findings D The study of archaeology in Southeast Asia 解析 09 本文采用开门见山的说法 教授一开始就道出主题 One of the important aspects of the field of archaeology one of the things that excites me about the field is that seemingly insignificant things can suddenly change the way we think about a culture We are always making new discoveries that have the potential to challenge widely held beliefs 正确答案 C 有争议的新考古发现 7 What excites the professor about the field of archaeology A Established theories can be challenged by new evidence B The technology used in archaeology is always improving C Archaeology deals with basic issues of human societies D Archaeologists often work in interesting parts of the world 解析 09 还是开头的那就句 One of the things that excites me about the field is that seemingly insignificant things can suddenly change the way we think about a culture 正确答案 A 已确立的理论被新证据挑战 8 According to the professor what can scientists learn by examining ancient phytoliths A The nutrients a plant took in B The age of a certain sediment layer C What a plant was used for D What type of plant produced them 解析 1 41 首先在前文提出了一个重要 term phytoliths 并作出了解释 后来开始强调其 重要性 Because different plants produce differently shaped phytoliths scientists can identify the type of plant from ancient remains 正确答案 D 9 What are the implications of the theory that bananas arrived in Africa 5 000 years ago click on 2 answers A Agriculture developed in Africa earlier than previously assumed B Contact between Africa and Asia occurred earlier than previously assumed C People have inhabited Southeast Asia longer than previously assumed D The banana plant is a more ancient plant than was previously assumed 解析 2 09 转折词 But well this discovery had other implications for history 这是一句总起 句 紧接着 教授说 As soon as bananas appear in the archaeological record we know we have contact between Africa and Southeast Asia It would appear now that his contact occurred much earlier than previously thought 2 54 教授首先用语气词 Um 来表示一 个话题点的结束 然后是 The early appearance of bananas also suggests 中的 also 表示 另一个并列重点的开始 that agriculture began in this part of Africa earlier than scientists imagined 正确答案 AB 10 What does the professor consider a weakness of the study on bananas in Africa A It did not produce accurate data B Its results are of little importance C Its conclusions are not supported by other studies D It does not make good use of advanced technology 解析 3 24 教授用 BUT 进行转折 But there are questions about this too 表达对之前的理论 的质疑 并且在 3 36 时 教授提出疑问 If bananas were grown thousands of years ago why don t we see evidence of large populations thriving in the area earlier 我们为什么没 有看到别的证据 3 46 SO 引导一个总结 So we are left with this mystery 4 再次用 BUT 转折词强调 But we are missing other kinds of evidence that would conclusively prove that this is so 正确答案 C 11 Why does the professor say this listen again A To announce her intentions to continue the study herself B To encourage her students to do archaeological research C To discredit the recent research on bananas and phytoliths D To highlight the university s reputation in archaeology 解析 4 04 重复语句 Clearly more research needs to be done Perhaps by some new scholars from this university At least give it some thought 明显的是 需要做更多的研究 可能是 这所大学的新学者 教授这句话的意思是暗示学生可以考虑一下这方面的研究 正确答案 B Lecture 1 梗概梗概 教授教授开篇提出本讲座话题 新发现挑战已建立的理论 开篇提出本讲座话题 新发现挑战已建立的理论 然后然后以以香蕉何时香蕉何时引入非洲引入非洲为例为例来来详谈详谈 原本原本 理论认为香蕉是在理论认为香蕉是在 2000 年前年前由由东南亚东南亚引入非洲的 引入非洲的 但是在但是在乌干达的新发现表示香蕉很乌干达的新发现表示香蕉很可能是可能是 5000 年前年前引入的 引入的 之后之后教授开始教授开始细谈细谈这个新发现是如何得到的 提到了一个专业术语 这个新发现是如何得到的 提到了一个专业术语 phytoliths 并详并详 细解释如何通过细解释如何通过此物此物证明年龄 证明年龄 接着接着 教授 教授对对这个这个新新理论理论提出辩证性质疑 即提出辩证性质疑 即除此之外除此之外没有别的证没有别的证 据据 所以 所以最后最后做了一个做了一个开放性的结尾并暗示学生可以去开放性的结尾并暗示学生可以去作作相关研究 相关研究 Lecture 2 12 What is the lecture mainly about A Ways species in an ecosystem affect each other s population size B How the carrying capacity of an ecosystem is determined C A new theory regarding cycles in predator and prey population sizes D How researchers monitor the population size of animal species in the wild 解析 12 学生提出一个问题 I d like to ask about something I read in an article online about how the population size of some animal species can affect other animal species and how other environmental factors come into play too 动物之间互相影响彼此的数量 以及其他 的环境因素也加入这种影响 教授的回答是 Right Relationships between animal species in a given ecosystem can get pretty complex Because in addition to predator prey relationship there are other variables that affect population size 正确答案 A 13 Why does the professor mention nonnative species A To show that some species cannot be transplanted easily to new environments B To give an example of rapid population growth that is not followed by decline C To emphasize that species with rapidly growing populations harm ecosystem D To introduce a study on the changing population size of certain species 解析 50 在女生提出一个 boom and bust cycle 的概念之后 教授进行了一下补充 Let s say there was a species