　　(A) measuring

　　(B) inheriting

　　131. Another strategy of large desert animals is to tolerate the loss of body water to a point that would be fatal for nonadapted animals. The camel can lose up to 30 percent of its body weight as water without harm to itself, whereas human beings die after losing only 12 to 13 percent of their body weight.

　　The word "tolerate" is closest in meaning to which of following?

　　(A) endure

　　(B) replace

　　(C) compensate

　　(D) reduce

　　132. The tolerance of water loss is of obvious advantage in the desert, as animals do not have to remain near a water hole but can obtain food from grazing sparse and far-flung pastures.

　　(A) digest

　　(B) carry

　　(C) save

　　(D) get
