问题 According to the text, the ivory-billed woodpecker ______.
By saying that the book of "Grail Bird" could "easily be a book about the hunt for Bigfoot", the author means that ______.
选项 A、the book is merely about the hunt for impossible things.
B、if the bird had not been discovered by the researchers, the book would have been like all the books about Bigfoot- only legends, no facts and truths.
C、the hunt for the ivory-billed woodpecker enjoys similarity to the hunt for Bigfoot, because both of them are rare animals.
D、the book is about the human obsession of finding legendary animals and about their guilty conscience facing nature.
答案B
解析 选项A不对，因为这并不是一本单纯关于寻找根本不存在的事物的读本，而有其更深刻的意义。C不对因为这里的“大脚怪”代指一切只存在于传说中而非现实中的动物，如果这本书最后变成像追寻“大脚怪”的书一样，则表示动物没有找到，书只是人类一系列盲目猜想的集合。D不对并不是因为这句话说错了，而是因为与这句话的意思不符，原文这种句话是说“要不是作者最后发现了这种奇异的鸟类，这本书很可能会像所有讲述寻找大脚怪的书一样，只是一堆空想的集合，没有最终结果”。因此选择B。
