选项 _________(51)A:aspectsB: signsC: waysD: reasons
答案B
解析第一段讲到鲸鱼很像陆地上的哺乳动物，最后一句举了一些例子来说明这一点。sign 的意思是“符号，特征，迹象”，鲸鱼具有陆地上哺乳动物的一些特征，故选B。 something is built into…的意思是“把……装（建、插）入……”，这里指鲸鱼具有巨大的 气力。其他几个选项意思上讲不通。 at表示“（速度、比率等）以，达”;horsepower表示“马力”。 rate表示“速度”，从上下文来讲，选D意思才讲得通。 此题亦必须根据上下文的意思来推测选哪个词。鲸鱼被惹怒后会攻击船只，所以选B。 这里是一非限制性定语从句，关系代词作主语，用which，故选C。 "have + something＋过去分词”是一固定结构。 本题所在句子为该段主题句，谈的是鲸鱼的潜水能力。鲸鱼的潜水能力很强，能下潜 到很深的地方，科学家们不解，所以说是个谜，故选D。 虽然本题的几个选项都能与food搭配，但从上下文意思来讲，只有A正确。 空格后面说的是每平方英寸1400磅，这指的是压强，故选B。 待在水下要用动词remain，其他几个动词放人空格处意思讲不通。 此题也必须在读懂上下文意思的基础上才能作出判断，这里指鲸鱼储存氧气，故选D。 上文谈到鲸鱼为什么能够在水下承受巨大的压力，科学家们还没有找到答案。选项中 的determine的意思是“确定”，此词放入空格处意思讲得通，其他几个选项讲不通，故选B。 special虽然和几个选项都能搭配使用，但只有选项A意思上讲得通，故A为正确答案， 此处是指氧气存在特殊的血管系统中。 此题亦需根据上下文的意思作出判断。automatically的意思是“自动地”。
