Zanzibar,Tanzania--Hundreds of dead dolphins were washed up on Friday along the shore of a popular tourist place on Tanzania’s northern coast.Scientists have ruled out poisoning.
It was not immediately clear what killed the 400 dolphins,whose dead bodies lied along a 4-kilometer coast of Nungwi,said Narriman Jidawi,a marine biologist at the Institute of Marine Science in Zanzibar.But the bottleneck dolphins,which live in deep offshore waters,had empty stomachs,meaning they could have got lost and had been swimming for some time to reorient themselves.They did not die of hunger and were not poisoned,Jidawi said.
In the US,experts were looking into the possibility that sonar(声呐)from the US submarine could have caused a similar incident in Marothon,Florida,where 68 deep-water dolphins stranded(搁浅)themselves in March 2005.
The deaths are a blow to the tourism industry in Zanzibar,where thousands of visitors go to watch and swim with dolphins.Villagers,fishermen and hotel residents found the dead bodies and told officials.Mussa Aboud,Zanzibar’s director of fisheries,went on state radio to warn the public against eating the dolphins’meat,saying the cause of death had not been found.
The Indo-Pacific bottlenose,commonly known as dolphins,are the most common species in Zanzibar’s coastal waters,with bottlenose and humpback dolphins often found in mixed-species groups.
63.According to the passage,the bottleneck dolphins .
A.are often attacked by submarine in deep water
B.find it hard to find enough food near the coast
C.often fall ill along the shore of a tourist place
D.1ike living in the deep waters near the coast
64.The underlined word“reorient”means .
A.lose their way B.find their way
C.look for food D.fight against enemies
65.What can we infer from the passage?
A.The dolphins died because of the sonar from US submarines.
B.The dead dolphins can not be eaten as they are poisonous.
C.The US experts are researching sonar at present.
D.The ability of locating is extremely important for dolphins.
66.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.400 dolphins died along the coast of Nungwi.
B.Dolphins are facing increased risk of death.
C.It’s necessary for us to protect dolphins.
D.Nungwi is famous for many dolphins there.
From beating their chests to putting objects on their heads,shaking their arms,and even bouncing on all fours,the animals use more than 100 gestures to communicate with each other
Professor Richard Byrne,a psychiatrist involved in the research,says it was hard to figure out the meanings of the gestures.
“We don"t really know what the animals are thinking. Often the gestures have more than one meaning,depending on the context,”says Byrne.
The study showed that the gorillas did not learn the gestures from each other,as had been expected,but performed them instinctively (本能地).
“Everyone had assumed different groups of gorillas would learn different gestures,”he says. “But that"s not what we found. The more sites we went to ,the more we saw the same gestures being used. They seem to be naturally equipped with a pretty complex system of communication.”
The study also found that gestures were performed with close attention to the potential audience,so that silent signals,for example, were only given when other apes could see them. Other gestures,such as the "disco arm shake" were only ever seen directed towards humans.
Byrne believes that the findings may explain how the human language developed.
“There has always been speculation(猜测)that the origins of the human language might lie in gestures,”he says.
“Many researchers have therefore studied the gestural communication of the great apes for clues to the evolutionary origins of human gestures,”he adds.
Several studies have shown that great apes are capable of imitating gestures. However,the scientists found that what appeared to be copies of human actions were actually gestures the apes were already able to make themselves. They"re “reusing” gestures from their own repertoire,not learning new ones.
64.According to the passage,Richard Byrne"s research has found .
A. different groups of gorillas would learn different gestures
B. gorillas know the sign language from birth
C. how gorillas learn from each other
D. gorillas develop a variety of languages when growing up
65.Why can"t the researchers really know the meanings of gorilla gestures?
A. Because gorillas possess the ability of making many kinds of gestures.
B. Because they haven"t made deep research into the animal.
C. Because a gorilla gesture may have different meanings.
D. Because gorillas can"t exactly express their thoughts.
66.If a gorilla wants to make a silent gesture towards another gorilla,he .
A. needs to know how many other gorillas are watching him
B. needs to make noise first in order to draw attention
C. will first make sure his gesture can be seen
D. will first consider whether he can carry out his gesture
67.According to the passage,many scientists study the sign language of great apes in order to .
A. find the origins of the human language
B. find ways for people to communicate with apes
C. learn how animals communicate
D. discover the meanings of animal gestures
Youngsters with foreign mother tongues form a majority at primary schools in 13 out of33 London cities. Across the country,English is a foreign language to more than one in seven primary school youngsters.
The figures from the Department for Children,Schools and Families (DCSF) point to major demographic (人口的) changes over the past few decades,with around a fifth of pupils now coming from ethnic minorities.
There are concerns that school finances are coming under stress from the growing numbers of youngsters requiring help with English. The government has been urged to provide more funding,and give fair treatment to schools with large concentrations of non-English speakers.
In Tower Hamlets almost four out of five youngsters do not have English as their mother tongue. In other areas,including Leicester,Luton and Bradford the proportion approaches 50 percent.
The figures indicate that many recent migrants have settled in London. Sir Andrew Green,Founder and Chairman of Migration Watch UK,says,“These figures confirm the huge impact immigration is having on our society. When government funds are as tight as they are,this is bound to have a negative impact,since children for whom English is a second language need extra tuition (学费).”He adds,“In inner London it"s hard to know with whom immigrant children are supposed to practice English,since the number of immigrant children is much larger than that of local. ”
A spokesman for DCSF stresses that the figures “only indicate the language to which a child was initially exposed at home,regardless of whether he or she comes to speak English fluently later on. It is only a relatively few recent arrivals for whom communication problems are serious”.“We are increasing funding to the Ethnic Minority Achievement Grant (助学金)to £206 million by 2010,to help bring students weak in English up to speed. We’re also equipping schools to offer effective English as an Additional Language teaching to new arrivals,”he adds
72.A minority of London primary school students speak English as their first language because
.
A. local children prefer to speak other languages
B. more and more immigrant children are attending school in London
C. children learning English as an additional language need extra tuition
D. English is too difficult a language for primary school children to learn
73.Some people worry about .
A. the increasing number of adults needing help with English
B. the government taking no measures to help the schools
C. non-English speakers putting school finances under stress
D. London schools not providing adequate service for children in need
74.It can be inferred from the passage that .
A. most immigrant children make a great effort to learn English
B. the government used to treat non-English speakers unfairly
C. it"s not easy to find English speakers for immigrant children in some parts of London to communicate with
D. local children are influenced by immigrant children
75.According to the spokesman for DCSF,the figures indicate .
A. that children will speak English fluently later on
B. that immigration is having a huge impact on English society
C. what the language the children were exposed to first was
D. that funding is increasing to help students weak in English
