试题分析：短文大意：许多人认为骆驼的驼峰储存水，但它没有。骆驼的驼峰真的是一个驼峰的脂肪。当骆驼，通常被称为“沙漠之舟”，在有充足的水和食物的地方，它吃喝得很多。因为骆驼能够把食物转化为脂肪，然后它就把脂肪储存在驼峰里。骆驼有单峰驼和双峰驼两种。

【1】A细节理解题。根据最后一段中There are one—humpcamels and two—hump camels.可知有单峰驼和双峰驼两种，所以该选A。

【2】C细节理解题。根据第一段中When the camel,often called”a ship of the desert”,is not travelling and is in a place where there is plenty of food and water,it eats and drinks a lot.可知在一个有充足的水和食物的地方，骆驼吃喝得很多。所以该选C。

【3】D细节理解题。根据第一段中As it does so, its hump rises from the fat its body makes. Then when the camel is travelling through the desert and when there is little food,it can live off the stored fat.可知骆驼能够把食物转化为脂肪,然后它就把脂肪储存在驼峰里，所以该选D。

【4】B细节理解题。根据第二段的描述可知骆驼的驼峰从后面或侧面滑下来是因为里面几乎没有脂肪了，所以该选B。

【5】C细节理解题。根据第二段中A camel can go on for days or weeks with little feed or water可知骆驼可以在非承载的环境下生活，所以该选C。
