没有发育好的磁场,海龟根本无法生存,繁衍。
限制塑料袋或许有用。
问题是,现在海里已经有成千上万的塑料袋了,即使分解成了小片,一样会危害海龟。
所以限塑解决不了燃眉之急。
改进的渔网,渔民会拒绝使用,因为网到的鱼会减少,收入会减少。
即使有法律规定必须使用,渔民也会趁没人使用传统渔网,回到岸上再换成改进渔网。

托福(写作)历年真题试卷汇编1(题后含答案及解析)题型有:1.jpg /> Question Summarize the points made in the lecture you just heard, explaining how they cast doubt on points made in the reading passage.正确答案:The reading passage takes a skeptical approach to the authenticity of the famous “Maine penny”found at an ancient Native American excavation known as the Goddard site, and argues that any claim of this coin being a Viking relic is false. The professor disagrees entirely, and counters each argument against the coin’s legitimacy. First, the reading points out that no other coin like this was ever found anywhere near the site in Maine. In fact, it was probably brought there by Native American trade many years later. The professor rebuts that just because no other coins like this have been found does not mean Vikings were not in the area. He describes their world travels and various proven trips they made to North America at that time. The next problem, according to the reading, is that if this penny was really brought by Vikings, why have no others of its type been discovered anywhere north or west of Iceland? The professor’s answer is that the coins were far too valuable to the Vikings, even treasured as highly as gold. The Vikings probably took most of the coins back with them when they returned home. Finally, the author cites that Kolbjorn Skaare of the University of Oslo determined the coin was circulated in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. However, Native Americans at the time had no concept of money or the value of silver coins. Therefore, there would have been no reason for the Vikings to bring silver coins to America. However, the professor says that even though the natives did not use silver coins as currency, they still loved the shining, attractive quality of silver, and some evidence even suggests they used this coin as a necklace or pendant.解析:针对著名的“缅因硬币”,阅读文章认为这枚硬币不可能是维京人带到美国的。

2000年5月TOEFL试题Section Three: Reading ComprehensionQuestion 1-9The canopy ,the upper level of the trees in the rain forest, holds a plethora of climbing mammals of moderately large size, which may include monkeys, cats, civets, andporcupines. Smaller species, including such rodents as mice and small squirrels ,are not line as prevalent overall in high tropical canopies as they are in most habitats globally.(5) Small mammals, being warm blooded, suffer hardship in the exposed and turbulentenvironment of the uppermost trees. Because a small body has more surface area per unitof weight than a large one of similar shape, it gains or loses heat more swiftly. Thus, inthe trees, where shelter from heat and cold may be scarce and conditions may fluctuate, asmall mammal may have trouble maintaining its body temperature.(10) Small size makes it easy to scramble among twigs and branches in the canopy forinsects, flowers, or fruit, but small mammals are surpassed, in the competition for food,by large ones that have their own tactics for browsing among food-rich twigs. The weightof a gibbon (a small ape) hanging below a branch arches the terminal leaves down so thatfruit-bearing foliage drops toward the gibbon‟s face. Walking or leaping species of a (15) similar or even larger size access the outer twigs either by snapping off and retrieving thewhole branch or by clutching stiff branches with the feet or tail and plucking food withtheir hands.Small climbing animals may reach twigs readily, but it is harder for them than for large climbing animals to cross the wide gaps from on tree crown to the next that typify the(20) high canopy. A macaque or gibbon can hurl itself farther than a mouse can: it can achievea running start, and it can more effectively use a branch as a springboard, even bouncingon a climb several times before jumping. The forward movement of a small animal isseriously reduced by the air friction against the relatively large surface area of its body.Finally, for the many small mammals that supplement their insect diet with fruits or seeds (25) an inability to span open gaps between tree crowns may be problematic, since trees thatyield these foods can be sparse.1. The passage answers which of the following questions?(A) How is the rain forest different from otherhabitats?(B) How does an animal‟s body size influencean animal‟s need for food?(C) Why does the rain forest provide anunusual variety of food for animals?

According to paragraph 2, which of the following is true about the small mammals in the rain forest?(A) They have body shapes that are adapted tolife in the canopy.(B) They prefer the temperature and climate ofthe canopy to that of other environments. (C) They have difficulty with the changingconditions in the canopy.(D) They use the trees of the canopy for shelterfrom heat and cold.5. In discussing animal size in paragraph 3, the author indicates that(A) small animals require proportionately morefood than larger animals do(B) a large animal‟s size is an advantage inobtaining food in the canopy(C) small animals are often attacked by largeanimals in the rain forest(D) small animals and large animals areequally adept at obtaining food in thecanopy6.

