  Dolphins are very interesting animals which are known as the friendliest of all.Dolphins live in deep waters but come to the shores and shallow waters for food at times.Though they live in water., they're mammals and breathe air through their blowhole(呼吸孔)on their head.Some dolphins rise up to the surface every 20 to 30 seconds and some can hold their breath for over 30 minutes.When they sleep, half of their brain is active and one of their eyes is always open.

  They have excellent sight and very well-developed eyes, which can spot food as well as enemies from a long distance.Dolphins can swim very slowly and often rest at the bottom of the sea bed.They have their won individual whistles which can be recorded and through which they communicate with each other.

  Reproduction in dolphins occurs during the spring months and they find their mates much earlier than the mating(交配)period.The gestation(怀孕)period of a female dolphin is about 11 to 12 months.The calves(babies)can swim and breathe immediately after birth.Sometimes they are born at the surface of the water to help them to breathe more easily.The mother nurses the calf for the next 13 to 18 months when it stays close to the mother.

  Dolphins eat many kinds of fish and squid(鱿鱼).Their favourite kinds of fish are mackerels(鲭)or herrings(鲱)which have fat and can provide energy for the dolphins to swim and survive.Squid don't have much fat, so to get the equal amount of energy, dolphins eat more squid.

    Dolphins(海豚)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.

    Today, some people continue to kill dolphins, but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.

65. Dolphins are different from many other animals in that they _____.

A. live in groups  B. have large brains  C. are warm-blooded D. have their own language

66. Which of the following does the dolphin use to help it find its way around?

A. Its nose.         B. Its ears.           C. Its mouth.        D. Its eyes.

67. Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look for Jack?

A. He was lonely and liked to be with people. B. They enjoyed playing with him.

C. He was seriously wounded.                D. They wanted his help.

68. By telling the story of Jack, the writer wanted to show that _____.

A. dolphins are friendly and clever B. people are cruel to animals

C. Jack is different from other dolphins D. dolphins should be protected by law
