Their learning and problem-solvi
22、ng skills, together with their curiosity and often eager interactions with humans, have led some scientists to believe that whales possess a high level of intelligence.The large brains of whales also suggest a high intelligence. The sperm whales (抹香鲸) brain is considerably larger than an elephant s
23、brain and six times the size of a human brain. However, relative to the rest of the body, a sperm whales brain is only about 0.02 percent of its body weight, while a human brain is about 2 percent. These animals tend to rely on hearing more than vision, which explains why the visual centers of their
24、 brains are smaller proportionally than those in humans. Another feature is the degree of folding of the upper surface of the brain. This folding increases the surface area and has been observed in more intelligent animals. Whale brains generally show as much or more folding area as is seen in human
25、s.Complex behavior may reveal more about whale intelligence than brain size. Perhaps the most interesting indications of whale intelligence came with the discovery in the 1970s of whale singing. Singing is most common on the winter mating grounds, for example in the Caribbean and Hawaii.There is no
26、solid evidence that the songs encode language in an intellectual sense. The whale songs may be simply longer versions of the mating songs also noted in birds and amphibians(两栖动物).（分数：5.00）(1).The best title for this passage would be _. A.

31、 numbered 41 to 45. /IPlacing a satellite into orbit requires a tremendous amount of energy, which is achieved from multistage rockets burning chemical fuels.The first stage of a multistage rocket consists of rocket engines that provide a huge amount of force. The first stage lifts the entire launch
32、 vehiclewith its load of fuel, the rocket body, and the satelliteoff the launch pad (发射台) and into the first part of the flight. After its engines use all their fuel, the first stage portion of the rocket separates from the rest of the launch vehicle and falls to the earth.The second stage then igni
33、tes, providing the energy necessary to lift the satellite into orbit. It, too, then separates from the satellite and any remaining rocket stages.The rest of the launch depends on the satellites mission. And a third rocket stage provides the energy to lift the satellite to its final orbital altitude.
34、 After the satellite has reached the final altitude, another rocket engine fires and gives the satellite a circular orbit. All rocket-engine burns occur at a precise moment and last for a precise amount of time so that the satellite achieves its proper position in space.In 1990 the United States beg
35、an launching some satellites from aircraft flying at high altitudes. This method still requires a rocket-powered launch vehicle, but because the vehicle does not have to overcome friction with the thick atmosphere found at low altitudes, much less fuel is needed. However, the size of the rocket is l
36、imited by the size and strength of the aircraft, so only smaller satellites can be launched this way.（分数：5.00）(1).What is the main idea about the passage? A. Placing a satellite into orbit. B. Multistage rockets. C. Launching some satellites from aircraft. D. Rocket launching.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).Ac

The entire launch vehicle includes its load of fuel, the rocket body, and the satellite.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).In the sentence “The second stage then ignites, providing th
39、e energy necessary to lift the satellite into orbit.“, “ignites“ means_.
