1.兩河流域蘇美文明與埃及文明之比較
科學(xué)家驚奇的發(fā)現(xiàn),兩種文明可以在同一時間產(chǎn)生。在埃及文化產(chǎn)生時,美索不達米亞文化也同時應(yīng)運而生。
埃及土地肥沃,造成它的獨立致。
美索不達米亞兩河流域,地理環(huán)境特殊,四周沙漠什么的,老被侵略,所以都是一個幫一個幫的,美索不達米亞文化不像埃及文化一樣,美索不達米亞文化沒有留下很多遺產(chǎn)。當(dāng)初美索不達米亞的居民生活好像挺好的,所以一直沒有人提出統(tǒng)一的想法,很久以后才有,可是由于大量的花費在戰(zhàn)爭上什么的,很快就覆滅了。
由于當(dāng)時的環(huán)境條件,那里的人們都用泥土/木頭蓋房子,所以和埃及不一樣,現(xiàn)在我們沒找到什么當(dāng)初留下的建筑物。我們現(xiàn)在還挖出了許多陶器石板,上面刻著文字,只能通過這些推知歷史。后來又變成什么蘇美爾了,這是從外面遷徙過來的民族。
兩河地域的美索布達米婭文明,先是和埃及文明作比較,比較的結(jié)果是他們(美索)由外來入侵,文明不易保存,建筑用的材料也不易保存,考古學(xué)家只能從挖掘出來的文物中研究他們。
后半部分是講蘇美爾人在兩河地區(qū)建立的文明的特點,特別是他們城邦的宗教神祗制度,影響了他們的經(jīng)濟制度(獻納)。大題目是分類題,比較埃及文明和蘇美爾文明 。
開頭,it is astonishing that...兩個地方在同一時間產(chǎn)生了兩種文化,并且互有交流。
(1)astonishing 這個詞是什么意思?我選的 amazing
(2)在西元 XXX 年,尼祿文化和 M 文化同時發(fā)展。對原文這句話的同意改寫。M 地很少出現(xiàn)一個唯一的統(tǒng)治者,即使有,掌權(quán)時間也是很短暫的。地理上容易受外界侵襲,不像埃及那樣,有唯一的統(tǒng)治者。埃及有 divine kingship ,M 地內(nèi)亂外亂一堆,內(nèi)亂和外亂是替換。
(3)內(nèi)亂外侵 are its substitute.考察指代,its substitute 是什么、我選的 devine kingship。即使 M 地這么亂,它的 culture and artistic continuity are remarkable.
(4)那個對 m 地文化的描述不對?我選的:文化和藝術(shù)發(fā)展不連續(xù)。M 地的文字和其他的文化沒有什么聯(lián)系。M 地人沒有埃及那樣對 hereafter 來世的概念。而且 他們的建筑材料是 mud and wood,不持久,雖然在 city of Ur.發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些富人的墳?zāi)埂?br>(5)Ur 城市地點在哪里?前一段末尾說 M 地的什么在兩河交流處。本段說 m 人來自 P 地,在 southern M 地。選項記得三個,egypt, northern M,兩河交匯處。我選的最后一個。
(6)雖然在 city of Ur.發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些富人的墳?zāi)?。這句話的作用?對 M 地的了解只能通過 extration 的東西,上面有 vast XXX。
(7)vast 這個詞的意思 我選的 large number
(8)插入,插入文字:雖然學(xué)者們對 M 地的研究取得了如此成就,我們對 M 地人的生活了解很有限。M 地不同地區(qū)有不同的 god 和 human ruler。human ruler 帶領(lǐng)人們進行祭神的活動。god 不僅呼風(fēng)喚雨,對土地有所有權(quán),而且能夠分配人力資源,還能 XXX。divine 的 XXX 不是 fiction,從 M 地的神身上就能看出來。M 地有 divine socialism,神廟條配人力和莊稼。所以說,雖然writing 是宗教相關(guān)的,我們會發(fā)現(xiàn)神廟的記錄都是和經(jīng)濟和農(nóng)業(yè)相關(guān)的。
(9)對 M 地神的描述哪個不對?我選的,一個神和另一個神打架。
(10)為什么說那個 divineXXX 不是 fiction?答案對應(yīng)原文,記不清楚了。
(11)....a considerable part of harvest... considerable 是什么意思?選表示很多的那個詞。
(12)考察全文主要內(nèi)容的多項選擇。
2.達爾文進化論
1.
