Q14. Directions: An introductory sentence for a brief summary of the passage is provided below. Complete the summary by selecting the THREE answer that express the most important ideas in the passage. Some sentences do not belong in the summary because they express ideas that not presented in the passage or are minor ideas in the passage. This question is worth 2 points. Experiments have shed much light on the begging behaviors of baby songbirds ● ● ● Answer Choices 1 Songbird species that are especially vulnerable to predators have evolved ways of reducing the dangers associated with begging calls. 2 Songbird parents focus their feeding effort on the nestlings that beg loudest for food. 3 It is genetically disadvantageous for nestlings to behave as if they are really hungry when they are not really hungry. 4 The begging calls of songbird nestlings provide a good example of overly damaging cost to signalers of signaling. 5 The success with which songbird nestlings communicate their hunger to their parents is dependent on the frequencies of the nestlings' begging calls. 6 Songbird nestlings have evolved several different ways to communicate the intensity of their hunger to their parents. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 標注的答案是1、2、3, 可是我想請問為什麼4不能選。 我覺得第4句點出了這篇文章的一大重點, 而且它也不是瑣碎的內容。 所以我選了1、3、4。 難道是因為第4句太空泛了而顯得不重要? 麻煩大家解答了,謝謝。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.123.197.80

並沒有overly damaging, 因為文章有提到為什麼即使面對威

脅鳥兒還是要叫,因為要生存->保存眾多良好基因->增加繁殖

基本上這選項的確滿誘人的,但可以從三個方面剃除它

1.相較正確選項三個,此選項比起來不夠好

2.several different ways不好,文中只提到為了生存而大叫

父母會依照叫的大小聲給食物,又提到考慮到基因,兄弟會讓食

這是一種天性,並沒有透過(文中也找不到)"很多"方法做到

3.evolve用的不好,承前述,是一種內發天性,不太是演化過程
05/22 00:09, 9F

以上是個人淺見,如有錯誤請見諒
