问答题 Every April, along with many other species of birds, the swallow arrives to spend the summer months in northern Europe, Iran and parts of Russia’s Siberia. Here it will breed and raise its young. The swallow is well known for several reasons. Firstly, it is very distinctive, with its forked tail and characteristic acrobatic swooping flight. Secondly, it is very common, and, like its near relative the house martin, lives in close proximity to human habitation, at least in rural areas. 【B1】_________
【正确答案】A
【答案解析】空格前一句提到几个世纪以来,人们一直在观察燕子,并注意到它们的到来和进食模式。空格后一句提到英语国家的一些谚语,如“一燕不成夏”等。故空格处可能与谚语有关。结合选项可知,选项A(在一些国家,这些观察结果已经作为谚语或格言进入语言)与上下文衔接紧密,故答案为A。
