第1题：
Of the 32 categories, eight were produced only by the Irish dolphins.
A．Right
B．Wrong
C．Not mentioned
解析：问题中的关键词是eight。利用问题句中的特征词32 categories，eight，Irish(爱尔兰的)dolphins共同作为答案线索，对应原文第三第二句，Of the categories，he found most were used by both sets of dolphins—but eight were only heard from the Irish dolphins．从句中可以知道答案相关句与问题句的句意一致：32种啸声中有8种是爱尔兰海豚独有的，所以答案是A。

第3题：
Irish Dolphins May Have a Unique Dialect
Irish scientists monitoring dolphins living in a river estuary in the southwest of the country believe they may have developed a unique dialect to communicate with each other.
The Channel Dolphin and Wildlife Foundation (SDWF) has been studying a group of up to 120 bottle-nose dolphins in the River Shannon using vocalisations collected on a computer in a cow shed near the River Shannon.
As part of a research project, student Ronan Hickey digitised and analysed a total of 1,882 whistles from the Irish dolphins and those from the Welsh dolphins on a computer and separated them into six fundamental whistle types and 32 different categories. Of the categories, he found most were used by both sets of dolphins—but eight were only heard from the Irish dolphins.
"We are building up a catalogue of the different whistle types they use and trying to associate them with behaviour like foraging, resting, socialising and the communications of groups with calves," project leader Simon Berrow said. "Essentially we are building up what is like a dictionary of words they use or sounds they make. "
Berrow, a marine biologist, said the dolphins' clicks are used to find their way around and locate prey. The whistles are communications. "They do a whole range of other sounds like barks, groans and a kind of gunshot. " He said. "The gunshot is an intense pulse of sound. Sperm whales use it to stun their prey. "
"When I first heard it I was surprised as I thought sperm whales were the only species who used it. We can speculate the dolphins are using it for the same reason as the sperm whales. " Berrow said.
References in local legend indicate there have been dolphins in the Shannon estuary for generations and they may even have been resident there as far back as the 6th century.
They are regularly seen by passengers on the Shannon ferry and an estimated 25,000 tourists every year take special sightseeing tours on local boats to visit them.
The difference in eating habits between the bottle-nose dolphins and the sperm whales interested the SDWF scientists.
A．Right
B．Wrong
C．Not mentioned
解析：问题中的关键词是eating，利用问题句中的信息词bottle-nose dolphins，sperm whales，eating habits和特征词SDWF(香农海豚与野生动物基金会)scientists共同作为答案线索，对应内容在原文第二段、第三段，原文中只提到科学家们研究了啸声，而未出现eating，或相关词food食物，feed喂食等内容，因此判断为未提及。
第4题：
Irish Dolphins May Have a Unique Dialect
Irish scientists monitoring dolphins living in a river estuary in the southwest of the country believe they
may have developed a unique dialect to communicate with each other.
The Shannon Dolphin and Wildlife Foundation(SDWF)has been studying a group of up to 120 bottle-
nose dolphins in the River Shannon using vocalizations（发声）collected on a computer in a cow shed near the
River Shannon.
As part of a research project,student Ronan Hickey digitized and analyzed a total of 1,882 whistles from
the Irish dolphins and those from the Welsh dolphins on a computer and separated theni into six fundamental
whistle types and 32 different categories.Of the categories,he found most were used by both sets of dol-
phins一but eight were only heard from the Irish dolphins.
"We are building up a catalogue of the different whistle types they use and trying to associate them with
behavior like foraging（觅食）,resting, socializing and the communications of grown.ups with calves (幼
仔）,"project leader Simon Berrow said.“Essentially we are building up what is like a dictionary of words
they use or sounds they mnake."
Berrow,a marine biologist,said the dolphins'clicks are used to find their way around and locate prey.
The whistles are communications."They do a whole range 0f other sounds like barks．groans and a kind of
gunshot," he said. "The gunshot is an intense pulse（脉冲）of sound. Sperm whales use it to stun（击昏）
their prey.”
"When I first heard it I was surprised as I thought sperm whales were the onlyh species who used it. We
can speculate the dolphins are using it for the same reason as the sperm whales,"Berrow said.
References in local legend indicate there have been dolphins in the Shannon estuary for generations and
they may even have been residents there as far back as the 6th century.
They are regularly seen by passengers on the Shannon ferry and an estimated 25.000 tourists every year
take special sightseeing tours on local boats to visit them.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned
利用题干句的特征词32 categorie、和eight作为线索，找到相关句“…32 different catego-ries.Of the categories,he found most were used by both sets of dolphins一but eight were only heard from the Irish dolphins.”这与题干句意思一致，故选A。
利用题干句的特征词communicate、 adult和baby为线索，找到相关句“…of the different whistle types…to aggociate them with behavior like…and the communicationg of grown-ups with calves"，这是说科学家正在设法将哨声与海豚的行为联系起来，如成年海豚用它来与小海豚进 行沟通。题干句的意思与原文的意思相符，所以答案是A。
利用题干句的特征词Simon Berrow和dictionary为线索，找到相关句“…Simon Berrow said,'…we are building up what jg like a dictionary of wordc they uce or g ound、 they make'”,；坟 与题干句意思完全吻合，所以选A。
利用题干句的特征词pulses of sound为线索，查找原文，找到“The gunshot is an intense pulse（脉冲）of sound.Sperm whales use it to stun their prey.”。但是是不是只有抹香鲸会用脉冲 呢？继续看下文，发现下一段说海豚也会用，所以题干句的内容不正确：
利用6th century这个特征词在原文中可以找到相关信息，在倒数第2段，意为“……早 在公元6世纪，海豚就在香农河河口繁衍生息”，而不是“被渔民养殖”，所以答案是B
利用特征词25,000为线索，查找原文，找到“…an estimated 25 , 000 tourists every year take special sightseeing tours on local boats to visit them."；还需要确定该句中的they是否指代 Irish dolphins，借助前句内容知道they指代Shannon河口的海豚，由文章开头两段可知River Shannon是爱尔兰的河流，所以答案是A。第3部分：概括大意与完成句子
第5题：
A. IKE
B. BGP
C. RSVP
D. LDP
第6题：
As early as the 6th century, Irish fishermen started raising dolphins in the Shannon estuary.
A．Right
B．Wrong
C．Not mentioned
解析：问题中的关键词是raise，利用信息结构as early as the 6th century和特征结构Irish fishermen及Shannon estuary共同作为答案线索，对应原文第七段．References in local legend indicate there have been dolphins in the Shannon estuary for generations and they may even have been resident there as far back as the 6th century．原文中指出早在公元6世纪海豚就在香农河口繁衍生息，而不是早在公元6世纪渔民开始在香农河河口养殖海豚。题句的意思与之不符，所以答案是B。
第7题：
A.if
B.so that
C.while
D.whenever
第8题：
Ronan Hickey analyzed almost 2000 different dialects of the bottle-nose dolphins.
A．Right
B．Wrong
C．Not mentioned
解析：问题中的关键词组是of the bottle-nose dolphins。利用问题句中的特征词Ronan Hickey(人名)和2000 different(不同的)dialects为答案线索，对应原文第三段第一句，…student Ronan Hiekey digitised and analyzed a total of 1,882 whistles from the Irish dolphins and those from the welsh dolphins…可知Ronan Hickey不是分析宽吻海豚，而是爱尔兰海豚和威尔士海豚发出的近2000种不同的啸声(不是方言)。所以，本题选项B是答案。
