M: I really appreciate your filling me in on yesterday’s lecture.
W: No problem. I thought you might want to go over it together. And, anyway, it helps me review, Hope you’re feeling better now.
M: I am. Thanks. So, you said she talked about squid? Sounds a little strange.
W: Well, actually, it was about the evolution of sea life--a continuation from last week. The octopus and the squid descended from earlier creatures with shells. They survived by shedding their shells--somewhere between 200 and 500 million years ago.
M: That’s a pretty long span. of time.
W: I know. That’s what she said, though. To be precise: "Exactly when they emerged is uncertain ... and why is still unexplained."
M: Some squid are really huge. Can you imagine something that big if it still had a shell?
W: Actually, it’s because they lost their shells that they could evolve to a bigger size.
M: Makes sense. But some are really huge. I’ve read about fishermen that caught squid that weighed over a ton. Did she talk about how that happens?
W: Not really. But she did mention some unusual eases. In 1933 in New Zealand they caught a squid.., let’s see here.., it was twenty-two yards long. Its eyes were eighteen inches across. Can you imagine?
M: Reminds me of all those stories of sea monsters.
W: Dr. Simpson thinks there are probably even larger ones that haven’t been found because squid are intelligent and fast---so they can easily get away from humans. Maybe some of those monster stories are true.

选项
A、She has always believed they exist.
B、She heard about them in New Zealand.
C、Stories about them may be based on giant squid.
D、The instructor mentioned them in the lecture.
答案
C
解析
在讨论特大的鱿鱼时,M说这让他想起了关于海怪的故事,W说Dr. Simpons认为还有更大的鱿鱼,因为他们很聪明且游得快,不易被人抓到。可见,他所暗含的意思是,关于海怪的故事可能正是以巨大的鱿鱼为基础的。
