26、Animals in Antarctica

There are no land animals that actually live in Antarctica！However，the surrounding oceans are rich in living creatures！It’s just too cold to support very many life forms！Now let’s meet some of the Antarctica’s animals.

Weddell Seal

They are the southernmost pinniped(鳍足类的)in the world. Males are generally smaller than females. Interestingly，a newborn pup has a coat of long hair，which they will shed(脱落) within the first month as the protective layer of their body is developed.

Blue Whale

Named for its blue•gray color，this huge animal may grow to be roughly 100 feet long and weigh more than 120 tons！A blue whale eats about 4 tons of krill(磷虾)per day during the feeding season！This means that about 40 million krill are eaten every day for six months by a blue whale！The tongue of the blue whale can be as big as a Volkswagen！The blue whale is the loudest animal on earth!

Rockhopper Penguins

One of the more beautiful penguins，the Rockhopper shake their heads and cause their yellow eyebrows to fly into a “halo”in order to attract a mate!

Wandering Albatross

This species of albatross wanders the oceans for months at a time searching for food. It sleeps on the ocean surface at night and drinks sea water.The Wandering Albatross is the largest bird in the world in terms of wing span—11 feet!

Ross Seal

Ross Seals are very rarely seen because they live deep within the pack•ice. It is believed that Ross Seals feed mainly on squid，fish and krill. They were named after the British polar explorer Sir James Ross，who first discovered them in 1840.

Emperor Penguin

Emperor Penguins are the biggest of the 17 penguin species. They are flightless birds. They are the only living species to reproduce during the harsh Antarctic winter. Without a nest，the father Emperor Penguin keeps the egg warm by holding it on his feet for 2－3 months until spring，during which the father doesn’t eat anything and he just eats a little snow for moisture. Unbelievable！What a Dad!

27、For a few months twice a year, the waters off California are home to gray whales moving north or south between the coast of Mexico and the Bering Sea. This year, however, it seems that fewer whales are surviving the journey north. So far this year, a total of 30 dead gray whales have washed up on the West Coast: Eight in Washington, one in Oregon and 21 in California. Those numbers are unusually high.

In Northern California, three out of four of the dead whales that have been examined so far appear to have died of starvation and the fourth was killed by a ship strike, said Barbie Halaska, a research assistant at The Marine (海洋的) Mammal Center (TMMC), a nonprofit organization that rescues and rehabilitates (使康复) marine mammals in California. Halaska and her colleagues examined the four whales—three young whales and one adult male — and planned to examine the remaining dead whales in the region in the next couple of days.

Gray whales were once severely threatened by whalers. Only around 2,000 of them lived in the ocean in 1946, so an international agreement to stop gray whale hunting was signed in order to help the population recover. Gray whales were removed from the endangered species list in 1994 when the population reached 23,000 individuals and TMMC predicts there are now around 26,000 gray whales in the Pacific Ocean, which is about the number before the whaling boom got up steam almost 200 years ago.

Although the gray whale population has recovered to a certain degree, the number of dead whales washing up this year is alarming, Halaska said. Climate change and declining fish stocks are likely key factors in the whales’ poor health, she said .

Halaska stressed that boaters and beachgoers on the West Coast should watch out for gray whales this time of year.

【1】What are the statistics in paragraph 3 about?

A．Severe conditions facing gray whales.

B．An agreement to stop killing whales.

C．The evolving development of gray whales.

D．The number of gray whales in different times.

【2】What’s Halaska’s attitude towards the population of gray whale?

A．Worried.

B．Discouraged.

C．Optimistic.

D．Uncaring.

【3】What may be talked about following the last paragraph?

A．The importance of gray whales.

B．Gray whales’ living environment.

C．Things to do to help gray whales .

D．Ways to increase gray whales’ population.

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．Gray Whales Are Threatened by Whalers

B．Why Many Gray Whales Died on California’s Coast?

C．Gray Whales Are in Great Danger of Dying Out

D．Where Gray Whales Move to Avoid Being Hunt?

28、Clocking 16 hours, 46 minutes, nine seconds, the athlete Chris Nikic didn’t finish with the shortest time when he recently completed his first Iron Man Race, but he did quite well.

After swimming 2.4 miles, the 21-year-old Floridian cycled 112 miles. Even after suffering a fall from his bike during the second leg of the race, he called on his inner strength to get back up, keep going and get the job done. And then he ran a 26.2-mile marathon to become the first competitor with Down’s Syndrome (唐氏综合征) in the world to successfully cross the finish line in the history of the Iron Man Race. For his efforts, Nikic also earned himself a place in the Guinness Book of World Records.

“To Nikic, this race was more than just a finish line and a celebration for the success,” his dad said. The race has served as a chance to become one step closer to his goal of living a normal life. It’s about being an example to other kids and families that face similar difficulties. Those with Down’s Syndrome will be prompted to live a life like normal persons.

Nikic trained between four and six hours a day to prepare for the event, and that training paid off.

Goal set and achieved, Nikic posted on Instagram, where he has 33,000 new followers. “Time to set a new and bigger goal for 2021.”

One of Nikic’s biggest fans, all-time tennis great Billie Jean King, tweeted the perfect response: “No limits. No boundaries. Keep dreaming big and going for it!”

As for that medal he won for completing the race, he gifted it to his loving mom. With hope of competing in the 2022 Special Olympics scheduled in Orlando, it looks as if Chris Nikic has plenty of big dreams yet to come true.

【1】What did Nikic’s performance during Iron Man Race prove?

D．He is careful.

D．Special Iron Man Race was held for special athletes

29、   To be rulers of the reality, we must know how to ask for suggestions. But one thing that must be kept in mind is that when we ask others for suggestions we must be open to suggestions.

I wrote a business letter one day. I gave it to my husband for suggestions. After reading the letter, he felt that there were some problems in my letter. I told him I needed more information, but he said he wasn’t sure. Then he reread the letter and made notes. I took the letter and revised it. As I was writing, I could see my letter improved based on his suggestions. Again, I handed the letter back to my husband proudly and confidently. But he said it was still not right. I was a little annoyed and said some bad words to him.

Many people may have the same reaction when they experience the same situation. It’s normal that people don’t like objection or critical words. However, we should hold a right attitude towards these words: Analyze the objection and listen to critical words with an open mind.

I then picked up the letter. After an hour of revision, I went back to my husband contritely. I told him I was sorry for what I had said. And after he read the letter again, he declared that it was fine.

That leads me to the following: When you ask for advice on a project, be grateful. Understand that the suggestions you get may be negative. Understand that it may mean more work for you. And keep in mind that the final responsibility for the project is still yours. So be modest and thankful even if he or she has noted some problems.

【1】Why did the author give her business letter to her husband?

A.To show off her excellent work.

B.To ask him to make some changes.

C.To have him type it on the computer.

D.To ask him to give her some advice.

【2】What kind of people is the author’s husband?

A.A person who is good at expressing himself.

B.A person of selfishness and pride.

C.A person of honesty and patience.

D.A person of humor, but carelessness.

【3】What does the word “contritely” in Paragraph 4 mean?

A.pleasantly

B.regretfully

C.proudly

D.carefully

【4】What attitude should we take when we are given suggestions?

A.Don’t get upset if some are negative.

B.Don’t refuse any help from the giver.

C.Do keep silent before taking action.

D.Don’t quarrel but talk with the giver.
