Ocean researchers are saving endangered whales using hi-tech tools called SnotBots.
In 2018, a killer whale called Scarlet was very weak. The whale, who was nearly four, was starving because there wasn't enough salmon to eat. Experts did their best but couldn't save her.
Sadly, it isn't just Scarlet in trouble. All "southern resident killer whales", which live in the Salish Sea off the coast of Canada and the USA, are having a hard time living. "There are only 74 killer whales remaining (剩余;遗留) in this group, so every whale matters," Hendrik Nollens from Wildlife Health told us.
Researchers at Wildlife Health are using SnotBots to save these whales. "The special drones (无人机) fly above the whales and take videos and pictures, collect their breath samples (样本) for health tests, and take their body temperatures" says Nollens.
Pilots fly the drones carefully to move close to the whales and catch the breath drops, or the "blow", after they have come up to breathe. Analysing these breath samples helps the experts check whether the whales are healthy. The check-up also guides actions to protect the animals.
By learning about and protecting whales, researchers are helping these fantastic sea animals live and grow again. Their efforts could help the population grow by 1% every year. "Our dream is to see more baby whales, healthier groups of whales, supported by healthier oceans," says Nollens.
(1)、Why did the killer whale named Scarlet die?A、Because she was seriously ill. B、Because she was too old to live. C、Because she was hurt by sea animals. D、Because she didn't have enough food.(2)、What can SnotBots do to help save whales?①Take pictures and videos. ②Collect breath samples. ③Send food.
④Analyse samples. ⑤Take temperatures.
A、①②⑤ B、①③⑤ C、②③④ D、③④⑤(3)、Which "blow" has the same meaning as the underlined word "blow" in Paragraph 5?A、Losing his job was a big blow to the poor man. B、A strong wind blew the leaves off the tree last night. C、The boy blew out all the candles on his birthday cake. D、The dolphin's blow could be seen in the morning air.(4)、What is the passage mainly about?A、A killer whale named Scarlet died in the sea. B、Southern resident killer whales are in danger. C、Researchers use SnotBots to protect whales. D、Killer whales in the Salish Sea love eating salmon.六、完形填空(每小题1分,共15分)

14. 完形填空

I love the ocean. I live far away from the ocean. It makes the ocean just like a 1 for me and I try to visit at least once a year. I've been visiting the ocean for almost 20 years.
When I was young, I would 2 shells and rocks, and bring them back home. So I had tons of them in my room. 3 , as I visited the ocean more and more, I started picking up the 4 left by people instead of picking up ocean treasures.
I made such a 5 after I questioned myself about my old habit. It made me aware that a 6 you find in the ocean has a wonderful colour that makes you pick it up. But then, 7 it dries, you don't find it lovely anymore, so 8 do you pick it up in the first place? Anyway, I came to understand that natural things are 9 in their natural environment. If everybody picked a shell from the ocean and 10 rubbish (垃圾) out there, the beach would become something not so nice very shortly. A clean and lively beach is a gift all of us should 11 . To treat the ocean kindly is to treat humans kindly.
So I made a 12 that day - I would just "borrow" things from the ocean and bring them back after a while, since the 13 of shells does so much good to me. I would take photos to record them. I didn't 14 so many shells and rocks, so I just kept them to a minimum (最少量).
So if you've seen a lady picking up rubbish and 15 shells back into the ocean, from a box or a bag, don't be surprised! It was probably me.
