阅读下面的短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A tropical rain forest is a warm, rainy place. Many trees and plants grow there. Hidden in the thick forest are amazing animals. Here are just a few of them.

Toucans are birds with huge beaks(鸟嘴). They live in the leafy tops of trees. They eat mostly fruit. Why is a toucan’s beak so large? Scientists say it helps the bird lower its body temperature when it’s too hot.
Green iguanas are reptiles. A reptile is an animal that has hard, dry skin. Green iguanas are large, usually between 4 and 6 feet long and weigh about 11 pounds. Their sharp claws(爪子) help them climb trees. They eat leaves, flowers, and fruit.
Jaguars are wild cats. They spend most of their time in small trees and on the forest floor. They are top predators in the rain forest. A predator is an animal that eats other animals for food. Jaguars hunt for food mostly at night. They are good swimmers. Sometimes they catch fish to eat.
Sloths live in tree branches. They are very slow and they don’t move much. They hang upside down using their long claws. To save energy, sloths sleep 15 to 18 hours a day. They look for food the rest of the time. They eat leaves and fruit.
