A New Zealand saddleback learns the language of another saddleback in order to ______.
A.share information about food with it
B.beat it in the competition for a spouse
C.use the dialect to control the territory it just moves into
D.show that it has the ability to acquire different dialects
参考答案
正确答案:C
解析:由“Communication Ability”部分第三段中的“While they wander around the forest,they learn the different dialect songs...As soon as a territory-owning male dies,a new young male may move in to take over within 10 minutes.He will immediately start singing the dialect of the territory he is in.”可知年轻的雄鸟学习不同的“方言”并不是为了和该领地的鸟交流关于食物的信息,而是为了在该领地的雄鸟死去后可以占据该领地,用“方言”统领其他鸟。因此本题的正确答案为C项。
