草皮灌溉

首页 > 试题列表 > 单题解析

204591. （2023•高新一中•高二下期末） The 2022 World Cup has come to an end.Let's review some facts about the hi-tech turf （草皮） that Qatar had spent much of its energy on.
   Qatar，a desert nation，had three main challenges：water，air and light.It got almost every condition going against it.The water used to irrigate （灌溉） the grass is low quality，mainly treated seawater.Because of the desert sun，Qatar's stadiums were built for maximum shade—great for preventing heatstroke，but less ideal for photosynthesis （光合作用）.Inside the nearly-closed stadiums，there's very little air movement.
   Qatar identified pitch （球场） quality as a particular issue and set up the Aspire Sport Turf Research and Development Centre to find the best types of grass for use in the harsh climate，testing 24 different varieties.Eventually，Atlas Turf's grass was chosen as much for its appearance as its tolerance for the tough conditions Qatar faces.
   The following pictureow some tech facts about the turf，which ensures a consistent and durable surface for the players in all weather conditions.

[解析]

（1）细节理解题。根据第二段的Qatar，a desert nation，had three main challenges：water，air and light.It got almost every condition going against it.（卡塔尔是一个沙漠国家，面临着三大挑战：水、空气和光线。几乎所有的条件都对它不利。），倒数第二段的Qatar identified pitch （球场） quality as a particular issue and set up the Aspire Sport Turf Research and Development Centre to find the best types of grass for use in the harsh climate，testing 24 different varieties.Eventually，Atlas Turf's grass was chosen as much for its appearance as its tolerance for the tough conditions Qatar faces.（卡塔尔认为球场质量是一个特别的问题，并建立了Aspire运动草坪研发中心，以寻找适合恶劣气候的最佳草种，测试了24种不同的草种。最终，Atlas Turf的草被选中，不仅是因为它的外观，还因为它对卡塔尔面临的艰苦条件的耐受力。）及图画中的Technology in the grass（草里的科技）可知，从文章中我们可以了解到卡塔尔不利于草生长的条件，草坪的供应商，卡塔尔为选择最合适的草坪所做的努力和制作草皮所涉及的技术，即①③④⑤，故选A。
（2）推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的Eventually，Atlas Turf's grass was chosen as much for its appearance as its tolerance for the tough conditions Qatar faces.（最终，Atlas Turf的草被选中，不仅是因为它的外观，还因为它对卡塔尔面临的艰苦条件的耐受力。）和第二段的Because of the desert sun，Qatar's stadiums were built for maximum shade—great for preventing heatstroke，but less ideal for photosynthesis （光合作用）.（由于沙漠的阳光，卡塔尔的体育场都是为了最大程度的遮阳而建造的﹣﹣﹣这对防止中暑很有帮助，但对光合作用就不太理想了。）可知，选择Atlas Turf的草可能是因为它是耐阴的，故选C。
（3）推理判断题。根据图中的文字Artificial threads：They are sewn 18 centimeters deep into the natural turf，which enables faster recovery of the turf.（人工线：在天然草皮上缝18厘米深，可以更快地恢复草皮。）可知，草皮的损坏可以很快恢复。A．24 types of grass have been planted on the turf.草坪上种了24种草；B．Damage to the turf can be recovered quickly.草皮的损坏可以很快恢复；C．Artificial grass covers 70 percent of the turf.人造草覆盖了70%的草皮；D．Water can be saved at the bottom of the turf.水可以保存在草皮的底部。故选B。

