While orcas are known for their well-designed joint attacks on unsuspecting oceanic animals, they have never
posed a threat to humans. However, since July 2020, the normally social animals have been intentionally attacking
sailboats off the coasts of Spain. The unusual hostility is puzzling scientists worldwide.
The strange behavior first surfaced on July 29, when Victoria Morris, a biology graduate, noticed nine orcas
circling the 46 foot boat she was crewing near the shores of the Strait of Gibraltar. She was initially cheerful to see
the friendly animals, with which she had numerous encounters while teaching sailing in New Zealand. However,
that changed when the orcas started striking the boat repeatedly for almost an hour. “They almost turned the boat
over and the deafening noise was terrifying,” she said.
The continuous attacks broke the boat's automatic rudder, leaving the boat disabled. Spanish biologist Rocio
Espada says, “It is crazy. I've seen these whales grow from babies. I know their life stories. I've never seen or heard
of attacks.”
Since then, over 30 more similar incidents have been reported. Some researchers believe the orcas' unusual
behavior could be a result of the overfishing of tuna—orcas' primary food source—which has left the area's orcas
starving and unable to feed their babies. “I saw orcas look at boats carrying fish. The intelligent animals may know
humans are somehow related to food shortages,” says Ken Balcomb, an American scientist.
However, Alfredo Lopez a Spanish biology professor, thinks the attacks were preventative measures the orcas
adopted to protect themselves against boat injuries. The researcher came to this conclusion after looking at the
footage of a few incidents filmed on the scene and noticing that two of the young orcas involved had serious
injuries. The scientist wasn't sure if the orcas were hurt during or before the recent boat encounters. Lopez said,
“Our interpretation is that they don't have the slightest intention of attacking people.” Hopefully, the experts will
find a way to restore the harmony between the animals and humans soon.
5. What does the underlined word “hostility” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Unfriendliness. B. Defence. C. Cooperation. D. Impatience.
6. What do we know about Victoria Morris?
A. Her major led her to anticipate orcas' intense attacks.
B. She rarely spotted orcas when working as a sailing coach.
C. Her joy gave way to fear after the orcas began attacking the boat.
D. She was doing research on the shore when she caught sight of nine orcas.
7. What did Rocio Espada think of the orcas' behavior of attacking humans?
A. Predictable. B. Abnormal. C. Unavoidable. D. Natural.
8. Which of the following may Alfredo Lopez agree with?
A. Orcas frequently get hurt by boats. B. Orcas enjoy playing tricks on humans.
C. Orcas are punishing humans for overfishing. D. Orcas attack boats to safeguard against dangers.
Callaghan, father of a teenage girl — Emma, couldn’t understand why he had developed a disease which
normally affects men twice his age.
“I was by myself,” Callaghan recalled. “I thought it was a kidney stone (肾结石). I was in the doctor’s office
for about 45 minutes that day. I don’t remember anything more than one minute of it.” He believed anyone who had
his condition would live only 12 months. And he would take tablets every day, possibly for the rest of his life.
Callaghan began finding hope in a small act of love for Emma: handwriting notes of love on a napkin and
placing it in her lunch box; nothing unusual or life-changing, just some words of encouragement to Emma to think
of during the day. His numbered days meant numbered napkins. “The reason why I started writing notes to her is
that I want to matter in her life,” Callaghan said. “I see so many working parents today who give up a lot of their
parenting. I want Emma to be able to look at me at whatever age she is and say ‘My dad loves me. I need his
advice, I need his love and I trust that my dad’s going to be there.’”
But what started out as a father’s way of showing his daughter his love quickly grew. His idea of sharing his
inspirational napkin messages with friends and family on Facebook got a generous response from the media. His
new book Napkin Notes shares each message he’s ever sent to his daughter as well as more about his brave battle
against cancer and life lessons he hopes Emma and maybe even grown readers can learn.
Now Callaghan is still fighting for his life. “The act of taking a napkin, holding my pen and thinking of
something to write down inspires me just as much as I hope it inspires my daughter,” Callaghan said.
9. What doubt did Callaghan have in Para. 1?
A. Why he suffered the disease twice.
