Pierre is a 25-year-old penguin at the California Academy of Sciences. Due to his old age, he was going bald, which made him feel too cold to swim in the pool. Therefore, biologists at the academy had a wetsuit created for this penguin to help him get back in the swimming pool.
Unlike marine mammals, which have a layer of blubber to keep them warm, penguins depend on their waterproof feathers. Without them, Pierre was unwilling to jump into the swimming pool and ended up trembling on the side of the pool while his 19 peers played in the water.
"He was cold; he would shake," said Pam Schaller, a senior biologist. Schaller first tried a heat lamp to keep Pierre warm. Then she got another idea: if wetsuits keep humans warm in the cold Pacific, why not make one for Pierre?
Schaller designed the suit, which covered Pierre’s body and had small openings for his flippers.
"I would walk behind him and look at where there were any gaps, and cut and refit and cut and refit until it looked like it was extremely suitable," she said.
One concern was that the other penguins would reject Pierre in his new suit, but in fact, they accepted his new look. He swam freely and got along with others well, although he was the only penguin with a black stomach.
Schaller couldn’t say for sure whether the wetsuit allowed Pierre to recover his fine feathers, but "certainly we were able to keep him comfortable during a period of time that would have been very difficult for him to stay comfortable".
Pierre will take off his suit after his new feathers grow back.
Pierre felt too cold to swim in the pool because of _____.
A. not having a layer of blubber B. having few feathers due to old age
C. having no wetsuit D. others penguins rejecting him
The idea of making a wetsuit for Pierre came from _____.
A. total invention B. the use of wetsuit on humans
C. the use of heat lamp D. waterproof feathers
Schaller followed Pierre in order to see _____.
A. whether other penguins would reject him
B. if anywhere of wetsuit needed to be cut and refit
C. if the wetsuit kept warm
D. whether the wetsuit would keep the feathers from recovering
What does the underlined word in the second paragraph mean?
A. feeling scared B. staying alone C. shaking with cold D. keeping warm
The best title of the passage is _____.
A. Wetsuit for An Old Penguin B. Old Penguin Getting Bald
C. Unwilling to Swim D. Strange Look of Pierre

In this century the traditional American family is constantly faced with the threat of breakdown. Some sociologists suggest that one little – noticed cause may be the introduction of the TV dinner.
Before the appearance of television seats, the American dinner was a big event for the family. In many homes dinner time may be the only time when everyone got together. A typical dinner was usually in three stages. In the preparation stage, the children and Father frequently helped with setting while Mother put the last touches on the roast. In the eating stage, family members shared the day’s experiences and more than food was consumed. In this stage families got to know one another and made joint decisions around the dinner table, and thus the family solidarity(團(tuán)結(jié)) was strengthened. In the cleaning – up stage, children or Father again gave their hands, so that their significance to the home community was clear. Unfortunately, all of these have been erased by a product—the television set.
By the beginning of the 1980s, the typical American family dinner was just twenty minutes long. The speed – up of this once – leisurely experiences is clearly connected to the overall pace of modern life and maybe a model of the modern life is the TV dinners—meals designed to be consumed between the opening and closing credits of a half – hour program. The once family affair has now become nothing more than the use of a fork and knife.
According to the passage, the American family is now threatened by .
A. poverty B. having few children C. poor living conditions D. separation
In the past, Americans tended to .
A. spend more time eating their food at dinner table
B. eat more food than they have today
C. spend more time talking about their day’s experience at dinner table
D. talk so much that they forgot to eat
The shortening of the dinner time in America is related to .
A. the TV programs B. the pace of modern life
C. the wide use of household appliances D. the popularity of fast food
The best title for this passage might be .
A. Talk At Dinner Table B. TV Dinner
C. Pace Of Modern Life D. Problems Caused By TV
