Some scientists say that animals in the ocean are increasingly threatened（威胁） by noise pollution caused by human beings. The noise that affects（影响）sea animals comes from a number of human activities. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.

Decibels(分贝) measured in water are different from those measured（测量）on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land caused pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect.

Some scientists have planned to set a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in oceans. They have found that noises at that level can frighten and confuse(混淆) whales.

A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that loud noises can seriously hurt some animals. The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales’ ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected.

Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds disagree to a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial（工业的）and scientific research. Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists suspect（怀疑） that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to stop noises from harming creatures in the ocean.

1.According to the passage, which of the following is increasingly dangerous to sea animals?

A. The man-made noises.　　　　 　 B. The noises made by themselves.

C. The sound of earthquakes.　　 D. The sound of the ice-breaking.

2.Which of the following is discussed in the second paragraph(段落)?

A. Different places with different types of noises.

B. The human ears have feelings to all types of noises.

C. The same noise measured differently on land and in the ocean.

D. The ocean animal’s reaction to noises.

3. As to the influence of noises on whales, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. They are deaf because of noises.

B. Noises at a certain level may hurt them.

C. They are easily confused by noises.

D. Noises will limit their ability to reproduce.

4. We can know from the passage that many scientists think that the noise limit(限制) of one hundred twenty decibels would __________.

A. stop them from doing their research work

B. benefit them a lot in their research work

C. do good to their health

D. increase the industrial output（产量）

5.According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future?

A. They will try their best to make no noise.

B. They will work hard to cut down natural noises.

C. They will study the effect of different noises.

D. They will protect animals from harmful noises.

Nearly all our food comes from the soil. Some of us eat meat, of course, but animals live on plants. If there were no plants, we would have no animals and no meat. So the soil is very necessary for life. The top of the ground is usually covered with grass or other plants. There may be dead leaves and dead plants on the grass. The waste matter(粪) from animals also falls on it.

All soil needs food. If we do not give it any, the plants will be weak. Farmers found that animals’ waste is the best food for the soil, but chemical fertilizers(化肥) are also very useful. The same crop（庄稼）should not be grown in the same place every year; it ’s better to have a different crop. A change of crop and the use of a good fertilizer will keep the land good.

1.Which of the following is true ?

A. All our food comes from the soil.　　 B. Most of our food comes from the soil.

C. None of our food comes from the soil.　　 D. All our food comes from animals.

2.Which is the best food for soil in the field?

A. Chemical fertilizers.　　 B. Plants and grass.　　 C. Animals’ waste.　　 D. Different crops.

3.Why do we often grow a different crop in the same place every year?

The right name is important in the business world. All you have to do is think of the names for some of the products you buy every day and you’ll agree that the name and the product are connected in the everyone’s mind.

In many countries, successful trade or brand names are protected by law. This is so that other companies cannot make a product and, in fact, be buying something different. Businesses register a company or a product name with the government. In fact, more than 1,000 product and company names are registered every hour. Many companies spend a lot of money to find the right name for their products. A good example of this is. In the car industry. Some successful names for cars have powerful associations （联系）.The Ford Mustang and the Jaguar are only two examples of choosing the names of animals that are fast and strong.

When a U. S company decides to sell its product in another country, it has to make sure that the product name translates properly. When Coca-Cola introduced its soft drink to China, it looked for the right name. It wanted a name that would do two things. One was to present its image（形象）in Chinese and the second was to be close to its first brand name—Coke. It took some efforts before finding the right word —which sounds similar and translates as “happiness in the mouth”. Asian company names are not new to the United States. The brand names of Samsung and Sony have been successful. Finding the right brand name is a big business. Asian companies that sell to foreign markets pay to find a name that will connect with its customers. There are even naming companies that specialize in inventing product names. These companies can charge （要价）up to $100,000 a word for their creations. But it’s worth it. Successful companies know how important the right brand names are for their development.

1.Why are trade names protected by law in many countries?

A. To make companies pay for naming service.

B. To help people choose the best products

C. To present good images of the products.

D. To prevent good images from being copied

2.What can we learn from the passage?

A. Many companies care about the cost of finding the right names

B. Creative trade names can help companies to have a larger sale

C. The government often does business with naming companies

D. It is considered necessary for cars to be names after animals

3.What’s the best title for the passage?

A. The Business of Names
