C【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。行为生态学家Connie Allen认为大象凭借惊人的记忆力进行远距离导航,但也 有人提出,大象在进行远距离活动时嗅觉尤为重要。为了验证这一观点,Connie Allen和她的同事们开展了 研究,证明确实如此。【详解】1 .词义猜测题。根据下文 “Allen and her colleagues checked that idea by testing African elephants9 ability to identify a very special smell: the smell of pee (尿). You see, an elephant pees a lot 一 some 12 to 15 gallons a day 一 and that pee can contain a series of chemical signals.(艾伦和她的同事通过测试非洲象识别一种非常特殊的 气味的能力来验证这一想法:尿的气味。你看,大象尿得很多一一大约每天12到15加仑一一这些尿可以包 含一系列化学信号。)”以及这个实验过程可知,Connie Allen和同事们通过测试大象对路边大象尿液的感 知能力来进行研究,最终发现,大象可以利用尿液的气味进行远距离活动,由此可知,嗅觉对大象的远距 离活动尤为重要。画线词olfaction的含义应为“嗅觉”。故选B。2 .推理判断题。根据第三段的"They waited for elephants to pee and, within 20 minutes, went and collected these fresh pee samples.Then they set up cameras on seven paths which the elephants usually walked along.(他们等大象 尿尿,20分钟后去收集这些新鲜的尿样本。然后,他们在大象通常会走的七条道路上设置了摄像机。”'和 第四段的“Next, they placed those pee samples along the paths.(接下来,他们将这些尿液样本沿着小路放置。)” 可知,研究人员在野外收集大象尿液样本,在七条大象常走的道路上安装摄像机来观察大象的行为,并把 尿液样本放在路边来了解嗅觉对大象的影响。由此可推知,研究人员是通过野外研究的方式得出结论的。故选Ao3 .推理判断题。根据最后段“ Based on these results, they hope conservationists might be able to use elephant pee as a decoy (诱饵).If we can trick elephants into thinking other elephants are going this way, maybe we can redirect them away from where they are coming into conflict with humans at the moment.(基于这些结果,他们希望环保 人士可以用大象的尿液作为诱饵。如果我们能哄骗大象,让它们以为其他大象正朝这条路走,也许我们就 能引导它们离开与人类发生冲突的地方。)”可知,如果人类可以利用大象的尿液作为诱饵骗过大象,引导 大象改变行进方向,就能避免与人类发生冲突。因此推断研究结果的潜在益处是使人类和大象能够和平共 处。故选D。4 .主旨大意题。综观全文,尤其是第三段中的 uespecially elephants travelling alone, which is an indication, the researchers said, that smells may serve as signposts along the paths.(特别是大象独自旅行,研究人员说,这是一 个迹象,气味可能是道路上的路标。)”及第四段中的“And they found that for at least two days, passing elephants trained their trunks on the samples, especially samples from mature adults, which is another indication that smells might be an effective navigational signal.(他们发现,在至少两天的时间里,经过的大象用它们的鼻子来训 练样本,特别是来自成年大象的样本,这是另一个迹象,表明气味可能是一种有效的导航信号。)”可知, 本文主要讲述的是行为生态学家Connie Allen和同事们通过研究发现非洲象根据尿液的气味进行远距离活 动。故选C。第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Nowadays, learning a foreign language is becoming more and more common. 16 As you may have heard, language learning is a marathon, not a sprint (短跑).But at the end it will be well worth it.