Which of the following terms is defined in the passage?(A) canopy(line 1)(B) warm blooded(line 5)(c) terminal leaves(line13)(D) springboard(line 21)Question 10-19During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, almost nothing was written about the contributions of women during the colonial period and the early history of the newlyformed United States. Lacking the right to vote and absent from the seats of power, women line were not considered an important force in history. Anne Bradstreet wrote some significant 5) poetry in the seventeenth century, Mercy Otis Warren produced the best contemporaryhistory of the American Revolution, and Abigail Adams penned important letters showingshe exercised great political influence over her husband, John, the second President of theUnited States. But little or no notice was taken of these contributions. During theseCenturies, women remained invisible in history books.(10)Throughout the nineteenth century, this lack of visibility continued, despite the effortsof female authors writing about women. These writers, like most of their male counterparts, were amateur historians. Their writings were celebratory in nature, and they were uncritical in their selection and use of sources.During the nineteenth century, however, certain feminists showed a keen sense of (15)history by keeping records of activities in which women were engaged. National, regional,and local women‟s organizations compiled accounts of their doings. Personalcorrespondence, newspaper clippings, and souvenirs were saved and stored. These sourcesfrom the core of the two greatest collections of women‟s hi story in the United States one atthe Elizabeth and Arthur Schlesinger Library at Radcliffe College, and the other the Sophia (20)Smith Collection at Smith College. Such sources have provided valuable materials for laterGenerations of historians.Despite the gathering of more information about ordinary women during the nineteenth Century, most of the writing about women conformed to the “great women” theory ofHistory, just as much of mainstream American history concentrated on “great men.” To (25)demonstrate that women were making significant contributions to American life, femaleauthors singled out women leaders and wrote biographies, or else important womenproduced their autobiographies. Most of these leaders were involved in public life asreformers, activists working for women‟s right to vote, or authors, and were notrepresentative at all of the great of ordinary woman. The lives of ordinary people(30)continued, generally, to be untold in the American histories being published.10. What does the passage mainly discuss?(A) The role of literature in early Americanhistories(B) The place of American women in writtenhistories(C) The keen sense of history shown byAmerican women(D)The “great women” approach t o historyused by American historians11. The word “contemporary” in line 5 meansthat the history was(A) informative(B) written at that time(C) thoughtful(D) faultfinding12.

In the last paragraph, the author mentions allof the following as possible roles ofnineteenth-century “great women” EXCEPT(A) authors(B) reformers(C) activists for women‟s rights(D) politicians19. The word “representative” in line 29 is closestin meaning to(A) typical(B) satisfied(C) supportive(D) distinctiveQuestion 20-29The end of the nineteenth century and the early years of the twentieth century were Marked by the development of an international Art Nouveau style, characterized by sinuous Lines, floral and vegetable motifs, and soft evanescent coloration. The Art Nouveau style Line was an eclectic one, bringing together elements of Japanese art, motifs of ancient cultures, (5) and natural forms. The glass objects of this style were elegant in outline, although oftendeliberately distorted, with pale or iridescent surfaces. A favored device of the style was to imitate the iridescent surface seen on ancient glass that had been buried. Much of the ArtNouveau glass produced during the years of its greatest popularity had been genericallyTermed “art glass.” Art glass was intended for decorative purposes and relied for its effect (10) pon carefully chosen color combinations and innovative techniques.France produced a number of outstanding exponents of the Art Nouveau style; among The most celebrated was Emile Galle (1846-1904). In the United States, Louis ComfortTiffany (1843-1933) was the most noted exponent of this style, producing a great variety of Glass forms and surfaces, which were widely copied in their time and are highly prized(15) today. Tiffany was a brilliant designer, successfully combining ancient Egyptian, Japanese,and Persian motifs.The Art Nouveau style was a major force in the decorative arts from 1895 until 1915, Although its influence continued throughout the mid-1920‟s. It was eventually to beOvertaken by a new school of thought known as Functionalism that had been present since (20) the turn of the century. At first restricted to a small avant-garde group of architects anddesigners, Functionalism emerged as the domiant influence upon designers after the First World War. The basic tenet of the movement-that function should determine from-wasnot a new concept. Soon a distinct aesthetic code evolved: from should be simple, surfaces plain, and any ornament should be based on geometric relationships. This new design (25) concept, coupled with the sharp postwar reactions to the styles and conventions of thepreceding decades, created an entirely new public taste which caused Art Nouveau types of glass to fall out of favor. The new taste demanded dramatic effects of contrast, stark outline and complex textural surfaces.21. What does paragraph 1 mainly discuss?