问题     Male lions axe rather reserved about expending their energy in hunting. More than three quarters of kills are made by lionesses. Setting off【C1】______dusk on a hunt, the lionesses are in【C2】______, tensely scanning ahead, the young lions fall playfully behind, and the【C3】______bring up the rear, walking slowly,  their massive【C4】______nodding with each step as ff they【C5】______with the whole matter. But【C6】______may have survival value.【C7】______lionesses busy hunting, the males【C8】______as guards for the young ,【C9】______them particularly from hyenas (袋狼). Hunting lionesses have learnt to【C10】______their environment.  Darkness【C11】______them with cover, and at dusk they【C12】______wait near animals they want to kill【C13】______their outlines blend into the surroundings.

Usually a lioness pulls her prey down【C17】______running up behind【C18】______, and then seizes it【C19】______the throat.

【C15】

选项 A、common
B、various
C、different
D、similar

答案C

解析 本句译文是:“对于像角马那样的猎物,狮子们用的是一种不同的方法。”“be used with....”中的with是“针对”的含义。我们不知角马是强是弱,是大是小,可能会有这样一种误解:如果technique指的是上文提及的“用爪子抓”,那么它就是一种对像角马那样弱小动物的常用方法。但是,这种假想不能成立,因为这样一来,此句无法和下文联结,下文出现显得突兀,而且,若假想正确的话,A common technique应改为The common technique(因为上文已提及)。
