Many people say dolphins are very itelligent. They seem to be able to think, understand, and learn things quickly. But are they smart like humans or are they more like cats or dogs? Dolphins use their brains differently from people. But scientists say dolphin intelligence and human intelligence are similar in some ways. How?

Like humans, every dolphin has its own name. The name is a special whistle. Each dolphin chooses a specific whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday. Actually, scientists think dolphins, like people, “talk” to each other about a lot of things, such as their age, their feelings, or finding food. And, like humans, dolphins use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. But understanding their conversations is not easy for humans. No one speaks “dolphin” yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.

Dolphins are also social animals. They live in groups, and they often join others from different groups to play games and have fun—just like people. In fact, playing together is something only intelligent animals do.

Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: both species make plans to get something they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an interesting strategy to get food. When fish are near a boat, dolphins show signs to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method, the men can catch a lot of fish. What is the advantage for the dolphins in doing so? They get to eat some of the fish that escape from the net.

阅读表达 根据短文内容,回答下列问题。

China has been practicing the rule that asks people to use their real names when registering(注册) for Internet service. The rules also ask Internet companies operating in China to remove the untrue information which the web users ever gave.

Chinese lawmakers passed the rule on December 28th,2012, at the end of a five-day meeting of the Standing Committee of the NPC.

The new rules say network service providers must well check up the information given by users. The providers have been ordered to stop the spread of illegal (违法的)information, and take steps to deal with the problem. The Xinhua News says those steps include removing the information from the Internet and then reporting it to the government.

Chinese officials say the rules are aimed at protecting the personal information of Internet users and stopping false information such as junk e-mail. However, some people say such new real-name rules will make people less likely to report illegal actions for fear of possible action against them.

Duncan Clark is an adviser to Stanford University’s Graduate School of Business. He lives in Beijing. He says, “For a long time we’ve seen the Internet being used to report illegal action, but the new rules seem to stop those reports.”

But the good news is through real-name registration the Internet crime among teenagers will be controlled.

根据短文内容,回答下列问题。

1.What is the new rule?

_____________________________________________________

2.When was the new rule made?

_____________________________________________________

3.According to the new rule, what must those service providers do?

______________________________________________________

4.Why do some people worry about the new rule?

_____________________________________________________

5.Why is the new rule good for the teenagers?

请阅读 Mary 写给 Dr. Know 的一封信。

Dear Dr. Know,

I am busy and unhappy these days. Classes begin at 7:00 every morning and I have to get up at 5:30 because my home is very far from my school. It takes me an hour to get to school by bike. So I'm sleepy in class every day. Dogs are very cute. And I want to keep a dog as a pet. But my mom doesn’t think dogs are good pets for us because we don't have enough time to walk a dog every day.

Spring comes and it is warm and sunny. I want to go out to exercise every day, but my mom says study is the most important thing in my life. How terrible!

What are you doing now? What's the weather like in your city? Are you happy every day?

Mary
