31、r many animals, an island can be a great place to live. Water all around keeps big predators away. But islands have their own dangers. Food and water are limited. A storm or volcano can easily wipe out a whole population or change the land in big ways. If a predator (like cats or rats) does arrive,

32、theres no escape. These challenges can cause island animals to evolve (进化) quite differently from their mainland ancestors (祖先). So, islands around the world are home to rare species found nowhere else. The Galpagos are a group of small volcanic islands in the Pacific Ocean, 600 miles (966km) west o

33、f Ecuador. When these islands first erupted (喷发) from the sea, they were empty of life. Over time, plant seeds blew or drifted there. Birds arrived, bringing more seeds. Tortoises and iguanas (鬣蜥）floated over on logs. When scientist Charles Darwin visited the Galpagos in 1835, he noticed something i

34、nteresting. Many of the islands had similar animals - iguanas, land tortoises, small birds. But these animals were a bit different on each island. On one island, birds called finches had long, narrow beaks -right for catching bugs. But on the next island, the finches had short, strong beaks. That is

35、land had more seeds, and fewer bugs. Each type of finch had a beak that matched the most common food on its island. He found similar differences in1 the tortoises and iguanas. After thinking about this for many years, Darwins observations led him to a startling new idea. He realized that each family

36、 of animals probably shared a common ancestor - the original birds or turtles who flew or drifted there. Gradually, as they spread to different islands, the young with traits that best suited the food on that island did better. But since each island was different, the birds or turtles on each island

37、 evolved slightly different traits. He called this idea “natural selection”. Darwins idea explained more than just the Galpagos. It also explains why islands are so often home to unusual animals. Islands separate animals from others of their kind and present them with new challenges. Those animals t

38、hat do best on an island many not be the same ones who did best on the mainland. So over time, they become different. 34. The writing purpose of this passage is _.A. to introduce the form of the GalpagosB. to tell a story about Charles DarwinC. to explain the importance of the environmentD. to disco
