阅读下面的短文,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多

Have you ever moved house before? How did you start your life in a new place? Not long ago,
scientists helped some burrowing owls (穴居猫头鹰) moveintotheir newhomes.
1 They live mainly on large insects, small birds and fish. Unlike most owls, burrowing
owls are often active in the daytime. They build their homes under the ground and love to live
in groups.
In California, the US, there is a kind of burrowing owl called western burrowing owl. In the
past, these owls lived in thegrasslands ofthearea. 2 This drove theowls out of theirhomes.
Some of these birds failed to find new homes. As a result, the number of the western
burrowing owls inCalifornia dropped alot.
3 They soon began trying to move these owls to some protected grasslands. In order
to make the birds feel more “at home”, the scientists thought of some tricks. They used white paint
to make fake droppings (假的粪便) of the owls. 4 These made the birds believe that other
owls had already lived there. Sothey accepted theirnew homes and stayed there.
The scientists went back to the grasslands later to check on the owls.They found that most of
them seemed to liketheirnew homes. Goodluck tothem and wish them ahappy lifethere!
A.The report says they are in danger now.
B. Luckily,scientistsfound theproblem quickly.
C.Wewatched them through cameras very carefully.
D.Later,peoplebegan buildingcities onmany ofthegrasslands.
E.Also, they played therecordings(录音) ofowl calls in theareas.
F.Burrowing owlsare brown owls with longlegs, standingabout 10inches tall.
