Amy is a biologist(生物学家)working at a marine(海洋的) park. These kinds of parks provide fun and education for tens of thousands of people each year.
Amy takes care of many animals in the park, but she also does important research. As she observes the animals that she looks after, she learns more about their needs and behavior. This information helps the animals in the park, but it can also be used to protect other members of the species in the wild.
It's hard work to look after these animals. Their needs often change according to different hours of the day. So Amy must depend on her science knowledge and good number sense to help her make the right decisions all day long.
Even though dolphins spend much of their time underwater, they are mammals(哺乳动物). This means that they must come to the surface to take in air. Dolphins give birth to their young. They're not hatched from eggs. Just like all other mammals, mother dolphins must nurse, or feed milk to their babies.
Amy and her team know this first-hand. One of their dolphins recently gave birth. A baby dolphin is not small, either. It was almost 1 meter long the day it was born. A big dolphin usually eats about 4% of its body weight in food every day. Amy knows that a mother dolphin that is nursing needs twice the food. So when the baby dolphin was born, Amy immediately doubled the mother's food every day.
41. How much food does a 300 kg mother dolphin need every day
A. 600kg. B. 12kg. C. 24kg D. 52 kg.
42. What does Amy need to make the right decision according to this passage
A. Good eyes and quick mind.
B. Swimming skills and spirit of competition.
C. Love and care for animals.
D. Science knowledge and good number sense.
43. What does the underlined word "observes" in Paragraph 2 mean
A. nurses the young animals B. watches something carefully
C. plays with something D. says something about
44. Why is the information Amy learns very helpful
A. It helps to protect the animals in the park as well s those in the wild.
B. It offers fun and education to tens of thousands of people.
C. It helps dolphins to feed milk to their babies.
D. It helps underwater animals to come to the surface.
45. This passage is mainly about _____________.
A. dolphins' life and food B. Amy's job at a marine park
C. education in a park D. protecting animals in the wild
【答案】41. C 42. D 43. B 44. A 45. B
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲了艾米是一位在海洋公园工作的生物学家。这些公园每年为数万人提供娱乐和教育。艾米在公园里照顾许多动物，但她也做重要的研究。照顾这些动物很辛苦。他们的需求经常因一天中不同的时间而变化。所以艾米必须依靠她的科学知识和良好的数字意识来帮助她整天做出正确的决定。
41.理解计算题。根据最后一段“A big dolphin usually eats about 4% of its body weitht in food every day. Amy knows that a mother dolphin that is nursing needs twice the food. 一只大海豚通常每天吃它身体重量的4%左右的食物。艾米知道正在哺乳的海豚妈妈需要两倍的食物”可以计算出重300千克的海豚妈妈每天需要吃的食物重量为300 x4%x2=24Kg，故选C。
42.细节理解题。根据第三段“So Amy must depend on her science knowledge and good number sense to help her make the right decisions all day long. 所以艾米必须依靠她的科学知识和良好的数字意识来帮助她整天做出正确的决定”可知Amy需要通过科学知识和良好的数字意识来做出决定，故选D。
43.词义猜测题。根据第二段”As she observes the animals that she looks after, she learns more about their needs and behavior .当她观察她照顾的动物时，她会更多地了解它们的需要和行为”可知Amy通过仔细观察来了更多解动物的需要和行为，所以划线单词的意思应该是是仔细观察，故选B。

Amy is a biologist(生物学家)working at a marine(海洋的) park. These kinds of parks provide fun and education for tens of thousands of people each year.
Amy takes care of many animals in the park, but she also does important research. As she observes the animals that she looks after, she learns more about their needs and behavior. This information helps the animals in the park, but it can also be used to protect other members of the species in the wild.
It's hard work to look after these animals. Their needs often change according to different hours of the day. So Amy must depend on her science knowledge and good number sense to help her make the right decisions all day long.

A big dolphin usually eats about 4% of its body weight in food every day. Amy knows that a mother dolphin that is nursing needs twice the food. So when the baby dolphin was born, Amy immediately doubled the mother's food every day.
41. How much food does a 300 kg mother dolphin need every day
A. 600kg. B. 12kg. C. 24kg D. 52 kg.
42. What does Amy need to make the right decision according to this passage
A. Good eyes and quick mind.
B. Swimming skills and spirit of competition.
C. Love and care for animals.
D. Science knowledge and good number sense.
43. What does the underlined word "observes" in Paragraph 2 mean

A. It helps to protect the animals in the park as well s those in the wild.
B. It offers fun and education to tens of thousands of people.
C. It helps dolphins to feed milk to their babies.
D. It helps underwater animals to come to the surface.
