Question

A group of swimmers has described how a group of dolphins protected them from a group of white sharks （食人鯊）off the coast of New Zealand. The lifeguards were on a training swim when they came across a group of great white sharks before the dolphins raced in to help.

The swimmers were surrounded by the dolphins for forty minutes before they were able to make them safety back to the beach. It was an uncomfortable experience as they were circled by a group of white sharks, which came within a couple of meters of them. Lifeguard Rob Howes was in the water with a colleague and his teenage daughter. He said around half a dozen dolphins suddenly appeared and forced them to gather together. The mammals swam in tight circles to create a protective wall between the white sharks and the lifeguards as the great white sharks were under the surface.

The swimmers said the dolphins were extremely upset and repeatedly slapped (拍打) the water with their tails as if to try to prevent the white sharks from attacking them. It’s a day they’ll never forget, especially for one who was on her first day as a volunteer. They have no doubt that the dolphins acted on purpose to protect them. Researchers have said that they’re not surprised. A marine biologist insisted that dolphins, which are considered to be one of the most intelligent mammals, “l(fā)ike to help the helpless.”

試題分析:本文講述的是海豚幫助救生員躲過大白鯊的襲擊的故事

1.1】B細節(jié)推理題。根據(jù)第二段：Lifeguard Rob Howes was in the water with a colleague and his teenage daughter.可知被大白鯊襲擊的人有Rob Howes，Rob Howes的同事和Rob Howes的女兒這三個，故選B

2.C 細節(jié)推理題。根據(jù)第三段：The swimmers said the dolphins were extremely upset and repeatedly slapped (拍打) the water with their tails as if to try to prevent the white sharks from attacking them.可知海豚們反復(fù)地用尾部拍打海水是為了阻止大白鯊襲擊自己和救生員們，故選C

3.3】D細節(jié)推理題。根據(jù)第三段：It’s a day they’ll never forget, especially for one who was on her first day as a volunteer.中的her first day可知志愿者是一個女性，又根據(jù)前文提到被大白鯊襲擊的人有Rob Howes，Rob Howes的同事和Rob Howes的女兒，所以此處的a volunteer是Rob Howes的女兒，故選D

4.4】A主旨大意題。本文就是在講述一群海豚幫助救生員免受大白鯊的襲擊。故選A
