Most animals seek shade when temperatures in the Sahara Desert soar to 120 degrees Fahrenheit. But for the Saharan silver ant,【C1】________from their underground nests into the sun’s brutal rays to【C2】________for food, this is the perfect time to seek lunch. In 2015 these ants were joined in the desert by scientists from two Belgian universities, who spent a month in the【C3】________heat tracking the ants and digging out their nests. The goal was simple, to discover how the 【C4】________adapted to the kind of heat that can【C5】________melt the bottom of shoes.
Back in Belgium, the scientists looked at the ants under an electronic microscope and found that their【C6】________, triangular hair reflects light like a prism (棱镜), giving them a metallic reflection and protecting them from the sun’s awful heat. When Ph. D. student Quentin Willot【C7】________the hair from an ant with a【C8】________knife and put it under a heat lamp, its temperature jumped.
The ants’ method of staying cool is【C9】________among animals. Could this reflective type of hair protect people? Willot says companies are interested in【C10】________these ants’ method of heat protection for human use, including everything from helping to protect the lives of firefighters to keeping homes cool in summer.

B) consciously J) removed
C) crawling K) species
D) crowded L) specimens

选项
答案
N
解析
形容词辨析题。空格位于不定冠词a之后,名词knife之前,因此空格处需要填入形容词。空格所在部分的句意为:当博士生昆汀.维洛特用一把_______刀从一只蚂蚁身上清除毛发。因为蚂蚁身体很小,所以用的刀子应该也是很小的,因此空格处应填入含有“小的”意义的形容词,故本题答案为N)tiny。
