8.The deep ocean is considered to be anything below the photic zone (透光层),which only extends a few hundred meters down into the ocean's waters,and this huge area is home to all of the deep ocean fish.These fish have special capabilities that allow them to live at high pressures and to survive cold ocean water.Most of these deep ocean fish cannot live in any other environment so not much is known about their behavior.
There is no natural light in the deepest part of the ocean so fish there have different ways of knowing what is going on around them.Some deep ocean fish have very large eyes which have adapted to the darkness.Other fish have feelers (触须) which help them to find food.The angler fish is so named because it has a fishingpoletype object which can move like a worm to attract prey(猎物).
Because there is no photosynthesis(光合作用)under the ocean,any plant matter that fish may need for nutrients has to sink down from above.On the whole,this makes deep ocean fish smaller in overall size and weight but with larger mouths than those who live higher up in shallow water.
Many deep ocean fish have to float around waiting for something to eat to pass by.There are thousands of species of deep ocean fish and most of these are darkly colored to mix into the surroundings so as not to attract enemies.
The further down into the ocean you go,the more you will find different kinds of fish.For example,the bottomdwelling sharks spend most of their time resting on the ocean bottom.They must keep moving at all times so that air can be forced through their lungs.They wait for their prey to come along and suddenly attack them whenever possible.If these sharks stopped swimming they would die.

分析 主要讲述了在深海生存的深海鱼以及其自身的一些特点等.
解答 32.A:细节理解题.根据第一段"The deep ocean is considered to be anything below the photic zone…which only extends a few hundred meters down into the ocean's waters"可知,深海在透光层下.结合选项,故选A.
33.B:细节理解题.根据第三段"On the whole,this makes deep ocean fish smaller in overall size and weight but with larger mouths than those who live higher up in shallow water."可知多数深海鱼体型小重量轻.但是他们的嘴却要比浅水域的鱼大,故B为正确选项.
34.D:细节理解题.根据第四段"There are thousands of species of deep ocean fish and most of these are darkly colored to mix into the surroundings so as not to attract enemies."可知大多数深海鱼颜色都比较深色化,故答案应选D.
35.B:推理判断题.根据文章内容,主要讲述了在深海生存的深海鱼以及其自身的一些特点等,由此可推知最有可能在科学类杂志上读到此文章.故选B
