Skin pigmentation, which is what gives skin its colour, can protect against sunburn and skin cancer.When animals live in colder parts of the world, they dont need it as much t
35、o survive.Light-coloured skin also helps animals stay warmer because it reduces heat loss, which is useful if youre in a colder climate. For most animals, the colour of their fur or other body covering has generally developed as camouflage.That allows animals to mix into the background and avoid bei
36、ng eaten, or for predators (捕食者) to remain hidden during hunting.One example is the sandy-coloured coat of the desert fennec fox, which uses camouflage for both hunting and hiding.

37、frican wildcat) and the fennec fox, the ears are large compared to their body sizethis helps them hear better because it allows them to sense more sound waves.Naked mole-rats have tiny ears because they need to dig a lot.Big ears would get in the way.The other downside of big ears is that you can lo

42、ly have good hearing. 解析: 细节理解题。 根据第二段中的“In colder climates, skin colour is usually lighter and often pink.”及最后一段中的“Thats why animals that live in really cold places, like the Arctic fox, have quite small ears.”可知,生活在严寒地区的动物的耳朵通常都比较小且颜色较浅。 C This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers (young peopl
