Question

Actress Hayden Panettiere recently got into trouble with Japanese fishermen as she tried to stop them from killing dolphins.
The 18-year-old star with some other surfers sailed out to reach the dolphins in order to stop them from being driven into a nearby pool and killed but the six surfers from Australia and the United States were stopped by a fishing boat before they could reach them. The fishermen blocked their way with a boathook (钩篙). It was an ugly unfriendly and life-threatening struggle before the surfers were forced to return to the beach. It is believed that the dolphins were later taken into a pool and killed.
Panettiere who is a brave surfer and loyal animal protector made up her mind to save the dolphins of Japan and said "It was really frightening. Some of us were hit by the boathook but in the end all we were really worried about the dolphins. It was so sad. We were so close to them and they were jumping out of the water to see us." Breaking down in tears she added "One little baby dolphin stuck his head out and looked at me and the thought that it’s no longer with us is really hard to take."
The surfers left the country to avoid arrest (逮捕) by the Japanese police. Panettiere is now back in Los Angeles.
More than 22 000 dolphins are killed by fishermen in Japan every year. Many Japanese believe dolphins should be treated like fish. They have been hunting dolphins for centuries and see any criticism (批评) of this as an attack on their culture.

分 析：
文章讲述了几个冲浪爱好者试图阻止日本渔民捕杀海豚的事情。来自美国和澳大利亚的冲浪爱好者不忍看到海豚被捕杀，他们想阻止日本渔民的行为，但却遭到了渔民的强行阻拦。小题1:根据第一段的“...as she tried to stop them from killing dolphins”可知，Hayden Panettiere是因为组织日本渔民捕杀海豚才惹上麻烦的。故选D。小题2:根据第三段“It was really frightening.”可知，Panettiere他们很害怕，有的被钩篙击中了；根据“It was so sad.”可知，他们因不能救海豚而感到遗憾，故选A。小题3:文章讲述了几个冲浪爱好者试图阻止日本渔民捕杀海豚的事情。他们不是在冲浪的时候遇到的日本渔民，而是去组织渔民的捕杀行为，排除A；文章只提到了几个冲浪爱好者，没有提到全世界都反对捕杀海豚，排除C；D项太宽泛，故选B。
