A conservation group in the United States is trying to change the long-standing image of bats as frightening creatures. The group contends that bats are feared and persecuted solely because they are shy animals that are active only at night. Which of the following, if true, would cast the most serious doubt on the accuracy of the group’s contention?
选项
A、Hals are steadily losing natural roosting places such as caves and hollow trees and are thus turning to more developed areas for roosting.
B、Hats are the chief consumers of nocturnal insects and thus can help make their hunting territory more pleasant for humans.
C、Hats are regarded as frightening creatures not only in the United States but also in Europe, Africa, and South America.
D、Raccoons and owls are shy and active only at night; yet they are not generally feared and persecuted.
E、People know more about the behavior of other greatly feared animal species, such as lions, alligators, and snakes, than they do about the behavior of bats.
答案
D
解析
读题重点放在最后一句话的“solely because they are shy animals…”。该组织的论述指出见人就躲避并且在夜间活动的动物因此让人害怕和烦乱,选项(D)指出浣熊和猫头鹰也见人就躲避并且也在夜间活动,但是它们既不让人害怕也不令人烦乱。因此,(D)是正确答案。尽管蝙蝠出没范围的扩大可以解释提出人们对蝙蝠的恐惧这个问题的重要性,选项(A)没有指出产生这种恐惧的根本原因。选项(B)和(E),尽管与人们对蝙蝠的恐惧的理性分析有关,但不影响对该组织论述准确性的评判;除美国之外,蝙蝠也让人害怕,如(C)所述,同该组织对在美国出现的对于蝙蝠的恐惧的解释并不矛盾。
