【解析】

文章大意：本文讲海豚喜欢使它们的游戏更具挑战性，它们和我们生活在不同的世界，但是它们很擅长IQ测试。对于海豚，我们还有很多需要了解的。

【1】句意：1997年的美好的一天里，在沙滩上的科学家们看到一只小狗走进海里并游向了海豚们。

分析句子结构可知句中缺主语；根据空后“watched a littile dog …”，结合备选项可推出此处用scientits表示“科学家”。故选C。

【2】句意：令他们惊讶的是，海豚们来到小狗旁边，然后开始把小狗抛向天空。

start doing sth.或start to do sth.都表示“开始做某事”，结合备选项可知要用throwing表示“抛，扔”。故选A。

【3】句意：小狗似乎很享受这个游戏，记叙和海豚们玩了一个多小时。

and前后连接两个并列谓语结构，此处要填动词的过去式；结合备选项可知此处用短语continue doing sth.表示“继续做某事”。故选D。

【4】句意：它们这么做时因为它们将能得到一条鱼作为奖励。

此处讲海豚听到哨声跳出水面，是因为这么做能得到一条鱼，结合选项可推出此处用prize表示“奖励”。故选E。