that had access to plenty of food and ideal conditions Under those circumstances its population would increase at an ever accelerating pace 在男生发出感叹 之后 她继续解释 it doesn t usually happen 1 18 But we do occasionally see exponential growth in nonnative species when they are transplanted into a new environment 提出nonnative speices 就是为了给出一个例子来说明这种不同寻常的指数 增长并不会跟随着减少 正确答案 B 14 What point does the professor make when she discusses the carrying capacity of an ecosystem A The availability of food is more important for species than the availability of space B The amount of environmental resistance in an ecosystem does not change over time C Environmental resistance controls the population size of species in an ecosystem D The population size of most species increases at a constant rate 解析 1 30 教授用 BUT 转折回到男生说的观点 But for most species most of the time resources are finite There s only so much available which leads me to my point Every ecosystem has what we call a carrying capacity 教授开始阐述自己的观点 即生态环境的 承载容量是会限制物种的最大数量的 2 06 There are always factors that limit population growth This is called environmental resistance 这些限制因素就成为 环境抵 抗因素 正确答案 C 15 How did the researchers test the links between acorns white footed mice and gypsy moths in a forest A They supplied an additional food source for gypsy moths B They introduced gypsy moths to areas where there had been none C They cleared oak trees from some areas where both animal species lived D They manipulated the numbers of mice and acorns in some areas 解析 3 48 男生对教授说的例子提出疑问 How can we know that for sure It seems like a big jump from more acorns to fewer gypsy moths 于是教授解释 We can know for sure because in this oak forest the researchers decided to test the links between acorns and the two animal species In some parts of the forest they had volunteers drop a large number of extra acorns on the forest floor And in another section of the forest they remove a number of white footed mice 正确答案 D 16 What does the professor say can lead to a change in the gypsy moth population in a forest click on 2 answers A An increase in the number of tree species in a forest B An increase in the number of acorns produced by oak trees C A decrease in the population of white footed mice D A decrease in oak tree leaves caused by gypsy moth caterpillars 解析 4 13 In the forest areas where extra acorns had been dropped the gypsy moth population soon went into a significant decline But in the section of the forest where the white footed mice had been removed the gypsy moth population exploded 当橡子少了 舞毒蛾也会极 大减少 但是当白脚鼠被移除 舞毒蛾数量会膨胀 也就是说 橡子和白脚鼠的数量变 化会引发舞毒蛾的数量的变化 正确答案 BC 17 What can be inferred about the professor when she says this listen again A She does not know the answer to the student s question B She wants to correct a statement she made earlier C She thinks the term the student used is incorrect D She would like to redirect the discussion 解析 50 重复句子 OK Well hold on a second First I want to go over some key concepts 在女 生提出一个概念之后 教授说 等一下 首先我想重新复习一些重要概念 言外之意是 想重新引导这次讨论 正确答案 D Lecture 2 梗概梗概 本本讲座是由学生提出一个问题讲座是由学生提出一个问题即生态系即生态系统中动物统中动物之间互相影响数量 环境因素也会影响数量 教授之间互相影响数量 环境因素也会影响数量 教授 开始开始解答 确实解答 确实有有很多环境因素会影响动物很多环境因素会影响动物的的数量 数量 并提出并提出概念 环境承载能力概念 环境承载能力以及以及环境的抵抗因环境的抵抗因 素素等等限制物种数量限制物种数量失控失控的概念的概念 然后然后给出给出了一个例子 了一个例子 橡树森林橡树森林里的橡子里的橡子 白脚鼠以及舞毒蛾白脚鼠以及舞毒蛾之间之间 的的牵制牵制问题问题 详述 详述了这个例子来解释了这个例子来解释生态系统中的生态系统中的因素对物种数量的影响 因素对物种数量的影响 Conversation 2 1 What do the speakers mainly discuss click on 2 answers A How the man should narrow the focus of his paper B Whether a focus on wood harvesting is an appropriate topic for the man s paper C Why the man became interested in wood harvesting techniques D Why different ancient cultures used different wood harvesting techniques 解析 10 对话以寒暄开始 教授问学生 field trip to the Nature Centre 如何 学生回答非常好 并引出本次谈话的重要话题 38 And actually yesterday s trip got me thinking about my research paper for your class 1 40 That s what I d like to write about I want to look at ancient methods of wood harvesting that didn t result in the destruction of the whole forest 后面的整个对话都是教授对学生能否选择这个话题提出的一些建议 直到对话最后 教 授说 Then we can talk about whether or not your topic will work 所以 整个对话是在讨 论选题是否可行以及为何对选题感兴趣 正确答案 BC 2 Why does the man mention pursuing an advanced degree in forestry A To explain why his biology class interests him so much B To ask the professor to write a letter of recommendation for him C To get the professor s opinion on his choice of careers D To indicate he is not interested in anthropology 解析 31 I am interested in getting an advanced degree in forestry after I graduate from here So I love all this stuff 因为他对林业学位很感兴趣 所以很喜欢生物类的东西 正确答案 A 3 What had the man assumed about human impact on the environment A That human impact on the environment is difficult to measure B That humans have only recently had an impact on the environment C That human impact on the environment is always harmful D That human impact on the