问题     Liverpool city council want to clear the city of fat pigeons. They say that people are feeding the birds, which makes them fat. The pigeons get bigger because their normal diet would consist of seeds and insects, not high-fat junk food they are eating in the city centre.
    The council want people to know that everyone who feeds the pigeons is responsible for the streets being so crowded with these birds. They hope to encourage the birds to move away from the city centre and into parks and open spaces.
    Ten robotic birds have been brought into the city centre to scare the pigeons away and visitors are asked not to give the pigeons any food. The mechanical birds — known as "robops" — will sit on the roofs of buildings. They can be moved around to different locations. They look like a peregrine falcon, which is a bird that kills pigeons. They even make noises and flap their wings to scare the pigeons. They hope that the pigeons will go away before the city becomes the European Capital of Culture in two years.
Pigeons in Liverpool get fat because they eat seeds and insects.
选项 A、True
B、False
C、Not Mentioned
答案B
解析 事实细节题。根据题干中的seeds and insects将本题出处定位于文章第一段最后一句。该句提到，鸽子正常的饮食应该包括种子和昆虫，而利物浦的鸽子在市中心吃的是垃圾食品，所以它们变胖。由此可知，利物浦的鸽子变胖不是因为吃了种子和昆虫，故本题题干所述是错误的。
