34、rchers caught and measured nearly 2,000 birds.”可知答案为C项。2.A细节理解题。根据第四段中的“And in years when the snowmelt arrives early,the arthropods reach the greatest quantity before the birds need them.Therefore,chicks miss out on eating well.”可知,如果融雪期提前到来的话,等红腹滨鹬的幼鸟孵化出来时,它们已经错过了节肢动物数量最多的时候,因此没有足够的食物吃。3.B推理判断题。根据倒

35、数第二段中的“.adult birds feed on thin-shelled bivalves,Loripes lucinalis.But the bivalves are buried deep.”可推测,Loripes lucinalis这种贝类在地下比较深的地方,因此嘴短的红腹滨鹬吃不到它们,影响生存。4.B写作目的题。通读全文可知,本文介绍了在融雪期特别早的年份孵化出来的红腹滨鹬会体格变小、鸟嘴变短,从而直接影响它们生存的事实。.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者身患癌症,但没有抱怨,而是通过写诗歌和小说来阐述人生,最终战胜了病魔。1.A上文说,作者对于患上癌症首先想到的是“死
