Animal’s "Sixth Sense"
A tsunami was triggered by an earthquake in the Indian Ocean in December, 2004. It killed tens of thousands of people in Asia and East Africa. Wild animals, 【C1】______, seem to have escaped that terrible tsunami. This phenomenon adds weight to notions that they possess a " sixth sense "for【C2】______, experts said.
Sri Lankan wildlife officials have said the giant waves that killed over 24, 000 people along the Indian Ocean island’s coast clearly【C3】______wild beasts, with no dead animals found.
"No elephants are dead, not【C4】______a dead rabbit.I think animals can【C5】______disaster. They have a sixth sense. They know when things are happening, "H. D. Ratnayake, deputy director of Sri Lanka’s Wildlife Department, said about one month after the tsunami attack. The【C6】______ washed floodwaters up to 2 miles inland at Yala National Park in the ravaged southeast, Sri Lanka’s biggest wildlife【C7】______and home to hundreds of wild elephants and several leopards.
"There has been a lot of apparent evidence about dogs barking or birds migrating【C8】______volcanic eruptions or earthquakes. But it has not been proven, "said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behavior【C9】______at Johannesburg Zoo.
"There have been no【C10】______studies because you can’t really test it in a lab or field setting, "he told Reuters. Other authorities concurred with this【C11】______.
"Wildlife seem to be able to pick up certain【C12】______, especially birds. . . there are many reports of birds detecting impending disasters, " said Clive Walker, who has written several books on African wildlife.
Animals certainly【C13】______on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger such as predators.
The notion of an animal" sixth sense"—or【C14】______other mythical power—is an enduring one which the evidence on Sri Lanka’s ravaged coast is likely to add to.
The Romans saw owls【C15】______omens of impending disaster and many ancient cultures viewed elephants as sacred animals endowed with special powers or attributes.
【C11】
选项
A、modification
B、detection
C、assessment
D、value
答案

concurred with(同意)支配的宾语应该是view,opinion,judgment这一类词。前面句子说的是某位科学家指出无法验证动物预见灾难的第六感觉的困难所在,其他专家也同意这一看法,所以选assessment是正确的。
