答え: B · To hide from predators and to sneak up on prey
The passage names hiding from predators and approaching prey unseen.
答え: C · She noticed a change in his usual behaviour.
A normally chatty patient who is quiet and not eating has changed in behaviour. The nurse sits down to find out why, which can reveal pain, worry or illness.
答え: C · The reading (taken at 9 a.m.) was normal.
Parentheses enclose extra information that can be removed. In A, “The reading was normal” is still a complete sentence.
