答案與解析

1.D。從上下文語境看，這裏要填入的只是一個物主代詞，即指出是誰的front flippers。前面在談whale時用的是單數，所以這裏要用單數的代詞its。

2.A。本句是説，鯨魚的力氣之大，藍鯨的拉力估計可達400馬力。除了strength，其他三個選項和力氣無關，分別是寬度、高度和長度。

3.c。本句是説，藍鯨的巨大拉力表現在它能拉得動一艘捕鯨船，所以這裏需要填入一個表示“拉”或“拖”的.動詞。

4.B。本句是説，藍鯨能以什麼速度來拖這條捕鯨船。在四個選項中只有rate的意思是“速度”，和speed同義。

5.C。本句是説，發怒的鯨魚會對船發動攻擊。下面舉例説明，所以選example。

6.A。表示在離開海岸不遠處用介詞off。

7.B。從上下文語境看，in their iaws這個短語決定了這裏只可能用seize這個動詞。鯨魚把古代的捕鯨船咬在嘴裏，然後把它咬碎。

8.c。從上下文語境看，這裏在講鯨魚潛水的本領，所以選c。其他選項fly(飛)，iump(跳)，crawl(爬)，這三個動作都不是鯨魚能做的。

9.A。這裏考查習慣搭配，search前面的介詞用in。inthat search意為“在這一搜尋過程中”。

10.A。so用來代替前面所説過的一個動作。這裏它指的是sperm whale為了覓食潛至海底3200英尺處。

11.B。store up的意思是“儲存”。從上下文語境看，由於鯨魚要在深海中停留一小時，它當然要有儲存氧氣的本領，所以這裏要填入的是oxygen。

12.c。本句是説，科學家只知道鯨魚有儲存氧氣和抵禦壓力的絕技，但它究竟是怎麼做到這一點的，他們卻還不知道。注意這個句子裏的賓語從句被移到前面來了。正常的語序是：Scientists have not determined how he does it.

13.A。這裏用的是it is believed that…句型。it是形式主語，指代後面的that從句。這個that從句是一個主語從句。

14.C。這裏缺少的顯然是一個連接詞，因為後面是一個從句而不是短語。在四個選項中只有since是連接詞，另外三個選項都是複合介詞，後面都跟名詞，不能跟一個句子。

15.B。從上下文語境看，既然你無法把一條活的鯨魚搬到實驗室裏來研究，自然沒有人知道這到底是怎麼一回事。根據意思可知此處選knows。
