　　Directions:I this section,there are three passages.Each passage is folloved by five questions ol unfinishedstaten ents.Fon each of then there ave four choices marked A.B.C and D.Yoi should decide on the best choiceanc mark the correspondingletter on the ANSWER SHEET.

　　Passage One

　　Questions 1l to 15 are based on the following passage

　　Temperatures are warming and daylight lasts longer.People who like to garden may be ready to get theirhands dirty and start clearing the ground for new plantings.But garden experts warn--not too fast.

　　Jessica Damiano is one such expert.She says that removing plant matter too early can disturb importantinsects not ready for the cool early spring temperatures.In early spring those insects are still sleeping Removingthe plant matter before the insects begi their life cycles would n ean removing them fron your garder.Fewerinsects mean less food for birds and fewer flowers and vegetables for the gardener

　　Damiano says experts do not all agree on the best time to start cleaning the ground and garden area in thespring.But they usually agree to wait until the temperatures are regularly above 10℃.That is when sleeping insects"wake up".Some experts define "regularly"as at least five days in a row.Damiang says she usually waits sevennights.However,ever then,she says to keep the plant natter on the ground for another week or so before removingit from your property.This gives any insects that are still "sleeping"enough time to wake up.

　　Early cleaning of a garden is often followed by early mulching.Applying mulch makes the garder look neatand clean.But Damiano reminds us that soil and plants are notjust for show.They are part of aliving ecosystem.

　　Mulch is an important part ofa healthy garden.It keeps soil wet,lin its the growth of weeds,and helps keepsoil temperatures even.But timing is important.Mulching before the soil has warned enough will keep in the coldand slow the reawakening of the plants.This can also linit their growth.And if the soil is wet:early mulching carlead to mold,mildew.and fungal diseases.Before applying mulch,wait until it is safe to plant annuals andwarm-season vegetables in your area.

　　Cooper said he also hopes there can be more protectior for nternet users concerned about privacy and forchildren.Speaking about privacy concerns,he said:"it's going to get resolved,but not easily."He also said thereshould be a special internet for childrer so they do not run into material made for adults.Cooper said the idea forthe mobile phone came from a communication device used by the comic book character Dick Tracy.The imaginarydetective had a wristwatch from which he could make phone calls.

　　Passage Three

　　Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

　　A new study suggests the singing noises made by humpback whales(座头鲸)might be a sign ofloneliness.Scientists who recorded humpback whale behavior in Australia discovered that fewer whales made thesinging noises,also called wailing as their population grew.

　　"Humpback whale song is loud and travels far ir the ocean,'said marine biologist Rebecca Dunlop of the[niversity of Queensland in Brisbane She has long studied humpback whales and hielped leac the new study Herwork has centered on humpbacks that reproduce near Australia's Great Barrier Reef.

　　Dunlop told The Associated Press she made an unexpected find as whale numbers sharply rose following theend of commercial whaling(捕鲸)."It was getting more difficult to actually find singers,"she said.Dunlop added,"When there were fewer of them,there was a lot of singing-now that there are lots of them,no need to be singingso niuch."

　　Scientists first began to hear and study the con plex songs of the humpback whales in the 1970s.They usedunderwater microphones to do so.Only niale whales sing.

　　Eastern Australia's humpback whales came close to disappearing in the 1960s,when their number dropped toaround 200.But over time the population began to regrow.climbing to about 27,000 whales by 2015.That number is near estimated pre-whalirg levels.

　　As the density of whales increased,their singing behaviors changed.While 2 n IC males made wailing noises in 2004,10 years later the number had dropped to l in 10,Dunlop said.The team's study appeared in a recent issueof Nature Communications Biology.Dunlop said she thinks singing played a big part ir bringing in mates whenpopulations were severely reduced."It was hard just to find other whales in the area,because there weren't many,"she added.When humpbacks live ir denser populations,males looking for mates also have to deal with competingwhales.Dunlop explained the singing noises might bring in other possible mates.

　　The research suggests the seas are still noisy with humpback whale sounds.Many humpbacks seek to bring inmates with a combination of singing and physical movements.the study notes.

　　The large increase in the humpback population during the study period provided valuable data about changesin the animals'behavior,said Simon Ingram.He studies hun pback whales at the University of Plyn outh inBritain.Ingram said humpback whales must have been singers long before whaling reduced their numbers.But thenew study demonstrates how necessary their complex and beautiful songs were tc their survival and recovery.

　　21.According to Paragraph 1,humpback whales make singing noises probably to

　　A.look for food　　B.attack rivals

　　C.lead other whales　　D.express emotions

　　22.According to Paragraph 2,what can we learn about Dunlop's finding

　　A.All the whales are good singers.

　　B.Humpback whales are too lazy to sing

　　C.Con mercial whaling helps protect the Great Barrier Reef

　　D.More humpback whales lead to reduction of singing noises

　　23.Why do male hun pback whales sing?

　　A.To help them find mates　　B.To attract other male whales.

　　C.To resist commercial whaling　　D.To damage underwater microphones.

　　24.What's probably Dunlops research field?

　　A.Ocean biology　　B.Animal medicine

　　C.Physical science　　D.Commercial whaling
