As a result of some amazing transformations, they are now helpless on land. If stranded on a beach, they can barely breathe.
With abundant【C6】______ of food, whales grew into the largest creatures that lived,【C7】______ larger than dinosaurs. A blue whale can grow to 100 feet. Its tongue is ten feet thick and heavier than an elephant. Some arteries are big enough for a child to swim【C8】______ .

A whale can【C13】______ to 9 000 pounds of food a day. The world’s biggest creature【C14】______ itself almost entirely on shrimp--like krill smaller than a person’s thumb.
Maternal instincts are also【C15】______ . Because a calf is born underwater, the mother must get it to the surface before it【C16】______ Often another whale will help.

选项
A、born to be dead
B、born dead
C、born to death
D、born died
答案
B

形容词辨义题 。“出生之后就死亡”可以用B项中的born dead来表达,这里的dead是形容词作主语补足语,补充说明句子的主语the calf的情况。其余三个选项中的表达均不正确,可以排除。
