阅读下列短文,从下面每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
The bear is a kind of large strong animal. There are many
kinds of bears. People can find them in North America, South America, Europe,
and Asia. Bears usually have a big body with short legs. They can stand up on
their back legs. Usually bears can climb and swim very well.
Bears'fur is very thick(厚的)and it can keep them warm. The biggest
bear is the polar bear. They live in the snow and ice. You can hardly see polar
bears in the snow because the colour of their body is similar(相似的)to that of the snow. The sun bear is the smallest bear, standing
nearly 70 centimeters at the shoulder and weighing 25-65 kilograms. American
black bears only live in North America. Their fur is usually black, but it is
not always this colour.
Most bears usually sleep for the whole winter. Before they
start to sleep, they eat a lot and become very fat. The mother bear has babies
then. The babies are "blind" when they're born. Because they can't
see anything, they have to do many things with the help of their mother.
Bears are much cleverer than most animals in the world. They
know how to run away from a person and go food by themselves. You may see how
clever they are when they ask for food from people at the zoo. They sit up and
hold out their "hands" as people do. You may have to teach a dog to do
so, but bears can learn this by themselves.
