B ★★★★☆
Sperm whles (抹香鲸) talk to each other in (短而尖的声音) .“There's a lot of debate if culture is exclusive to humans or if you can find it in animals,too,” says Mauricio Cantor,a biologist. Earlier research has suggested that dolphins,birds and a few other wild animals have it too.
Sperm whales can make som? of the deepest dives among all the animals in the sea. They usually swim in small units of 12 or so,moms,grandmas,aunts and friends. These units are part of larger groups of 30 to 300 whales,or a clan (家族) . Individuals in each clan talk to each other using different patterns of clicks. These varying patterns are similar to dialects in human speech. Females do most of the talking.
Cantor and his colleagues wanted to know how the whales got their unique dialects. They recorded the whales’s behavior. Back in their lab,the scientists loaded all of these data into a computer. The research showed that the whales had to learn their dialects from other whales around them.
Scientists refer to this as social learning. a Social ;learning is the foundation(基础) of culture,” Cantor says. Because sperm whales learn their dialects from their families,there are cultural differences between clans .
Luke Rendell in Scotland points out that the new findings are based on a computer model of how the sperm whale dialects come to be. "Like all models,they may be wrong,but the?v,are also usefill. They may help improve more researchN on cultural processes in non-human societies,” he says.
5. The underlined word “exclusive” in Paragraph 1 means
A. important 'v B. limited
C. meaningful D. common
6. What do we know about sperm whales from Paragraph 2 ?
A. Males talk a lot.

C. They can understand human speech.
D. Each family has its own communicative pattern.
7. How do sperm whales get their dialects?
A. They copy other whales.
B. They are bom with them.
C. They create them themselves.
D. They learn them from visitors.
8. What does Rendell think of the new findings?
A. They are inspiring.
B. They are successful,
C. They are misleading.
D. They are meaningless.

In the mid-1800s,two chance events occurred in the life of a young “gold rusher” that resulted in the creation of the world's first pair of jeans. Twenty-three-year-old Levi Strauss,a Bavarian immigrant (?? R.) working at his brothers,dry goods store in New York City,didn't join the gold rush. He wanted to sell diy goods to the miners.
So in January of 1853,Levi Strauss began selling dry goods in San Francisco. Business went well for him and Levi became a wealthy man. Then the first chance event presented itself to Levi.

Then the second chance event occurred. Jacob Davis,a Nevada tailor (^ invented a method of strengthening the trousers. He placed metal rivets 4t) at pocket comers. He didn't have the money to apply for a patent i'J) for his idea,so he sent Levi a letter. Perhaps Levi would be interested in paying for the paperwork so that the two men could apply for the patent together. Levi agreed and the second generation of jeans was bom. The term jeans was bom out of the name of an Italian city,Genoa,where denim could be bought.
Jeans didn't change the life of Levi greatly. He and Jacob Davis did earn good money from their successful riveted denim trousers,but Levi was already a wealthy man. Denim jeans did greatly alter the lives of the rest of US. Today more than a hundred years later,Levi' s jeans are still popular all over the world.
