(单选题)
From the text, we know the fact that ______.
A.a redwood can offer shelter for other plants
B.a redwood will be protected once discovered
C.a redwood will live without water for 2 weeks
D.a redwood can form a crown with falling branches
参考答案:B
参考解析:
细节理解题。A项错误,文中没有说到红木给其他植物提供庇护所;B项正确,根据第一段最后一句“Biologists and tree experts keep its exact location a secret in order to protect the ecosystem around the tree.”可得出答案;C项错误,根据第三段第四句“However, coastal redwoods have another way to get water; they pull it directly from the air into their branches.”可知,红木还有别的方法来获取水分;D项错误,根据第二段第二、三句“Redwood branches begin 100 feet or more above the ground in an adult tree. The area where they start, called the crown”和第四段最后一句“The deal places become gardens where new plants emerge.”可知,大树枝枯萎了,烂了,那一块就会成为类似土壤的环境,富含矿物质,从而生成新的植物,这些植物生长起来的地方就叫做树冠,而不是D项中的falling branches。故选B。
