All round the world, they live longer than men. Why they should do so is not【C3】______obvious.

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.

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. Those resources should, instead, be【C9】______to reproduction. And the more【C10】______the outside world is, the shorter the lifespan should be.
A)aggression F)evident K)spontaneous
B)clumsy G)immediately L)threatening

D)compete I)overlooked N)upper
E)devoted J)species O)upright
【C5】
选项
答案
