【单选题】 While the male bird was dancing______.
A．he showed off his tail feathers
B．he shook leaves off the tree
C．he threw away some feathers
D．he cried more frequently

网考网参考答案：D
网考网解析：
[解析] 首先排除选项B、C，因为它们不符合文中事实。A项也不正确，因为由末段"the bird lowered his head and throwing his fine tail feather over his back,... a shaking flame of color"说明此时"show off his tail feathers"是为了"making his loud love cries"，故排除A。 查看试题解析出处>>
