【题目】阅读理解

阅读短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

Some scientists say that animals in the ocean are increasingly threatened by noise caused by human beings. The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a number of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial activities under the sea and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes and sounds made by animals themselves.

Decibels (分贝) measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect (效果).

Some scientists have suggested setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales.

A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that loud noises can seriously injure some animals. The research team found that powerful underwater explosions (爆炸) were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales’ ability to communicate and find their way. Some of the whales even died.

Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds object to a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.

Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists suspect that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.

【1】 According to the passage, which of the following is increasingly dangerous to sea creatures?

A. The manmade noises.

B. The sound of earthquakes.

C. The sound of the icebreaking.

D. The noises made by themselves.

【2】 What is discussed in the second paragraph?

A. The ocean animals’ reaction to noises.

B. Human ears sensitive to all types of noises.

C. Different places with different types of noises.

D. The decibels measured differently on land and in the ocean.

【3】 What does the underlined phrase “object to” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

A. Contribute to. B. Agree with. C. Be against. D. Put forward.

【4】 According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future?

A. They will set a noise limit.

B. They will work hard to decrease noise.

C. They will study the effect of different noises.

D. They will protect animals from harmful noises.

【题目】I would like to talk about a very dear friend of mine, whose name was Peggy. She died at home last night at the age of 83. She was my first badminton coach and probably the best friend I’d ever had.

I met her at 12 when she coached an after-school badminton program. She saw my potential, but I thought she was a little frightening so I didn’t go back to the program. She went to my house to ask me back. I did go back and that was the beginning of my badminton “career”. She brought me to tournaments and encouraged me. At the time my mother was drinking heavily and badminton kept me out of trouble and focused on a positive pursuit.

Peggy was a person who had the qualities of honesty and integrity. She was devoted to her family and was married for over 50 years. She loved her children and was so happy to become a grandmother with the addition of Merissa to the family. She loved to have fun and play games. Another true love of her life was cats; she had one cat that lived 22 years. Before she died she had 10 cats and they brought her great joy and comfort. She also loved the Montreal Canadiens, and she supported them and often watched them play hockey games.

She wasn’t a celebrity; she was a homemaker who was proud to provide a happy home for her family. She was a loyal and dedicated friend to many. She never forgot a birthday, anniversary or to send a Christmas card. Speaking of Christmas she was an expert on Christmas and decorations. She was able to prepare this year’s tree and had hoped to spend this Christmas with her family but it wasn’t meant to be.

I had the privilege of speaking to her just a couple hours before she passed away and she told me that her life wouldn’t have been the same without me and I am grateful for that and I feel the same.

【1】 Paragraph 3 tells us that Merissa __________________.

A. is Peggy’s grandchild

B. She died before this year’s Christmas.

C. She was unmarried when she died.

D. She died at the age of 50.

【4】It’s implied in the passage that the author __________________.
