C
Every small child knows the panic of losing sight of its mother in the supermarket, and as these delightful pictures show, small whales obviously feel the same way.
Taken by a British diver who was following the sperm whale(抹香鯨) calf, they show the minute the baby - who had lost track of its mum-found her again in the sea off the Azores.
Soaring 30ft across the waves, the newborn slammed（猛力推）its body onto the water with joy after becoming separated from its family group in the chilly（寒冷的）waters.
But the whale calf was doing more than just jumping for joy.
British biologist and dive guide Justin Hart, 44, who took the pictures, says that young whales communicate with older ones in the ocean by creating a slamming sound which travels through the water to the ears of the adults deep below.
By leaping out of the water and slamming its 12ft long body onto the surface of the sea up to 30 times, the baby whale is telling its relatives where it is so they can regroup.
He said: “We had been following the sperm whale calf for most of the day. Sperm whales, of all the whales and dolphins, are the species that dive the deepest and for the longest time.”
“The calves have to follow what’s going on below them from the surface as best they can probably listening to the echo location（回聲定位）clicks of the adults.”
“However, sometimes the adults re-surface far out of sight of the calf, and in this situation the whales often leap out of the water causing a large bang as their bodies hit the surface. In this way, the whale family could regroup.”
He added: “When I took the photo, two adults’ females had just resurfaced and the calf quite literally began jumping for joy.”
Mr. Hart captured the rare image four miles from the port of Lajes do Pico while he was working as a crewman on an underwater documentary with special license to film sperm whales in the area.
Sperm whales live in nearly all the world's oceans in groups of about 15 to 20 animals and they practice communal(集體的) childcare. The calves do not have to follow their mother too closely as sperm whales can take milk from any milk-producing female in its social group.
（1）The underlined word “they” in paragraph 2 probably refers to _____.
A.the whales
B.the divers
C.the photos
D.the mothers
（2）According to Justin Hart, the young sperm whale ____.
A.found its family with his help
B.suffered a lot in the cold waters
C.lost contact with its family for days
D.slammed as a means of communication
（3）What do we know about sperm whales?
A.The young are independent.
B.They are highly social animals.
C.They tend to live in warm sea waters.
D.Females take turns to care for babies.
（4）What would be the best title for the text?
A.Baby whales perform slamming with joy
B.Sperm whales -- fairly intelligent animals
C.Lost sperm whale baby reunited with its family
D.Slamming-- a way of communication among whales

A new weapon is on the way in the fight against smoking in Europe. Soon when smokers buy cigarettes they might see a shocking photo of a blackened lung or a cancer patient staring back at them from the packet.
Some boys may think of smoking as cool and sexy. Their friends won't agree when they see their packets of cigarettes lying on the table. The European Union announced on October 22, that it had chosen 42 photos that showed the damage cigarettes could do to the body. It called on member nations to put these pictures on packets to discourage smokers. To catch the attention of teenagers, the special packets warn of long-term medical dangers, like cancer. Short-term effects, like bad skin, are also on the list.
“The true face of smoking is disease, death and horror. That is the message we should send to the young,” said David Byrne, an EU health official. “Hopefully these pictures will shock students out of their love for cigarettes.”
The EU head office hoped the pictures would work better than current written warnings on packs of cigarettes. The warnings included“smoking kills” and “smoking can lead to a slow and painful death.”
So far, Ireland and Belgium have shown interest in the photos. Canada has used similar pictures and warnings on cigarette packs since 2000. The country has recently seen a fall in the number of smokers. According to studies, smoking is the single biggest cause of avoidable death in EU. Every year more than 650,000 smokers die, more than one person a minute.
（1）Why will the “new weapon” hopefully work better according to the passage?
A.Because it is easier to understand.
B.Because it shows both dangers and effects.
C.Because it can be seen by the smokers' friends.
D.Because it is more powerful to catch attention.
（2）The pictures chosen by the EU are supposed to work on ______.
A.young smokers
B.smokers in Ireland and Belgium
C.all smokers
D.young smokers' friends
（3）What can we learn from the passage?
A.Canada has been the first to use the EU's “weapon”.
B.Many smokers don't quite believe the written warnings.
C.The new form of warning has already proved to work.
D.Smoking has caused more deaths than anything else in EU.

Borrowing to start a business is not easy. Getting a bank loan, particularly for a new small business, is like going through the eye of a needle.
Banks favor established-business people with a solid credit rating and a large bank account. They should also have experience in the business they propose to enter, and offer well-prepared business plans that show the ability to repay the loans. If you are not such a person, then you need to double your preparations to convince the banker to lend you that much needed start-up capital（資金）. If your business is new and small, bankers will need to know as much as possible about you and your business. However, many small business owners often make the mistake of not being well prepared when going to the bank to apply for the loan. Surprisingly, many loan applicants don't even have the slightest idea how or when they intend to repay the money they request. Often they don't even know how much money they need. When asked how much money they want to borrow, many people give these two common responses: “How much money can I get?” and “As much as possible.” Is it any wonder that lenders say no? So the most important thing is do your homework before you ask for a loan.
（1）By saying “Getting a bank loan.., is like going through the eye of a needle”, the writer emphasizes ______.
A.the ability to borrow from a bank
B.the importance of borrowing money

（2）Banks prefer to give a loan to those who ______.
A.are in need of start-up capital
B.have the ability to pay it back
C.own an old and large business
D.haven't borrowed money before
（3）Some small businesses fail to get a bank loan because ______.
A.the form they fill in is incomplete
B.their products are not technically advanced
C.the amount of money they want to borrow is too big
D.they have no clear idea of how much they need to borrow
（4）The writer advises that before applying for a bank loan, the applicant should ____.
