fish stocks in many oceans are very low. It"s not because they"re bad for you, though fishin many
areas are exposed to poisonous substances in the water. It"s because they"re smart.
"Fish are sensitive, they have personalities",says the marine biologist. For Earle, eating afish would
be like eating a dog or a cat. "I would never eat anyone I know personally."
There"s a lot more to fish than meets the eye: they talk to each other, they like to betouched, and
they engage in behavior that can seem very human. They can remember thingsand learn from experience.
Earle and a growing number of animal rights activists see these asstrong arguments against eating fish
altogether.
The activists also point out that fish feel pain and fish suffer horribly on their way from the sea to
the supermarket. "While it may seem obvious that fish are able to feel pain, likeevery other animal,
some people think of fish as swimming vegetables," says Dr. Lynne Sneddon. "Really,it"s kind of a
moral question. Is the enjoyment you get from fishing (oreating fish) more important than the pain of
the fish?"
Fishermen and (fried) fish lovers are doubtful. "I"ve never seen a smart fish," says Marie Swaringen
as she finishes off a plate of fish at a Seattle seafood restaurant. "If they were verysmart, they wouldn"t
get caught. "
"For years, everyone"s been telling us to eat fish because it"s so good for us," says another diner.
""Now I"ve got to feel guilty while I"m eating my fish? What are they going to think of next? Don"t eat
salad because cucumbers have feelings?"
B. fish actually are sensitive and have personalities
C. some ocean fish contain poisonous substances
D. fish are like dogs or cats that people know personally
B. people will be persuaded not to eat fish in the future
C. stopping eating fish will lead to people"s not eating vegetables
D. we shouldn"t care too much about the feeling of fish
B. there are more fish in the world than people can see
C. people can see more fish if they pay more attention
D. fish are not that simple as they appear to people"s eyes
B. Indifferent.

| My teacher Miss Benson was the kindest creature on the earth. I was going to marry her when I grew up- 1 she would wait. I couldn"t bear to miss one precious moment of her presence by 2 the classroom. I always raised my hands when she called for volunteers to gather 3 and bring them to her desk. That was the best chore of all. It made 4 getting near enough to her. I would arrange and rearrange the papers until they were in perfect order. I started begging my mother to put extra fruit 5 my lunch. I was never brave enough to hand it to Miss Benson directly, though. Each day the fruit was put unobserved on her desk. And the 6 was always the same. She would come in and sit down. "How nice!" She would pick the fruit up, then 7 the room. "What thoughtful little child brought me this?" No one claimed the honor, let alone me. " 8 it be that I have a secret admirer?" she would ask. I would feel the red rising in my face, and I would sigh with 9 when Miss Benson put the fruit away and started the lesson. One morning, the class was excited. The next day was Miss Benson"s birthday. My heart beat fast I could give her something 10 . That afternoon was spent searching for wild flowers. I found several kinds. The next morning I hung back as others presented their gifts. 11 I went to the desk and gave the flowers to Miss Benson. She was pleased, and held it to 12 cheek for a moment. The next Monday, Miss Benson was not in class. Then I was 13 to go to the headmaster"s office. When I arrived, I saw my mother. On a table were my flowers. "Do you know 14 Miss Benson is today?" the headmaster asked. " 15 , sir," I answered. "Miss Benson," he said. "is in the hospital, and you sent her there!" I sat, 16 , in my chair. "Do you know what you gave her?" he continued. I 17 , "some flowers." "They were poisonous!" He was angry. "How did you protect 18 when you picked them?" "I didn"t know they were poisonous." I cried. I begged my mother to take me to the hospital. Miss Benson was in bed when we arrived. "I didn"t 19 to make you sick…" I said. Miss Benson smiled, "You wanted to give me something special, didn"t you?" I was filled with happiness. She was not mad at me."And I"ll tell you a secret," she continued. "When I am married, if I have a 20 , I would like him to grow up just like you." | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
