Part Two Reading Comprehension
Directions
 In this part there are passages and one listing, each followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.

Questions 11-15 are based on the following passage:
 A mother dolphin(海豚) chats with her baby over the telephone! They were in separate tanks connected by a special underwater audio link.” It seemed clear that they knew who they were talking with” says Don White, whose Project Delphis ran the experiment. But what were they saying?

Scientists think dolphins “talk” about everything from basic facts like age to their emotional state. “I speculate that they say things like ‘there are some good fish over here,’ or ‘watch out for that shark because he’s hunting.’” says Denise Herzing, who studies dolphins in the Bahamas.
  Deciphering(译解) “dolphin speak” is also tricky because their language is so dependent on what they’re doing, whether they’re playing, fighting, or going after tasty fish. During fights, for example, dolphins clap(碰撞) their jaws to say “Back off!” But their jaws clap while playing, too as if to show who’s king of the underwater playground.

11. How did the mother dolphin talk with her baby over the telephone?
A. Two connected tanks were separated for the talk.
B. A special underwater audio link was set up for the talk.
C. Both the mother dolphin and the baby knew each other.
D. A clear voice could be heard in the two separate tanks.
12.Dolphins seem to talk to each other about any of the following EXCEPT___.
   A. their age                      B. their emotional state

13. Why is it challenging to interpret “dolphin speak”?
A. Because dolphins’ language heavily relies on their actions.
B. Because dolphins like to talk about their language.
C. Because playing and fighting are part of dolphins’ life.
D. Because tasty fish are difficult for dolphins to catch.
14. A dolphin might be saying “____” when it claps its jaws.
A. Go back to your home!    B. Who is playing here!
C. I am the king here!         D. Show me who the king is!

Questions 16-20 are based on the following passage:
    An American company has started testing a new program aimed at increasing security. Three workers from CityWatcher.com, a company that provides security came equipment, have volunteered to be electronically monitored. They will have a silicon chip put inside their arms. The tiny device is the size of a grain of rice and will send out radio signals. These will provide information to a central monitoring system that will give the workers access to secure areas of the workplace. The chips were originally designed for medical purposes.
