(单选题)

Which of the following best explains “redirects” underlined in the last paragraph but one?

A.Transforms

B.Delivers

C.Instructs

D.Consumes

参考答案：B

参考解析：

词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段前两句“Biologists have observed that other plants grow in the dead parts of tree. When a large branch dies, the tree simply redirects its energy to new growth in other areas.”可知，生物学家观察到其他植物生长在树的死亡部位。当一根大树枝枯死时，这棵树只是把它的能量转移到其他地方上。transform意为“使改变形态，使改变外观，使改观”；B项意为“传递，递送，运载”；C项意为“命令，吩咐”；D项意为“消耗”。根据句意和选项的含义可确定B项正确。故选B。
