老托福阅读真题及答案解析 托福从听、说、读、写四方面进行英语能力全面考核。托福频道为大家提供了这四个方面的资料，希望对大家有所帮助。 Aviculturists, people who raise birds for commercial sale, have not yet learned how to simulate the natural incubation of parrot eggs in the wild. They continue to look for better ways to increase egg production and to improve chick survival rates. When parrots incubate their eggs in the wild, the temperature and humidity of the nest are controlled naturally. Heat is transferred from the bird's skin to the top portion of the eggshell, leaving the sides and bottom of the egg at a cooler temperature. This temperature gradient may be vital to successful hatching. Nest construction can contribute to this temperature gradient. Nests of loosely arranged sticks, rocks, or dirt are cooler in temperature at the bottom where the egg contacts the nesting material. Such nests also act as humidity regulators by allowing rain to drain into the bottom sections of the nest so that the eggs are not in direct contact with the water. As the water that collects in the bottom of the nest evaporates, the water vapor rises and is heated by the incubating bird, which adds significant humidity to the incubation environment. In artificial incubation programs, aviculturists remove eggs from the nests of parrots and incubate them under laboratory conditions. Most commercial incubators heat the eggs fairly evenly from top to bottom, thus ignoring the bird's method of natural incubation, and perhaps reducing the viability and survivability of the hatching chicks. When incubators are not used, aviculturists sometimes suspend wooden boxes outdoors to use as nests in which to place eggs. In areas where weather can become cold after eggs are laid, it is very important to maintain a deep foundation of nesting material to act as insulator against the cold bottom of the box. If eggs rest against the wooden bottom in extremely cold weather conditions, they can become chilled to a point where the embryo can no longer survive. Similarly, these boxes should be protected from direct sunlight to avoid high temperatures that are also fatal to the growing embryo. Nesting material should be added in sufficient amounts to avoid both extreme temperature situations mentioned above and assure that the eggs have a soft, secure place to rest. 1. What is the main idea of the passage ? (A) Nesting material varies according to the parrots' environment. (B) Humidity is an important factor in incubating parrots' eggs. (C) Aviculturists have constructed the ideal nest box for parrots. (D) Wild parrots' nests provide information useful for artificial incubation. 2. The word "They" in line 2 refers to
背单词的书推荐 在日常学习英语中，背单词，应该找那些书籍。 1、新东方-胡敏读故事记单词系列。这套书是新东方教育集团总裁、北京新东方学校第二任校胡敏编著的，他主张在英语培训领域提出自己独特的教学理念改进学习方法、提高应试技巧、加强英语实，升华事业人生，这一理念在新东方的课堂上得以贯彻并为广大学员所认可。书中是一些内容各异、即兴创作的故事，且借故事帮助读者记住单词和它们的一些用法。此套从书由易到难，有初中、高中、大英四级、六级和托福等五本书，建议同学们觉得自己平时就爱看小说、故事之类书籍的选择，而且可以根据自己的英语水平选择套中的不同书本，循序渐进地学习。 2、李阳疯狂英语口语突破系列之突破单词。这本书是的目的是突破核心单词，口语更胜一筹。书中包括数十种高效的单词记忆法：方法穿插全书。建议平时背单词时喜欢边读边背，不读背不出的同学选择。 3、新经典智库的爱上背单词丛书。这套丛书特别适合刚刚开始学习英语的中小学生;曾学过英语，但由于种种原因被迫放弃者;深受传统英语教学方法束缚，学习不得法，甚至失去兴趣者。它满足了读者背单词的两个根本目的：一是“记住”，二是“会用”。丛书包括基础关键词、进阶关键词和高考关键词三本，如果同学有觉得自己需要从头开始学
英语，背单词的，又愿意找到一个好方法认真学的，可以考虑这套书。甚至跟自己的孩子们比比看谁学得快，不知道你们有没有勇气呢。 4、词根记忆书。词根记忆是英语单词记忆中非常重要的一种记忆方法，英语中的很多单词都具有相同的词根，因此记住词根，并根据词根来记忆单词，可以实现背一即背十的目标，而且掌握了词根后，即使在考试、日常的阅读中碰到不会的单词，也可以用词根法来推断它的意思。以词根记忆单词的书籍，我推荐新东方出的《大学英语考试CET-4：四级词汇词根+联想记忆法》，还有六级版的、英语词汇速记大全、TOEFL词汇等几本。还有声名很好的《星火式四六级词汇巧记速记》。建议平常就看推理的同学，喜欢举一反三的同学用。 5、口袋书系列。我看过的口袋书都还挺不错的，如吴铭方英语词汇书，一小本，装在口袋里，有空的时候就拿出来看看，或者每天给自己一个任务，背完10页，一小本书很快就过了。而且书里也有各种单词的记忆法提示，和提醒你循环背诵的时间表。 其实“背单词”从来就是学英语不可或缺的一部分，只是母语孩子不像我们几十年前(写下这个数字的时候真是辛酸，青春还没享受呢怎么就没了)学英语那样，刻苦就是抱着“红宝书”啃下单词列表。现在大家耳熟能详的Phonics(见
