17、beautiful and friendly dolphins.And the luckier people among us may have even had the chance to swim with these amazing creatures.At the same time,however,we cant help but think that these animals would be happier in the wild,rather than be forced to perform for humans in captivity(圈养).According to

19、g and her team put together a series of experiments to figure out how captive dolphins felt about their lives.“We wanted to find out what activities in captivity they like most,”she told BBC News.There were three kinds of experiment:one in which the dolphins were let alone,one in which toys were add

26、cities in the UK today and you can see graffiti on buildings,walls,doors and even on buses or trains that have stayed in one place for too long.But where modern technology creates a problem,it also finds a way to deal with it.Last week,The Weekend West was shown around the factory of a small but suc
