21、Sharks are often regarded as cruel animals, hunting alone in the deep sea. But that is increasingly out of step with what scientists are learning about them. Instead, they say, sharks are social creatures who return day after day to a group of the same sharks.

Yannis Papastamatiou’s team studied the sharks living in’ the waters off Palmyra Atoll in the central Pacific Ocean. They put small location transmitters (发射机) on 41 sharks, which allowed them to record the animals’ movements.

After recording the sharks for four years, the researchers found that the same groupings of sharks — from a couple up to as many as 20 — returned to the same parts of the reef (礁) over and over again. They also found that some of the groups stuck together during the study period — longer than earlier studies have observed.

They point out that the sharks don’t cooperatively hunt, but say that as long as the group isn’t too large — which will raise competition — socializing appears to benefit the sharks. And that may be one of the things that leads to sociality in the species.

David Shiffman, who studies shark protection, says he was surprised to learn the sharks stuck together for so long. “Sharks are smart creatures,” Shiffman says. “In addition to knowing where to find food by watching others, some species of sharks can also learn to solve simple puzzles, just by watching other sharks solve them. Given their intelligence and social abilities, perhaps it’s time to drop misunderstandings about sharks.”

As for what to call a group of sharks, the name causes fear: it’s known as a shiver of sharks.

【1】What is the main finding of Papastamatiou’s research?

A．Sharks cooperate to hunt.

B．Sharks form social groups.

C．Sharks hunt alone regularly.

D．Sharks take advantage of the reef.

【2】What did the researchers use to observe the sharks?

A．Group technology.

B．Sensing technology.

C．Positioning technology.

D．Information technology.

【3】How do the sharks benefit from their group members according to Shiffman?

A．By following their example.

B．By sharing food with each other.

C．By solving problems through cooperation.

D．By keeping themselves strong through competition.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A．Sharks Are Not Cruel Animals

B．See A Shiver of Sharks? Calm Down

C．Everyone Needs Friends — Even Sharks

D．Large Groups or Small Groups: Which Is Better?

In Save Money: Good Food, she visits a different home each week and with the help of chef Matt Tebbutt offers top tips on how to reduce food waste, while preparing recipes for under £ 5 per family a day.

The eight-part series（系列节目），Save Money: Good Food , follows in the footsteps of ITV's Save Money: Good Health, which gave viewers advice on how to get value from the vast range of health products on the market.

With food our biggest weekly household expense, Susanna and Matt spend time with a different family each week.

24、Changing the Game

On a warm September evening in London, The Arch climbing wall, just south of the River Thames, is packed. Scores of people wander around on the thick crash pads, chatting, waiting their turn and offering the odd shout of encouragement to those clinging on to the colourful climbing walls.

Rock climbing was once classified as an “extreme sport”. But indoor centres like The Arch, which offer climbing without the need for rocks, are bringing it into the mainstream. The British Mountaineering Council estimates there are at least 248 public climbing walls in Britain, a number that has risen by 30% since 2010. In 2020 the sport’s governing bodies are hoping to see an even bigger increase in interest. Along with skateboarding, surfing and karate(空手道), rock climbing will be making its first appearance as an Olympic sport at the summer games in Tokyo.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) is frank about the ambition to appeal to a younger crowd who may be less familiar with longer-standing sports such as athletics and weightlifting. The crowd at the Arch is exactly what the IOC has in mind: mostly young professional letting off steam after work, who see climbing as a more engaging ans sociable alternative to jogging on running machines or pumping iron in a gym. Between them, the new sports will mean another 18 events and 474 athletes at the Tokyo games.

Officially, all four sports are delighted with their new status. But with the exception of karate, all of them have counter-cultural, anti-establishment roots. Some stars have wondered whether accepting the Olympic torch means going against their beliefs. Owen Wright, a famous surfer, has said that surfing is more art form than sport, and therefore not suitable for the games - though he has since gone back on his word, and hopes to represent Australia in Tokyo.

Adam Ondra, a Czech who is one of the world’s climbers, said he might steer clear of the games because of the format. The eventual Olympic champion will have to master all the three disciplines including bouldering (climbing without a rope, low to the ground, with a focus on hard, gymnastic moves), lead climbing (roped climbing up a tall wall of increasing difficulty) and speed climbing. Bouldering and lead climbing feature new routes in each stage of a competition, in an effort to imitate the variety of real rock. But speed climbing takes place on a standard, unvarying course. Because of this, said Mr. Ondra, “speed is a kind of artificial discipline ... and this is against the soul of climbing.”

Skateboarders, also notably rebellious, can be strikingly young. Sky Brown is set to become Britain’s youngest Olympian and has settled down to training. By the time of the Tokyo games, she will have turned 12.

【1】Which of the following statements is true about rock climbing？

A.It originated in The Arch, a sports centre on the River Thames.

B.It has evolved from a mainstream sport into an extreme sport.

C.Spectator’s encouragement contributes to its rapid expansion.

D.The increase in climbing walls reflects a growing interest in it.

【2】IOC introduced rock climbing into the Olympics in order to _________

A.familiarize the global population with the new sport

B.attract young people who lack interest in traditional sports

C.enable the young to let off their energy after work

D.challenge the dominant status of traditional sports

【3】What can you infer from the star athletes’ responses according to the passage?

A.Surfers are expected to strike a balance between art and sport in the Olympics.

B.Rock climbers must be self-disciplined if they are to win the championship.

C.Adam believes that the soul of climbing consists in its harmony with nature.

D.Strikingly young skateboarders have an advantage over other opponents.

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A.With the addition of new Olympics sports, stars are divided on whether to participate.

B.Rock climbing, skateboard, surfing and karate are accepted as Olympics sports.

C.Extreme sports athletes rebel against traditions while training for the Olympics.

D.The appeal of a new sport event consists is changing for format of this game.
