A couple in their 60s has traveled 12，000 miles across 16 countries from Britain to China—riding their bikes the entire way. Grandparents Peter and Chris stepped on the long journey after deciding to “do something a bit different”. They traveled across cities， deserts， mountains and everything in between across Europe， the Middle East and the East Asia. The married couple of 37 years enjoyed themselves with delicious local food and spent most nights inside a tiny tent put up wherever they could find shelter.

Peter， 66， said the moment they finally had a look at the famous Great Wall after a year and a half of cycling 30 miles a day was “really exciting”. At the end of their journey， the special pair didn't fly homebut instead chose to book a cabin inside a 400m-long container ship. The final part was a three-week voyage from Singapore across the Indian Ocean and into the Mediterranean Sea before arriving at

Southampton.

“You never know what the day is going to bring. All you know is that you are going to get on your bike and cycle. Every day is an adventure and every day is new. Overall， the experience is absolutely unbelievable，” Peter said.

Peter and Chris initially set out to cycle from Britain in January 2017 but were forced home. They had cycled all the way to Hungary when Peter slipped on tiles and broke his leg. After several months of recovery， the couple set out again in Britain. They finally arrived in China in November 2018.

Both Peter and Chris agreed that the best part of the entire trip was coming across the kindness of strangers along the way， many of whom invited the couple for food and drink. Chris， 64， said， “It was a wonderful experience， particularly wonderful because of the amazing people we met along the way.”

Sue Hendrickson is a self-taught fossil hunter （化石搜尋者）. As a kid， Sue Hendrickson often walked with her head down.“People said， ‘Look up. Smile！'” she says.“Now， I realize I was born to look for things and just didn't know it.”

Sue Hendrickson does more than look—she finds valuable things： Shipwrecks （沉船） with treasure， ancient sunken cities， and in 1990， she found Sue， the world's largest， most complete Tyrannosaurus rex （霸王龍）.

“I limit the area where I'm going to look，” she says. No one knew the location of the sunken ship San Diego in the Philippines. For a year， Hendrickson and other researchers searched papers and sailors' diaries.“The descriptions of the ship's sailors led us to the wreck，” she says. The team also used a tool that can respond to metal . This tool found the San Diego . All the work paid off. The 400-year-old ship was complete， with valuable gold and silver coins.

To find the dinosaur she calls “the biggest animal that ever walked on Earth”， Hendrickson started with maps made to search for oil. What Hendrickson found was the largest and most complete T-rex found to date. The T-rex is 42 feet long with 200 bones！ Because it is so complete， scientists were able to infer that Sue walked at about 6 miles per hour and did not run faster than 15 miles an hour. Before Sue was

discovered， they thought T-rex was much faster. To learn more about T-rex Sue， go to the Field Museum in Chicago.

There's plenty left to be found， Hendrickson says， including answers to mysterious questions such as how T-rex lived.“I tell kids that they need to grow up and work them out because all of us old persons haven't yet！”

B. It let people know how T-rex lived.

C. It ran faster than any other T-rexes.

D. It was the biggest dinosaur.

31. What does Hendrickson advise kids to do？

When humans make friends， we often choose companions who share similar characteristics to us or enjoy participating in the same activities that we enjoy. Interestingly， it turns out that dolphins may not be so different， according to a study which found that the animals form strong social ties with those who have similar interests . In some ways， this may not be surprising， if we know dolphins live in groups characterized by complex social activities. However， the latest findings are yet another powerful example of the intelligence that these creatures possess.

For the study， an international team of scientists studied a unique group of bottlenose dolphins， who live in the World Heritage area of Shark Bay， Western Australia. They are particularly interesting because the females are known to use sea sponges （海綿） as foraging （覓食） tools， a behavior that hasn't been perceived anywhere else. The behavior known as “sponging”， helps the dolphins to find food in deeper waters and is socially learned， being passed down from mother to baby.

Previous studies have shown that females in this group who use sea sponges to find food often like to hang out with other females who do the same. However， studies of this behavior in males are lacking， leaving a gap （空白） in our knowledge. To try and address this gap， the researchers collected data on 124 male dolphins in Shark Bay over a 9-year period between 2007 and 2015. Among these dolphins， some had the sponging behavior， while others did not. After analyzing their data， the team came to the conclusion that those males who used sponges for foraging associated significantly more often with other “spongers”， no matter how related they were to their companions. Interestingly， male spongers spent significantly more time foraging and less time resting than non-spongers.

According to the lead author of the study， Manuela Bizzozzero， the findings cast new light on the social ties between male dolphins at Shark Bay.

32. What can we learn about dolphins according to Paragraph 1？

A. They are humans' good friends.???? B. They make friends like humans.

C. They can understand humans' emotions.? D. They confuse human lifestyles with theirs.

33. What does the underlined word “perceived” in Paragraph 2 probably mean？

A. Influenced.?????????? B. Prevented.

C. Observed.??????????? D. Accepted.

34. Why does the writer mention previous studies in Paragraph 3？

A. To explain the intention of the latest studies.

B. To present their achievements in dolphin research.

C. To stress that dolphins have the socially learned behavior.

D. To show how female dolphins use sea sponges to find food.

35. What is the finding of the studies on male bottlenose dolphins？

A. Few of them make use of sponges to find food.

B. A large quantity of them mainly feed on sponges.

C. Male spongers enjoy staying with other spongers.

D. Male spongers rest more often than non-spongers.

In China， traveling by train is a common way to visit new places and go back to one's hometown during holidays.36 It wasn't always that way， though.

37 Later， many railway companies started up and competed with each other to build new railway routes. Trains became a symbol of progress， with New York City's Grand Central Station becoming a major cultural landmark.38 For example， Johnny Cash wrote a song called Folsom Prison Blues.

But little by little， railways were replaced by highways as “car culture” took over the US. China would go on to use trains even more widely than the US.39 It allows people to travel fast with ease. This is especially obvious during Chunyun， when China's train stations are crowded with thousands of people who are trying to get home.

I had never traveled by train until I moved to China. My first trip by train was from Beijing to Tianjin by high-speed train. It was amazing how quickly I could get there—just half an hour. Since then， I've taken the train to lots of other cities—Shanghai， Chongqing and Shenzhen. It's always a good time.40 And for some reason， even instant noodles taste better on the train than they do anywhere else.

A. The US railway system started to grow in 1826.

B. Musicians even created music works about trains.

C. China's railway network connects the whole country.

D. But in the US， traveling by train is a very old tradition.

E. People on the train are usually friendly and happy to chat.

F. But there are many differences between Chinese and US railways.

G. Traveling on high-speed trains costs more than traveling on ordinary trains.