達爾文的進化論著重強調(diào)由于環(huán)境變化什么的動植物要經(jīng)過很長時間的進化才形成新物種。但有些人提出短時間內(nèi)物種也能進化。有一種魚,放在下游,還有好多predator,所以這些魚的繁殖速度加快,baby與魚比以前大,質(zhì)量差,畸形多,所以就不會超負(fù)荷。而且長得快。放在上游,并且有很少predator,它們的繁殖速度就慢,而且baby魚不大并且生長速度慢。
說有一種鳥,有的嘴大有的嘴小。最小的就只能吃小的seed/nut。有一段時間干旱,種子大,死了好多鳥,可調(diào)查研究發(fā)現(xiàn),死的鳥是有規(guī)律的。斯的大多是小嘴的鳥。后來天氣恢復(fù)正常之后,發(fā)現(xiàn)那些后代鳥比以前的嘴大了。雨量充沛的話,鳥的嘴又比以前小了。
達爾文的進化論要求很長期才能看出來進化特征,文章舉了兩個例子關(guān)于短期進化實驗:
1。人工干預(yù)的實驗,一種魚類,在深海有很多天敵,淺海天敵較少,把他們放在天敵很多的環(huán)境中讓他們生活,若干年后,這些魚開始生命周期縮短,產(chǎn)卵早,母魚不撫養(yǎng)幼魚。再把他們放回淺海后,由若干年觀察他們,他們產(chǎn)卵比最初減少,但體積增大。
2。自然實驗:一個島上有一種鳥,一次大干旱,很多喙小的鳥滅絕了,因為喙大的鳥能夠更好地攝取食物;后來自然條件恢復(fù),發(fā)現(xiàn)那些鳥的喙又逐漸減小。
2.
動物向大體積進化的理論:大體積生物不靈活,趨向于進化的終結(jié),舉了兩個例子:
1。大象,四肢等身體特征和體積龐大很有關(guān)系
2。鯨魚,靠水支撐體重),與大象同源于一種嚙齒動物,祖先體積小,生活在淺灘,有后肢,后來變成鯨魚。
開頭,達爾文認(rèn)為自然選擇 are too slow for people to witness.
(1)witness 是什么意思,選 observe
(2)為什么達爾文這么認(rèn)為?選自然選擇要進行很長一段時間。R 科學(xué)家那 guppy做試驗。
(3)試驗描述 guppy 總是 grow as quickly as possible to mate,產(chǎn)生 as many offsprings. 早熟的代價是 life span 變短,每個 offspring 也不能得到太多母 guppy 的 engergy。the risk of early death are offset by other risks.說的這一段是什么作用?前一段末尾說了,R put the predications into test.這段是描述試驗,測試猜測。
(4)offset 這個詞的意思?balanced。R 又測試,把 guppy 從捕食者多的地方放到捕食者少的 pool 里養(yǎng),他們相對晚熟,活的更久,每窩產(chǎn)更少的蛋,蛋的個頭比
對比組都大。
(5)對上述內(nèi)容那個說法不對?對,每窩產(chǎn)更多卵。有些自然選擇不需要人的干預(yù)
就能在短時間內(nèi)發(fā)生。
(6)插入,插入內(nèi)容是,在這種情況下,生物學(xué)家只要活的久就能觀察到變化。某地干旱,一對夫婦學(xué)者觀察那里的一種鳥,birds with small beaks only eat small seeds. birds with long beaks could eat large seeds because their beaks are strong enough to break the large seeds.干旱的時候小種子少,嘴短的鳥死了,嘴長的鳥
存活。存活的鳥和第二年的鳥交配,后代的鳥嘴整體變長。雨量又充足的時候,又足夠小種子,這個時候,新出生的鳥的鳥嘴又變短了。
(7)長嘴鳥的優(yōu)勢?打碎種子。
(8)鳥嘴和 guppy 試驗的共同點?好像選的都在相對短的時間發(fā)生,自然選擇人類可以觀察到。
(9)雨量充足的日子鳥嘴又變短了,忘了考的什么題目。
(10)考察全文主要內(nèi)容的多選

1.DIALOGUE ONE
主題:女學(xué)生丟了錢包
內(nèi)容簡介:女生的錢包中里面有她的student id& meal card以及 key等東西,無法回dorm。于是去student service辦id card,遇到staff(口音是黑人)把守,說沒有id card 不能進去,要么出示driving license,要么是有頭像照片的證件,比如passport或者其他。但是女生說,我的wallet丟了,id card沒了,passport也在dorm里面,而沒有id card,dorm不讓進(有題目出現(xiàn),問她為什么拿不到passport)。后來女說這個問題她和dorm負(fù)責(zé)人說過,有email 到這里做說明。staff查了查,果然如此,然后staff又說如果你能正確說出passport 的number,就讓她進去,女學(xué)生從容的說出了number,他說OK,你可以進去了,但是你會受到監(jiān)視。女生說who cares! 女生又說了:她的meal card也掉了。管理員說:你在里面辦ID的時候也可以順便辦了meal card。女生說:你真的是幫了我很大的忙啊! 管理員:if you have some other problems, I am glad to help you。女生說you help! (本句語氣為降調(diào),有問題出現(xiàn),問女生為什么這么說。此題兩個選項為正確選項:1、女生懷疑這個管理員是不是能幫他。2、女生在解決了所有的問題之后如釋重負(fù))
