Whaling refers to ❹hunting (hunt) whales primarily for their oil, meat and bones. Whaling ❺dates_back_to (追溯到) prehistoric times, most prevalent in Norway and Japan. The hunt became an industry in the 1600s in the Arctic regions. It was mostly done by the Dutch and British. Whaling was in fact a major industry, ❻especially (especial) in New England: It supplied oil as an energy source, especially for lamps. American colonists ❼started (start) whaling in the 1700s.Nantucket whalers were the first ❽to_kill (kill) a sperm whale, and the discovery of sperm in the whale's head made the sperm whale one of the most highly prized catches.

In the Arctic Ocean waters live the social animals — belugas, which are also ❶known_as white whales. More than 210 belugas, including 31 in the United States, live in aquariums (水族馆) around the world. The Georgia Aquarium has asked for ❷permission to bring 18 more belugas into the US. The whales were caught off the coast of Russia. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is ❸considering the aquarium's request thoroughly. A law called the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) says the animals can only be brought into the country and ❹put_on_display if they are caught without being hurt and there is an ❺educational reason for doing so.
Georgia Aquarium officials say the 18 belugas will help people learn more about the species and allow scientists to better understand how ❻to_protect them. “When we can study and observe, we ❼gain_a_better_understanding_of their biology and diseases that affect them.” says William Hurley, Georgia Aquarium's chief officer. “Much of this research would be impossible in the remote locations and ❽extreme climates where the animals live.”
However, many scientists feel strongly that the whales ❾belong_to the ocean，not in tanks. These scientists say the whales are being used for entertainment and not for education，and having them in aquariums is not necessary for the species to ❿survive.

Ⅰ.阅读理解

(2019·山东师大附中高三模拟)The “swimwithdolphins” tourist industry is becoming more popular every year with the increase of people's income. After all, it can cost a large amount of money to have this kind of holiday experience. So tour operators try to place eager swimmers as near as possible to the dolphins by trying to predict where the dolphins will be.
Research has shown that while dolphins can move away if they do not want to interact (交流) with human swimmers, they do not like it at all if the swimmers slip into the water directly on top of them or if humans are in their path of travel. However, if swimmers enter the water to one side of them, the dolphins do not avoid the swimmers to the same extent.
In all cases, the dolphins seem to have become more sensitive to the presence of the swimmers. For dolphins, swimming amongst or with humans is not necessarily a high priority. This research has shown that only 19% of any group of dolphins will participate in interaction. Young dolphins are the most likely to interact; they do seem curious about being with humans. It is believed that they see humans as “entertainment” and that the interaction is a new and unusual experience for them.
It is frequently asked whether “swimwithdolphins” tourism should be discontinued. The advice is that dolphins should be given enough periods of time throughout the day when they are not exposed to tourism. Permitted interactions should not be too disturbing to the dolphins since there could be mothers and calves (幼崽) present in dolphin groups. There should also be educational campaigns about the creatures and what is likely to cause danger to them.
It is not easy to explain to someone that they cannot fulfill their lifelong dreams because the dolphins are resting, or a mother dolphin and her calf are in the area. But if we are to enjoy these remarkable animals and not just use them for our entertainment, then we must carefully monitor the “swimwithdolphins” industry worldwide.

(2019·陕西部分高中摸底考试)Scientists are preparing to launch the world's first machine to clean up the planet's largest mass of ocean plastic.
The experts believe the machine should be able to collect half of the detritus in the patch — about 40,000 metric tons — within five years. In the past few weeks they have been busy welding together giant tubes that will sit on the surface of the sea and form the skeleton of the machine, creating the largest floating barrier ever made.
The system, originally dreamt up by Mr. Slat, will be shipped out this summer to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, between Hawaii and California, which contains estimated 1.8 trillion pieces of plastic. It will be the first ever attempt to tackle the patch since it was discovered in 1997.
Mr. Slat was 16 and still at school when he was diving in Greece and first saw for himself the amount of plastic polluting the sea. “There were more bags than fish down there，” he recalls. Two years later he came up with a solution, quit university after six months and set up The Ocean Cleanup as a company. Mr. Slat says the first plastic to arrive on shore will be a major milestone. “We as humanity created this problem, so I think it's also our responsibility to help solve it，” he says.
The Great Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP) covers an area of 1.6 million square kilometers and contains at least 79,000 tons of plastic, research found last month. Most of it is made up of “ghost gear” — parts of abandoned and lost fishing gear, such as nets and ropes — often from illegal fishing vessels.
Ghost gear kills more than 100,000 whales, dolphins and seals each year, according to scientific surveys. Seabirds and other marine life are increasingly being found dead with stomachs full of small pieces of plastic. Creatures eat plastic discarded in the sea thinking it's food but then starve to death because they are not feeding properly. Others are trapped and die of starvation or are strangled or suffocated by ghost gear.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了世界首个海洋垃圾清扫机的发明。

7．Why do some creatures in The Great Pacific Garbage Patch die of starvation?
A．Because they are killed by ghost gear.
B．Because they are suffocated by ghost gear.
C．Because they don't like eating plastic.
D．Because they are not feeding properly.
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据最后一段倒数第二句中的“but then starve to death because they are not feeding properly”可知，大太平洋垃圾带的一些生物死于饥饿是因为它们不能真正地进食。
8．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．A report about the death of marine life.
