【解析】
试题分析:本文讲述了一种特殊的蝙蝠。主要介绍了它的体型、头部特征、主食以及生活习性和母飞狐的哺育婴儿的特点等内容。
1.这是一种超大的蝙蝠,有类似于狐狸的头,主要以水果而不是昆虫为主食。本句为肯定前者否定后者,故用instead of表示“而不是”,故答案为instead
2.和其他的蝙蝠一样,飞狐在休息时通过脚趾悬挂着,当他们飞出去旅行时则是群居在一起的。根据前面的when at rest和后面的when out flying可知,应该是在外出旅行时一起活动;故答案为travel
3.一群飞狐通常会在一个地方一起生活好几年。“生活”用live;故答案为live
4.当他们返回到朝阳的树上时,他们自身之间会为了争夺最好的场地而长久地相互争吵或打架。among意为“在……之间”,故答案为among
5.飞狐一年生育一次,一次只能生育一个幼崽。have babies意为“生育孩子,拥有孩子”;故答案为babies
6.最初,母亲飞狐必须随处都要将婴儿抱在怀里。carry意为“抱,抬”;故答案为carry
7.后来她让婴儿悬挂在树上,并且带回食物来供它吃。Leave sth doing sth意为“使某物一直处于某种状态中”;故答案为leaves
8.有时,幼儿飞狐会掉到地上,并大叫救命。飞狐在树上掉到地上才会摔疼大叫;故答案为ground
9.如果他们不把掉在地上的飞狐叼起来,它就会死掉。Fail to do sth意为“没有做到某事”;故答案为fail
10.经常会在树脚下的地面上会发现有好几百只幼儿飞狐的尸体。根据前面一句说如果掉到地上的飞狐不被叼起会死掉可知,应该有许多小飞狐遭遇死亡的不幸;故答案为dead
考点:短文填空。
