题目内容
14.Lions are opportunists.They prefer to eat without having to do too much work.When resting in the shade,they are also watching the sky to see what is flying by,and even in the heat of the day they wil suddenly start up and run a mile across the plains to find out what is going on.If another animal has made a kill,they will drive it off and take the dill for themselves.A grown lion can easily eat 60 pounds of meat at a single feeding.Often they eat until it seems painful for them to lie down.The lionesses (母狮),being thinner and faster,are better hunters (猎手) than the males (雄狮).But the males don't mind.After the kill they move in and take the test share.
Most kills are made at night or just before daybreak.We have seen many,many daylight attempts but only ten kills.Roughly,it's about twenty daytime attempts for one kill.
When lions are hiding for an attack by a water hole,they wait patiently and can charge at any second.The kill is the exciting moment in the day-to-day life of the lion,since these great animals spend most of their time,about 20 hours a day,sleeping and resting.
Lions are social cats,and when they are having a rest,they love to touch each other.After drinking at a water hole,a lioness rests her head on another's back.When walking,young lions often touch faces with older ones,an act of close ties among members of the group.

29.B.解析:这是一道判断正误题.根据"The lionesses are better hunters than the males"和"But the males don't mind.After the kill they move in and take the test share."可知雄狮捕食能力差但是吃得好.故选B.
30.D.解析:这是一道推理题.根据最后一句"an act of close ties among members of the group"和最后一段描述的狮群的行动可以知道狮子很享受这种集体生活.故选D.
31.B.解析:这是一道主旨题.这篇文章是讲狮子在猎食和生活中的特性,选项A过于抽象,不能表现文中描述的要点,C和D都过于片面,只概括了其中一个部分,只有B比较全面和准确.故选B.
