          A study conducted in the Svalbard Archipelago of;Norway showed the first recorded case of polar bears seeking out white-beaked dolphins(白喙斑纹海豚) for prey(猎物) . Warming waters have allowed the dolphins to travel north to an area they would normally avoid until summertime. “It is likely that new species are appearing in the diet of polar bears due to climate change because new species are finding their way north,” study author Jon Aars said.

          Arctic waters have warmed at a rate twice that of southern waters,putting the ice-loving bears in trouble. Polar bears typically sit on large pieces of ice to hunt swimming seals,but without the platform of ice to sit on,the bears have to look elsewhere for food. Two ice-free winters attracted the dolphins into the Arctic region,where their food has also shown up thanks to warm water. But a sudden influx (汇集)of ice trapped the dolphins,making them easy prey for hungry plar bears.

          The scientists from the Norwegian Polar Institute first discovered this eating habit in April,2014 and documented another five cases in the following year. Most of the bears appeased well-fed,although one was visibly thin and found covering a dead dolphin with ice as a means to hide his food source from other animals —another strategy that scientists had not yet seen before.

         It' s unlikely that there are enough dolphins to feed the large population of polar bears. And as the bears were only able to hunt the dolphins because of a sudden storm,their consumption could be a fluke(使幸) .

         Polar bears living in Canada and Alaska have been found traveling north to live in the icy regions they need,but Svalbard is about as far north as it gets before the water becomes too deep to serve as a livable habitat,leaving the bears with nowhere else to go.

   A. Loss of habitat:    B. No other prey.

   A. appear well-fed

   B. get nothing to eat

   C. hide food from other animals

   D. share food with other polar bears

12. After polar bears reach Svalbard,they .

   A. get no dolphins to eat

   B. cannot go any further northward