203598. （2025•交大附中•高一上期末）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Health Benefits of Rollerblading（滑旱冰） Rollerblading is a popular sport nowadays.（1）       .These activities require a combination of balance，coordination，and physical fitness，making the sport an excellent form of cardiovascular exercise（有氧运动）.Here are some health benefits of rollerblading according to doctors.
Keep bones healthy
    With age，bones tend to lose their definition and density.Rollerblading is a form of exercise that can reduce the risk of osteoporosis（骨质疏松）. "Unlike running and other high-impact activities，rollerblading reduces the stress on your knees and ankles.（2）       ."Says Florence Comite，founder of the Comite Center for Precision Medicine & Health.
（3）
    Rollerblading requires use of an individual's core muscles to keep them upright and balanced."Rollerblading uses a greater side-to-side striding motion，"Dr.Comite says."It requires using your arms and balancing which involves your core muscle to stabilize your spine."A recent research also found that exercises such as rollerblading and roller-skating have been shown to improve balance among older adults.
Burn calories
    Not only is rollerblading fun，but it can also burn a lot of calories in a short period of time.According to Harvard Medical School，an individual can burn upwards of 600 calories per hour when rollerblading.（4）       .
Boost mood
    （5）       .That's because the body will release endorphins，a biochemical that helps enhance your mood.Plus，if you love the feeling of rollerblading，the benefits may be even better.A 2017 review published in Brain Plasticity indicates that enjoying your workout can make its lift to your mood last up to a day after you've finished exercising.

A.Improve balance
B.Strengthen arm muscles
C.Usually the body will release chemicals
D.After rollerblading，it's probable that you'll feel great
E.So it's a suitable exercise for people with bone problems
F.Therefore，rollerblading can be a great choice if you want to lose weight
G.Participants can engage in activities such as speed skating and freestyle tricks

212962. （2023•铁一中学•高二上期中）     As both world and Olympic champions，Chinese diving queens Quan Hongchan and Chen Yuxi were，unsurprisingly，among the brightest stars on the platform at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou.
    Then，after winning the women's synchronized 10 m platform gold together as partners on Saturday，the two young aces battled it out in the women's 10 m platform on Tuesday，when Quan edged out Chen to win the title by a margin （领先幅度） of just 2.55 points.

    "Quan is actually a very easygoing person.She is always the funniest one in our team.She always carries a smile，and she is the reason why our team always has such a great atmosphere，" said 18-year-old Chen during an exclusive interview with China Daily.
    "She shines in so many ways.She has a very positive mindset （思想），and she is always energetic during training and competition.I hope she will always have the heart she has now and keeps chasing her dreams."
    "Chen is a pretty and charming girl，who never easily gives up，" said Quan.
    "As athletes，we both have the desire to win.It's a lie if we say we don't.That is why we both work extremely hard and fight for the same goal.We never stop pushing ourselves，" said Chen. "But this is a very positive competition.Such a life，as a top national team diver，is a very special and unforgettable experience.She is the best encouragement to me，and that's why I'm growing."
    But in Quan's eyes，Chen is the more hardworking one of the two." She always tries her best at training and competition.I'm not as hardworking ae is，" Quan added.
    "The Asian Games gold is just another decoration of my career，and it's just a small test ahead of the Paris Olympics.There are still problems we need to fix，" said Chen.
    "I hope my partner always has a champion's heart to face future competitions and all of the challenges ahead."

220550. （2016•七十中•高二下二月） Plant cloning has been an agricultural technique used by farmers and gardeners for centuries．Grafting （嫁接） is a common form of plant cloning．Many plants in nature actually clone themselves and reproduce asexually．
Cloned plants are much more predictable than normal plants，so their yield （产量） is more reliable．Cloned plants also reproduce faster，limiting the amount of time between planting and harvesting．It is also often cheaper to produce seeds through cloning than through traditional methods．Plants can essentially be optimized so that farmers or individual growers always have the best seeds available．With more yield at a faster rate，farms can produce more food for more people while decreasing overall costs．
Cloning can be used to wipe out diseases that previously killed off entire fields of crops．This would make plants immune （免疫的） to the kinds of diseases that farmers and gardeners around the world fear each year．Crop failures due to disease and virus could become a thing of the past．Also，plants that are near extinction can be brought back to life through cloning．
Through cloning scientists can develop"super"fruits and vegetables of superior nutritional quality．This could make for a healthier population overall．This is already being done through selective pollination （授粉），and genetic cloning could take it to the next level．
By plant cloning we have a population of identical plants and all these plants equally suffer from the same diseases，but in nature the weak would die and the strong would survive．While there are some dangers to consider with plant cloning，there are plenty of benefits that could prove vital to the propagation （繁衍） of the human species．
（1）The underlined word"optimized"in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by"        "．
A．enlarged
B．produced
C．perfected
D．examined
（2）According to the text，cloned plants        ．
A．have lower yield than normal plants
B．need little care from people
C．resist various kinds of diseases
D．have a short growth cycle
（3）What is the main purpose of the text？
A．To warn the negative effects of plant cloning．
B．To present different kinds of plant cloning．
C．To predict the future of plant cloning．
D．To inform us about the advantages of plant cloning．

