Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Dolphins are not fish; they’re mammals. They are warm-blooded like man and give birth to one baby called a calf at a time. At birth a calf is about 90—130cm long and grows to about 4m. They live up to 40 years. They are highly sociable animals.
Their teeth are interlocking rows of hooks, suitable for holding slippery fish. They eat fish whole starting with head first. When they go wild they keep their mouth open and sometimes keep it nodding to express their aggression. Greater aggression is shown by violent jaw clapping. Dolphins breathe through their blowhole(呼吸孔) located at the top of their head. The dolphin’s eyes produce a special slippery secretion(分泌物) which protects the eyes from foreign objects and water friction.
Dolphins use their powerful tail to move through the water. They also use their tail while hunting. They slap their tail rapidly when they get annoyed or when they want to indicate the sign of danger to alert other dolphins.
The dolphin’s skin is completely smooth allowing the dolphin to move easily through the water, and also reduce heat loss. Their skin may bear rake marks from other dolphin’s teeth during play or mating, and can easily become badly sunburned if they strand(擱淺).
Their bodies are very streamlined so they may swim at high speed through the water, and an example of this is their ears. Dolphin’s ears are barely noticeable marked only by a small hole just behind the eyes.
While sleeping, it shuts down only half of its brain, as its breathing is under voluntary control. Dolphins take short catnaps, floating just below the surface, and then slowly rising to breathe. Often dolphins are very active during night time, for some this is their main feeding time. Dolphins are able to dive to great depths, and also leap to great heights. They may leap to avoid predators or to show how powerful they are to females at mating time.

第三部分任務(wù)型閱讀（滿分10分）
Stress is an uncomfortable feeling in the mind from any situation or thought that makes you feel frustrated, angry, or anxious. Stress if often accompanied by physical symptoms, including twitching or trembling, muscle tension, headaches, sweating, dry mouth, difficulty swallowing, rapid or irregular heart rate, rapid breathing, fatigue, loss of temper, sleeping difficulties and nightmares, decreased concentration.
Stress is a normal part of life. In small quantities, stress is good – it can motivate you and help you be more productive. However, too much stress, or a strong response to stress, is harmful. It can cause general poor health as well as specific physical or depression. Persistent and never-ceasing stress often leads to anxiety and unhealthy behaviors like overeating and abuse of alcohol or drugs.
Certain drugs can lead to symptoms of stress due to side effects. Such drugs include caffeine, alcohol, nicotine, cocaine and diet pills. A poor diet – for example, low levels of vitamin B 12 – can also contribute to stress or anxiety. Performance stress is related to specific situations, like taking a test or making a presentation in public. Posttraumatic stress develops after an unforgettably shocking event like war, physical attacks, or a natural disaster.
Any effective ways to cope with your stress or anxiety? One step is to make a list of what you think might be making you ‘stress out’: What do you worry about most? Is something constantly on your mind? Does anything in particular make you sad or depressed?
Then, find someone you believe in who will listen to you. Often, just talking to a friend or loved one is all that is needed to relieve anxiety. Most communities also have support groups and hotlines that can help. Social workers, psychologists, and other mental health professionals may be needed for therapy and medication (療法和打坐).
Also, find healthy ways to deal with stress. For example, eat a well – balanced, healthy diet, don’t overeat, get enough sleep, exercise regularly, limit caffeine and alcohol. Don’t use nicotine, cocaine, or other recreational drugs. Learn and practice relaxation techniques like yoga and tai chi. Take breaks from work. Make sure to balance fun activities with your responsibilities. Spend time with people you enjoy. Find self – help books at your local library or bookstore.

A
Amiya Olden could have been a poster child for a reading crisis that affects nearly 2 million Michigan residents older than 1 6：They read below a sixth-grade level，which makes it difficult to find jobs and to improve their lives．Among them，Amiya is one．
Amiya Olden remembers well the day she graduated from Denby High school．She handed her diploma to her mother，who read it to her．“Then when someone asked me to read it，I could remember the things she read，and I knew what I had to say，”recalled Amiya Olden．“When we would go out to restaurants with my aunts，and that is when I really would get upset．1 would see words on the menu but I couldn’t read! ”
But don‘t feel sorry for her. She changed her life by reaching a point where she’d read enough．Two summers ago，she took charge of her life when she walked into Pro Literacy Detroit to improve her reading．Nineteen months ago，she was reading at a second-grade level；now at a fifth-grade level．
Olden now splits her days between her classes at Pro Literacy and the library，where she checks out books and reads them．She says she hopes her improved reading skills will help her find a good job．
And she has advice for others，who have trouble reading．
“Don’t give up on it，”she said．“Even though it can be challenging and you might get frustrated sometimes，practice does help．If you really want to be able to go somewhere，go out to a restaurant and you have to read signs and things like that，you want to know what you want to eat and where you want to go．．．If you want to succeed in life and grow，you have to read．More  important，you have to feel confident that you can．”

(C)
My first performance in front of an audience was coming up soon.
I tried as hard as I could to remain calm, but my heart was racing. I stared down at my sweat-covered, shaking hands.
I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were real people. They were not just my mum and dad, who would say, “Good job!” even if I messed up the entire piece.
What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes?
As it turned out, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight (聚光燈) was waiting for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat.
Slowly I walked to the mud-brown piano in the center of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golf-ball-sized lump (隆起部分) in my throat and sat down. Slowly, I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory (象牙色的) keys.
As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more unsure of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my years of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece so many times that I could play it backwards if requested.
Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically (自動(dòng)地).
My eyes burned holes into (were fixed on) the pages in front of me.

After the final note died away, a celebration went into action inside my head. I had finished. I had mastered the impossible.
