21、When traveling abroad, it is wise to carry your money in traveler's checks because checks are protected against loss or theft. If your checks are lost or stolen, the issuing authority will refund(赔偿) your money.
Not only are they safe, they are also convenient. They are available in different currencies and they can be cashed at most banks throughout the world. Most shops, hotels and restaurants also accept them.
Traveler's checks are very easy to use. When you collect them, you sign each check once. The cashier enters the amount in your passport. When you cash, you sign each check again. The cashier will usually ask to see your passport again too.
To get traveler's checks you usually go to your bank. They can be paid in cash or in other ways. Large amounts, however, must be ordered in advance.
For the safety and convenience of traveler's checks, you are charged two commissions(佣金，酬劳): an insurance commission when you buy them and an encashment commission when you cash them.

23、 The best and most-commonly used sources for the pills we have are oily fish like salmon（畦）， mackerel and sardines. Many environmentalists fear that some species are being over fished for this purpose. We may have an endless voracity for fish oil, but we don't have an endless supply of fish.
Menhaden, which is described as “a big-headed, smelly, foot-long fish" , is in great danger. Although prized for dinner in the 18th century, the species has become the unknown victim of the fish oil business 9 which presents us with potential sea fish. Menhaden filter-feed almost entirely on algae （海藻）and is especially good at changing it into-3 fatty acids, which make them a good target for fish oil companies.
One particular company, Protein of Houston, has been fishing 90 percent of the country' s menhaden. It's become such a big problem that 13 of the 15 Atlantic states have banned the company * s boats from their waters. Yet the company is still allowed to fish in North Carolina and Virginia, as well as federal waters; the company * s efforts result in the removing of half a billion menhaden every year.
Aside from running out a public natural resource for a company，s private profit, the damage to the ecosystem is cause for alarm. The muddy brown color of the Long Island Sound is the direct result of lacking water nitration （过滤）一a job that was once done by menhaden.
Menhaden keep the ocean waters of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts clean. A menhaden filters four to six gallons of water of algae in a minute, which prevents underwater dead zones.
Measures should be taken to avoid the over fished situation. Plant seeds such as flax seed, chiaseeds, hemp seeds, and sesame seeds — and particularly their oils — are good vegetarian sources of omega-3 fatty acids, although the mix of specific acids is different from which one can get with fish.
【1】Why does menhaden become a good fish for companies to make pills?
A.It is good at forming-3 fatty acids.
B.It feeds mainly on the harmful algae.
C.It is well-known for its rich protein.
D.It is relatively easy for companies to catch.
【2】What does the underlined word "voracity" in paragraph 1 mean?
A.trouble B.shortage
C.resource D.appetite
【3】What does the author intend to suggest us in the last paragraph?
A.To grow more plants for their seeds to make oil.
B.To use some substitutes instead of more fish oil.
C.To call on the government to make laws in fishing.
D.To take part in more activities to protect the environment.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.The broken natural ecosystem. B.The process of making fish oil.
C.Bad effects of fish oil making. D.How to use natural resources.
24、 Ants have the almost unique ability among animals to switch between individual and collective(集体的) action, according to new research which uncovers the mystery behind their impressive teamwork.
The insects are able to transport objects such as food that are much larger than themselves by naturally understanding when to be part of the collective muscle and when to play an individual “scouting(侦察)” role for the group, researchers found.
Experiments using the breakfast cereal showed how groups of a dozen or more ants working together could transport much bigger items by pushing in the same direction. But more importantly, when the group moves off course or heads for trouble, the ant who first realizes the problem transforms into a highly individualistic leader.
This ant signals the need for a direction change by pulling at a different angle — and her colleagues instantly accept the decision and follow suit.
“The individual ant has the idea of how to pass a thing that blocks their way but lacks the muscle power to move the load. The group is there to promote the leader’s strength so that she can actually carry out her idea,” said Ofer Feinermann, the study’s lead author.
But the lead ant will only carry the baton for a short period, typically shouting to others for 10 to 20 seconds, by which point another ant has become best placed to make leadership decisions.
“As far as we can tell the scout is no different to the other ants, such as in creativity. No one designates(指派) her as the leader, and she designates herself because she has current knowledge about the correct direction,” he added.
Ants are among the very few creatures, besides humans, that can collectively carry loads far heavier than an individual member of their creatures.
The study by the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel was published in the journal Nature Communications.
【1】What does the new research mainly tell us?
A．Ants usually work together to look for food.
B．Ants usually turn to others for help when finding food.
C．Ants are good at delivering food larger than themselves.
D．Ants are able to work both individually and collectively.
【2】When moving the load, _________.
A．the scout usually works individually
B．ants work together towards the same direction
C．every ant wants to play a role of the leader
D．ants elect a leader through a discussion
【3】What does the underlined part “carry the baton” in Paragraph 6 mean?
A．Act as a leader.
B．Win the respect.
C．Work very hard.
D．Lose heart.
【4】According to this passage, the leader of an ant group must have _________.
A．a good sense of direction
B．the strongest body
C．the great creativity
D．a good reputation
