One reason it is difficult to know why the whales are dying is that __.

About how many more whales have been sighted in the San Francisco Bay this year compared to last year?

根据以下资料，回答20~23题。

Every year gray whales migrate from the Bering Sea in Alaska to the Baja Peninsula in Mexico.

Eleven gray whales have died in the San Francisco Bay in the last three weeks．No one knows why the whales are dying.

Last year 270 whales died along the whales' migration route．Many people think starvation is the cause．This year the dead whales seem to have more blubber (fat) on them.

Twenty years ago, the gray whale was listed as an endangered species.

Some scientists think that the larger number of whales makes it hard to find enough food．More whales create more pressure on the food supply, a supply that some scientists say may have dwindled as a result of the warm waters of El Nino.

Most of the whales have been dead for many days before they are found and studied．This makes it hard to find the reason for death.

65 whales have been seen in the San Francisco Bay Area this year compared to 17 last year．The whales could be dying from many diseases, but it may be over-population．

Which of the following is NOT a possible reason for whales dying?

Why might the increasing number of whales cause problems with their health?

According to Landau, why is it important for a president to have a dog?

根据以下资料，回答15~18题。

Of all Barry H．Landau's anecdotes about his friendships with presidential dogs, perhaps the best is the one about the time the Clinton White House called to postpone his play-date with Buddy．

Yes, Landau is both human and an adult, a 60-year-old author, presidential historian, former White House protocol officer and memorabilia collector．But so enamored is he of dogs, and so well connected to a succession of presidents, that he had an appointment for a South Lawn romp one day with Buddy, Bill Clinton's Labrador retriever (拉布拉多犬) .

Logistics got in the way, though, and hence Clinton secretary Betty Currie's apologetic voice mail left at the Smithsonian Institution, where Landau was doing research: "I'm sorry, but we'll have to reschedule Mr．Landau's play-date with Buddy."

Not surprisingly, this is a happy week for Landau, with the new Obama family dog, Bo, joining a White House tradition that dates to George Washington．It's one that Landau feels is invaluable to a presidency.

"Having a dog just humanizes a president," he says．"It completes the picture．It's something people can relate to."

Who was the first president to have a dog in the White House?

Where does Landau live?

The traffic lights were red when the driver reached them．To the surprise of his passenger, the ear did not slow down．Unexpectedly the passenger was thrown forward in the vehicle as the driver put on his brakes at the last moment．The car stopped just in time.

"Sorry, I didn't notice the light．I thought it was green until I saw that it was the top light which was shining."

This strange story is quite true．About ten men in every hundred are color blind in some way; women are luckier-- only about one in two hundred suffers from color blindness.

In some cases, a man may not be able to see deep red．He may think that red, orange and yellow are all the same as green.

People often like one color more than others．Blue is the color of the sky and sea．Green makes us think of fields and trees．Red is the color of blood and makes some people think of danger．Black is the color of night．In the dark we cannot see what is around us so we are sometimes afraid of the unknown and do not like black as a color.

According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?

According to the passage, we can guess it is safer to take a car driven by a woman because __.

One is considered as a color blind man if __.

When people see things stolen on the programme which they may remember, __.

根据以下资料，回答7~10题。

On television all over the world there are programmes about the work of the police．They are popular because they are usually very exciting．In London there is a television programme called"Police Five "--because it is on for five minutes once a week．A television reporter, Shaw Taylor, talks about crimes in the London area．He asks for public help．The police station needs the help of ordinary people because sometimes you or I have information that can be useful to the police.

Shaw Taylor shows pictures of paintings, jewellery (珠宝) and other things which thieves stole during the week．Sometimes he shows the car that the thieves escaped in．When people see men or things on the television programme which they may remember, they can tell the police where they saw them．With their help the police may catch more criminals.

Sometimes the police find a car or some money．Shaw Taylor shows them on television．The owners sometimes see them．Then they can telephone the police and say, "Thank you very much-- that's mine!"

The television programme is called "Police Five", because it is about the work of the police and __.

The police station asks for public help because __.

From the passage we know Shaw Taylor is __.

根据以下资料，回答4~7题。

There Pictures from outer space now show us how much land has changed on earth．These images are taken by Landsat 7, a government satellite．The satellites have been used for 27 years．They reveal the clear-cutting of forests in the northwestern part of the United States．Pictures show the loss of rain forests in South America.

NASA's Darrel Williams speaks about the Landsat 7 Project．He said that an eruption caused trees to burn up in a large forest．Fifteen years later, pinkish images from space show that the trees and plant life are growing again．Williams says that clear-cut areas easily show up in the pictures．He wants Americans to look at how much land is being cleared of forests in our country.

Satellites have provided other information about changes on earth．In the past ten years, more than four miles have shrunk from glaciers in Alaska．Landsat 7 received these computer images of Glacier Bay in Alaska.

Hurricanes Floyd and Irene have damaged the coastline in North Carolina．Runoff from farms and silt have gone into the．ocean according to satellite images．Loss of trees and forests have caused hotter summers in southern cities such as Atlanta, Georgia.
