Question

nocturnal adj.在夜间的；（指生物）夜间活动的 (1) 星星是夜间的景观。(2) 阿里陪着他作这次夜间视察。(3) 夜间活动的动物在夜间猎食。(4) 榛睡鼠是一种在夜间活动的胆小动物。 The adjective nocturnal comes from the Late Latin nocturnalis, which means “belonging to the night." You've probably heard of nocturnal animals, like bats and fireflies, who sleep during the day and come out to play when the sun goes down. The opposite of nocturnal is diurnal, meaning active during the daytime — but you probably won't be using that word much unless you're a zoologist.
