After a while，I trained my eyes to “see” 一 to distinguish between waves hitting rocks and the rolling movement of whales underwater.I spent a lot of time just watching the sea through my binoculars (双筒望眼铁），looking actively for anything that indicated sea life below. My binoculars enabled me to spot the fins (續）of a dolphin against the darkness of the sea，and without a good pair of binoculars I definitely would have missed out on lots of amazing sea life.In addition，I eventually realized that the birds provide us with signals that whales and dolphins maybe in the area. Where there is a group of feeding seabirds such as seagulls or gannets，there is often a whale feeding under them. Gannets are really easy to spot from a distance 一 they drop out of the sky at speeds of up to 100 kph，spearing the surface and sending bursts of water up behind them.If you want to try this activity，it is worth organizing and planning carefully for whale watching. 1 recommend having a notebook and pencil nearby to record details of whatyou’ve seen and the environmental conditions at the time. This is not only a helpful aid in general，but you can also contribute your sightings to research projects such as the Sea Watch Foundation，which are monitoring the distribution of whales and dolphins.Despite the early disappointments I had，I think there is undoubtedly something very special about watching whales. Nothing can compare with the secret thrill and the peacefulness of seeing a wild animal just doing its own thing.24. What did the author learn from the embarrassing moments?A. It was hard to carry out the project.B. The project secretary was very strict.C. Most whales were not afraid of humans.D. Whale-watching was not as easy as expected.25.

How to use binoculars when watching whales.26. The author advised whale watchers to .A. record whale-watching detailsB. be careful when watching whalesC. watch whales from the shore onlyD. seek help from the Sea Watch Foundation27. What would be the best title for the text?A.Pleasant summer memorieseful whale-watching adviceC.The thrill of watching whalesD.A fantastic world under the waterCA small study of professional soccer players found that even those who have never experienced a concussion (脑震荡)still have changes in the white matter of their brains， probably from routine and unprotected headers (头球）.The brain’s white matter is made up of nerves and their myelin (髓磷脂）protective coating that play an important role in connecting brain areas and setting up nervous networks. Previous studies have investigated how concussions lead to changes in this white matter，but a new study led by Dr. Inga K.Koerte of Harvard Medical School in Boston，is one of th e first to look at how even blows to the head that aren’t considered concussions may lead to brain injury.In the study，the researchers compared brain scans of twelve male soccer players from German top-level soccer clubs who had not experienced a concussion，to brain scans of eleven competitive swimmers who had similarly never experienced repetitive brain injury.The research team used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)，which is highly effective at catching white matter changes.The researchers found surprising changes in the white matter. Even though the playershad no concussions，their brains told a different story of damage，including changes to the myelin coating surrounding nerves.“Although our study is small，it is the first to look at soccer players with no symptoms of concussions，” says Koerte. “We think it is an important finding not just for soccer players，but other athletes of other sports too.”“If players are damaging their brains，it is a large public health issue because everyone，even at a young age，hits their head like this，” says Dr. Jeffrey Bazarian，an associate professor of emergency medicine at a university. He was not involved with the study，but has also used DTI to assess mild brain injury in high school football and hockey players.Koerte says more research is needed to get a better idea of how potentially damaging head injury can be at young ages. If it turns out repetitive head blows are harming brain functions，Koerte says regulations like stopping playing after a fixed number of hits may be needed. Or heading shouldn’t be allowed at all until a certain age.The study is published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).28. According to the study，soccer players are likely to be threatened by.A. sports injuriesB. routine headersd concussionsD. fierce competition29. The study explores the connection between .A. concussions and the white matterB. repetitive head blows and brain injuryC. the white matter and nervous networksD. nerves and their myelin protective coating30.How many players took part in the study?A.Eleven.B. Twelve.C. Twenty-three.D. Twenty-four31.Dr. Bazarian seems to feel the findings of the study may be .A.importantB. interestingC. incorrectD. conflictingDWitnessing friends’ vacations, love lives and work successes on Facebook can cause envy and triggerC 引发）feelings of misery and loneliness，according to German researchers.A study conducted jointly by two German universities found strong envy on Facebook. the world’s largest social network that now has over one billion users and has produced a platform for social comparison. The researchers found that one in three people felt worse after visiting the site and more dissatisfied with their lives，while people who browsed without contributing were affected the most.“We were surprised by how many people have a negative experience from Facebook with envy leaving them feeling lonely，frustrated or angry，”researcher Hanna Krasnova from the Institute of I nformation Systems at Berlin’s Humboldt University told the reporters. 44From our observations some of these people will then leave Facebook or at least reduce their use of the site，” said Krasnova，adding to supposition that Facebook could be reaching saturation point (饱和点）in some markets.Researchers from Humboldt University and from Darmstadt's Technical University found vacation photos were the biggest cause of anger with more than half of envy incidents triggered by holiday snaps on Facebook. Social interaction was the second most common cause of envy as users could compare how many birthday greetings they received to those of their Facebook friends and how many ** likes” or comments were made on photos and postings. “ Passive following triggers invi dious motions，with users mainly envying happiness of others，the way others spend their vacations and socialize，” the researchers said in the report “Envy on Facebook：A Hidden Threat to Users’ Life Satisfaction?” released on Tuesday.“The spread and co mmonly seen presence of envy on Social Networking Sites is shown to undermine users’ life satisfaction•” They found people aged in their mid-30s were most likely to envy family happiness while women were more likely to envy physical attractiveness. These feelings of envy were found to cause some users to boast (夸大）more about their achievements on the site run by Facebook Inc. to portray (描绘）themselves in a better light.Men were shown to post more self-promotional content on Facebook to let peopleknow about their accomplishments while women stressed their good looks and social lives. The researchers based their findings on two studies involving 600 people with the results to be presented at a conference on information systems in Germany in February.The first study looked at the scale，scope and nature of envy incidents triggered by Facebook and the second at how envy was linked to passive use of Facebook and life satisfaction. The researchers said the participants in both studies were German but they expected the findings to hold internationally as envy is a universal feeling and possibly impact Facebook usage.“From a provider's perspective，our findings signal that users frequently perceive Facebook a stressful environment，which may，in the long run， endanger platform sustainability，” the researchers concluded.32. The underlined word “invidious” in Paragraph 4 probably means “”.A. powerfulB. differentC. unpleasantD. personal33. Which of the following about Facebook envy is NOT true according to the passage?A. People in their 30s usually envy family happiness.B. Women probably are more concerned about their looks.C. Men want to post more about their accomplishments.D. Women don’t focus much attention on social lives.34. According to the survey，Facebook envy may result in .A. more people registering and becoming members of the siteB. the most private details of individuals being given awayC. users spending more time browsing others blogsD. users showing off their achievements intentionally35. Which of the following could serve as the best title for this passage?A. Facebook reflects what your life is likeB. What affects your life quality on FacebookC. Discontent caused by using Facebook may make you miserableD. How to prevent social network websites affecting your life much 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。
