But if it is rewarded three times, it will remember it for its【C7】______lifetime. " Said Menzel. He last week was awarded a【C8】______by the German Zoological Society.
    The memory capacity of bees means they can【C9】______among more than 50 different smells to find the one they want. "What is interesting is that what smells good to a bee, is also a【C10】______smell for humans. " said Menzel. [br] 【C2】

选项 A、as to
B、as much
C、up to
D、such as

答案 C
