第一节阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)

All living beings have enemies. And they all have developed interesting ways to keep them at bay. Some animals hide,others run,or just fly away when faced with danger. These are their defence methods.

Some animals can hide without moving. They have the unique ability to change their colour according to the change of the surroundings. They become invisible to the predator (猎食者) . This method of defence is called “camouflage”.

The most common example of an animal which uses camouflage is the chameleon (变色龙) . If it is on a green leaf,it turns green and if it is on a brown branch,it turns brown.

Some rabbits change colour with the change of the season. The snowshoe hare is brown in summer and white in winter. The white fur serves as camouflage in the snow in winter.

Many non-poisonous snakes take on colours similar to poisonous snakes in order to scare off enemies. This form of defence is called mimicry (模仿) . Some poisonous snakes have very bright colours to warn enemies. This form of defence is called “warning colouration”.

There is a kind of fish called the puffer fish which uses an extraordinary device to keep predators away. It swells up (膨胀) like a balloon when it is attacked.Then,its attacker finds it difficult to swallow it.

Animals which cannot protect themselves in these ways develop other means to do so. Some have claws and teeth which they use to fight;others have poison fangs. Snakes bite,bees sting and skunks give off an unpleasant smelling liquid to ward off enemies.
