Question

predator n.食肉动物；掠夺者；（动物的）捕食性天敌 (1) 幼小的鸟易受食肉动物伤害。(2) 顾名思义，北极熊的出产地为北极，是世界上体积最巨型的陆上食肉动物。(3) 而对罗马尼亚人而言，俄国人则是掠夺者。(4) 狮子是大自然中的掠夺者。 The word predator started out referring to insects that ate other insects, but has grown to include any animal that eats another animal. We humans like to think of ourselves as the top of the food chain, but scary movies love to disagree, like in the 1987 movie Predator, where creepy aliens try to kill and eat us. Predators don't have to kill and eat you, though; they can also just take your stuff. It's from the Latin word praedator which means "plunderer," which is more like something a pirate would do.
