- under the 36 __________
- near volcanoes on the ocean floor

- population size

下面一起來了解一下Ocean Biodiversity聽力文章的答案解析:
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.
解題思路:第一個設空處是關于Biodiversity hotspots的,預讀題目時候locating targets這個信息非常重要,locate key areas 這個表達在聽力原文中重現,后面的focusing efforts at conservation 就是答案關鍵。
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.
解題思路:這個部分設空是關于Boris Worm這個人的研究,人名可以幫我們鎖定解題區域。設空處是三個關于ocean hotspots 的三個發現, expected to find 就是答案出現的地方了。此題比較簡單。
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.
解題思路:上文的空填出來之后,后面緊接著就是33題的答案。
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.
解題思路:和32、33題一樣,可以確認答案出現的區域。預讀題目,可以知道問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.
解題思路:35題問的是Lisa Ballance 這個人的研究。挖空處問的是她的研究內容,聽力原文用“was interested in”來鎖定答案。
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.
解題思路:36 題問的是發現new ocean species的其中一個居住地,原文的below the ice就是答案,所以空處就是填寫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.
解題思路:37和38題都屬于Global Marine Species Assessment這個組織,37題屬于list endangered ocean species 要考慮的因素;38題是問這個組織成立的目的。組織的名字幫助定位答題區域。Thirdly they calculate the rate 出現,37題答案就出來了。
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.
解題思路:部分同上,distribution 出現在原文中,produce a map showing its distribution和題目 make a distribution map 是同義表達。
Question 39:
答案:migration
定位原文:scripts:
We need to create corridors for migration.
解題思路:為了保持海洋多樣性的一些建議,corridor是解題關鍵,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.
