In the past few decades,remarkable findings have been made in ethology,the studyof animal social behavior.Earlier scientists had【C1】______that nonhuman social life was almosttotally instinctive or fixed by genetics.Much more careful observation has shown that【C2】______variation occurs among the social ties of most species,showing that learning is apart of social life.That is, the statuses are not solely fixed by the genes.【C3】______thelearning that occurs is often at an early age in a process that is called imprinting.Imprinting is clearly not instinctive, but it is not quite like the learning of humans; it is something in between the two.An illustration best【C4】______the nature of imprinting.Once, biologists thought that ducklings followed the mother duck because of instincts.Now we know that, shortly after they hatch, ducklings fix【C5】______any object about the size of a duck and will henceforth follow it.So ducklings may follow a basketball or a briefcase if these are【C6】______for the mother duck at the time when imprinting occurs.Thus, social ties can be considerably【C7】______,even ones that have a considerable base【C8】______by genetics.
Even among the social insects something like imprinting must influence social behavior.For example, biologists once thought bees communicated with others purely【C9】______ in-stinct.But, in examining a "dance" that bees do to indicate the distance and direction of a pollen source, observers found that bees raised in isolation could not communicate effectively.At a higher level, the genetic base seems to be much more for an all-purpose learning rather than the more specific responses of imprinting. Chimpanzees, for instance, generally【C10】______very good mother but Jane Goodall reports that some chimps carry the infant upside down or otherwise fail to nurture the young.
【C4】
选项
A、clarifies
B、classifies
C、defines
D、outlines
答案
A
解析
A项clarifies意为“使清楚,阐明”,如:The government has time and again clarified its position on equal pay for women.(政府已经反复阐明政府对男女同工同酬的立场。)B项classifies意为“分类,使……成为机密”。C项defines意为“下定义,界定”。D项outlines意为“画轮廓,拟大纲”。根据原文的意思:“一个例证很好地阐明了‘印象’的本质”。所以A项clarifies为最佳答案。
