Tail Spin

Two dolphins race around in a big pool in the Ocean Park. The smaller dolphin Grace,

shown off a few of her tricks, turning around and waving hello to the crowd. The most amazing

thing about her, however, is that she’s even swimming at all. She doesn’t have a tail.

Grace lost her tail as a baby when she got caught up in a fish trap. When the dolphin

arrived at the Ocean Park in December 2005, she was fighting for her life. “Is she going to make

it?” Her trainer, Abbey Stone, feared the worst. Grace did make it --- but her tail didn’t. She

ended up losing her flukes and the lower part of her peduncle.

Over the past six years, she has learned to swim without her tail. Dolphins swim by

moving their flukes and peduncle up and down. Grace taught herself to move another way---like

a fish! She pushed herself forward through the water by moving her peduncles from side to side.

The movement put harmful pressure on Grace’s backbone. So a company offered to create

a man-made tail for her. The tail had to be strong enough to stay on Grace as she swam but soft

enough that it wouldn’t hurt her.

The first time Grace wore the artificial tail. She soon shook it off and let it sink in the

bottom of the pool. Now, she is still learning to use the tail. Some days she wears it for an hour

at a time, others not at all. “The tail isn’t necessary for her to feel comfortable,” says Stone, “but

it helps to keep that range of motion(动作) and build muscles.”

Now, the dolphin is about to get an even happier ending. This month, Grace will star in

Dolphin Tale, a film that focus on her rescue and recovery. Her progress has inspired more than

just a new movie. Many people travel from near and far to meet her. Seeing Grace swim with

her man-made tail gives people so much courage.

4. When Grace first arrived at the Ocean Park, her trainer worried about her______.

A. physical build B. potential ability

C. chance of survival D. adaptation to the surroundings.

5. A man-made tail is created for Grace to ______.

A. let her recover faster B. make her comfortable

C. adjust her way of swimming D. help her perform better tricks

6. The story of Grace inspires people to______.

A. stick to their dreams B. treat animals friendly

C. treasure what they have D. face difficulties bravely

7. Where does the text probably come from？

A. A pet advertisement B. A news story

C. A novel D. A travel guide

There is an old Chinese proverb that states “One Generation plants the trees; another gets

the shade,” and this is how it should be with mothers and daughters. The relationship between a

mother and daughter is sometimes confusing. If close, the relationship can be similar to

friendship. However, the mother and daughter relationship has unique characteristics that

distinguish it from a friendship. These characteristics include a hierarchy(等级) of responsibility

and unconditional love, which preclude mothers and daughters from being best friends.

Marina, 27 years old, says, “I love spending time with my mom, but I wouldn’t consider

her my best friend. Best friends don’t pay for your wedding. Best friends don’t remind you how

they carried you in their body and gave you life! Best friends don’t tell you how wise they are

because they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you.” This doesn’t mean that the

mother and daughter relationship can’t be very close and satisfying. While some adult

relationships are still troubled, many find them to be extremely rewarding. This generation of

mothers and adult daughters has a lot in common which increases the likelihood of shared

companionship. Mothers and daughters have always shared the common experience of being

homemakers, responsible for maintaining and passing on family values and traditions. Today

contemporary mothers and daughters also share the experience of the workforce and technology,

which may bring them even closer together.

Best friends may or may not continue to be best friends, but for better or worse, the mother

and daughter relationship is permanent, even if for some unfortunate reason they aren’t

speaking. The mother and child relationship is closer than any other. There is not an equal

relationship. Daughters should not feel responsible for their mother’s emotional well-being. It

isn’t that they don’t care deeply about their mothers. It’s just that they shouldn’t be burdened

with their mother’s well being.

The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is not replaceable by any other.
