繼續雅思上分實驗。這次正確率是10/13,還是挺讓我吃驚的,因為我又沒有完全讀懂!
題型1-填空題
這道題目很簡單,同樣地去原文段落里找就好,最后一個空填錯了是因為我不知道mitigate就是decrease同義詞。
題型2-人物匹配題
這個題目我也不太擅長,這里最坑的就是Ben Novak在原文中有兩個不同段落都出現了。第一次是Ben Novak,第二次是Novak。
23題
23 Reintroducing an extinct species to its original habitat could improve the health of a particular species living there. B Michael Archer
B段內容提到塔斯馬尼亞島上袋狼的回歸有利于袋獾的存活,thylacines對應extinct species,Tasmania對應orginal habitat,devils對應particular species,與Michael Archer 相關,故B。
對應原文:B段:Michael Archer … ‘The return of thylacines to Tasmania could help to ensure that devils are never again subjected to risks of this kind.’
24題
24 It is important to concentrate on the causes of an animal’s extinction. C Beth Shapiro
原來我找不到的原因是因為在F段中也出現了Shapiro說話,而我并沒有注意到,下次還是得注意通讀全篇找人名,短的長的都得看。
24、題干表示關注動物滅絕的原因,F段中提到Shapiro更關注如何利用這一新技術了解當初各物種為什么會滅絕,故C。
對應原文:F段:… Shapiro. She prefers to focus the debate on how this emerging technology could be used to fully understand why various species went extinct in the first place
25題
25 A species brought back from extinction could have an important beneficial impact on the vegetation of its habitat. A Ben Novak
25、由vegetation of its habitat定位到D段,該段提到了棲息地的植物問題,和Novak相關,故A。
對應原文:D段:According to Novak, a hybridised band-tailed pigeon, with the added nesting habits of a passenger pigeon, could, in theory, re-establish that forest disturbance, thereby creating a habitat necessary for a great many other native species to thrive.
26題
26 Our current efforts at preserving biodiversity are insufficient. C Beth Shapiro
我對應到了C段的主旨大意,其實在F段中出現了原文對應: she continues. ‘We know that what we are doing today is not enough, and we have to be willing to take some calculated and measured risks.’
題型3-段落信息匹配題
這次我是先做了后續的題目才來選段落信息匹配題的,而且這次雖然段落數目>題目數量,依然有重復選項的出現。比如第17題,我讀了很多段都找不到,結果一回頭看A自然段開頭就講了。
第14題
14 a reference to how further disappearance of multiple species could be avoided
14、題干表示避免進一步的生物滅絕,F段中future對應further,mass extinctions對應disappearance,prevent對應avoid,故F。
對應原文:F段:how we could use it to make genetic modifications which could prevent mass extinctions in the future.
但我在做的時候其實是F段第一句就讓我選了F:While the prospect of bringing extinct animals back to life might capture imaginations, it is, of course, far easier to try to save an existing species which is merely threatened with extinction.
第15題
15 explanation of a way of reproducing an extinct animal using the DNA of only that species
15、題干表示利用DNA使滅絕動物復活,A段中提到了這一方法,利用克隆技術將已滅絕動物的DNA植入到受精胚胎中,然后孕育出已滅絕的動物,故A。
對應原文:A段:The basic premise involves using cloning technology to turn the DNA of extinct animals into a fertilised embryo, which is carried by the nearest relative still in existence … before being born as a living, breathing animal.
第16題
16 reference to a habitat which has suffered following the extinction of a species
這里我對應成了B段:He points out that in the decades since the thylacine went extinct, there has been a spread in a ’dangerously debilitating‘ facial tumour syndrome which threatens the existence of the Tasmanian devils
其實這句話主語是habitat,16、由habitat suffered定位到D段的ecosystems…suffered,disappearance of this key species對應extinction of a species,故D。
對應原文:D段:Since the disappearance of this key species, ecosystems in the eastern US have suffered…
第17題
17 mention of the exact point at which a particular species became extinct
找來找去找不到,結果發現選擇過的A段就有:Sadly, the passenger pigeons existence came to an end on 1 September 1914,
