22、 So, the English thought the bird as a Turkish chicken.When Europeans came to North America, they saw a bird that looked like the guinea fowl. This bird was native to the North American continent.

28、可知美国人喜欢在感恩节吃火鸡。故选C。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段第一句There is an African bird called the guinea fowl(珍珠鸡).（有一种非洲鸟叫珍珠鸡。）可知珍珠鸡是来自非洲。故选B。【10题详解】词义猜测题。根据下文a name that also connects the bird to India.
