A fin whale bdy that was washed ashre at San Dieg’s Pacific Beach was discvered t have many bite marks frm killer whales, which culd have cntributed t its death, accrding t the Natinal Oceanic and Atmspheric Administratin (NOAA). At first, NOAA researchers deemed the marks might be frm sharks, but further analysis (分析) by experts shwed that these were actually rake (耙子) marks, an unusual feature f killer whales, as stated by NOAA spkespersn Michael Milstein.
While it is pssible that killer whales played a rle in the fin whale’s death, NOAA has nt cnfirmed that they were the definitive cause. Milstein nted that there are dcumented instances where killer whales have chased fin whales, causing them t beach themselves in attempts t escape. This suggests that killer whales culd have influenced the whale’s fate (命运), but there is n certainty that they were the direct cause f death.
Additinally, NOAA reprted sightings f a grup f abut a dzen killer whales alng the Suthern Califrnia cast, including San Dieg. Baters in the area filmed ftage f a grup f killer whales actively chasing and likely feeding n dlphins near Trrey Pines. This indicates that killer whales are currently active in the regin and may be invlved in varius predatry (捕食性的) behavirs.
The fin whale’s bdy was discvered n December 10. Lifeguards spent the entire day trying t drag the whale back ut t sea, but despite their effrts, the bdy returned t shre at least nce. The whale was bserved bleeding frm its side, and attempts t pull it away using a small bat cnnected t its tail were unsuccessful. Fin whales, which are the secnd-largest whale species n Earth after blue whales, are cnsidered endangered and relatively few in number. These whales can weigh up t 100,000 punds. NOAA highly values public reprts regarding stranded (搁浅的) r injured sea animals. NOAA extremely appreciates such reprts and encurages the public t prvide infrmatin n hw t reprt these incidents. NOAA suppses that it is time fr all t wrk tgether.
28. What des the underlined wrd “deemed” in paragraph 1 prbably mean?
A. Cmplained.B. Persuaded.C. Believed.D. Advcated.
29. What culd killer whales d t cause the pssible death f the fin whale?
A. Drag it t the shre. B. Hit it unexpectedly.
C. Attack it in a grup. D. Chase it until it beached itself.
30. What can we knw abut killer whales frm paragraph 3?
A. Their presence is causing cncern fr lcals.
B. They are a new threat t the lcal ecsystem.
C. They are hardly engaging in predatry behavirs.
D. They are being bserved frequently near Trrey Pines.
31. What is NOAA’s attitude twards public reprts?
A. Supprtive.B. Dubtful.C. Unclear.D. Wrried.

Lw levels f vitamin (维生素) D culd lead t a slwer recvery prcess in children with brken bnes, accrding t research t be presented at a cnference this weekend.
“Children need t be given well-balanced diets that include vitamin D t maintain children’s verall health and ensure efficient recvery when injuries ccur,” said the study’s senir authr, Dr. Jessica McQuerry f the University f Flrida.
McQuerry’s team examined data abut 166 patients, frm babies t 17-year-lds, wh had brken a bne between 2015 and 2022. They fund that in 61.4 percent f cases, the children had lw levels f vitamin D and these children were likely t take significantly lnger t recver.
Prfessr Scarlett McNally, the deputy directr f Lndn’s Center fr Periperative Care, said, “Vitamin D helps in many bdy functins, including repair f bnes and tissues. It is a vitamin that helps the bdy manage calcium which keeps yur bnes strng and is needed fr muscles t cntract. Vitamin D als has a rle in immune (免疫) functin, helping yur bdy deal with infectin and cancer. It als has a rle in cell divisin—essential fr tissue repair.”
The study’s authrs said that previus studies had fcused n hw vitamin D can help prevent fractures (骨折), but this new research is making up fr the fact that vitamin D fr children’s fractures had been largely unexplred up t this pint. They recmmended testing yur child fr vitamin D levels if a brken bne is taking a lng time t recver.
Vitamin D can be fund in a variety f fds. Dairy prducts, such as milk and cheese, are particularly high in the nutrient, but it is als fund in fish, eggs and sme vegetables.
Sunlight expsure can help the bdy absrb vitamin D. “Getting utside and enjying the fresh air can d wnders fr yur recvery while als upping vitamin D absrptin,” McQuerry said.

C. Check vitamin D levels f their kids. D. Refuse dairy prducts in the supermarket.

One Friday in January, I felt a wave f anxiety wash ver me as I nticed my students’ disinterest in reading. During silent reading time, I ften saw them yawning (打哈欠) r lking blankly (茫然地) at their bks. Their lack f enthusiasm was bvius, and it trubled me deeply. I knew the pwer f a gd bk and the wrlds it culd pen, and I was determined t make a change. Therefre, I decided t take a brave step t cultivate (培养) a lve fr bks in my classrm.
As I thught f pssible slutins, I suddenly remembered my lcal cmmunity library, a place that had always drawn many neighbrs t read and cnnect. The library was always filled with peple f all ages lst in their reading, discussing bks, and participating in cmmunity events. This memry inspired an idea. If a cmmunity library culd create such a welcming atmsphere, why culdn’t I create a similar space in my classrm?
That very weekend, I set t wrk. I carefully selected my favrite bks frm my persnal cllectin, ranging frm thrilling adventures t heartwarming tales, and even a few classic nvels. I arranged the bks neatly n a shelf in a crner f the classrm, placing a sft carpet t create a welcming reading area, aiming t draw my students int the wrld f bks.
On Mnday mrning, as my students walked int the classrm, they nticed the new additin. “What’s this, Mr. Jhnsn?” asked Emily, her eyes widening with curisity. “This, my dear students, is ur very wn class library crner,” I annunced with a smile. “Yu can brrw any bk yu like, at any time. There’s n need fr frmal check-uts. Just take a bk, enjy it, and bring it back when yu’re dne.”
Dubtful wrds filled the rm, but I culd see a little light f interest. “Really? N rules?” questined Mark, a student. “Well, there is ne rule,” I replied. “Treat bks with respect and share them with yur classmates.”
