The females have bigger and heavier bodies since they carry the eggs. The bright colors of the males help to attract the females, and the duller(较暗淡的)colors of the females make them less likely(可能的)to be caught by enemies before they have laid their eggs.Some butterflies hare bright pattern colors on the upper surface of their wings that show when flying, but when they rest on a tree or leaves, they close their wings. On the undersides of their wings there are green and brown marks which look like the tree or leaves. They are then difficult to be seen. The best example of this is the Dead Leaf Butterfly. When its wings are closed, it looks exactly like a dead leaf. There are even marks that look like the holes in a dead leaf. When the butterfly is run after by a bird, it closes its wings and seems to have disappeared completely.Many butterflies have round marks on their wings that look like eyes. The round marks have a useful function(功能). When the butterflies are resting, their wings are closed, and these marks cant be seen. When a bird sees one, and begins to attack it, the butterfly will open its wings. The bird thinks that it sees two eyes staring at it, frightened, and flies away.（1） The female butterflies have bigger and heavier bodies than the males because _ . A . the females carry the eggsB . the females eat moreC . the males are more activeD . the males have smaller wings（2） The duller colors of the female butterflies _ . A . help to fly easilyB . help to attract the malesC . make them look fearful.D . make them harder to be caught（3） The underlined word that in Paragraph 3 refers to _ . A . their wingsB . pattern colorsC . green leavesD . some butterflies（4） When run after by a bird, the Dead Leaf Butterfly _ . A . is frightened and flies away at onceB . opens its eyes and stares at the birdC . closes its wings and seems to have goneD . opens its wings to frighten the bird away（5） The last paragraph mainly tells us _ . A . why the butterfly cannot be seenB . how the butterfly opens its wingsC . what the round marks look likeD . what the function of the round marks is5. （8分） (2016惠安模拟) 根据短文内容，从每小题A、B、C三个选项中选出一个最佳答案。CRock climbing (攀岩) did not become a sport until late in the 1900s.
