【解析】

【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要解釋了蠶蛾為什么會(huì)長(zhǎng)出長(zhǎng)尾巴。

【12題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段""Clearly,theirtailsprovidedananti-batadvantage/'Weeksobserved.thinktheywere

usedtodirectbatsawayfromthemoths，body.”（Weeks觀察到：“顯然，它們的尾巴提供了反蝙蝠的優(yōu)勢(shì)，我

認(rèn)為它們被用來(lái)引導(dǎo)蝙蝠離開(kāi)蠶蛾的身體。）”可知，ArchibaldWeeks提出：蠶蛾用尾巴迷惑蝙蝠，引導(dǎo)蝙

蝠遠(yuǎn)離自己，故選B。

【13題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段"Barberexplainedthatbatswerenotvisualhunters.（Barber解釋說(shuō)，蝙蝠不是視覺(jué)獵

人。）”可知，JesseBarber總結(jié)：蝙蝠不是視覺(jué)獵人。故選A。

【14題詳解】

詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)最后——段“Thatwaswhatthelunamoths9tailsdid:Astheyflew,theywavedbehindthemand

producedsoundsthatweresimilartotheirwingbeats.（那就是蠶蛾的尾巴所做的：當(dāng)它們飛時(shí)，尾巴在它們身

后揮舞，并發(fā)出類似于它們翅膀拍打的聲音。）”可知，此處描述蠶蛾飛時(shí)，尾巴產(chǎn)生的聲音。上下文內(nèi)容

一致，故推知they指代Tailbeats,表示“尾巴拍打的聲音”。故選D。

【15題詳解】

主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段“Youdon'tneedtobeanexperttorecognizelunamoths（蠶蛾）.Theyhavehairywhite

bodies,redlegsandhugegreenwingsthatstretchupto4.5inchesacross.Andattheendoftheirwingsareapairof

longtailsthathaveattractedscientistsforcenturies.（你無(wú)需成為專家即可認(rèn)出蠶蛾。它們有毛茸茸的白色身體，

紅色的腿和伸展到4.5英寸的巨大綠色翅膀。在它們的翅膀末端是一對(duì)長(zhǎng)尾巴，幾個(gè)世紀(jì)以來(lái)一直吸引著科

學(xué)家。）”可知，文章主要講述幾個(gè)世紀(jì)以來(lái)一直吸引著科學(xué)家的蠶蛾的長(zhǎng)尾巴之謎。故標(biāo)題為WhyDoLuna

MothsHaveSuchTroublesomeLongTails?（為什么月蠶蛾會(huì)有這么麻煩的長(zhǎng)尾巴？）,故選C。

第二節(jié)（共5小題;每小題2分，滿分10分）

與下文一致，故選F。

【18題詳解】
