听力原文： Whale Falls Good morning, everyone! Today we are going to talk about a kind of marine mammal. Their calls can be haunting. Their size can take your breath away. And their worlds are dark and quiet. Yes, we are going to talk about whales, to be exact, something about the death of whales. There are many different species of the huge, warm-blooded, air-breathing mammals that live in the a. There is the blue whale and the killer whale, the humpback and the orca, just to name a few. According to veral science websites, whales live a long time. There are many different species of whales and each has a different lifespan. The average lifespan, however, is about 50 years. In the wild whales live for a long time. Bowhead whales spend their lives in the cold Arctic waters. They may be the world’s oldest mammals, living possibly more than 200 years! As they lived, the giants of the a die big. Before gas develop in the body, or carcass, of a dead whale it sinks to the ocean floor. This is called a “whale fall” and it supplies room and board, in other words, food and shelter, to thousands of ocean creatures for many decades. Scientists have only recently discovered just how many species live in a whale fall. This is mostly becau of the difficulty in finding whale falls in
the ocean. It is like trying to find a needle in a haystack, as we like to say. The smell of the dead whale brings the first stage of feeders — the traveling, or mobile scavengers. A wide variety of fish and sharks come from miles and miles to scavenge the dead whale’s soft flesh or tissue. This pha can last as short as veral months to as long as two years. As you can imagine, the first stage scavengers are messy eaters. Their feeding frenzies leave a thick layer of pieces of the whale, what scientists call biomaterial, on the a floor. This is when the dinner bell rings for the cond stage scavengers. During the cond stage of decomposition strange creatures appear. Shrimp-like creatures, crustaceans such as crabs and mollusks eat the small pieces of whale tissue that has dropped to the ocean floor. Hairy worms are also part of this stage. They feed on the whalebones making the whale carcass look like a carpet - a moving, living carpet. This pha can last up to two years. The third and final stage is the longest. It can last for decades. The flesh of the whale has long been eaten. But even the bones support life. As the whale bones decay, they produce sulfide, a type of gas. This gas supports a rich variety of life. Worms, musls and veral types of clams live off the gas that the whaleb
ones give off. Rearchers found more than 30, 000 animals totaling more than 200 species on one, single whale skeleton. Scientists who have studied the life of a whale fall found that the community of life and rare species of this final stage is larger than any known community on the deep afloor. Ok, having talked so much about the stages of a whale fall, I hope that you can have a complete picture of what a whale fall is and understand that whales never die on the ocean floor.
