From the passage we can know that the three underlined sentences have the same meaning as the sentence _.A. he has something wrong with his earsB. he just has an animal in his throatC. he can turn into an animalD. he just cant speakCSome animals have powers that even human beings dont have. Some of the super animals are huge, while some are small. Perhaps you often see some of these animals in your daily life, but you may not know their secrets.Mice cant see well, but their whiskers（胡须）can help them to see. When a mouses whiskers touch something, the mouse gets an idea of whats around it. They usually walk, run or stand on all four legs. But when they eat, fight or look for directions, they stand on their back legs. Bats send out sound waves to find out what is around them. When the sound waves reach something, they return to bats. Bats can “see” what is around them according to how fast the sound waves go back to them. This is the bats secret for hunting and staying away from danger.Snakes can smell with their tongues. When snakes put their tongues in and out of their mouths, they are “smelling” things in the air. Two parts in a snakes mouth can tell smells and pass the information to its brain.Sharks are the best animal hunters. Their brains can sense other animals electric fields. Sharks can find other animals even if they hide in sand or mud. Sharks look huge and dangerous, but out of more than 360 kinds, only a few have attacked people without being troubled.
