After that, she trained hard and took part in lots of competitions. In 1975, she was named as one of the Athletes of the 20th Century.

24、The blue whale is the largest animal on Earth. It can weigh up to 173,000 kg and grow as long as 30 meters. Adult female (雌性的) blue whales are larger than adult males. The blue whaled heart alone is the size of a small car!
The blue whale lives mostly in cold and temperate (温和的) waters. It prefers deeper ocean waters. Blue whales usually live alone or in pairs, although they may go in groups to find food. And paired adult blue whales are usually a male and a female. Often, the same two whales will be seen together for a long time. The large part of food for them is shrimps (小虾) and they can eat a lot of shrimps at a time. Blue whales have very deep voices. The sound a blue whale makes can travel thousands of miles in deep waters. So the whales may be able to communicate with each other across oceans.
However, blue whales face a serious problem. In 1931 alone, almost 30,000 blue whales were killed. By 1966 there had been so few blue whales that the international Whaling Commission (国际捕鲸委员会) called for the whale protection. In 2000 it was found that there were fewer than 10,000 left.
【1】According to the first paragraph, which of the following is NOT true?
A.We haven’t seen a larger animal than the blue whale on earth so far.
B.It is clear that blue whales are very heavy and large in size.
C.Adult female blue whales are smaller than adult males.
D.The blue whale’s heart is as big as a small car.
【2】Why do people think that blue whales may be able to communicate across oceans?
A.Because their sounds can travel a long distance.
B.Because they usually live alone or in pairs.
C.Because they live mostly in cold and temperate waters.
D.Because they have very big throats to make sounds.
【3】Which of the following aspects (方面) about blue whales does the passage NOT tell us?
A.Their size.
B.Their food.
C.Their best friend.
D.Their problem.
【4】What is the purpose (目的) of the last paragraph?
