第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
New research abut male guppies, a trpical fish fund in mst fresh and saltwater envirnments published in the jurnal Functinal Eclgy suggests that male guppies expsed t high predatin (捕食行动) levels ften develp larger brain sizes than thse living in lw-risk envirnments. Cnsequently, the develpment f larger brain sizes amng the male guppy ppulatin allws fr better chances f survival under high predatin cnditins.
The team began its research in the suthern Caribbean. They cncentrated their bservatins n ppulatins lcated in tw independent rivers. In each, they cllected male guppies living abve and belw the waterfalls. A small amunt f predatrs lived in the waters abve the waterfall, therefre the lcal guppy ppulatin had evlved (进化) under predatin-pr cnditins int a predatin-pr ppulatin.
On the ther hand, belw the waterfall, predatrs were fund t be increasing, making envirnment dangerus. Scientists nticed that male guppies lcated abve the waterfalls ften displayed n average smaller brain sizes than males living under the waterfall.
The next step was t find ut if male guppies frm high-predatin ppulatin nly had larger brains as a result f lng evlutinary prcesses r a direct respnse t expsure (暴露) t risk during develpment. This questin tk the team away frm the trpics and back t the labratry, taking a sample grup f guppies riginating frm high predatin grup. These were divided int tw test ppulatins. The first grup was expsed t the sight and smell f a predatr living in a nearby aquarium fr five minutes at a time, five times a week. The ther guppies served as a cntrl grup and lived in nn-predatry places. The results shwed that males expsed t predatrs have 21 per cent heavier brains than thse f the cntrl grup.
Male guppies are generally mre clrful than females and thus mre likely t be expsed t predatin threats. The increase in intellect culd ffer males advantages such as the ability t detect and react t danger earlier, increasing their chances f survival.
21.We learn frm the passage that ______.
A. smarter fish have better chances f survival
B. guppies can’t survive in high predatr cnditins
C. the size f guppies changes with the envirnment
D. larger brains nly result frm lng evlutinary prcess
