, but in some ways the similarities are more interesting. Like humans, dolphins are very clever animals. They have been trained by people to help underwater engineers, and there are also several examples of dolphins saving people's life.

　　Dolphins often swim in groups of hundreds in number. They communicate with each other using many sounds. They also play-swimming, diving, and jumping out of the water together.

　　They are very friendly and helpful to each other when in trouble, and take good care of a wounded one. Female dolphins help each other when they are giving birth to new babies. Young dolphins stay with their mothers for several years, and even when they are grown up, they sometimes return to their mothers in times of unhappiness.

1．What's the main idea of the first paragraph?

2．What's the main idea of the second paragraph?

3．What are the similarities (相似之处) between people and dolphins?

a．________________________

b．________________________

c．________________________

　　In the West, some people believe that personality can be predicted according to the time of the year the person was bor．From China comes the belief that the year of birth influences one's personality．In the past century, a new belief ahs arisen：the idea that personality is related to one's ABO blood type．People with blood type A, for example, are considered more likely to be serious, hard-working, and quiet, while people with blood type O are likely to be popular and outgoing, yet often unable to finish what they start．Though this belief continues to be strong, some people question whether it is true．

　　The blood-type personality theory(理论)started in Japan in 1927 when Furukawa Takehi noticed personality similarities and differences among his workers．This idea soon went out of fashion, but was brought back by a Japanese television host named Toshitaka Nomi in the 1970s．The belief is still strong in Japan and is increasingly popular in neighboring countries．Some young Koreans have taken to the theory．A recent study showed 76 percent of Koreans aged between13 and 64 believing in the blood-type personality connection．Though most Asians might believe in the blood-type theory, for many it seems harmless and not something to be taken too seriously．

　　Is the belief true?The scientists in Asia largely dismiss the belief as a modern-day superstition(迷信)．Most studies have failed to find any strong connection between blood and personality．Generally, scientists warn against making predictions or important decisions based on this questionable theory．

　　Long bus rides are like television shows．They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with commercials(商业广告)thrown in every three or four minutes．The commercials are unavoidable．They happen whether you want them or not．Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window．“Buy super Clean Toothpaste.” “Drink Good Wet Root Beer.” “Fill up with Pacific Gas.” Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of “You Need It Now!”

　　The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before．Usually some things have changed－new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road．The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so．If the driver is particularly reckless or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story．Will the driver pass the truck in time?Will the driver move into the right or the left-hand lane?After a while, of course, the excitement dies down．Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride．Food always makes bus rides more interesting．But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat．Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops．

　　The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning．You know it will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that．The seat, of course, has become harder as the hours have passed．By now you’ve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the arm rests－even with your hands crossed behind your head．The end comes just at the right time．There are just no more ways to sit．
