18、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 a recent study though, we neednt think like that. The study, which was published
19、in the journal Applied Animal Behavior Science, was led by scientist.As the first of its kind, the studys aim was to look at captivity from the animals point of view, according to BBC News. Over the course of three years, Clegg and her team put together a series of experiments to figure out how capt
20、ive 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 added to their pool, and one in which a human played with the dolphins.It
21、 was found that of the three types of experiment, the dolphins seemed to enjoy playing with humans the most. “Their leaping from the water during training and their curious approaches to the edge of the pool appeared to be enthusiastic,” wrote BBC News science correspondent Victoria Gill.

This means that any animal that is born in captivity can never be sent back into the wild,” it wrote on its website.But while this may be true, at least it seems that captive dolphins still enjoy happy moments with humans.8In what way is Clegg and her teams research special?A.

Dolphins would be badly treated.B. Dolphins could never return to nature.C. Dolphins could die in a short time.D. Dolphins would be f
26、orced to perform.11What is the authors attitude towards dolphins in captivity?A. Casual.B. Concerned.C. Uncertain.D. Positive.DIts about time somebody destroyed that old myth (神话) about childhood being the happiest period of your life. Childhood may certainly be fairly happy, but its greatest moment
27、s cant compare with the joy of being an adult. Who ever asked a six-year-old for opinion? Children dont have opinions, or if they do, nobody notices. Adults choose the clothes their children will wear, the books they will read and the friends they will play with. Mother and father are kind but compl
28、ete dictators (独裁者). This is an adult world.You must have heard these words about how happy it is to be a child. But which adult would honestly change places with a child? Every movement you make, every thought you think is observed by some adults. Remember how gentle pressure was given to you with
29、words like “if you dont do as I say, I will.” Im sure you will never forget!Even so, these are only part of childs trouble. No matter how kind and loving parents may be, children often suffer from terrible and illogical fears since they cant understand the world around them. They often have such fea

Teenagers start to be against their parents and thi
31、s causes them unhappiness. There is a complete lack of self-confidence during this time. Adolescents pay much attention to their appearance and the impression they make on others. They feel shy, awkward and clumsy. Feelings are intense and hearts easily broken. Teenagers experience moments of great
32、happiness or black despair. And through this period, adults seem to be unkind than ever.What a happy time it is to grow up. Suddenly you get your balance; the world opens up before you. You are free to choose; you have your own place to live in and your own money to spend. You do not have to ask app
