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.
A) adapting I) remote
B) consciously J) removed
C) crawling K) species
D) crowded L) specimens
E) extreme M) thick
F) hunt N) tiny
G) literally O) unique
H) moderate [br] 【C10】
选项
答案
A
解析
动词辨析题。空格位于固定搭配are interested in之后及名词短语these ants’method之前,因此空格处需要填入动词的-ing形式。空格所在部分的句意为:一些公司有兴趣将这些蚂蚁的防热方法_______人类。前一句提到,这种反光型的毛发能保护人们吗?所以本句是在说,将这种方法应用到人类身上,因此空格处应填入含有“应用于,使用于”意义的动词,故本题答案为A)adapting。
