A major mason for conflict in the animal world is territory. The male animal【C1】______an area. The size of the area is sufficient to provide food for him, his【C2】______and their offspring. Migrating birds, for example,【C3】______up the best territory in the order of "first come, first【C4】______". The late arrivals may acquire【C5】______ territories, but【C6】______food is available, or they are too close to the【C7】______of the enemies of the species.
When there is conflict over territory, animals will commonly use force, or a【C8】______of force, to decide which will stay and which will go. It is interesting to note,【C9】______, that animals seem to use only the【C10】______ amount of force necessary to drive away the intruder. There is usually no killing. In the【C11】______of those animals which are capable【C12】______doing each other harm, there is a【C13】______for the losing animal to show the winning animal that he wishes to submit.
When he shows this, the【C14】______normally stops fighting. Animals( especially birds),【C15】______can easily escape from conflict seem to have no【C16】______against killing, and equally no mechanism for【C17】______. The losing bird simply flies away. However, two pigeons are placed in a cage, and they start if fighting, they will continue to fight【C18】______one kills the other. We all think of the pigeon as a【C19】______of peace and, in its natural habitat, it is peaceful. But the "peace" mechanism does not【C20】______in a cage. [br] 【C8】
选项
A、practice
B、proof
C、show
D、comparison
答案
C
解析
此题为词语辨析题。原文此处的意思是:当就领土问题产生争执的时候,动物通常使用武力,或炫耀武力,来决定谁留下谁走开。通过语法分析,我们可知道要选择的词组要与 use force 相对,否则就造成语义重复。A) practice 是“实行,实践”的意思,与use force 语义相同; B) proof,是“证据,试验”的意思,与原文相距甚远;C) show 这里是“显示”的意思,a show of force是“显示、炫耀武力”的含义,为正确答案;D) comparison 的意思是“比较”,与上下文不符。
