问题 The nocturnal habits and mournful cries of owls have made them objects of superstition for some people.

选项 A、peculiar
B、obscure
C、frightful
D、sorrowful

答案D

解析这句话的意思是：由于猫头鹰的夜间捕食习惯和——叫声，使它们成为一些人的迷信对象。在给出的选项中，peculiar“奇怪的，特殊的”；obscure"晦暗的，难解的"；frightful“可怕的，讨厌的”；sorrowful“悲伤的，悲哀的”。根据常识，猫头鹰是受歧视的，有句老话说：夜猫子进宅，凶多吉少。还有一些相关的迷信说法，如猫头鹰出现的地方，一定会与死亡、悲伤、晦气联系在一起。因此，这道题中划线部分词语意思应与D项一致。正确答案是D。
