Question

【题目】阅读理解。
Honey(蜂蜜）from African(非洲）forest is very delicious.
Most people and many animals like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees' nest(蜂巢）and take honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. But in parts of Africa, people and animals have a strange helper — a little bird called a honey helper.
In fact, the honey helper does not like honey, but it likes the wax(蜂蜡）in the nest. The little bird cannot reach the wax because it is inside the bees' nest. So, when it finds a nest, it looks for someone to help. The little bird sings loudly to get the attention(注意） of both passing animals and people. When it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting for the following animal or person that loves honey. Then it helps them find the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower tries to get the delicious honey and the bird waits and watches. Some of the honey and the wax always fall to the ground, and this is when the bird takes its share.
Scientists do not know why the bird likes eating the wax, but they seem to be able to smell the wax far away.

【答案】
（1）B
（2）D
（3）C
（4）B
【解析】文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Honey-Lover's Helper独特的掠食方式，帮助人和动物找到蜂蜜，待到他们吃掉蜂蜜后，它再吃蜂蜡。科学家们对此也感到迷惑不解。
（1）根据文章第一段“Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them.”故选B。
（2）词义猜测题。根据文章中“In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper一a little bird called a honey guide.”可推知：跟在honey guide后面的是：people and animals，而他们统称为honey seeker（寻找蜂蜜的人或动物们）。故选D。
（3）推理判断题。根据文章的最后一段可知：Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it.科学家们都不知道为什么honey guide对蜂蜡感兴趣，当然他们获得蜂蜡的方式也更加特别。故选C。
（4）归纳理解题。文章通篇都在叙述有关Honey-Lover's Helper的事情，第一段通过叙述引出Honey-Lover's Helper中心词；第二段叙述Honey-Lover's Helper获取蜂蜡是过程；第三段科学家们对Honey-Lover's Helper的感到迷惑。故选B。
