Eye Opener Volunteer
Description
For about 30 years, the Museum of Science Eye Opener Program has been working with the Boston Public
Schools to bring the exciting world of science to second grade students from across the city. Each year, about 3, 000
students from over 45 Boston schools visit the museum to explore, ask questions and find answers. Since 1986,
funds from the Germeshausen Family Foundation have supported the Eye Opener Program in providing a guided
museum experience for second graders.
With the help of a large corps of volunteers, the program introduces these students to the museum and gives
them a chance to engage in science. Eye Opener volunteers encourage exploration and the excitement of discovery
as they share the museum with the children. They achieve these goals through conversation, hands-on experiments,
exploration of exhibits, and Practicing scientific thinking skills with program participants.
Responsibilities
Each Tuesday morning, the students are grouped into sets of 4 to 6 with a pair of volunteers who give them a
tour of the museum. Tours last about two hours and are tailored to the interests of the students.
Learn the lay-out of the museum to share and explore with second graders the exhibits which May be
interesting to them.
Encourage children to observe, compare, describe, ask questions and share ideas.
Know museum emergence and safety procedures.
Work in close collaboration with a diverse group of volunteers.

In the animal kingdom, killer whales (虎鲸) are social stars: they travel in varied family groups, care for
grandchildren, and even imitate human speech. Now, scientists are adding one more behavior to the list: forming
fast friendships. A new study shows killer whales can rival animals such as chimpanzees and macaques (a kind of
monkey), and even humans when it comes to the kind of “social touch” that indicates strong bonds.
Some ocean animals maintain social structures — including male dolphins that learn the “names” of their
close allies (盟友). But there is little data about wild killer whales. That’s where drone (无人机) technology came
in. Michael Weiss, a behavioral ecologist, teamed up with his colleagues to launch drones, flying them 30 to 120
meters above a group of killer whales. That was high enough not to trouble the whales, marking the first time
drones have been used to study friendly physical contact in whales.
The researchers recorded over 800 instances of physical contact between individuals. Those included hugs,
back-to-back and nose-to-nose touches between pairs of whales. Other whales playfully threw young whales into
the air, letting them fall into the water. Besides, the drone images revealed clear preferences among individuals,
usually for one “best friend” of the same sex and age. Take J49 and J51 — two distantly related young males aged
9 and 6 — for instance. “Every time you see a group of whales, those two are right there interacting with each
other,” Weiss says.
The young led most of these interactions, rather than the older females or males. Older males in particular
were less important. “The young individuals really seem to be the glue holding the groups together,” Weiss says. As
individuals age, this gradual loss of “centrality” is known in many social mammals, including humans. That finding
is “especially appealing” to Stacey Tecot, who wasn’t involved in the study. “Scientists have long observed this
social aging trend in animals, but there are still many unanswered questions,” she says. That’s certainly on the
researchers’ radar. “We’re already gathering new data, with more advanced equipment,” says Weiss.
4. What does the underlined word “rival” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Benefit from. B. Be equal to. C. Depend on. D. Be fond of.
5. What is new about Weiss’ research?
A. The research method. B. The variety of species.
C. The size of the research team. D. The time spent on the research.
6. What did Weiss find about J49 and J51?
A. They have a stable friendship. B. Their interactions are more complicated.
C. Their communicating ways change frequently. D. They prefer playing with young female whales.
