　　The Greatest Mystery ofWhales (鲸鱼)
　　The whale is a mammal(哺乳动物)- warm-blooded, air-breathing,giving birth to its young alive, sucking them - and, like all mammals,originated on land. There are many signs of this. 1 front flippers(鳍状肢), usedfor steering and stability, are traces of feet.
　　Immense strength is builtinto the great body of the big whales, and in fact most of a whale's body is onegigantic(强有力的)muscle. The blue whale's pulling 2 has been estimated at 400horsepower. One specimen was reported to have 3 a whaling vessel for seven hoursat the 4 of eight knots.
　　An enraged whale will attack a ship. A famous 5 ofthis was the fate of whaler Essex, which was sunk 6 South America early in thelast century. More recently, steel ships have had their plates buckled in thesame way. Sperm whales were known to 7 the old-time whaleboats in their jaws andcrush them.
　　The greatest mystery of whales is their diving ability. Thesperm whale 8 the bottom for his favorite food, the octopus. 9 he is known to goas far down as 3,200 feet, where the pressure is 1,400 pounds, to the squareinch. Doing 10 he will remain submerged as long as one hour. Two feats areinvolved in this: storing up enough 11 (all whales are air-breathed)andwithstanding the great change in pressure. Just 12 he does it scientists havenot determined. It is believed that some of the oxygen is stored in a specialsystem of blood vessels, rather than just held in the lungs. And 13 that aspecial kind of oil in his head is some sort of compensating mechanism thatautomatically adjusts the internal pressure of his body. But 14 you can'tbring a live whale into the laboratory for study, no one just 15 how thesethings work.
