22、Climate change will significantly alter how sound travels underwater, potentially affecting natural soundscapes (音响范围) as well as increasing human-generated noise, according to a new global study that identified future ocean “sound hotspots.” These changes to ocean soundscapes could impact essential activities of marine life.

“We calculated the effects of temperature, depth and salinity (盐度) based on public data to model the soundscape of the future,” said Alice Affatati, lead author of the new study published today in Earth’s Future. It is the first global-scale estimate of ocean sound speed linked to future climate. In warmer water, sound waves travel faster and last longer before dying away.

Two hotspots, in the Greenland Sea and a patch of the northwestern Atlantic Ocean east of Newfoundland, can expect the most change at 50 and 500 meter depths. The major impact is expected in the Arctic, where we know already there is expansion of the effects of climate change now. Not all the Arctic, but one specific part where all factors play together to give a signal that overcomes the uncertainty of the model itself.

Many marine animals use sound to communicate with each other and navigate their under-water world. Changing the sound speed can impact their ability to feed, fight, find mates, avoid predators and migrate, the authors said. Temperature, pressure with increasing depth and salinity all affect how tast and how far sound travels in water.

Future work will combine the global soundscape with other maps of human impacts in the oceans to accurately determine areas of combined stressors (压力源), or direct needed observational research. With complicated problems like climate change, to combine different approaches is the way to go.

【1】What does the new study indicate?

A．Human-generated noise will impact climate change.

B．Activities of marine life could impact ocean soundscapes.

C．Natural soundscapes may potentially affect climate change.

D．Climate change may affect the way sounds travel under oceans.

【2】The global-scale estimate of ocean sound speed linked to future climate is________.

A．useless

B．initial

C．simple

D．outdated

【3】In which aspect does climate change affect marine life?

A．Their food variety.

B．Their eyesight.

C．Their survival ability.

D．Their dashing ability.

【4】What is the next aim of the study?

A．To try different approaches.

B．To combine global soundscapes.

C．To analyse other human impacts.

D．To locate the places of stress source.

23、Putting Movies on Mobiles

Movies in the theater get their recognition at awards ceremonies such as the Oscars. But how about movies for phones? They are getting their turn at MoFilm- the first mobile film festival.

The first MoFilm competition received 250 entries from more than 100 countries. Entries were restricted to films that were five minutes or less in length-best for viewing and sharing on mobile phones. An independent team of judges then selected a shortlist of five film-makers. The winner was chosen from the shortlist by an audience voting using their phones.

New Platforms

The awards highlight the increasing influence that mobile phones are showing in the entertainment industry. Many grassroots filmmakers start out with short films. They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screen their work. Therefore, mobile phones are increasingly being seen as a new platform for these short works.

It is a good place for anyone who wants to express themselves and find a way to have that expression be seen by a wide audience. Just think about how many people have mobile phones in the world!

New Technology Advances

MoFilm is pioneering content for mobile and online services that is a world away from Hollywood. The majority of films made for mobiles are now short in length, taking into account the screen size. However this could be overcome as technology advances.

In the near future, longer films will likely be seen on the mobile phone. And there are mobile companies creating phones where users can watch movies at higher quality.

Wherever you see movies, one thing is certain: the quality of work, the simple ability at story telling，and the thing that inspires someone to tell a story can really come from anywhere.

【1】The underlined word “thwarted” means “_____”.

A.surprised B.frightened C.disappointed D.encouraged

【2】Nowadays the majority of films made for mobiles are short in length because of_____.

A.the screen size B.online services

C.technology advances D.the mobile phone

【3】We can learn from the text_____.

A.It is impossible to see longer films on mobile phone.

B.Mobile companies will creating more films.

C.The quality work can only be seen in the theater.

D.The quality of work can also be seen from MoFilms.

24、   You can't see your sleeping pet's brain waves, but its behavior can tell you when Fido or Fluffy might be dreaming. If you watch closely, you'll see that as your cat falls asleep, her breathing becomes slow and regular and her body still. She has entered the first stage of sleep, called slow-wave sleep. After about 15 minutes you'll notice a change in her breathing. Her paws and whiskers twitch(抽动) and she flicks an ear. Fluffy has entered REM(Rapid Eye Movement), or dreaming stage of sleep. Although she twitches and makes little grunting noises, messages from her brain to the large muscles in her legs are blocked, so she can’t run about. She is in a state of “sleep paralysis”.

Back in 1963, Michel Jouvet, a French scientist who was studying sleep in cats, interrupted their sleep paralysis. Even though they were completely asleep, the dreaming cats began to chase balls that Jouvet couldn't see and arched their backs at invisible enemies. He figured he was watching them act out their dreams!

What were they dreaming about? Mostly, the dreaming cats seemed to be practising important cat skills: stalking, pouncing and fighting.

In another study, neuroscientist Matt Wilson recorded rats' brain waves while they learned mazes(迷宫). One day, he left the brain-wave-recording machine on while the rats fell asleep. The pattern of brain waves in the sleeping rats matched the pattern from the maze so closely that Wilson could figure out exactly which part of the maze each rat was dreaming about!

Many researchers now think that in both people and animals, one purpose of dreams is to practise important skills and figure out recent learning. This may explain why so many people dream about fighting and escaping, skills that were probably important to our ancestors, and why dreaming affects our ability to learn.

Do all animals dream? From looking at the brain waves of sleeping animals, scientists think that all mammals dream, but reptiles, fish, and invertebrates(无脊椎动物) don't.(They're not sure about birds.)

【1】What can we know about "sleep paralysis"?

A．It's the initial step of sleep.

B．I features slow-wave sleep.

C．It is in a motionless state.

D．It refers to the dreaming stage.

【2】In Michel Jouvet's study, when cats were dreaming, they were____________.

A．exercising basic skills.

B．playing balls.

C．recording brain waves.

D．learning mazes.

【3】What can be inferred from the text?

A．The museles of the reaming eats are blocked to move.

B．Dreaming a lot can help humans learn more.

C．Eighting and escaping are not necessary for ancestors.

D．Dreaming has a great impact on both humans and animals.

【4】What would be the suitable title of the text?

A．Fido and Fluffy.

B．Do Animals Dream?

C．What is Sleep Paralysis?

D．Stages of Animal Sleep.