本篇文章要點:
分析:本篇文章屬于對話類文章,涉及的內(nèi)容為學(xué)生的日常生活以及學(xué)習(xí)生活。這類文章的難點在于會出現(xiàn)有些在外國大學(xué)中會出現(xiàn)的一些專有名詞,比如id card, meal card等等,這些名詞是我們在中國大學(xué)中不會看到的,所以需要同學(xué)們事先按照我們的場景分類法對該場景的詞匯進行總結(jié)記憶。另外,本篇文章涉及到了一些關(guān)于句子語氣語調(diào)的解釋,不同的語氣語調(diào)該句話的意思就會產(chǎn)生變化,比如最后一句話you help!。這是一道雙選題,要根據(jù)女生的語氣進行選擇。
常見場景的特有單詞的表達法:student ID, dorm, student service, staff, driving license, director, meal card, check, wallet/purse
語音語調(diào)的考察:If you have some other problems, I am glad to help you. You help! / who cares.
2.LECTURE ONE
主題:神經(jīng)膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞研究
內(nèi)容簡介:教授說早期對人類大腦的研究集中在神經(jīng)細(xì)胞neuron,讓一男生起來回答上節(jié)課的主要內(nèi)容,男生說bioelectricity(生物電) 通過神經(jīng)細(xì)胞傳導(dǎo),通過兩個神經(jīng)細(xì)胞的接觸點傳到下一個細(xì)胞,有趣的是說到這里被教授打斷,說他答得已經(jīng)很完整了(有題目出現(xiàn),問教授打斷他的用意)。glial cells(神經(jīng)膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞)的作用在早期被忽視了,人們認(rèn)為膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞只有支持神經(jīng)細(xì)胞的作用。后來人們發(fā)現(xiàn)膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞也有傳導(dǎo)信息的作用,不是通過生物電,而是化學(xué)物質(zhì)傳導(dǎo)。于是總共有三種傳導(dǎo)方式,神經(jīng)細(xì)胞間,膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞間,神經(jīng)和膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞互相傳導(dǎo)。而且發(fā)現(xiàn)膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞的數(shù)量及其巨大,遠多于神經(jīng)細(xì)胞。同時還可能有修復(fù)神經(jīng)細(xì)胞,決定哪些神經(jīng)長的大。教授又說,膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞可能與智力有關(guān),越多智商越高,但這不確定。教授說對膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞的研究是一個很開闊的領(lǐng)域,建議學(xué)生們可以考慮畢業(yè)后作深入研究(有題目出現(xiàn))。
本篇文章要點:
分析:本篇文章所涉及的正是托福聽力中最難的關(guān)于生物學(xué)方面的知識,所以其中的生詞非常多,比如glial cell等,但是同學(xué)們要注意,凡是托福聽力中涉及到的生詞,都會出現(xiàn)一些解釋原則對其進行解釋說明,比如會出現(xiàn)which means等詞語。
