READING
I. Read the following text about dolphins and select the correct option.
Incredible Sea Creatures
Dolphins are very intelligent because they understand
and learn quickly. Scientists say dolphins and human’s
intelligence are similar in some ways, for example:
dolphins have a complex language that they use to hunt.
It is a combination of clicks and sounds. Many scientists
think that each dolphin has its own distinctive sound
that differentiates it from the others. Dolphins, like
men, are social animals. Dolphins raise their babies
together and live in groups called “pods” or “schools”. They also travel in groups.
Other interesting facts about dolphins are: they can stay underwater for more than
fifteen minutes without breathing; they can also locate objects using sounds like
radar. This is called “echolocation” and they use it to find and identify other sea
