答案： 1. C 提示:细节理解题。根据第二段中“Wild horses had used their feet to dig wells as much as two metres deep at these sites, so they could reach water under dry river beds and streams.”可知,野马用脚在这些地点挖了两米深的井,这样它们就可以喝到干涸河床和溪流下的水。
2. B 提示:推理判断题。第二段主要介绍了来自澳大利亚、丹麦和美国的研究人员在美国的四个沙漠地点设置了远程摄像机。野马用脚在这些地方挖了两米深的井,这样它们就可以在干涸的河床和溪流下喝到水。摄像机被用来监视这些地点,并记录任何在它们面前移动的动物。结合选项可知,本段主要介绍研究方法。
3. D 提示:细节理解题。根据第三段中“The team also found that the wells offered water to desert plants.”可知,这些井为沙漠植物提供了水源。
4. A 提示:细节理解题。根据第四段中“Beavers cut down trees with their teeth, creating space in woods where sunlight can reach smaller plants and allow them to grow.”可知,河狸用牙齿啃倒树木,在树林中创造空间,阳光可以照射到较小的植物,让它们生长。
5. B 提示:主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文介绍了野马在沙漠中挖掘的水井不仅为自身提供了饮用水,还为其他动物和植物提供了宝贵的水源,从而在生态系统中发挥了类似自然工程师的作用,结合选项可知,选项 B“野马是自然工程师”符合文章大意。
