21、   Many people say dolphins are very intelligent. They seem to be able to think understand and learn things quickly. But are they smart like humans or more than cats or dogs? Dolphins use their brains differently from people. But scientists say dolphin intelligence and human intelligence are similar in some ways. How?

Like humans every dolphin has its own “name”. The name is a special whistle. Each dolphin chooses a specific whistle for itself usually by its first birthday. Actually scientists think dolphins like people “talk” to each other about a lot of things such as their age their feelings or finding food. And like humans dolphins use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. But understanding their conversations is not easy for humans. No one speaks “dolphin” yet but some scientists are trying to learn.

Dolphins are also social animals. They live in groups and they often join others from different groups to play games and have fun—just like people. In fact playing together is something only intelligent animals do.

Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: both make plans to get something they want. In the seas of southern Brazil for example dolphins use an interesting strategy to get food. When fish are near a boat dolphins show signs to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method the men can catch a lot of fish. What is the advantage for the dolphins in doing so? They get to eat some of the fish.

【1】What does the word "similar "in the last paragraph mean in Chinese?

A.相反的 B.相似的

C.熟恐的 D.陌生的

【2】What does the word "other " refer to?

A.Other fishes B.Other people

C.Other games D.Other dolphins

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A.Humans join dolphins groups to get things we want.

B.Dolphins may help fishermen by using their body language.

C.Dolphins can talk to humans about their age and their feelings

D.Some scientists can understand all the sounds made by dolphins

【4】What's the main idea of the passage?

A.Dolphins can communicate with each other at birth.

B.Dolphins are social animals because they play together

C.Dolphins are smart and are like humans in some ways.

D.Dolphins help humans do many things like catching fish.