203439. （2015•师大附中•一模） Our body clock，or natural body rhythm，influences our energy and alertness（警觉）．paying attention to it can help us choose the suitable time of day when we best perform specific tasks．
   The reality，however，is that most of us organize their time around work demands，school deadlines，commuting or social events．Doing whatever your body feels like doing is a luxury in today's fast-paced modern society．
   But that doesn't mean it isn't worth trying．Obeying our body clock has significant health benefits．Disrupting our natural body rhythm，on the other hand，has been linked to problems such as depression，obesity，or headache，says Steve Key，a biology professor．
   When the body clock can synchronize（使……同步）the rhythms of its natural processes，it "gives us an advantage in daily life"，says Key．
   According to him，when it comes to cognitive （认知的） work，most adults perform best in the late morning．As our body temperature starts to rise just before awakening in the morning and continues to increase until midday，our memory，alertness and concentration gradually improve．
   However，he adds，our ability to concentrate typically starts to decrease soon thereafter．Most of us are more easily distracted （分心） between noon and 4pm．
   Alertness also tends to fall after eating a meal and sleepiness tends to peak around 2pm，making that a good time for a nap．
   Surprisingly，tiredness may increase our creative powers．For most adults，problems that require open ended thinking are often best dealt with in the evening when they are tired，according to a study in the journal Thinking & Reasoning．
   When choosing a time of day to exercise，paying attention to your body clock can improve results．Physical performance is usually best from about 3 to 6 pm，says Michael Smolensky，a professor of biomedical engineering．
   Of course，not everyone's body clock is the same，making it even harder to synchronize natural rhythms with daily plans．

（1）If we know our natural body rhythm well，we can．
A．organize our time around work demands
B．find out the suitable time to do specific tasks
C．do whatever our body feels like doing
D．be sure to be healthy
（2）Inspiration to solve a difficult problem will most probably come to us        ．
A．when we get up in the morning
B．when we are full of energy in the late morning
C．when we are tired in the evening
D．when we are asleep at night
（3）The main purpose of the passage is to        ．
A．criticize
B．persuade
C．encourage
D．inform
（4）Which of the following can be the suitable title for the passage？
A．Something About Natural Body Rhythm
B．Natural Body Rhythm Is Bad For Us．
C．What Is Natural Body Rhythm？

203440. （2015•师大附中•一模） About 6 percent of luxury hotels in three major Chinese cities have stopped serving shark fin （鱼翅），a survey has found．Although the controversial dish remains on the menu at most hotels，Green Beagle Environment Institute，a Beijing-based non-government organization that was the main sponsor of the survey，said the results are encouraging and reflect increased awareness．
   The survey was carried out in Beijing，Shenzhen and Fuzhou，which were selected as representative cities to collect basic data on shark fin consumption nationwide．In Beijing，132 hotels completed the phone questionnaire between Nov．20 and Dec．12．Only 12 hotels，9 percent，said they do not serve shark fin．A similar survey of 131 Beijing hotels conducted a year ago found only one hotel that did not serve shark fin，Wang Xue，chief coordinator （协调人） of the survey，said on Saturday．In Shenzhen，four out of the 85 four and five star hotels surveyed had stopped serving shark fin，accounting for about 5 percent．In Fuzhou，only one of the 40 hotels surveyed did not serve shark fin．On average，about 6.61 percent of the hotels in the three cities did not serve the food．
   "The survey reminded us there is still a long way to go to remove shark fins from Chinese hotels and restaurants，but the improved situation in Beijing is encouraging，" said Wang． "We found more hotels and restaurants were willing to take action over the past year．" International hotels are more active in the "shark-fin-free" project，she noted．China is the world's biggest importer and consumer of shark fin，which has been used in luxurious Chinese dishes for 500 years．Dishes made from shark fin are still regarded as a symbol of honor and respect，especially at business dinners，according to Wang．
   Research has also found that shark fin contains poisonous elements，but the nutritious value is less than that of chicken or pork． "We hope hotels and restaurants remove shark fin products from their menus，" Wang added．

