看完考满分的解析还是有点不太懂
想请问版上的大家
不好意思昨天po的时候3-6的原文不知道为什麽没有复制到最後一小段> <
3-6
原文
However, behavior is by far the most important factor in thermoregulation.
The principal elements in behavioral thermoregulation are basking
(heliothermy), heat exchange with substrates such as rock or earth
(thigmothermy), and diurnal and annual avoidance behaviors, which include
moving to shelter during the day for cooling and hibernating or estivating
(reducing activity during cold or hot weather, respectively) Heliothermy is
especially common among frogs and toads: it allows them to increase their
body temperature by more than 10°C. The Andean toad Bufo spinulosus exposes
itself immediately after sunrise on moist ground and attains its preferred
body temperature by this means, long before either ground or air is
correspondingly warmed. A positive side effect of this approach is that it
accelerates the digestion of the prey consumed overnight, thus also
accelerating growth.
Thigmothermy is a behavior present in most amphibians, although pressing
against the ground serves a dual purpose heat absorption by conductivity and
water absorption through the skin. The effect of thigmothermy is especially
evident in the Andean toad during rainfall: its body temperature corresponds
to the temperature of the warm earth and not to the much cooler air
temperature.
题目
The "Andean toad Bufo spinulosus" illustrates which of the following
behavioral modifications?
A Heliothermy and thigmothermy
C Absorbing heat from the air
答案为A，可是考虑到原文的
"long before either ground or air is correspondingly warmed."
我认为蟾蜍是没有利用从物体获取热量来调整自身温度的，所以还是想选C
3-12
同义改写
Amphibians are therefore hardly at mercy of ambient temperature, since by
means of the mechanisms described above they are more than exercising some
control over their body temperature.
B Thus, by the mechanisms described above, amphibians are quite capable of
controlling their body temperature to survive extreme ambient temperatures.
D Thus, the mechanisms described above give amphibians control over much more
than just their body temperature
答案为B，但我一直纠结在原文的more than
所以我的理解为 : 两栖动物还可以利用之前提到的方法，不仅是调节自身的温度
请大家帮我解惑~ 谢谢

1F：推 a2ab34bc: 虽然long before，但是太阳升起一段时间之後还是有可能 10/27 01:17
2F：→ a2ab34bc: 从其他物体获取热能吧?而且toad的举例接在介绍两种appro 10/27 01:17
3F：→ a2ab34bc: ach之後，感觉还是A答案比较适合 10/27 01:17
4F：推 a2ab34bc: 3-12的more than前有一个excercising，表示a动物对於控 10/27 01:24
5F：→ a2ab34bc: 制体温是玩真的(如前述方法)。选项D则表示这些方法可以 10/27 01:24
6F：→ a2ab34bc: 控制体温以外的东西，原文没有提及。 10/27 01:24

7F：→ marywang: 对不起我昨天复制原文的时候3.6的最後一段没有复制到 10/27 09:19
8F：→ marywang: 想说前面提过helio, thigmo两种，thigmo後来又有自己拿h 10/27 09:20
9F：→ marywang: 拿出来讲，那前面讲的应该就是helio而已 10/27 09:21
10F：推 yeahts: 1. 您注意举例解释的对象是谁(原文还特别用 especially) 10/27 09:38
11F：→ yeahts: 2. 再观察一下 more than 修饰的对象是谁 10/27 09:40
