[单项选择]Passage Four

Why has the kiwi survived while its relatives the moas have become extinct One reason, I think, is that it has adopted nocturnal(夜间活动的) habits. Kiwis are not normally about in the daytime. During the daylight hours they lie up in hiding, where enemies have no hope of finding them. Their coloration protects them; the strange drab(黄褐色的) feathering, so unlike that of most birds, gives them a cloak(伪装)of invisibility while they sleep. And when night falls, out they come to scratch in the ground and find worms and feed to their hearts’ content. They couldn’t do that so effectively if they didn’t have another peculiarity that I have not mentioned yet. The nostrils(鼻孔) of most birds open high up near the base of the beak(猛禽的嘴), but the kiwi wears his nostrils right near the tip of the long bill. That’s good for a bird that feeds in th A. it stays out of sight and sleeps during the day B. it usually goes from place to place during the day C. it changes the colour of its feather in the daytime D. it is caught and eaten by its enemy in the daytime 查看答案 更多"Passage Four Why has the "的相关试题: [单项选择]Passage Four Why has the kiwi survived while its relatives the moas have become extinct One reason, I think, is that it has adopted nocturnal(夜间活动的) habits.

The idea of democracy came from the ancient Greeks; the Industrial Revolution started in England; jazz and rock music preserve African rhythms—to pick a few examples. Indeed, many of the things we think of as "100 percent American" came from other cultures. Still, most of the changes in American culture over the last century have come from within, as the result of inventions and discoveries. And change has been dramatic. One hundred years ago the United States was largely a nation of farmers. Many of the things we take for granted today—a high school education, for example, or indoor plumbing—were luxuries then. The moon was a light for lovers, not a site for scientific exploration; genetic engineering (基因工程) was not even a subject for science fiction, mu A. There is no 100 percent American culture. B. American culture has never be influenced by other cultures. C. America borrowed the idea of democracy from the ancient Greeks. D. Inventions and discoveries caused the changes within American culture. 查看答案 [单项选择]Why has Don been missing work A. He has been job hunting. B. He has not been feeling well. C.

Wainwright found confirmation that Morrell gave Hitler antibiotics as a precaution in a recent translation of Morr A. began to exercise precautions against his personal attacks B. was anxious to have penicillin developed in his country C. received an injection of penicillin for blood poisoning D. was suspected of being likely to get infected 查看答案 我来回答: 提交 最新试题 ●    由发包人采购的设备，由于制造原因达不到验收要求，应( )。 ●    上能敛肺气，下能滋肾阴的药物是（） ●    [单选题]死区间与相邻轨道电路的间隔不得小于（ ﹚。 ●    [判断题]66.案件风险事件发生后，银监局、银监会直接监管的银行业金融机构总部应当立即按照本办法的规 ●    [多选题]煤矿井下发生事故时,现场人员要遵循以下行动原则( )。掌握 ●    [多选题]在我国,劳动安全技术规程主要包括() 网站地图 我要搜题网  版权所有  ©2023  湘ICP备18016427号   购买搜题卡查看答案 [会员特权] 开通VIP， 查看 全部题目答案 [会员特权] 享免全部广告特权 推荐91天 ¥36.8 ￥80元 31天 ¥20.8 ￥40元 365天 ¥88.8 ￥188元 请选择支付方式 微信支付 支付宝支付 点击支付即表示同意并接受了《购买须知》 立即支付 系统将自动为您注册账号 已有账号登录 找回账号密码 请使用微信扫码支付 订单号： 请不要关闭本页面，支付完成后请点击【支付完成】按钮 支付完成 取消支付 恭喜您，购买搜题卡成功 系统为您生成的账号密码如下： 账号 密码 重要提示：请拍照或截图保存账号密码！ 我要搜题网官网：https://www.woyaosouti.com 我已记住账号密码
