25、知,答案为 C 项。2.A 细节理解题。根据第四段中的 “And in years when the snowmelt arrives early,the arthropods reach the greatest quantity before the birds need them.Therefore,chicks miss out on eating well.”可知,如果融雪期提前到来的话,等红腹滨鹬的幼鸟孵化出来时,它们已经错过了节肢动物数量最多的时候,因此没有足够的食物吃。3.B 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“.adult birds feed on thin-shelled b
26、ivalves,Loripes lucinalis.But the bivalves are buried deep.”可推测,Loripes lucinalis 这种贝类在地下比较深的地方,因此嘴短的红腹滨鹬吃不到它们,影响生存。4.B 写作目的题。通读全文可知,本文介绍了在融雪期特别早的年份孵化出来的红腹滨鹬会体型变小、鸟嘴变短,从而直接影响它们生存的事实。.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者身患癌症,但没有抱怨,而是通过写诗歌和小说来阐述人生,最终战胜了病魔。1.A 上文说,作者对于患上癌症首先想到的是 “死亡判决”; 下文说,作者并没有抱怨。据此可以判断,空处前后文之间是转折关系,
