Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Dolphins are regarded as the friendliest creatures in the sea and stories of them helping drowning sailors have been common since Roman times. The more we learn about dolphins, the more we realize that their society is more complex than people previously imagined. They look after other dolphins when they are ill, care for pregnant mothers and protect the weakest in the community, as we do.
Some scientists have suggested that dolphins have a language but it is much more probable that they communicate with each other without needing words. Could any of these mammals be more intelligent than man? Certainly the most common argument in favor of mans superiority over them that we can kill them more easily than they can kill us is the least satisfactory. On the contrary, the more we discover about these remarkable creatures, the less we appear superior when we destroy them.
Question 28. It is clear from the passage that dolphins______.
A. dont want to be with us as much as we want to be with them B. are proven to be less intelligent than once thought

Question 29. The fact that the writer of the passage thinks that we can kill dolphins more easily than they can kill us______.
A. means that they are better adapted to their environment than we are
B. shows that dolphins have a very sophisticated form of communication
C. proves that dolphins are not the most intelligent species at sea
D. does not mean that we are superior to them

A. dolphins are quite abundant in some areas of the world
B. communication is the most fascinating aspect of the dolphins
C. dolphins have skills that no other living creatures have such as the ability to think
