B All Ric O Barry wants is to stop the dolphin-killing, so he is headed to this seaside Japanese town, Taiji. The American activist, who is the star of a new award-winning documentary that portrays the d
22、olphin-killing here, got an unwelcome reception when he showed up here this week for the start of the annual hunt. His movie, The Cove (海豚湾 ), directed by National Geographic photographer Louie Psihoyos, was released in the United States a month ago but has not yet to come out in Japan. Scenes in th
23、e film, some of which were shot secretly, show fishermen banging on metal poles stuck in the water to create a wall of sound that scares the dolphins which have supersensitive sonar (声纳系统) and sends them fleeing into a cove. There, the fishermen sometimes pick a few to be sold for aquarium shows, fo
24、r as much as $150, 000. They kill the others, spearing the animals repeatedly until the water turns red.

30、derlined word “defensive” probably mean? A. Feeling guilty for killing dolphins. B. Making the determination to change. C. Attacking those against dolphin-killing. D.

37、 credit cards, in that you are liable for bills up to 50. If your cash card is stolen: Legally, you can be made to pay back any sums a thief withdraws using your card, but only up to the time you report the loss and only up to 50, unless the bank can prove serious carelessness, such as writing your

43、 was two years after her fathers death and a short time after her sweetheartthe one we believed would marry herhad deserted her. After her fathers death she went out very little; after her sweetheart went away, people hardly saw her at all. A few of the ladies had the temerity to call, but were not
44、received, and the only sign of life about the place was the Negro mana young man thengoing in and out with a market basket. “Just as if a manany mancould keep a kitchen properly,” the ladies said; so they were not surprised when the smell developed. It was another link between the gross, teeming wor
45、ld and the high and mighty Griersons. A neighbor, a woman, complained to the mayor, Judge Stevens, eighty years old. “But what will you have me do about it, madam?” he said. “Why, send her word to stop it,” the woman said. “Isnt there a law?” “Im sure that wont be necessary,” Judge Stevens said. “It
46、s probably just a snake or a rat that nigger of hers killed in the yard.

Id be the last one in the world to bother Miss Emily, but
47、 weve got to do something.” That night the Board of Aldermen metthree graybeards and one younger man, a member of the rising generation. “Its simple enough,” he said. “Send her word to have her place cleaned up. Give her a certain time to do it in, and if she dont.” “Dammit, sir,” Judge Stevens said

They broke open the cellar door and sprinkled lime there, and in all the outbuildings. As they recrossed the lawn, a window that h
