劍橋雅思16 Test1 Part4聽力答案解析

第31題答案：spice(s)

對應(yīng)原文：Then in the year 1507 the first Portuguese ships stopped at the island.The sailors were carrying spices back to Europe

答案解析：聽到1507和Portuguese意識到答案即將到來，空前詞transporting與錄音中carrying同義替換，根據(jù)短語修飾關(guān)系，鎖定spices。

第32題答案：colony/settlement

對應(yīng)原文：However,in 1638 the Dutch arrived and set up a colony there.

答案解析：1638這一年份提示大家答案即將到來，空前詞established與錄音中set up同義替換，根據(jù)修飾關(guān)系，確定colony（殖民地）為答案。

第33題答案：fat

對應(yīng)原文：The best-known picture is a Dutch painting in which the bird appears to be extremely fat

答案解析：Dutch painting提示大家答案即將到來，空前詞very與extremely同義替換，根據(jù)副詞與形容詞的修飾關(guān)系確定fat為正確答案。

第34題答案：head

對應(yīng)原文：so only one example of soft tissue from the dodo survives,a dodo head

答案解析：soft tissue提示大家答案即將到來，雖然空前詞dried并沒有跟答案一起出現(xiàn)，但從題干中可以推測出空上應(yīng)該填某一身體部位，由此鎖定head。

第35題答案：movement

對應(yīng)原文：scientists now believe the bird’s strong knee joints would have made it capable of movement which was not slow,but actually quite fast.

答案解析：now與recent的對應(yīng)提示答案即將到來。錄音采用雅思語序顛倒的手法，將空前提示詞rapid的同義替換（not slow,quite fast）放在了答案之后，稍微有些考驗大家的短期記憶能力。

第36題答案：balance/balancing

對應(yīng)原文：dodo’s small wings wouldn’t have allowed it to leave the ground,but the scientists suggest that these were probably employed for balance

答案解析：聽到small wings意識到答案即將到來，maintain雖然在錄音中沒有明顯對應(yīng)，但根據(jù)詞性和句義還是比較容易鎖定balance的。

第37題答案：brain

對應(yīng)原文：which suggested the bird’s brain was not small,but average in size.

答案解析：通過前文的another group of scientists確定36題已經(jīng)結(jié)束，錄音進行到了37題。原文中的句子結(jié)構(gòu)并沒有什么太大改變，只要鎖定句子，就很容易找到brain。

第38題答案：smell

對應(yīng)原文：one sense which was particularly well-developed was that of smell

答案解析：sense提示大家答案即將到來，只有smell一詞填上去符合句義，由此鎖定答案。

第39題答案：rats

對應(yīng)原文：but the ships also brought another type of creature–rats,which came to land from the ships and rapidly overran the island.

答案解析：從題干可以推測出空上應(yīng)該填某種具體的動物。結(jié)合上下文只有rats符合要求。

第40題答案：forest

對應(yīng)原文：but the introduction of agriculture.This meant that the forest that had once covered all the island,and that had provided a perfect home for the dodo,was cut down

答案解析：agriculture與farming的對應(yīng)提示大家答案即將到來。錄音中的名詞只有forest填上去語義合適，由此確定它為正確答案。
