C篇鲸鱼鼻孔冷知识①Any schoolchild knows that a whale 【breathes through】1______...______ its blowhole. Fewer know that a blowhole is a nostril (鼻孔) slightly changed by 【evolution】2______ into a form more useful for a mammal that spends its life at sea. And only 【a dedicated expert】3_______________ would know that while toothed whales, such as sperm whales, have one hole, baleen (鲸须) whales, such as humpback and Rice whales, have two.
②Even among the baleen whales, 【the placing of those nostrils differs】4xx____________. In some 【species】5______ they are close together. In others, they 【are much further apart】6____________. In a paper published in Biology Letters Conor Ryan, a 【marine biologist】7__________________ at the Scottish Association for Marine Science, suggests why that might be. Having two nostrils, he argues, helps whales smell in stereo (立体空间).
③Many types of baleen whales eat tiny animals known as zooplankton (浮游动物), which they catch by 【filtering them from】8___..._______________ seawater using the sheets of fibrous baleen that have replaced teeth in their mouths. But to eat something you first have to find it. 【Toothed】9_________ whales do not 【hunt by scent】10__________________. In fact, the olfactory bulb—the part of the brain that processes smell—【is absent in】11______ such creatures. But baleen whales still have olfactory bulbs, which suggests 【smell remains important】12__________________. And 【scent】13______ can indeed 【give zooplankton away】14_________xx______. Zooplankton like to eat other 【tiny creatures】15____________ called phytoplankton (浮游植物). When these 【are under attack】16____________, they 【release a special gas】17________________________ called dimethyl sulphide, which 【in turn attracts】18_______________ baleen whales.
④Most animals have stereoscopic senses. Having two eyes, for instance, allows an animal to compare the images from each in order to 【perceive depth】19____________.

The researchers used drones to photograph the nostrils of 143 whales belonging to 14 different species. Sure enough, baleen whales that often eat zooplankton, such as the North Atlantic right whale, have nostrils that are farther apart than do those, such as humpback whales, that eat zooplankton 【occasionally】26_________. Besides allowing them to breathe, it seems that some whales use their blowholes to determine in which direction dinner lies.28.What do we know about whales' nostrils according to the first two paragraphs A. They are 【adapted】27_________ ones. B. They are developed merely for smell.C. They are not easy to 【detect】28______. D. They are fixed universally in numbers.29.

D篇人性与宽恕①Is 【forgiveness】1______ 【against our human nature】2____________ To answer our question, we need to ask a further question: What is 【the essence of our humanity】3____________ 【For the sake of simplicity】4__________________, people consider two 【distinctly different views】5_____________________ of humanity. The first view involves 【dominance and power】6_______________. In an early paper on the 【psychology】7_________ of forgiveness, Droll (1984) 【made the interesting claim】8_____________________ that humans' 【essential nature】9______ is more 【aggressive】10_________ than forgiving allows. Those who forgive are against their basic nature, much to their harm. In his opinion, forgivers are 【compromising their well-being】11______/_____________________ as they 【offer mercy to others】12____________, who might then 【take advantage of】13______ them.
②The second view involves the theme of cooperation, 【mutual respect】14____________, and even love 【as the basis of】15______..._________ who we are as humans. Researchers find that to fully grow as human beings, we need both to receive love from and offer love to others. Without love, our connections with a wide range of individuals in our lives can 【fall apart】16______. Even 【common sense】17______ strongly suggests that 【the will to power over others】18_____________________ does not 【make for harmonious interactions】19__________________.

Forgiveness can 【heal relationships】27____________ and reconnect people.
④As an important note, when we take a Classical 【philosophical perspective】28____________, that of Aristotle, we see the 【distinction between】29______ 【potentiality and actuality】30_______________. We are not necessarily 【born with the capacity】31_____________________ to forgive, but instead with the potential to learn about it and to grow in our ability to forgive. The actuality of forgiving, its actual appropriation in conflict situations, develops with practice.32. What is Droll's idea about forgiveness A. People should offer mercy to others.B. Aggressive people should learn to forgive.C. Forgiveness depends on the nature of humanity.D. People who forgive can have their own welfare affected.33.
