  【试题】

  An endangered species of whale [19] is experiencing a small baby boom of the coast America. The north Atlantic white whale is one of the rarest species on the planet, numbering only about 411. But the center of coast studies said Friday that this area’s survey team spotted a mom with two babies inCape Cod bay a day earlier. That brings the number seen in nearly waters alone this year to 3. That’s big news because the whale population has been falling and no baby whales were seen last year. In all, seven baby whales have been spotted so far this year. [20] The whale population has become endangered due to commercial whaling activities in recent years. This is because they are sometimes hunted for their meat or their skin. Over-hunting could lead to the disappearance of the whale population, possibly causing major problems to the global food chain. [21]The whales give birth off the southeast coast of American in the winter and travel to feeding grounds off the northeast coast in the early spring. Northeast coast is a critically important source of food. The animas often feed close to shore. This provides watches on land with unbeatable views of one of the rarest of marine mammals. It is illegal to get within 1500 feet to the animals without federal research permit, so well watchers are discouraged from the tempting to get to the whales.

  Q19. What do we learn from the passage about the North Atlantic white whale?

  Q20. What has caused the decline of the whale population in recent years?

  Q21. What do the whales travel to the northeast coast of America?

  【答案】

  (见上文划线部分)

  【解析】

  Q19. 从划线部分可以轻松找到答案,符合第一题从开头出的原则。【原词对照】原则可以正常使用。

  Q20. 从due to 这个表原因的词组中可以找到答案。因为商业捕鲸活动,造成鲸鱼数量下降。找到提示词due to就可以。符合材料中要重视【原因】等提示词的原则。

  Q21. 从划线部分可以看出【东北海域是重要食物源头】这个句子,很容易对照出答案。强调词critically 至关重要,提示你这里的信要注意。

  【听力述评】

  符合我们讲过的听力技巧 1 关键词对照;2 重视表示原因的提示词due to等词的出现,等技巧。只要学生可以注意到这些词,选出正确答案不难。