(A) Design elements in the Art Nouveau style(B) The popularity of the Art Nouveau style(C) Production techniques for art glass(D) Color combinations typical of the ArtNouveau style22. The word “one” in line 4 refers to(A) century(B) development(C) style(D) coloration23. Paragraph 1 mentions that Art Nouveau glasswas sometimes similar to which aspect ofancient buried glass?(A) The distortion of the glass(B) The appearance of the glass surface(C) The shapes of the glass objects(D) The size of the glass objects24. The word “prized” in line 14 is closest inmeaning to(A) valued(B) universal(C) uncommon(D) preserved25. The word “overtaken” in line 19 is closestin meaning to(A) surpassed(B) inclined(C) expressed(D) applied26. What does the author mean by stating that“function should determine form” (line 22)?(A) A useful object should not be attractive.(B) The purpose of an object should influenceits form.(C) The design of an object is considered moresignificant than its function.(D) The form of an object should not includedecorative elements.27. It can be inferred from the passage that onereason Functionalism became popular wasthat it(A) clearly distinguished between art anddesign(B) appealed to people who liked complexpainted designs(C) reflected a common desire to break fromthe past(D) was easily interpreted by the general public28. Paragraph 3 supports which of the followingstatements about Functionalism?(A) Its design concept avoided geometricshapes.(B) It started on a small scale and thenspread gradually.(C) It was a major force in the decorative artsbefore the First World War.(D) It was not attractive to architects alldesigners.29. According to the passage, an object made inthe Art Nouveau style would most likelyinclude(A) a flowered design(B) bright colors(C) modern symbols(D) a textured surfaceQuestion 30During most of their lives, surge glaciers behave like normal glaciers, traveling perhaps only a couple of inches per day. However, at intervals of 10 to 100 years, these glaciersmove forward up to 100 times faster than usual. The surge often progresses along a glacier line like a great wave, proceeding from one section to another. Subglacial streams of meltwater (5) water pressure under the glacier might lift it off its bed, overcoming the friction between iceand rock, thus freeing the glacier, which rapidly sliders downhill Surge glaciers also mightbe influenced by the climate, volcanic heat, or earthquakes. However, many of theseglaciers exist in the same area as normal glaciers, often almost side by side.(10) Some 800 years ago, Alaska‟s Hubbard Glacier advanced toward the sea, retreated, andadvanced again 500 years later. Since 1895, this secentry-mile-long river of ice has beenflowing steadily toward the Gulf of Alaska at a rate of approximately 200 feet per year. InJune 1986, however, the glacier surged ahead as much as 47 feet a day. Meanwhile, awestern tributary, called Valerie Glacier, advanced up to 112 feet a day. Hubbard‟s surge (15) closed off Russell Fiord with a formidable ice dam, some 2,500 feet wide and up to 800feet high, whose caged waters threatened the town of Yakutat to the south.About 20 similar glaciers around the Gulf of Alaska are heading toward the sea. If enough surge glaciers reach the ocean and raise sea levels, West Antarctic ice shelves couldrise off the seafloor and become adrift. A flood of ice would then surge into the Southern (20) Sea. With the continued rise in sea level, more ice would plunge into the ocean, causing sealevels to rise even highter, which in turn would release more ice and set in motion a viciouscycle. The additional sea ice floating toward the tropics would increase Earth‟s albedo andlower global temperatures, perhaps enough to initiate a new ice age. This situation appearsto have occurred at the end of the last warm interglacial (the time between glacations), (25) called the Sangamon, when sea ice cooled the ocean dramatically, spawning the beginningof the Ice Age.30.What is the main topic of the passage?(A) The classification of different types ofsurge glaciers(B) The causes and consequences of surgeglaciers(C) The definition of a surge glacier(D) The history of a particular surge glacier31.The word “intervals” in line 2 is closes t inmeaning to(A) records(B) speeds(C) distances(D) periods32.The author compares the surging motion of asurge giacier to the movement of a(A) fish(B) wave(C) machine(D) boat33.Which of the following does the author mention as a possible cause of surging glaciers?(A) The decline in sea levels(B) The occurrence of unusually large oceanwaves(C) The shifting Antractic ice shelves(D) The pressure of meltwater underneath theglacier34.The word “freeing” in line 7 is closest inmeaning to(A) pushing(B) releasing(C) strengthening(D) draining35. According to the passage, the HubbardGlacier(A) moves more often than the Valerie Glacier(B) began movement toward the sea in 1895(C) is 800 feet wide(D) has moved as fast as 47 feet per day36. Yakutat is the name of(A) an Alaskan town(B) the last ice age(C) a surge glacier(D) an Antarctic ice shelf37.The word “plunge” in line 20 is closest in meaning to(A) drop(B) extend(C) melt(D) drift38.The te rm “vicious cycle” in lines 21-22 refersto the(A) movement pattern of surge glaciers(B) effect surge glaciers could have on thetemperature of tropical areas(C) effect that repeated rising sea levels mighthave on glacial ice(D) constant threat surge glaciers could pose tothe Gulf of Alaska39.The author provides a definition for which ofthe following terms?(A) Tributary (line 14)(B) Ice dam (line 15)(C) Albedo (line 22)(D) Interglacial (line 24)40.Which of the following statements issupported by the passage?(A) The movement of surge glaciers can beprevented.