知,在烏鴉的腿上綁上了塑料帶子。3.A由上文“caughtcrows”可知,烏鴉被捕所以不開心。4.C由下文“thecrowsscoldedloudly”和實(shí)驗(yàn)內(nèi)容可知,研究人員戴上面具在烏鴉腿上綁上塑料帶子,然后將它們放了,之后戴上面具后,發(fā)現(xiàn)烏鴉攻擊他們,這說明烏鴉能認(rèn)出他們。5.B由下文“tothem”可知,此處指烏鴉沒有任何反應(yīng)。reactto固定搭配,意為“對(duì)……作出反應(yīng)”。6.D由下文“humanswalkedbywhilewearingthemasks”和常識(shí)可知,為了保證實(shí)驗(yàn)的可信性,應(yīng)是同一批人戴著面具走過。7.A由上文“thecrowsscoldedloudlyanddivedattheir”和上文提到的研究者捆綁烏鴉可知,烏鴉把他們當(dāng)成敵人,在認(rèn)出他們之后去攻擊他們。8.B由下文“Theylook,theythin
