For fishermen and sailors in the seaside town of Shangpan in Linhai, Zhejiang province, where recently 12 stranded（搁浅的）whales were found, it is not unusual to spot whales or dolphins in the sea — they would always call them haizi, or “son of the ocean”. And if the local fishermen spot such intelligent sea creatures in need, they will save them from danger without hesitation.

In the recent rescue of melon-headed whales, they tried their best to help as a 37-second video of a young man sleeping in the water holding a whale soon went viral online, with netizens applauding his constant efforts and caring heart in trying to keep the whale alive. “The melon-headed whale knew I was trying to save it and would be more cooperative and wouldn’t move.” said Lu Wenhui, a 21-year-old diver from Hangzhou Changqiao Polar Ocean Park, who held up the whale’s head so it could breathe easily. Lu had been staying in the water for 10 hours by 4 a.m. Wednesday after coming for the rescue work on Tuesday, when the stranded whales were first spotted.

“Whales are mammals and need to breathe in air — that’s why I had to hold its head, to ensure it could breathe smoothly the whole time,” Lu said. The stranded whales, after the struggling of being transported, were worn out when they arrived at the fish farm and might have drowned if they were left unattended.

The reason why the whales were stranded is still not clear. And these stranded whales were returned to the ocean because they are not adapted to artificial breeding environments on land.

4. What do local fishermen usually do after finding haizi in danger?

A. Ignore them. B. Feed them.

C. Transport them. D. Protect them.

5. Why does the author describe Lu’s rescue work?

A. To introduce the whales in detail. B. To voice his views on the diver.

C. To praise the efforts made by rescuers. D. To explain the value of the whales.

6. What can we say about the melon-headed whales according to the text?

A. They are rarely seen by locals.

B. They are used to breathing in the sea.

C. They aren’t suited to artificial surroundings.

D. They are fond of swimming near the seaside.

7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. Melon-headed Whales Were Stranded

B. Rescuers Went All out to Help Whales

C. Fishermen Transported Stranded Whales

D. Witnesses Voiced Opinions on Rescue Work

C

It had been a “long” and hard walk from home to the subway station for teenager Mandy Chan when she first put on hanfu in public. Chan is one of the founders of hanfu in Hong Kong. “It was a set with a cream-colored shirt, a brown jacket in China’s Ming dynasty style and a red pleated skirt made by me,” she recalled recently, almost 10 years later.

It was not the looks from others but her limited knowledge on the traditional Chinese clothing that had made her uncomfortable. Chan added “If anyone had asked what I was wearing, or the history behind it, I would have been afraid I couldn’t tell them the whole picture.”

However, her uneasiness had gradually gone with more in-depth research on traditional Chinese culture. Hanfu was the traditional clothing of China’s Han ethnic group that was formed in the main residential areas of the Han people in ancient China. The historical clothing has untold stories and ideas in every detail. The cutting and stitching line in the middle part of hanfu fits the spine (脊椎) of the human body and helps people to dress properly. This design, which has transcended (超越) itself as mere decoration, points to the qualities of the wearers as upright and moderate (温和的) individuals.,

“Instead of imitating people like what I used to do, I have jumped out of my comfort zone and found the style that suits me best,” Chan said. “Through hanfu, I have found myself and so many unexplored things in my life.” Chan added that she had found her lifelong passion through hanfu, which is a goal and dream that has never been absent from her life. Chan found she was not alone after falling in love with hanfu. She believes that classics will never go out of style and she herself has incorporated (使并入) hanfu into her everyday life.

8. Why did Chan feel uneasy when she first wore hanfu in public?

A. Her clothes were worn out.

B. She didn’t like looks from others.

C. Her clothes didn’t fit her properly.

D. She had a limited knowledge of hanfu.

9. What is special about hanfu in design according to paragraph 3?

A. It never goes out of fashion.

B. It shows personal qualities of its wearers.

C It has many different styles for choice.

D It appeals to people of all ages and social groups.

10. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. Hanfu has a strong influence on Chan.

B. Hanfu will be a big business in China.

C. Hanfu will take the lead in the fashion.

D. Hanfu allows her to get to know more people.

11. In which part of a magazine may we read this text?

A. Health. B. Travel. C. Sports. D. Culture.

D

Everyone is afraid of something. Maybe you're afraid of spiders, or heights, or dogs, or the dark. And traditionally, we’ve thought that's because you learned to be afraid. Probably because you had a bad experience with something at some point. But there's a different idea out there that's been getting more attention lately: the idea that fears aren’t just learned …they also can be inherited (遗传）.

It sounds like a wild idea.How do you inherit something as abstract as fear? But over the last fifty years, researehers have been studying just how much fears have to do with inheritance and genetics. And their results have been kind of surprising.

In this work，they’ve put a lot of effort into understanding one extreme kind of fear，called a phobia. To get a sense of how much genes influence fear，scientists have begun looking at identical twins. Since identical twins have almost the same DNA，researehers can figure out how heritable（遗传的）a fear is by comparing how often specific phobias appear in identical twins as opposed to other brothers or sisters. Because even though twins often have lots of similar experiences, they probably don't share the types of experiences that cause phobias — like getting bitten by a dog or falling out of a tree.

One 1998 study of 659 pairs of identical and fraternal twins（异卵双胞胎）in Australia looked at how many had a fear of blood. The study found that genetics accounted for 71 percent of the variation among those people, meaning genetic factors play a pretty big role in determining whether a person has some specific fear.

A 2016 study also found that fear of dental work was over 30 percent heritable. So, if you are afraid of going to the dentist, it really might not be your dentist's fault. Overall, first-degree relatives of people with phobias are more likely to have similar phobias than people with no family history.

So, it's pretty clear that phobias are heritable!

12. What does the author mean by saying the underlined sentence in Para. 2?

A. It's surprising that people know so little about inheritance and genetics.

B. It's unbelievable that people can inherit something so abstract like fear.

C. It's natural that people become afraid of things that they had bad experience with.

D. It's interesting that people are afraid of so many things such as spiders and the dark.

13. Why did the scientists choose identical twins as their test subjects?

A. They looks very much alike. B. They have similar personalities.

C. They share basically the same DNA. D. They have shared experiences.

14. What did the author try to prove by mentioning the studies in Para. 4 and 5?

A. Dentists are scary to many kids.

B. Most people have some kind of fear.

C. Fear of blood is the most common phobia.

D. Fear of things can be a result of genetic inheritance.

15. What does the passage mainly tell us?

A. People tend to learn to be afraid.

B. Fear has much to do with a bad experience with something.

C. Phobias have something to do with inheritance and genetics.

D. Twins are more likely to feel afraid of something than others.

Union is strength. Whenever you’re facing with difficulties or in a dilemma, cooperation plays an important part in getting you out of trouble. There was a time when I was too proud that I overlooked my classmate, refusing to work together with them. Therefore, it was no doubt that I was left alone, suffering from loneliness and failure. Unfortunately a teacher impressed on me the value of cooperation. From then on, I learned to help others and turn to my friends for the help whenever I had difficulty finish a task on my own. Surely cooperation made a great difference. Now I am getting well with my friends. My experience has taught me that only if we attach great importance with cooperation can we go beyond ourselves. As the saying go, “United we stand; divided we fall.”
