下面一起来了解一下Ocean Biodiversity听力文章的答案解析:
Question 31:
答案:conservation
定位原文:scripts:
The hotspots are significant because they allow us to locate key areas for focusing efforts at conservation.
解题思路:第一个设空处是关于Biodiversity hotspots的,预读题目时候locating targets这个信息非常重要,locate key areas 这个表达在听力原文中重现,后面的focusing efforts at conservation 就是答案关键。
Question 32:
答案:food/foods
定位原文:scripts:
The main thing he’d expected to find was that they had very high concentrations of food, but to his surprise that was only true for four of hotspots – remaining hotspot was quite badly off in that regard.
解题思路:这个部分设空是关于Boris Worm这个人的研究,人名可以帮我们锁定解题区域。设空处是三个关于ocean hotspots 的三个发现, expected to find 就是答案出现的地方了。此题比较简单。
Question 33:
答案:surface
定位原文:scripts:
The water at the surface of the ocean had relatively high temperatures, even when it was cool at greater depths.
解题思路:上文的空填出来之后,后面紧接着就是33题的答案。
Question 34:
答案:oxygen/O2
定位原文:scripts:
Because the also found that the water needed to have enough oxygen in it.
解题思路:和32、33题一样,可以确认答案出现的区域。预读题目,可以知道问的是水里有充足的什么,have enough 后面就是答案。
Question 35:
答案:mammals
定位原文:scripts:
What she was interested in was marine mammals, things like seals.
解题思路:35题问的是Lisa Ballance 这个人的研究。挖空处问的是她的研究内容,听力原文用“was interested in”来锁定答案。
Question 36:
答案:ice
定位原文:scripts:
One thing they found there which stunned other researchers was that there were large numbers of species which live below the ice.
解题思路:36 题问的是发现new ocean species的其中一个居住地,原文的below the ice就是答案,所以空处就是填写ice。
Question 37:
答案:decline/declining/decrease
定位原文:scripts:
Thirdly, they calculate the rate at which the decline of the species is happening.
解题思路:37和38题都属于Global Marine Species Assessment这个组织,37题属于list endangered ocean species 要考虑的因素;38题是问这个组织成立的目的。组织的名字帮助定位答题区域。Thirdly they calculate the rate 出现,37题答案就出来了。
Question 38:
答案:map
定位原文:scripts:
For each one they assess, they use the data they collect on that species to produce a map showing its distribution.
解题思路:部分同上,distribution 出现在原文中,produce a map showing its distribution和题目 make a distribution map 是同义表达。
Question 39:
答案:migration
定位原文:scripts:
We need to create corridors for migration.
解题思路:为了保持海洋多样性的一些建议,corridor是解题关键,for表示目的,可以得知migration是答案。
Question 40:
答案:consumption
定位原文:scripts:
So that only the fish wanted for consumption were caught.
