    真題回顧
    Dinosaurs and Parental Care(重復(fù)15年2月1日考題)
    Paragraph 1
    From fossil evidence alone the question of whether or notdinosaurs cared for their young is very difficult to answer. ■Because behaviorsare not preserved in the fossil record, we can only make inferences fromindirect evidence. ■Parental care can be divided into two types of behavior:prehatching (building nests and incubating eggs—for example, sitting on top ofthem so as to warm the eggs and encourage hatching) and posthatching (feedingthe young and guarding the nests).  ■Most of our evidence comes fromalleged dinosaur rookeries (places where nests are built). ■Several havebeen excavated in eastern Montana, where a large concentration of dinosaurnests was found at a place now called Egg Mountain. Most of these probablybelonged to the hadrosaur Maiasaura. Preserved in these nests are the bones ofbaby dinosaurs. The finds at Egg Mountain and other sites around the worlddocument that dinosaurs laid their eggs in nests.
    Look at the four squares [■] that indicate where thefollowing sentence can be added to the passage.
    Evidence of the former is easier to find than that of the latter.
    答案:C
