劍橋雅思6 G類TestB Section3閱讀答案解析
第28題答案:J
對應(yīng)原文:J段:MacCready pointed out its similarity to sailplanes,
答案解析:文章的大多數(shù)內(nèi)容都在描述翼龍,只有J段提到了飛機(jī)。其中its對應(yīng)pterosaurs,similarity為原詞,而sailplanes則對應(yīng)mechanical flight,由此確定其為正確答案。
第29題答案:D
對應(yīng)原文:D段:It was not until 1791 that the great French anatomist Georges Cuvier deduced that the animal was in fact a flying reptile
答案解析:前文雖然也提到了翼龍的種類歸屬,但只有D段說明了這一歸類是怎么來的,對應(yīng)題干中的idetification和actually was,由此確定其為正確答案。
第30題答案:F
對應(yīng)原文:F段:how pterosaurs learnt to fly remains a matter for disagreement.
答案解析:F段開頭就提到,翼龍如何學(xué)會的飛行仍然有很大的爭論。隨后的內(nèi)容給出了兩種具體的理論。由此確定其為正確答案。
第31題答案:K
對應(yīng)原文:K段:At the end of the Cretaceous period 65 million years ago,a meteorite or comet slammed into the Earth.That calamity–and other events–wiped out roughly three quarters of all species,including all pterosaurs and dinosaurs
答案解析:K段提到,6500萬年前,一顆彗星撞擊地球,毀滅了四分之三的物種,包括所有的翼龍和恐龍。即地球上動物大面積消失的原因,由此確定其為正確答案。
第32題答案:A
對應(yīng)原文:A段:Uncontested in the air,pterosaurs colonised all continents
答案解析:A段最后一句提到,翼龍?jiān)诳罩袥]有任何競爭對手,擴(kuò)張到所有大陸。其中colonised對應(yīng)existed,all continents對應(yīng)all over the world,由此確定其為正確答案。
第33題答案:E
對應(yīng)原文:E段:Unlike earlier fossils,this new find near the Bavarian town of Solnhofen contained delicate wing impressions,establishing definitely that the extinct reptile was capable of flight.
答案解析:E段第二句話提到,不像之前的化石,新的發(fā)現(xiàn)包括清晰的翅膀,讓人們確定這一滅絕的爬行動物可以飛行。其中unlike earlier fossils對應(yīng)the first,delicate wing impressions對應(yīng)clear proof,flight對應(yīng)fly,由此確定其為正確答案。
第34題答案:G
對應(yīng)原文:G段:capable of catching fish over open water…Under a microscope,several fish scales,can be seen in the abdomen of the specimen-the remains of the pterosaur’s last meal.
答案解析:G段中間提到,翼龍可以從空中捕魚。最后一句又說到,從標(biāo)本的肚子里發(fā)現(xiàn)了魚鱗。前者對應(yīng)hunted their food from the air,后者對應(yīng)concrete evidence,由此確定G為正確答案。
第35題答案:C
對應(yīng)原文:G段:‘It’s very difficult to say how pterosaurs changed over time because the earliest fossils we have are of pterosaurs whose fourth finger has already transformed into a wing,’says Fabio dalla Vecchia
答案解析:G段第一句就提到,“目前發(fā)現(xiàn)的最早的翼龍化石中,第四根手指已經(jīng)進(jìn)化成了翅膀,因此很難斷定翼龍是如何隨著時間而變化的”,其中difficult對應(yīng)difficulty,changed對應(yīng)evolved,后面的描述則對應(yīng)缺乏證據(jù),由此確定C選項(xiàng)Fabio dalla Vecchia為正確答案。
第36題答案:A
對應(yīng)原文:D段:Cosimo Alessandro Collini,the first natural historian to study the fossil and describe it,was unable to classify it.
答案解析:D段開頭提到,第一位研究化石并且描述它的自然歷史學(xué)家Cosimo Alessandro Collini未能對其進(jìn)行分類。其中unable對應(yīng)failed,classify對應(yīng)interpret,fossil對應(yīng)evidence,由此確定A為正確答案。
第37題答案:B
對應(yīng)原文:D段:It was not until 1791 that the great French anatomist Georges Cuvier deduced that the animal was in fact a flying reptile,whose fourth finger supported a wing.
答案解析:第一只翼龍是由法國解剖學(xué)者Georges Cuvier命名的,由此確定B為正確答案。
第38題答案:D
對應(yīng)原文:I段:’Unlike smaller pterosaurs,it could use natural currents to stay in the air without having to move its wings continuously,’said Paul MacCready
答案解析:Paul Maccready提出,不像小的翼龍那樣,它可以利用自然氣流停留在空中,而不必總是扇動翅膀。其中natural currents對應(yīng)environment,由此確定D為正確答案。
第39題答案:(over)a thousand
對應(yīng)原文:E段:Even though over a thousand pterosaur specimens are known today
答案解析:這道題不太好定位。不過根據(jù)題干很容易猜到空上應(yīng)該填具體的數(shù)字,由此鎖定答案為over a thousand。
第40題答案:11 meters
對應(yīng)原文:H段:the planes exhibited nearby.This pterosaur had wings over 11 metres wide
答案解析:與Quetzalcoathus相關(guān)的內(nèi)容主要集中在H段和I段。仔細(xì)尋找之后很容易發(fā)現(xiàn)H段最后提到這種翼龍翼展11米,由此確定答案。