203477. （2015•师大附中•四模） Scientists recently discovered that pictures on cave walls at Creswell Crags are the oldest known in Great Britain．But they didn't find out in the usual way．
   Archaeologists often date cave art with a process called radiocarbon dating．The technique can measure the age of carbon found in charcoal（木炭）drawings or painted pictures．Carbon is an element found in many things，including charcoal and even people．But in this case，there was no paint or charcoal to test．People carved the pictures of animals and figures into the rock using stone tools．The scientists had an "aha!" moment when they noticed small rocks stuck to the top of the drawings．The small rocks must have formed after the drawings were made．
   "It is rare to be able to scientifically date rock art，" said Alistair Pike，an archaeological scientist at Britain's University of Bristol． "We were very fortunate that some of the engravings were covered by stalagmites（石笋）．
   When a test proved that the stalagmites formed 12，800 years ago，the scientists knew the art underneath them had to be at least that old．And some of the animalown，like the European bison，are now extinct--another tip-off that the art is quite old．
   The artists came to Creswell Crags，This place is one of the farthest points north reached by our ancient ancestors during the Ice Age．At that time，much of the North Sea was dry，so people could move about more easily．
   Some tools and bones found there are 13，000 to 15，000 years old．They show that the travelers hunted horses，reindeer，and arctic hare．Their artwork is similar to art in France and Germany．It tells scientists that the Creswell Crags artists must have had a close connection to peoples several thousand kilometers away-another important clue to understanding how humans spread out across the world．

（1）Which of the following can be used as the best title of the passage？
A．Cave Art About Animals Is Most Beautiful
B．Cave Art Found in an Unusual Way
C．Cave Art Turns Out to Be Britain's Oldest
D．Cave Art in Britain
（2）From Paragraph Two，people can conclude        ．
A．archaeologists can work out the date of cave art
B．radiocarbon dating appeared only in Britain
C．archaeologists are good at using stone tools
D．drawings and painted pictures are really necessary for the formation of small rocks．
（3）Why do scientists say the art is quite old？
A．The art was carved into stone with stone tools．
B．The animals carved in the stone are beautiful．
C．The cave is one of the farthest points in the world．
D．Some pictures were covered by stalagmites more than 10，000 years old．
（4）By studying the cave art，scientists know something about        ．
A．how ancient people crossed the North Sea
B．why some of the animals have died out
C．how humans spread out across the world
D．what kind of animals people hunt at that time

203478. （2015•师大附中•四模） In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition．Some value it highly，believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity，others say that competition is bad；that it sets one person against another；that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people．
   I have taught many children who held the belief that their self - worth relied （依赖） on how well they performed at tennis and other skills．For them，playing well and winning are often life - and - death affairs．In their single - minded pursuit （追求） of success，the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten．
   However，while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed，others take an opposite attitude．In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players，they strongly blame competition．Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society．Teaching these young people，I often observe in them a desire to fail．They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success．By not trying，they always have an excuse： "I may have lost，but it doesn't matter because I really didn't try．" What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost，that would mean a lot．Such a loss would be a measure of their worth．Clearly，this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves．Both are based on the mistaken belief that one's self - respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others．Both are afraid of not being valued．Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve （缓解） can we discover a new meaning in competition．

