Do you know what a“territory”is？A territory is an area that an animal，usually the male，claims(聲稱)as its own.Only he and his family are welcome there.No other families of the same species are welcome.Your yard
and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome.If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you，you might shout.Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
What is a bird's“territory”？
A．A place where families of other species are not accepted.
B．A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.
C．An area for which birds fight against each other.
D．An area which a bird considers to be its own.
答案 D [根據文中“A territory is an area that an animal，usually the male，claims(聲稱)as its own”對 territory定義，即“territory一般是雄性動物聲稱是自己的地盤的區域”，結合后面的舉例說明，可知territory為“地盤，領地”之意。]