environment cannot be avoided 解析 50 And I just assumed that the human impact on the environment was always destructive 正确答案 C 4 According to the professor what did researchers find at an archaeological site in Turkey A Remains of pistachios and almonds in ancient vessels B Tools indicating that there was farming in the region C Evidence that people cut down trees for use as fuel D Evidence that people harvested branches from trees 解析 1 14 I was just reading an article about an archaeological site in Turkey where scientists found evidence that ancient people had been harvesting the branches from pistachio and almond trees 教授提到一篇文章关于古土耳其的考古遗址中研究者发现古代人们砍伐 树木的树枝的证据 正确答案 D 5 What opinion does the professor express when she says this listen again A That the topic is too controversial to be the focus of the man s paper B That too many papers have already been written on the topic C That the topic does not seem to meet the requirements of the assignment D That there has not yet been any research published on the topic 解析 1 47 重复内容 Hmm so you want to write your entire paper on wood harvesting 这 句话中教授的语气是解题重点 从教授的语气中可以提出惊讶和质疑 言外之意就是整 篇论文写这个题目是不合适的 正确答案 C Conversation 2 梗概梗概 对话对话以教授与学生的寒暄开始 问学生以教授与学生的寒暄开始 问学生实地考察实地考察感觉如何 学生感觉如何 学生感觉感觉非常好 并且提出重点非常好 并且提出重点 想想写写 古代古代砍树的方法不会对森林有负面影响的砍树的方法不会对森林有负面影响的话题话题 教授教授对此产生了一些疑虑 并给出一些建议 对此产生了一些疑虑 并给出一些建议 让让学学 生先去找找材料 再生先去找找材料 再来来讨论是否讨论是否合适合适 Lecture 3 6 What is the lecture mainly about A The environmental effects of heap roasting B The reforestation efforts in the Copper Basin C The process of mining and producing copper D Damages caused during an attempt to clean up industrial waste 解析 1 40 But anyway let s analyze the problem It wasn t the mining itself that caused such massive destruction It was what happened after the copper ore was extracted from the mines It was a process called heap roasting 教授从一开始先介绍讲座要涉及的重要话题 Copper Basin 然后介绍了一些 Copper Basin 的来源 然后用转折词 BUT 来引出这次讲 座的主题 正确答案 A 7 What is the professor s opinion about the effort to reclaim the land in the Copper Basin A The techniques and materials used for the cleanup were probably outdated B Some attempts to clean up the Copper Basin have made the problems worse C It is not surprising that cleaning up the area has been extremely difficult D The cleanup has taken longer than necessary 解析 1 05 Well actually those efforts are still ongoing It s been a long and tedious process In fact it was many years before any results were seen Copper mining had gone on there for more than 90 years The damage couldn t be reversed overnight 教授用 well 这个语气助 词开始讲述他的观点 这个铜矿进行了 90 多年 造成的破坏是不可能一夜之间就被扭 转的 正确答案 C 8 What does the professor imply when he mentions an Olympic whitewater kayaking competition A That many people are unaware of the environmental problems in the Copper Basin B That a successful reclamation of the Copper Basin may be possible C That some activities in the Copper Basin must go on despite the pollution D That the Olympic competition should have been held in a different location 解析 1 24 Although I should mention that by 1996 the water in one of the rivers flowing through the basin was clean enough that it was the site of the Olympic whitewater kayaking competition And that river is still used now for recreation 教授在前面谈到这个 Copper Basin 是很难修复的 然后他用 though 这个转折词表示态度的转变 他提到有非常干净 的水可以用做皮艇漂流比赛 其意图在于表达这个地方还是有救的 正确答案 B 9 According to the lecture why was heap roasting used in the producing of copper A To make copper ore easier to transport B To make copper ore safe for workers to handle C To transform copper ore into fuel D To remove impurities from copper ore 解析 1 45 Copper ore contains sulfur And heap roasting was a way to burn away the sulfur in the copper so they d be left with something closer to pure copper 这个过程就是去除铜当 中的杂质 正确答案 D 10 What factors led to the disappearance of trees in the Copper Basin click on 2 answers A Mines were dug under areas where trees were growing B Loose soil led to trees being washed into the rivers C Trees growing near the mines were cut and used as fuel D Clouds of sulfur smoke killed trees in the area 解析 2 20 Well let s look at the results 这句是主旨句 引出后面的分论点 First So they cut down trees for fuel And it was accelerated by the smoke from the burning ore Big clouds of sulfuric smoke which was toxic to the trees formed over the area Trees that hadn t been cut for fuel were killed by the fumes 正确答案 CD 11 What resulted from the lack of trees near the copper mining operation A It became difficult to provide housing for all the workers B Rivers became filled with toxic soil C Coal and other fuel had to be transported into the area D The heap roasting process had to be completed far from the mines 解析 3 38 And it wasn t just the land and the air it was the water too What do you think happen to the rivers Well there are no trees to absorb the rain and there was a lot of rain So the rain eroded the soil and swept it int