（1）What does this passage mainly talk about？
A．Competition helps to set up self - respect．
B．Opinions about competition are different among people．
C．Competition is harmful to personal quality development．
D．Failures are necessary experiences in competition．
（2）Why do some people favor competition according to the passage？
A．It pushes society forward．
B．It builds up a sense of duty．
C．It improves personal abilities．
D．It encourages individual efforts．
（3）The underlined phrase "the most vocal" in Paragraph 3 means       ．
A．those who try their best to win
B．those who value competition most highly
C．those who are against competition most strongly
D．those who rely on others most for success
（4）Which point of view may the author agree to
A．Every effort should be paid back．
B．Competition should be encouraged．
C．Winning should be a life - and - death matter．
D．Fear of failure should be removed in competition．

203516. （2015•西工大附中•八模） Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful？This might be called laziness，but Dr．Kleitman has a new explanation．He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle．
   During the hours when you labour through your work，you may say that you're"hot"．That's true．The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak．For some people that peak comes during the forenoon．For others it comes in the afternoon or evening．No one has discovered why this is so，but it leads to such familiar monologues（自言自语）as"Get up，John!You'll be late for work again!"The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening．Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean，and which cycle each member of the family has．
   You can't change your energy cycle，but you can make your life fit it better．Habit can help．Dr．Kleitman believes．Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway．Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to．If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day，rise before your usual hour．This won't change your cycle，but you'll get up energy and work better at your low point．
   Get off to a slow start which saves your energy．Get up with a yawn and stretch．Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor．Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before．Whenever possible，do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours．

（1）If you want to work better at your low point in the morning，you should       ．
A．change your energy cycle
B．overcome your laziness
C．get up earlier than usual
D．go to bed earlier
（2）You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will       ．
A．help to keep your energy for the day's work
B．help you to control your temper early in the day
C．enable you to get your energy on your routine work
D．keep your energy cycle under control all day
（3）What's the best title of the passage？
A．Change Your Habits
B．Save Your Energy
C．Daily Energy Cycle
D．Temperature-and-Energy Peak
（4）The text is likely to be selected from a book of       ．

205668. （2018•西安中学•高一上期末） After years of heated debate，gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park．Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park．By last year，the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves．
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States，but they were gradually displaced by human development．By the 1920s，wolves had disappeared from the Yellowstone area．They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada，where there were fewer humans around．
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results．Deer and elk populations - major food sources （来源） for the wolf - grew rapidly．These animals consumed （消耗） large amounts of vegetation （植被），which reduced plant diversity （多样性） in the park．In the absence of wolves，coyote populations also grew quickly．The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park's red foxes，and completely drove away the park's beavers．
As early as 1966，biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park．They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems．Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets．
The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves．The U．S．Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone．Today，the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone．Elk，deer，and coyote populations are down，while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback．The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well．

（1）What is the text mainly about？
A．Wildlife research in the United States．
B．Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area．
C．The conflict between farmers and gray wolves．

（2）What does the underlined word "displaced" in paragraph 2 mean？

D．Tracked down．
（3）What has caused the disappearance of gray wolves？
A．Damage to local ecology．

205640. （2018•西安中学•高一下期末） Imagine，one day，getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a couple of hours，and then，after a full day of work，going back home to Beijing and having dinner there．
   Sounds unusual，doesn't it？But it's not that unrealistic，with the development of China's high-speed railway system．And that's not all．China has an even greater high-speed railway plan to connect the country with Southeast Asia，and eventually Eastern Europe．China is negotiating to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 10 to 15 years，eventually reaching London and Singapore．
   China has proposed three such projects．The first would possibly connect Kunming with Singapore via Vietnam and Malaysia．Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan，and possibly to Germany．The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe．The new system would still follow China's high-speed railway standard．And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour，almost as fast as some airplanes．Of course，there are some technical challenges to overcome．There are so many issues that need to be settled，such as safety，rail gauge（轨距），maintenance of railway tracks．But the key issue is really money．China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic railway expansion．
   China prefers that the other countries pay in natural resources rather than with capital investment．Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain development．It'll be a win-win project．For other countries，the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business，tourism and so on，not to mention the better communication among those countries．
   For China，such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources，but would also help develop China's far west．We foresee that in the coming decades，millions of people will migrate to the western regions，where the land is empty and resources unused．With high-speed trains，people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for all．And they'll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries．

