However, these beasts of the sea do display a vast range of highly ____ behaviors that appear to be driving their genetic development. The word “culture” comes from the Latin “colere,” which ____ means “to cultivate.” In other words, it refers to anything that is ____ or learnt, rather than instinctive or natural.

Like humans, killer whales have colonized a range of different ____ across the globe, occupying every ocean basin on the planet, with an empire that ____ from pole to pole. As such, different populations of killer whales have had to learn different hunting techniques in order to gain the upper hand over their local prey(猎物). This, in turn, has a major effect on their diet, leading scientists to ____ that the ability to learn population-specific hunting methods could be driving the animals’ genetic development.

Questions26to35 are based on the following passage.

It’s hot so you grab a bottle of water from a local vendor. It’s the safe thing to do, right? The bottle is , and the label says “pure water”. But maybe what’s inside is not so . Would you still be drinking it if you knew that more than 90 percent of all bottled water sold around the world microplastics?

About a million bottles are bought every minute, not only by thirsty tourists but also by many of the 2.1 billion worldwide who live with unsafe drinking water. Confronted with this , several bottled-water manufacturers including Nestle and Coca-Cola undertook their own studies using the same methodology. These studies showed that their water did contain microplastics, but far less than the Orb study suggested. Regardless, the World Health Organisation has launched a review into the health risks of drinking water from plastic bottles.
