By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder (蝰蛇,小毒蛇). In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.
Most people regard snake bites as a fatal misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs heroically (英雄地),but mistakenly trying to do-it-yourself surgery and other unnecessary measure.
All snakes have small teeth, so it follows that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and are far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the way as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.
The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites in Britain and though the bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness. [br] Adders are most likely to be found______.
选项
A、in shady fields in England
B、on uncultivated land throughout Britain
C、in Scotland and nowhere else
D、in wilder parts of Britain and Ireland
答案
B
解析
本题问人们通常会在什么地方发现蝰蛇。文章第一段指出,在英国最常见的蛇是蝰蛇。在苏格兰其实根本没有其他类的蛇。蝰蛇在英国也是唯一的一种有毒的蛇。这种蛇几乎到处都可以见到,它们最喜欢光线充足的山坡和荒凉、辽阔的田野,其中包括高地。在爱尔兰根本没有蛇。因此,本题的正确答案应是B“在全英国未开垦的荒地里”。