（1）According to the passage，the greatest challenge to the new high-speed railway plan is        ．
A．technical issues
B．safety of the system
C．financial problems
D．maintenance of railway tracks
（2）China's new high-speed railway plan will be a win-win project because        ．
A．China will get much-needed resources and develop its western regions．
B．China and the countries involved will benefit from the project in various ways．
C．China will develop its railway system and communication with other countries．
D．The foreign countries involved will develop their railway transportation，business and tourism．
（3）Which of the following words best describes the author's attitude towards China's high-speed railway plan？
A．Critical．
B．Reserved．
C．Doubtful．
D．Positive．
（4）Which of the following might be the best title for the passage？
A．New Railway Standards
B．Big Railway Dreams
C．High-speed Bullet Trains

205622. （2019•蓝田县•高二下期末） Dolphins are not fish，but warm-blooded animals．They live in groups，and speak to each other in their own language．In this，they are like other animals，such as bees and birds．But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals．Their brain is nearly the same size as our own，and they live a long time-at least twenty or thirty years．Like some animals，dolphins use sound to help them find their way around．They also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food．We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds，but the lower part of the mouth，called the jaw．
   Strangely，dolphins seem to like man，and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people．
   There is a story about sailors in the 19th century．In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand，they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack．From 1871 to 1903，Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way．Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called The Penguin shot and wounded Jack．He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area--except for The Penguin．

218655. （2023•铁一中学•高二下二月） A remarkable new study on how whales behaved when attacked by humans in the 19th century has implications for the way they react to changes caused by humans in the 21st century.
   The paper is authored by Whitehead and Rendellt at Dalhousie University and their research addresses an age-old question：if whales are so smart，why did they hang around to be killed？The answer？They didn't.Using newly digitised（数字化的）logbooks detailing the hunting of whales in the north Pacific，the authors discovered that within just a few years，the strike rate of the whalers' harpoons（捕鲸者的鱼叉） fell by 58%.This simple fact leads to an astonishing conclusion：that information about what was happening to them was being collectively shared among the whales，who made vital changes to their behaviour.They learned quickly from their mistakes.
   "Sperm whales have a traditional way of reacting to attacks from orca（杀人鲸），" notes Whitehead.Before humans，orca were their only predators（捕食者），against whom sperm whales form defensive circles，their powerful tills held outwards to keep predators at bay，"But such techniques just made it easier for the whalers to kill them，" says Whitehead.
   Sperm whales are highly socialised animals，able to communicate over great distances.Information about the new dangers may have been passed on in the same way they share knowledge about feeding grounds.They also possess the largest brain on the planet.It is not hard to imagine that they understood what was happening to them.
   The hunters themselves realised the whales' efforts to escape.They saw that the animals appeared to communicate the threat within their attacked groups.Abandoning their usual defensive formations，the whales swam upwind to escape the hunters，ships，themselves wind-powered.
   Now，just as whales are beginning to recover from the industrial destruction by 20th-century whaling fleets，whose steamships and grenade harpoons no whale could escape from，they face new threats created by our technology. "They're having to learn not to get hit by ships，cope with the depredations（劫掠）of long line fishing，the changing source of their food due to climate change，" Whitehead says. "The same sort of urgent social learning the animals experienced in the whale wars of two centuries ago is reflected in the way they negotiate today's uncertain world."

（1）What is the new study mainly about？
A．Whales' social lives.
B．Whales' emotional intelligence.
C．Whales' reaction to climate changes.
D．Whales' behavior under human attack.
（2）What caused whales to make changes to escape the hunters' ship？
A．The wind in their favor.
B．Their powerful physical strength.
C．The shared ship attack information.
D．Their usual defensive formations.
（3）What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 5？
A．State possible reasons.
B．Add background information.
C．Summarize the previous paragraphs.
D．Introduce a new topic for discussion.
（4）What's Whitehead's attitude towards whales' future survival？
A．Pessimistic.
B．Unclear.
C．Cautious.
D．Optimistic.
