    A week later, the second young man also returned. “Lord, I’ve been to the mountaintop 7. a forest of tall pine trees and vultures circling in the air. That’s a really nice place. ”

    “What a pity! ”said the chief. “Son, you’ve been halfway up the mountain rather than to the summit. Now you can leave. ”

    A month later, the third young man showed up in rags, his hair off-colored but his eyes clear and bright.

    “Lord, I succeeded in reaching the summit. There was nothing there but the highland wind and the blue sky 8. (hang)over the land. ”

    “So you saw nothing at all? Not even9. butterfly? ”

    “No, Lord, nothing. All you can see is yourself. You just feel how insignificant you are in this infinite universe10. standing at the top! ”

    “Son, you’ve reached the real mountaintop. Congratulations! You will be undoubtedly made our new tribal chief! ”

    The future of pinnipeds (鳍足动物)looks much brighter today than it once did. At one time, about 100 years ago, it seemed certain that many pinnipeds in the world would be destroyed by human hunters. Today, it appears that most species( 物种) of pinnipeds are out of danger.

    Hunting was not controlled during the 18th and 19th centuries, because little was known about the lives of pinnipeds. Whales and pinnipeds were hunted for the oil from their body fat. This oil was used in lamps before electric lights were invented. Millions of seals and other pinnipeds were used to provide oil for the lamps of the world. As a result, the numbers of many pinniped species fell rapidly.

    Several things happened that helped to save pinnipeds. First, species that were hunted to near extinction (灭绝) were left alone because their numbers were too low and the cost of hunting them went up greatly. At the same time, electric lights were invented and the market for seal oil became smaller. Finally, governments around the world made laws to protect pinnipeds.

    As a result of all these things, the numbers of most pinniped species have grown in recent years. With some species, such as Northern fur seals, there may be as many animals alive today as there were before all the hunting began.

    However, oil is still a danger to pinnipeds and all sea animals. But this time it’s not because they are hunted for their oil. The oil that puts them in danger is from oil spills(泄露) in the sea. The oil covers their fur and reduces their body temperatures. Oil also sticks to the foods they eat. This modern danger to pinnipeds and their environment is one we must work to prevent.

    1. During the 18th and 19th century, _______.

    A. people had realized the importance of pinnipeds

    B. pinnipeds were hunted for their meat

    C. pinnipeds had a better life than today

    D. many families were using lamps

    2.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?

    A. How electric lights were invented.

    B. When people began to protect pinnipeds.

    C. What governments around the world have done to save pinnipeds.

    D. Why the numbers of some pinnipeds have increased.

    3.It can be inferred from the passage that________.

    A. the market for seal oil is growing

    B. Northern fur seals aren’t in much danger now

    C. oil spills are the biggest problem for pinnipeds

    D. stricter laws need to be made to protect pinnipeds

    4.In which part of a magazine can we most probably read this passage?

    A. Wildlife. B. Lifestyle.

    C. Tourism. D. Environment.

    Scientists have discovered a special biological behavior in dolphins（海豚） that could lead to a treatment for late-onset diabetes（晚发的糖尿病） in humans. Studies on dolphins found that healthy dolphins switch into a diabetic-like state overnight when they are not feeding, but return to normal when they eat the following morning.

    The extraordinary finding has led scientists to suggest that dolphins have “genetic switch” that allows them to imitate diabetes while they are not feeding for a night, without suffering any ill effect.

    If researchers can identify a similar genetic pathway in human, they may be able to develop drugs to effectively switch off diabetes. Some 2.2 million people in Britain have type 2 (or late-onset) diabetes, a figure that is expected to reach 4 million by 2025 as a consequence of rising levels of obesity（肥胖）.

    The tissues of people with type 2 diabetes have become resistant to insulin（胰岛素）so they lose the ability to control sugar levels in their blood. The condition can damage the heart, eyes, kidneys（肾脏） and nerves and contribute to 5% of all deaths, according to the World Healthy Organization.

    Dolphins appear to imitate diabetes to keep high levels of blood sugar when food is rare. Like humans, dolphins need some sugar in their blood for their brains to function normally. Venn-Watson’s team analyzed 1,000 blood samples（样本） from 52 dolphins while they didn’t eat anything overnight and fed in the morning. At night time, the dolphins’ metabolism（新陈代谢）changed greatly and showed similar characteristics to that seen in people with type 2 diabetes.

    “It is our hope that this discovery can lead to new ways to prevent, treat and maybe even cure diabetes in humans,” said Stephanie Venn-Watson, director of clinical research at the National Marine Foundation in San Diego.

    1.What’s the main idea of the passage?

    A. Humans get some idea of treating diabetes from dolphins.

    B. Dolphins can switch into a diabetic-like state overnight.

    C. Humans can suffer the same disease as dolphins.

    D. Dolphins should be fed regularly to avoid diabetes.

    2.The key to applying the finding to curing human diabetes lies in ____________.

    A. producing insulin in a larger amount

    B. developing drugs from healthy dolphins

    C. identifying a similar genetic pathway in human

    D. analyzing more blood samples from hungry dolphins

    3. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

    A. Scientists have found a similar genetic switch in humans.

    B. More British people will suffer type 2 diabetes due to obesity.

    C. 2.2 million people with type 2 diabetes die in Britain every year.

    D. Dolphins imitate diabetes to avoid a high blood sugar level.

    4.What will happen to dolphins if not fed for a night according to Venn-Watson?

    A. Their metabolism breaks down.

    B. They become resistant to insulin.

    C. Their heart and kidneys are damaged.

    D. They keep high levels of blood sugar.
