green on the outside and,more often than not,hard with an unpleasant taste within.Then in1996,the Del Monte Gold pineapple produced in Hawaii first hit our shelves.The new type of pineapple looked more yellowy-gold than green.It was slightly softer on theoutside and had a lot of juice inside.But the most important thing about this new type of pineapplewas that it was twice as sweet as the hit-and-miss pineapples we had known.In no time,the DelMonte Gold took the market by storm,rapidly becoming the worlds best-selling pineapple variety,and delivering natural levels of sweetness in the mouth,up until then only found in tinnedpineapple.In nutrition(营养)it was all good news too.This nice-tasting pineapple contained four timesmore vitamin C(维生素 C)than the old green variety.Nutritionists said that it was not only full ofvitamins,but also good against some diseases.People were understandably eager to be able to buythis wonderful fruit.The new type of pineapple was selling fast,and the Del Monte Goldpineapple rapidly became a fixture in the shopping basket of the healthy eater.Seeing the growing market for its winning pineapple,Del Monte tried to keep the market toitself.But other fruit companies developed similar pineapples.Del Monte turned to law for help,but failed.Those companies argued successfully that Del Montes attempts to keep the goldenpineapple for itself were just a way to knock them out of the market.60.We learn from the text that the new type of pineapple is _.A.green outside and sweet insideB.good-looking outside and soft insideC.yellowy-gold outside and hard insideD.a little soft outside and sweet inside61.Why was the new type of pineapple selling well?A.It was rich in nutrition and tasted nice.B.It was less sweet and good for health.C.It was developed by

people use as a gift63.We learn from the last paragraph that Del Monte _.A.allowed other companies to develop pineapplesB.succeeded in keeping the pineapple for itselfC.tried hard to control the pineapple marketD.planned to help the other companiesCDos and Donts in Whale(鲸鲸)WatchingThe Department of Fisheries and Oceans has developed guidelines for whale watching inJohnstone Strait,where killer whales are found on a daily basis each summer.It is stronglyrecommended that vessel(船只)operators follow these guidelines for all kinds of whales.Approach whales from the side,not from the front or the back.Approach no closer than 100 metres,then stop the boat but keep the engine on.Keep noise levels down no horns,whistles or racing of engines.Start your boat only after the whales are more than 100 metres from your vessel.Leave the area slowly,gradually moving faster when you are more than 300 metres fromthe whales.Approach and leave slowly,avoiding sudden changes in speed or direction.Avoid disturbing groups of resting whales.Keep at low speeds and remain in the same direction if traveling side by side with whales.When whales are traveling close to shore,avoid crowding them near the shore or comingbetween the whales and the shore.Limit the time spent with any group of whales to less than 30 minutes at a time whenwithin 100 to 200 metres of whales.If there is more than one vessel at the same observation spot,be sure to avoid any boatposition that would result in surrounding the whales.Work together by communicating with other vessels,and make sure that all operators areaware of the whale watching guidelines.64.For whom is this text written?A.Tour guides.B.Whale watchers.C.Vessel operators.D.Government officials.65.When leaving the observation areas,the
