黃金閱讀 The Origins of Cetaceans - 英檢

Table of Contents

It should be obvious that cetaceans—whales, porpoises, and dolphins-are
mammals. They breathe through lungs, not through gills, and give birth to
live young. Their streamlined bodies, the absence of hind legs, and the
presence of a fluke(1) and blowhole(2) cannot disguise their affinities
with land dwelling mammals.

1. In paragraph 1, what does the author say about the presence of a
blowhole in cetaceans?

(1)It clearly indicates that cetaceans are mammals.
(2)It cannot conceal the fact that cetaceans are mammals.
(3)It is the main difference between cetaceans and land-dwelling mammals.
(4)It cannot yield clues about the origins of cetaceans.

答案是(2)

為什麼答案不是(3)呢? 原文中意思應該是即使cetaceans有blowhole,
但是cetaceans和land dwelling mammals還是有關係

cetaceans是mammals文章不是一開頭就已經講了嗎

謝謝大家!

我覺得原文是說 即使有這些類似魚類的特徵 但還是無

法隱藏和mammal有親屬的關係! 第2個答案就是說這個吧!
Carolina Franco avatarCarolina Franco2010-11-29
而且第3個選項 也無法確定它是main difference!?

1.文中有提到cannot dis 答案也有類似的 而且不是推論題

法掩飾cetaceans是mammals 你可以加although進去唸唸
Odelette avatarOdelette2010-12-15
Although their body is streamlined.............. ,
it cannot disguise ...... it開始才是句子強調的
