In the cause of equal rights, feminists(女权主义者)have had much to complain about. But one striking piece of inequality has been【C1】______: lifespan. In this area, women have the【C2】______hand. All round the world, they live longer than men. Why they should do so is not【C3】______obvious. But the same is true in many other【C4】______From lions to antelope and from sea lions to deer, males, for some reason, simply can’t go the distance.
One theory is that males must【C5】______for female attention. Females are not subject to such pressure. If this theory is correct, the effect will be especially【C6】______in those varieties where males rival for the attention of lots of females. Conversely, it will be reduced or absent where they do not.
That obviously takes its toll directly. But a more delicate effect may also be at work. Most scholars of ageing agree that an animal’s【C7】______lifespan is set by how long it can reasonably expect to escape predation(捕食), disease, accident and damaging【C8】______by others of its kind. If it will be killed quickly anyway, there is not much reason for evolution to divert scarce resources into keeping the machine in excellent condition.

A)aggression F)evident K)spontaneous
B)clumsy G)immediately L)threatening

E)devoted J)species O)upright
【C5】
选项
答案
D
解析
动词辨析题。空格处位于must之后,缺少谓语动词, 并且该词与介词。for连用,因此需要填入不及物动词。该句想表达的句 意为“一种理论认为,雄性为了吸引雌性的注意必须相互——”。结合各选项,只有compete“竞争,争夺”符合题意。compete for“为……而竞争”。