biology 講glial cell(神經(jīng)膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞)。以往人們對神經(jīng)傳導(dǎo)的研究僅限于neuron(神經(jīng)元),也叫nerve cell。神經(jīng)傳導(dǎo)通過electrical communication從一個結(jié)點傳到另一個結(jié)點,神經(jīng)元被認(rèn)為起主要作用,glial cell(神經(jīng)膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞)研究的很少,一直被忽略,被看作help the growth of neurons(有題目出現(xiàn)),起輔助作用。
后來偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)大腦中g(shù)lial cell(神經(jīng)膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞)比neuron(神經(jīng)細(xì)胞)的數(shù)目多很多,glial cell(神經(jīng)膠質(zhì)細(xì)胞)引起了科學(xué)家的重視,開始研究它究竟起什么作用(有題目出現(xiàn),問glial cell怎么引起科學(xué)家注意的)。
后來有一重大突破,發(fā)現(xiàn)glial cell傳導(dǎo)信號不是用的electrical signal,而是用chemical conductor(有題目出現(xiàn))。傳統(tǒng)觀點一直誤以為glial cell也像nerve cell一樣用電信號。后來談到glial cell可能的作用:使人更intelligent。
對glial cell的認(rèn)識目前十分有限,但相關(guān)研究已經(jīng)開始流行,是大家畢業(yè)之后可選的研究課題(有題目出現(xiàn))
3.LECTURE TWO
主題:浪漫主義詩歌
內(nèi)容簡介:主要介紹18-19 世紀(jì)英國浪漫主義(Romanticism)詩歌的代表人Wordsworth的詩。他是浪漫主義的鼻祖,但浪漫主義這個稱謂是后人加上的,不是他們本身這樣稱呼自己的(有題目出現(xiàn))。Romanticism不是我們平時理解的romance,和男女之間的愛情無關(guān)。Romanticism針對的是common people而不是少數(shù)educated people,用的是simple language,描述的是日常生活中常見的事物,孩子,人類情感,以及自然和人類之間的互動。教授以自己為例,說自己在散步時感受到了這種互動(有題目出現(xiàn))與romanticism針鋒相對的一種風(fēng)格是neoclassicism新古典主義,也是那位romanticism的鼻祖很反對的。neoclassicism使用太多的elaboration,如sky不叫sky,而叫blue什么的;bird不叫bird,而叫feathered person。教授把該詩人的作品分為三個階段。早期的浪漫主義作品,主要描述植物的(花與草)詩歌。中期時是對一些社會現(xiàn)象的評論。后期時對早期的作品進行修改。目前文學(xué)界還是認(rèn)為它早期的作品是最好的。教授還說,他的詩越寫到后來越糟糕,反而早期的比較好,本文重點講了他第一階段的詩。
本篇文章要點:
本篇文章中涉及到了一道舉例題,比如文章中教授會用自己的一個經(jīng)歷舉例子,然后問教授為什么說這個例子,學(xué)生在聽文章的時候應(yīng)該注意到比如for example等詞句,文中一旦出現(xiàn)例子,一定會有考題出現(xiàn)。另外,文章涉及到了一個事物的分類,像這種分類的情況,一定也會涉及到考題,比如填表體等等。所以考生在聽得過程中,應(yīng)該記住是怎么分類的,并且記住每一類的具體特征即可。
4.DIALOGUE TWO

內(nèi)容簡介:一個學(xué)生找老師因為他要寫的bird migration的報告,但找不到足夠多的材料,老師認(rèn)為不可能材料不夠(有問題出現(xiàn),問教授這話什么意思,答案是她認(rèn)為找resource應(yīng)該easy),男生說因為他要寫得paper是關(guān)于古代鳥類遷徙的,所以資料不夠。教授的說:“你確實找到了一個好的題目,但是你要知道我的要求是你們的論文要反映你們這學(xué)期學(xué)了什么。”后來他說想寫關(guān)于Aristotle關(guān)于這個題目的看法之類的,老師說她的要求是希望他們運用所學(xué)知識研究來完成paper 不要做summarization,希望他換一種想法,可以寫以前的old theory,然后現(xiàn)在的這些新研究如何支持或者駁斥這些theory,接著他想到可以寫bird migrate at night,人們大多只看到大鳥,所以認(rèn)為小鳥在大鳥的翅膀下遷徙什么的,其實新發(fā)現(xiàn)是因為小鳥晚上飛(有問題出現(xiàn),通過說這個topic來驗證自己理解了老師的意圖change the topic from ancient to recent)。后來他又想寫一種不遷徙而是冬眠的鳥,又被老師拒絕了,老師說才15頁的報告就不要那么折騰成這樣,但是想法挺不錯。最后老師希望他一周后再來一下,看一看他確定的方向。