(B) The next ice age could be caused by surgegiaciers.(C) Surge glaciers help to support Antarctic iceshelves.(D) Normal glaciers have little effect onEarth‟s climate.Question 40-50According to sociologists, there are several different ways in which a person may become recognized as the leader of a social group in the United States. In the family,traditional cultural patterns confer leadership on one or both of the parents. In other cases, line such as friendship groups, one or more persons may gradually emerge as leaders, although (5) there is no formal process of selection. In larger groups, leaders are usually chosen formallythrough election or recruitment.Although leaders are often thought to be people with unusual personal ability, decades of research have failed to produce consistent evidence that there is any category of “natural leaders.” It seems that there is no set of personal qualities that all leaders have in common;(10) rather, virtually any person may be recognized as a leader if the person has qualities thatmeet the needs of that particular group.Furthermore, although it is commonly supposed that social groups have a single leader, research suggests that there are typically two different leadership roles that are held bydifferent individuals. Instrumental leadership is leadership that emphasizes the completion (15) of tasks by a social group. Group members look to instrumental leaders to “get things”done.” Expressive leadership, on the other hand, is leadership that emphasizes thecollective well-being of a social group‟s member. Expressive leader are less concernedwith the overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to groupmembers and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them. Group members (20) expect expressive leaders to maintain stable relationships within the group and providesupport to individual members.Instrumental leaders are likely to have a rather secondary relationship to other group members. They give orders and may discipline group members who inhibit attainment ofthe group‟s goals. Expressive leaders cultivate a more personal or primary relationship to (25) others in the group.

Corn production increased by four anda half times, hay by five times, oats and wheat by seven times. The most crucial factor behind this phenomenal upsurge in productivity was the widespread adoption of labor-saving machinery by northern farmers. By 1850 horse-drawn reaping machines that cut grain were being introduced into the major grain-growing regions of the country. Horse-powered threshing machines to separate the seeds from the plants were already in general use. However, it was the onset of the Civil War in 1861 that provided the great stimulus for the mechanization of northern agriculture. With much of the labor force inducted into the army and with grain prices on the rise, northern farmers rushed to avail themselves of the new labor-saving equipment. In 1860 there were approximately 80,000 reapers in the country; five years later there were 350,000.After the close of the war in 1865, machinery became ever more important in northern agriculture, and improved equipment was continually introduced. By 1880 a self-binding reaper had been perfected that not only cut the grain, but also gathered the stalks and bound them with twine. Threshing machines were also being improved and enlarged, and after 1870 they were increasingly powered by steam engines rather than by horses. Since steam-powered threshing machines were costly items —running from $ 1,000 to $4,000 —they were usually owned by custom thresher owners who then worked their way from farm to farm during the harvest season. "Combines" were also coming into use on the great wheat ranches in California and the Pacific Northwest. These ponderous machines — sometimes pulled by as many as 40 horses — reaped the grain, threshed it, and bagged it, all in one simultaneous operation.The adoption of labor-saving machinery had a profoundeffect upon the sale of agricultural operations in the northern states — allowing farmers to increase vastly their crop acreage. By the end of century, a farmer employing the new machinery could plant and harvest two and half times as much corn as a farmer had using hand methods 50 years before.1. What aspect of farming in the United States in the nineteenth century does the passage mainly discuss?(A) How labor-saving machinery increased crop Production(B) Why southern farms were not as successful as Successful as northern farms(C) Farming practices before the Civil War(D) The increase in the number of people farming2. The word "crucial" in line 4 is closest in meaning to(A) obvious(B) unbelievable(C) important(D) desirable3. The phrase "avail themselves" in line 11 is closest in meaning to(A) take care(B) make use(C) get rid(D) do more4. According to the passage , why was the Civil War a stimulus for mechanization?(A) The army needed more grain in order to feed the soldiers.(B) Technology developed for the war could also the used by farmers.(C) It was hoped that harvesting more grain would lower the price of grain.(D) Machines were needed to replace a disappearing labor force.5. The passage supports which of the following statements about machinery after the Civil War?(A) Many farmers preferred not to use the new machinery.(B) Returning laborers replaced the use of machinery.(C) The use of farm machinery continued to increase.(D) Poor-quality machinery slowed the pace of crop production.6. Combines and self-binding reapers were similar because each(A) could perform more than one function(B) required relatively little power to operate(C) was utilized mainly in California(D) required two people to operate7.
