    As dangerous as sharks may have seed to people after watching Jaws, which was released on June 20,1975, the recent disastrous decrease in their numbers show that people have proven far more dangerous to sharks.

        This disastrous decline is due in large part to commercial fishing of sharks. “The market for

    shark fins（鱼翅）in East Asia opened up thanks to changes in their economy, increasing their

    ability to spend money on things such as shark fin soup,” Burgess said.

    However, the biggest worry for sharks and their relatives, the skates and rays, which are suffering a similar fate, “is how they are killed incidentally when fishermen try and take other fish—the problem of bycatch（渔业混获）,” Burgess explained. “They may be thrown back afterward, but they’re still dead.”

    The key of the problems behind bringing sharks back is that “they’re not the same as other fish,” Burgess said, “Sharks are slow growing and slow to reach maturity. Sharks are live bearers, which means females keep their young in their body just like us, but instead of nine months, it takes 12 to 18 months or more in sharks. Also, sharks generally can’t give birth again until a year after they’ve given birth—sometimes they’re on a three-year cycle. So once you get a shark population knocked down, this ‘life in the slow lane’ means that recovery is measured in decades rather than years.”\

    Burgess said, “I’m on the recovery team for it, but the recovery plan for that is over the course of 100 years. So I won’t see them recover, nor will you, nor will your children. That’s what it means when these animals go down—they’re down a long time.”

    Any measures aimed at saving sharks must not only consider byeatch, “which is the real killer right now,” but also encourage interactional cooperation, Burgess said.

    “Sharks are very migratory, and many species cross borders,” he said. “We can protect them only by getting many govemment to come aboard. That’s the hardest part about this.”

    The text mainly tells us       .

    Humpback whales

    Humpback whales are sometimes called performers of the ocean. This is because they can make impressive movements when they dive. The name “humpback”, which is the common name for this whale, refers to the typical curve shape the whale’s back forms as it dives.
    Sometimes the humpback will dive with a fantastic movement, known as a breach. During breaching the whale uses its powerful tail flukes to lift nearly two-thirds of its body out of the water in a giant leap. A breach might also include a sideways twist with fins stretched out like wings, as the whale reaches the height of the breach.
    A humpback whale breathes air at the surface of the water through two blowholes which are located near the top of the head. It blows a double stream of water that can rise up to 4 meters above the water.
    The humpback has a small dorsal fin located towards the tail flukes about two-thirds of the way down its back. Other distinguishing features include large pectoral fins, which may be up to a third of the body length, and unique black, and white spots on the underside of the tail flukes. These markings are like fingerprints: no two are the same.
    Humpback whales live in large groups. They communicate with each other through complex “songs”.
    		Quick Facts
    Size:
    		14m~18m in length
    30~50 tons in weight
    Living environment:
    		Open ocean and shallow coastline waters
    Migration:
    		From warm tropical (热带的) waters, where they breed, to cold polar waters, where they eat.
    Diet:
    		Shellfish, plants and fish of small size
    Hunting:
    		Sometimes in groups, in which several whales form a circle under the water, blowing bubbles that form a “net” around a school of fish. The fish are then forced up to the surface in a concentrated mass.
    Current state:
    		Endangered: it is estimated that there are about 5000~7000 humpback whales worldwide.

    D
    Are you afraid of sharks? You shouldn’t be! Below we cleared up the main myths about one of the world’s most perfectly formed creatures …
    All sharks are the same.
    This is absolutely not true. There are nearly four hundred species of sharks and they vary widely in habitat, size, features, diet and lifestyle. They range from the cigar shark, which is about 15 centimetres long, to the whale shark, which can be up to about nine meters long. More than 50 percent of sharks are less than a metre long and more than 90 percent are less than two metres long. And their habitat ranges from shallow to deep water and from the Arctic to the Tropic.
    ___________________
    This is not true, either. In fact, many shark populations are decreasing. The chief reason for this is that hundreds of thousands of them are caught in fishing nets. Depending on where they are caught. They are either killed for their fins(鳍), which are used in shark’s fin soup, or they are tossed back into the sea because they are unwanted. Almost all sharks which are discarded in this way die. Also, sharks mature late in life and produce very few young. If the current reduction in numbers continues, the ecological balance of the oceans will be severely threatened.
    Sharks will always attack you
    This is nonsense. The chances of being attacked by a shark are minimal. You are 250 times more likely to be killed by lightning than by a shark, and your chances of being killed by lightning are practically zero.
    However, if you are planning to take a swim in shark territory, then follow these simple rules:
    Avoid swimming at dawn or duck when visibility decreases.
    Avoid areas where there are breaking waves. Turbulent(汹涌的) water makes it difficult for sharks to see and determine whether you are prey(猎物).
    Do not wear jewellery in the water. Sharks are attracted to shiny fishes, and jewellery may resemble their scales(鳞片).
    Do not swim near schools of small fish, which are the favorite food of some sharks.
    68. The underlined word “myths” in the first paragraph means ____.
    A. an idea or story that many people believe but which is not true   
    B. something that is impossible to understand or explain or about which little is known
    C. a feeling of surprise        
    D. something that you are curious to know 
    69. From the passage we can learn sharks ____.
    A. look alike B. are dangerous   
    C. usually live in deep sea    D. hardly attack people
    70. Which of the following is proper for the blank in the third paragraph?
    A. Sharks’ fin soup is nutritious                
    B. There are too many sharks in the sea
    C. Many shark populations are decreasing  
    D. Sharks produce many young
    71. Which of the following rules should you follow when you’re going to swim in shark areas?
    A. Don’t swim before day breaks.              
    B. Choose areas where there are big waves.
    C. Wear something shiny when swimming.
    D. Choose areas where there are many small fish.
