63.AccordingtoParagraph1,transparentanimals .
A.stayingroups
B.canbeeasilydamaged
C.appearonlyindeepocean
D.arebeautifulcreatures
【解析】选B。
细节理解题。
根据第一段中的句子Mostofthemareextremelydelicateandcanbedamagedbyasimpletouch可知,大多数透明动物特别脆弱,轻轻接触都会对它们造成伤害,故选B。
64.Theunderlinedword“dead”inParagraph3means .
A.silently B.gradually
C.regularlyD.completely
【解析】选D。
词义猜测题。
由第三段可知,有些动物可以延缓并散射光线,使光线偏离以前的轨道,另一些动物会吸收光线,使其dead止于以前的轨道上。
根据这个逻辑关系dead应为“完全”止于以前的轨道上,故选择D项。

【解析】选C。
推理判断题。
根据第五段中的句子Tobecometransparent,ananimalneedstokeepitsbodyfromabsorbingorscatteringlight可知,一个动物想要变得透明就要避免它的身体散射或吸收光线,因此C项是其中的一个方法,即避免吸收光线,故选C。
66.Thelastparagraphtellsusthatlargertransparentanimals .
A.movemoreslowlyindeepwater
B.staysee-throughevenafterdeath
C.producemoretissuesfortheirsurvival
D.takeeffectiveactiontoreducelightspreading
