In Shark Bay, Australia, unrelated bttlense dlphins have exhibited a remarkable behavir— they have been bserved teaching each ther a nvel way t use a tl. This is a behavir that, until recently, scientists had nly witnessed in humans and ther great apes. Furthermre, this marks the first knwn instance f dlphins passing dwn such knwledge within the same generatin, rather than acrss generatins.
The dlphins engage in a practice knwn as shelling. They chase fish int abandned giant snail shells lying n the seabed. After that, they bring these shells t the surface and shake them with their nses, remving the water and capturing the fish that escape.
"The fact that shelling is scially transmitted amng dlphin peers rather than between mther and child sets an imprtant milestne," senir study authr Michael Krutzen said.
In 2007, Krutzen launched a study f Shark Bay's dlphins, identifying mre than a thusand individual dlphins ver 11 years. During this time, scientists bserved shelling 42 times amng 19 dlphins. Half f these events ccurred after a marine heatwave in 2011, which may have caused a die-ff amng giant sea snails, leading t mre shells n the seaflr.
Because f the length f their study, scientists had very detailed knwledge f the individual dlphins' family histries, ages, sexes and behavir, making it easier fr them t study the 19 dlphins that practiced shelling. Fr instance, they bserved that the dlphins that practised shelling hung ut with ther shellers, s it's likely that they cpied frm thse they spent time with, says study lead authr Snja Wild.
The team knew that envirnmental factrs- specifically, whether shelling dlphins did s simply because they lived in a shell-rich area-culd explain this peer-t-peer transmissin. A genetic characteristic amng a family grup was anther pssible reasn.
S the researchers cmbined their data n the dlphin sightings, as well as genetic and envirnmental data, int a cmputer mdel that prpsed varius ways shelling culd be transmitted between dlphins. The mdel that supprted hrizntal (横向的) transmissin was the strngest utcme, accrding t the study.
12. What can we knw abut bttlense dlphins frm the paragraph?
A . They learn t use tls frm humans. B . They get knwledge acrss generatins. C . They cpy behaviurs frm great apes. D . They have the ability t teach each ther.
13. Why des the authr mentin the die-ff amng giant sea snails in 2011?
A . T explain the natural cycle f sea snail ppulatins. B . T discuss the impact f climate change n marine life. C . T highlight the challenges faced by dlphins in finding fd. D . T prvide a pssible explanatin fr the increase in shelling behavir.
14. Accrding t the scientists, shelling dlphins ____.
A . usually hunt n their wn B . live arund areas rich in shells C . cnduct shelling abut fur times a year D . acquire shelling skills frm ther shellers
15. What's the main purpse f the cmputer mdel?
A . t find ut genetic factrs in shelling transmissin B . t further make sure hw shelling actually spreads C . t explain why shelling nly spreads between peers D . t lk fr new pssible ways fr dlphins t spread shelling

Recently, I cnducted a survey explring the bstacles preventing peple frm jurnaling (写日志). 16 Therefre, tday I intrduce t yu a practical tl-the MicrMOVEment Wheel. This tl aims t assist yu in vercming these barriers and help yu pick up yur jurnal. even at times when yu feel unmtivated.

S, in the case f jurnalling, that wuld represent a minimum f up t five minutes f jurnalling in ne sitting, n any given day.
Nw. imagine yu're new t jurnaling. By setting aside five minutes ut f yur day. yu culd write ne wrd in yur ntebk that sums up a feeling r an experience. 20 The idea f the MicrMOVEment is t create easy steps t get yur jurnal writing r writing prjects mving.

Nature, while beautiful, culd als be unpredictable and merciless. But mst imprtantly, we bear in mind that in the darkest times, there's always a light at the end f the tunnel, just like Mrs. Evans' cabin (小屋) light.
One bright summer day, my friend Peter and I decided t venture int the unexplred trails f the Great Smky Muntains. Blessed with rich bidiversity and fascinating landscapes, the natinal park seemed a perfect getaway. Little did we knw that ur casual hike wuld sn turn int an unexpected persnal incident, frever engraved in ur memries.
We set ff early in the mrning, equipped with ur backpacks and a map that was suppsed t guide us thrugh the winding trails. The sun was up, casting lng shadws n the frest flr as we set ff n ur jurney. We hiked, laughed, and marveled at the beauty f nature arund us.
As we walked thrugh the dense frests, taking in the natural wnders arund us. we culdn't help but feel a sense f adventure cursing thrugh ur veins. The trail was rugged (崎岖的) and uneven, but we persevered thrugh the challenging landscape.
Midway thrugh ur expeditin, we stumbled upn a breathtaking waterfall, its glistemng waters cascading dwn the rcks in a quiet and peaceful meldy. We sat dwn by the water's edge. taking a mment t get lst in the beauty f nature. The cl mist frm the waterfall envelped us. and we felt refreshed and energetic.
As the day wre n, we ventured deeper int the wilderness, eager t explre every crner f this natural paradise. We were s absrbed in the beauty f nature that just didn't ntice ur way and it seemed that we culd nt find the way back t the familiar part f the frest.
Panicking, we scrambled t find ur way back but the dense vegetatin and winding trails nly served t cnfuse us further. We tried t remember any pssible signs that might lead us back. N sner had we celebrated ur return t the clear trails than smething wrse happened.
