　　托福阅读词汇题：preposterous

　　【Paragraph 3】Early in his research, Kramer found that caged migratory birds became very restless at about the　time they would normally have begun migration in the wild. Furthermore, he noticed that as they fluttered around in the　cage, they often launched themselves in the direction of their normal migratory route. He then set up experiments with　caged starlings and found that their orientation was, in fact, in the proper migratory direction except when the sky　was overcast, at which times there was no clear direction to their restless movements. Kramer surmised, therefore,　that they were orienting according to the position of the Sun. To test this idea, he blocked their view of the Sun and used　　mirrors to change its apparent position. He found that under these circumstances, the birds oriented with respect to the　new "Sun." They seemed to be using the Sun as a compass to determine direction. At the time, this idea seemed　preposterous. How could a bird navigate by the Sun when some of us lose our way with road maps? Obviously, more　testing was in order.(Orientation and Navigation)