本篇文章要點:
分析:本篇文章依然可以按照場景分類法進行整理總結(jié),比如遇到些論文的場景,可能會出現(xiàn)論文材料的討論,論文涉及的內(nèi)容,論文上交的日期等等,聽力前掌握好這些要點對于聽力會有一定的指導(dǎo)性。
5.LECTURE THREE
主題:拉格泰姆音樂(1890-1915期間在美國流行的一種音樂)Ragtime music
內(nèi)容簡介:Ragtime介紹了一種流行于美國十九世紀(jì)左右名為ragtime的音樂,能夠表現(xiàn)年青人的活力(spirit of youth)之類的,此樂流行是由于piano的關(guān)系,因為兩者真是太搭配了。在那個年代,在各種場合都用鋼琴。此樂當(dāng)時流行程度,就像Rock & Roll在某一時期一樣。(有問題出現(xiàn),女學(xué)生說了一堆后,來了一句 I just don't get it,意思是要教授explain),還說piano 之所以當(dāng)時那么受歡迎,一是因為它能與音律產(chǎn)生和諧,另一是因為當(dāng)時它算一種財富地位的象征什么的symbol of wealth and status。再加上那個年代,大家都沒錢,就去public concert or restaurant什么的聽音樂,而piano聲音夠響亮,又和ragtime music rhythm搭配的天衣無縫,所以,兩者相得益彰這個音樂年輕人很喜歡,因為很有激情。除了到處演出啊,park演出等不用鋼琴,因為難搬(有考點出現(xiàn),because of transportation problem)。同時,此樂也是 jazz的前身,因為演奏者不按牌理出牌,一首曲七個人彈,彈出七種調(diào)。這種ragtime音樂影響很遠啊,例如現(xiàn)在的jazz就是從那發(fā)展來的。
本篇文章要點:
分析:本篇文章在用詞上面可能會有一些難度,因為涉及到專業(yè)的音樂詞匯,另外本篇中也涉及到了句子的語氣語調(diào)的考察,這種考察一般會涉及到listen again題型中,這個題型和舊托福中的part a部分相似,可以參考舊托福中的part a部分的材料和總結(jié)進行復(fù)習(xí)。
6.LECTURE FOUR
主題:大王花Rafflesia
內(nèi)容簡介:教授一開始就介紹植物分類,提到分類中的species種,genus屬,order目。說植物的classification 很難,一些特性比較特殊的植物特別是這個樣子。提出植物的分類不能完全依靠它flower的形態(tài)和特性。提到Rafflesia(大王花),開花石會散發(fā)腐臭的味道,以吸引蠅類傳播花粉。她舉了Indonesia的一種植物M,它的flower很特別,超級大(圖片顯示它的直徑有一個手臂這么長,顏色為絳紅),有難聞的味道,象什么肉,但是最后發(fā)現(xiàn)他們不是一個order 的。生長在很惡劣的環(huán)境中,其它的植物都不能生長(有題目出現(xiàn):它生長在什么樣的環(huán)境當(dāng)中?) 這種植物有事物的來源,但是它還是會抓insect吃,因為它不能從土壤中得到足夠的營養(yǎng),所以要通過這種方式來獲取所需的營養(yǎng)(有題目出現(xiàn):為什么吃蟲子)。然后教授說了它怎么抓蟲的? 經(jīng)過很長時間的研究,專家發(fā)現(xiàn)它和violet(紫羅蘭)、willow(柳樹) 等是屬于一個order的,后提到幼時的violet,也會散發(fā)那種smell的。提到共存(有題目出現(xiàn))有提到另一種南美洲的植物和它是同一目的,但是花很小,味道也不難聞,與藍莓共生coherent。學(xué)生提問不能測DNA嗎,教授說這種大花基本不進行光合作用,沒法提取一般植物能提取到的DNA。在DNA分析技術(shù)成熟之前根本無法將他們并為同類,由于他們的特征差異太大。教授還提到這種植物的交配不易,其一氣味難聞致使傳蜜的動物不易接近,其二它每年只開一次花,且花分雌雄。所以要這么多先天條件湊齊不易,所以很少有人有機會看到開花的全過程。(有考題出現(xiàn))所以,結(jié)論,不可以貌取人。后來又講了這種花很有可能滅絕,原因是要fly幫忙運花粉,要同種的花在一起,要這些條件同時發(fā)生,是小概率事件。Small incident
本篇文章要點:
分析:本篇文章在近幾個月中的考試中出現(xiàn)的頻率極大,建議考生認(rèn)真準(zhǔn)備,而且生詞非常多,不宜作答。
