They might be making p
30、eople sick, too.The name given to this single-cell organism, or dinoflagellate, is Pfiesteria piscimorte- literally, “fish killer. “ It was discovered at North Carolina State University in 1988, but at the same time, few scientists believed in its existence, much less in its highly unusual predatory
31、 nature. But ongoing research has led to international acknowledgment of the phenomenon and, recently, research funding.Seemingly prompted by an unknown substance secreted by fish, the aggressive creature swims into action. It sends neurotoxins into the water and air, paralyzing a fishs nervous syst
32、em, and causing it to gasp for air at the surface. Eventually the fish suffocates. The killer dinoflagellate then attaches itself to the fish and begins sucking away at its flesh. This macabre scenario may help solve several sea mysteries, such as why fishermen report seeing “fish walks“ (fish tryin
33、g to leave the water) and pools of dead fish with holes eaten through them.Whether humans are affected by the dinoflagellates toxin remains to be seen. Researchers think its unlikely eating fresh fish are in danger, but anyone with frequent exposure to the creature could be in peril. Several researc
34、hers working with the algae have reported bouts of memory loss and disorientation.To understand the killer algae further, scientists must fully characterize their toxin and determine what stimulates them to attack. They also need to know if the algae are hurting fish populations, and whether polluta
35、nts make them more likely to attack.（分数：10.00）(1).The passage is primarily concerned with _.A. informing readers of different sea creaturesB. describing predatory microscopic organismsC. solving some long-lasting mysteries about the seaD. discussing the environment for various fishes（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D

41、ts have solved the mystery about the fish killer.B. More studies need to be made about the fish killer.C. It is proved that the algae are reducing fish populations.D. Humans have already been affected by the toxin.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.It is amazing how many people still say, “I never dream“, for it is n
42、ow decades since it was established that everyone has over a thousand dreams a year, however few of these nocturnal productions are remembered on waking. Even the most confined “non-dreamers“ will remember dreams if woken up systematically during the Rapid Eye Movement (REM) periods. These are perio
43、ds of light sleep during which the eyeballs move rapidly back and forth under the closed lids and the brain becomes highly activated, which happens three or four times every night of normal sleep.It is a very interesting question why some people remember dreams regularlyperhaps several a night on oc
44、casionwhile others remember hardly any at all under normal conditions. In considering this, it is important to bear in mind that the dream tends to be an elusive phenomenon for all of us. We normally never recall a dream unless we awaken directly from it, and even then it has a tendency to fade quic
45、kly into oblivion.Given this general elusiveness of dreams, the basic factor that seems to determine whether a person remembers them or not is the same as that which determines all other memory, namely degree of interest. Dream researchers have made a broad classification of people into “recallers“
46、those who remember at least one dream a monthand “non-recallers“, who remember fewer than this. Tests have shown that cool, analytical people with a very rational approach to their feelings tend to recall fewer dreams than those whose attitude to life is open and flexible. Engineers generally recall
47、 fewer dreams than artists. It is not surprising to discover that in western society, women normally recall more dreams than men, since women are traditionally allowed an instinctive, feeling approach to life.In modern urban-industrial culture, feeling and dreams tend to be treated as frivolities wh
48、ich must be firmly subordinated to the realities of life. We pay lip-service to the inner life of imagination as it expresses itself in the arts, but in practice relegate music, poetry, drama and painting to the level of spare-time activities, valued mainly for the extent to which they refresh us fo
49、r a return to work. We discourage our children from paying much attention to anything that might detract from the serious business of studying for exams or making a living in the “real“ world of industry and commerce.（分数：5.00）(1).Many people are unaware that they dream because _.A. their dreams fade very quicklyB. they do not recall their dreamsC. they sleep too heavilyD. they wake up frequently（分数：1.00）A
