• 7．There are 54 different species of seahorses which are named after their horse-like shape.Due to a shortage of evidence，little information is known about the reproductive rates，population and preserving state of these animals.However，judging from the ever-changing climate，there is a higher possibility that their population has reduced because of the smaller habitats.Millions of seahorses are killed yearly for the traditional medicine trade.Another big threat is that many seahorses are caught together with the starfish which are dried and sold to tourists as souvenirs（紀念品）.
     Seahorses have an appearance of horse-like heads and necks.They also show the unique skill of swimming upright and use their fins to control themselves.Unlike most other fishes，a seahorse has a bent tail like a fishing hook.So they are poor swimmers and one of the slowest swimming fish in the world.They often circle their tails around something to rest.
     Seahorses are mainly found in sheltered areas such as seagrass beds and river-mouths to ocean.Males stay within an 11 square feet of habitat while females live over large areas，hundred times this size.
     During mating，the male seahorse uses its central，front-facing bag on the side of the tail to hold over 1，500 eggs for a period of 9 to 45 days.Once the young seahorses mature（成熟），they are let out into the water to live for themselves.Seahorses do not take care of the young ones after birth.Therefore，a variety of animals and strong waves can kill babies.
     The seahorses use excellent cheating skills and patience as tools to kill little animals such as some shrimps，small fish and other creatures.During feeding，they produce a special click.Similar sounds can also be heard during social activities.
  
  （1）What might cause the drop of the seahorse population？

  
  A．Low reproductive rate.

• 30．Grandma made a sweater for Dad as his birthday gift.It was PURPLE.Not just any purple.Shine-in-the-dark purple!Dad loved it.But I found it embarrassing.
      He wore the sweater all the time：when he walked the dog，when he shopped for groceries，when he and Mom went on a date，and—worst of all—when he came to events at my school.
      "Do you always have to wear that sweater？" I asked as we drove back from my school's art show.He laughed. "It's my favorite sweater，Jake!" "But it's so ...purple!" I said.
      I was glad when warm spring days arrived and he stopped wearing it.But once the weather cooled again，that purple sweater came out of hiding.I advised Dad to try other sweaters because the purple sweater looks like it's from outer space. "That is half the reason I love it!" he said，smiling.
      One day we visited Uncle Bill's farm.When picking apples，Dad tore his sleeve （袖子） on a tree.
      "Well，I guess you can't wear the sweater anymore." I said.
      "It's still a great sweater!I'll just wear it around the house，" Dad said.And he did.Every night.Weekends too.The hole got bigger and bigger.The sleeve hung by threads （毛線）.
      One night，at dinner，the threads reached his plate of noodles.He turned around the noodles and threads onto his fork and opened his mouth. "Look out，Dad!" I shouted. "You're about to eat your sweater." Dad laughed and put his fork down. "It is impossible to save this sweater now，" he said and sighed.
      After dinner，Dad was about to throw the sweater away.But he just stood there，looking sad.It made me sad too.
