阅读短文,并按要求完成下列句子。
We know that many animals do not stay in one place. Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another place at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.
When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration is probably the migration of the fish which is called “salmon” (鲑鱼).This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.
Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster (龙虾).Every year, when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go. So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another place, but at other times we don't. Maybe living things just like to travel.

(5) (the season of) the bad weather arrives
【解析】本文讲述动物迁徙的现象和原因。鸟儿迁徙到温暖的地方寻找食物,鲑鱼的迁徙是为了回到出生的地方产卵,龙虾的迁徙是为了躲避恶劣天气。
(1)细节理解。根据第一段They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily,可知答案是: to find food more easily
(2)词义猜测。根据The most famous migration is probably the migration of the fish which is called “salmon”最著名的迁徙可能是叫做鲑鱼的鱼的迁徙,此处使用migration是因为前文已经反复提到了动物迁徙的问题。所以这个词就是migration。
(3)词义猜测。句意:在那儿,他们度过余生。可知there指前文中个提到的salt water,故填(in) salt water。
(4)细节理解。根据When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies.可知答案是give birth and die。
(5)细节理解。根据第三段Every year, when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean.每年当坏天气的季节到来是,龙虾排成队开始穿越海底。故填 the season of the bad weather arrives。
