Wolves tend to protect their hunting grounds.C. Wolves sometimes have quarrels after howling together.D. Wolves of low rank are encouraged to join in

Researchers are sure that wolves often howl to.A. show their ranks B. find their companions C. express their loneliness4. “Howling. . . is a contagious behaviour” (in the last paragraph)means.A. howling is a signal for hunting B. howling is a way of communicationC. howling often occurs in the morning D. howling spreads from one to another【参考答案】1-4 DCBD
