9、 D.might参考答案：C【命题立意】考查情态动词的用法。句意：-我的新胶底运动鞋？你见过它们。-我怎么会知道？我是你的妹妹，不是你的佣人。should表示说话人对某事不能理解，感到意外、惊异等意思。意为“竟会”、“怎么会”故判断选C。【举一反三】情态动词 should 的三种特殊用法 1）请看下面的句子：I should think it would be better to try it again. 我倒是认为最好再试一试。You are mistaken, I should say. 依我看，你是搞错了。I should advise you not to do that. 我倒是劝

10、你别这样做。从以上例句可以看出：情态动词 should 用于第一人称时可以表示说话人的一种谦逊、客气、委婉的语气。2）should 还可以用在 if 引导的条件从句，表示一件事听起来可能性很小，但也不是完全没有可能。相当于“万一”的意思。从句谓语由 should 加动词原形构成。Ask her to ring me up if you should see her. 你万一见到她，请让她给我打个电话。If you should change your mind, please let us know. 万一你改变主意，请通知我们。此外，Why (or How)+should 结构表示说话人对某

11、事不能理解，感到意外、惊异等意思。意为“竟会”。例如：Why should you be so late today? 你今天怎么来得这么晚？Where is Betty living? 贝蒂住在哪里？How I should know? 我怎么会知识尼？ I dont know why you should think that I did it. 我真不知道你凭什么认为这件是我干的。3）should表推测，暗含很大的可能。如：.Its 4:30. They should be in New York by now.现在是四点半，他们应该到达纽约了。should可在某些从句中，表虚拟语气。如

12、：I suggest that you should stay here as if nothing had happened.我建议你应该待在这儿，好像什么事也没有发生。If he should drop in, give him my message.他若来访，就将我的消息给他。16.

When a caterpillar (毛虫)pretends to be a snake to keep off potential predators (捕食者)，it should probably expect to be treated

29、 like one. This is exactly what happened in Costa Rica earlier this year, when researchers witnessed a hummingbird defending its nest from what it interpreted to be a snake, but was actually a caterpillar, which was feeding on a leaf above the nest.These caterpillars resemble flat dried leaves as ad

30、ults. They can expand the top of their heads to expose a pair of eyespots that discourage potential predators. When disturbed, they raise their head up and move from side to side, increasing the snake-like appearance. In particular they resemble a green parrot snake, known to feed on nesting birds.H

31、ummingbirds have a few styles of flying: visiting flowers, feeding on some tiny insects, chasing each other， and mating territory (领土)display flights. Mobbing (围攻)behavior directed against a threat to their nest is much less common but easy to recognize if you know their flight behaviors.The interac

32、tion of the caterpillar and the humming birds took place in Costa Rica. The comings and goings of the female hummingbird around its nest may have disturbed the caterpillar, causing it to expose its eyespots, which in turn caused the hummingbird to defend its nest using what is referred to as mobbing

33、 behavior by birds.The caterpillar was unable to feed during the 26-minutes of nearly continuous attacks. Most of the birds movements were cautious, but included quick attacks to peck or bite the eyespots.It was difficult for either the bird or caterpillar to withdraw from the standoff (僵局)，with the

34、 hummingbird protecting its nest and the caterpillar just trying to finish its leafy meal. Eventually the caterpillar gave up on eating and crawled away while still under attack, and the hummingbird continued normal nesting behavior.When birds exhibit this mobbing behavior targeting snaked eyes, it

35、often ends with snakes being killed by repeated bites and pecks near the head. As for creatures that imitate snakes to protect themselves from being eaten, can they in turn protect themselves? Because the hummingbird behavior was typical anti-snake behavior, it can be considered replicable (可复制的).Fu

36、ture studies of this behavior can be conducted using a tiny, caterpillar robot. It should be remote controlled, light enough to attach to a leaf or stem, and wireless. With such a robot, researchers could vary the eye-like nature and contrast of spots on the head of the robot to test various respons

37、es of nest-defending birds. A study like this could definitively test the effects of eye-like versus other imitating patterning for exciting the defensive attacks.And, it turns out that the caterpillar feeds on a leaf on the same plant, as far away from the nest as possible!61. What do we know about

38、 caterpillars and hummingbirds from the passage?A. They belong to the same species.B. They are natural enemies of each other.C. They are insects and birds respectively.D. They compete against each other for territory.62. Hummingbirds will show their mobbing behaviors when visitors_.A. are picking fl

39、owers B. are chasing each otherC. interrupt their eating leaves D. set foot on their territories63. Why is neither the hummingbird nor the caterpillar willing to withdraw at first?A. Because the hummingbird is trying to finish its leafy meal.B. Because the caterpillar is protecting the hummingbirds nest.C. Bec