托福阅读真题3 PASSAGE 3 The Native Americans of northern California were highly skilled at basketry, using the reeds,grasses, barks, and roots they found around them to fashion articles of all sorts and sizes- not only trays, containers, and cooking pots, but hats, boats, fish traps, baby carriers, and ceremonialobjects. Of all these experts, none excelled the Pomo — a group who lived on or near the coast during the 1800's, and whose descendants continue to live in parts of the same region to this day. They made baskets three feet in diameter and others no bigger than a thimble. The Pomo people were masters of decoration. Some of their baskets were completely covered with shell
pendants; others with feathers that made the baskets' surfaces as soft as the breasts of birds. Moreover, the Pomo people made use of more weaving techniques than did their neighbors. Most groups made all their basketwork by twining —the twisting of a flexible horizontal material, called a weft, around stiffer vertical strands of material, the warp. Others depended primarily on coiling — a process in which a continuous coil of stiff material is held in the desired shape with tight wrapping of flexible strands. Only the Pomo people used both processes with equal ease and frequency. In addition, they made use of four distinct variations on the basic twining process, often employing more than one of them in a single article. Although a wide variety of materials was available, the Pomo people used only a few. The warp was always made of willow, and the most commonly used weft was sedge root,
Having Faith You can call me A.J., which is an abbreviation of my full name, Alexander Justice. I like to abbreviate my name because it's easier for people to remember. I work for a museum that collects aboriginal artifacts. I would like to tell you why I have an abiding faith in the legal system. The story you're about to read has been abridged to reduce its length. I used to live in an area where criminals abounded and where the legal system seemed powerless. One day, my daughter was abducted. Although I abided by the kidnapper's monetary demands,they refused to release her.. The Police responded immediately and searched the area. Despite their lack of success, they refused to abandon their search or to call an abort to their mission. They knew that any abortive action would surely result in my daughter's death. The investigation eventually led the police to conduct an abrupt search at the home of a local official who was abashed when he learned of the search. My daughter was found in his basement. She had abrasions to her wrists where the abrasive rope had scraped her. The official was arrested along with his bodyguard who abetted him in the kidnapping. The official was forced to abdicate his position and was sent to prison for life. The judge told him that he was lucky that capital punishment had been abolished and that it was only due to this abolition that he would not be executed. The swift apprehension and strict punishment of these criminals helped to abate my lack of faith in the legal system. These days, I truly believe in "justice", and it's not because of my name! 你可以叫我A.J.，这是我的全名Alexander Justice 的缩写。我喜欢缩写我的名字，因为这样人们更容易记住。我在一家收藏土著手工艺品的博物馆工作。 我要告诉你为什么我会始终不渝地信任法制。下面你将讲到我的故事已被删减，以免冗长。我曾住在一个罪犯多如牛毛而法律又软弱的地区。一天，我的女儿遭到绑架。尽管我遵从了绑架者的金钱要求，他们仍然拒绝释放她。我别无选择，只好寄希望于法律机构。警察部门立刻行动，铺面搜查该地区。虽然徒劳无获，但他们不愿中止行动、放弃搜查，因为他们知道任何失败都将导致我女儿的死亡。调查到最后，警察部门决定出其不意地搜查当地一名官员的家。那名官员得知要被搜查时，羞愧难当。警察在他的地下室找到了我女儿。她的手腕有多处磨伤，那是补粗糙的绳子擦伤的。那名官员连同唆使他绑架的保镖双双被捕。那名官员被迫辞职，判处终身监禁。法官告诉他该庆幸极刑已被废除，他将免遭处决。迅速抓获罪犯并严惩的做法减少了我对法治的不信任感。现在，我真正信任“司法”，但并不是因为我的名字叫Justice! abandon vt. 抛弃，放弃; n. 放纵，沉溺于abash vt. 使羞愧 abate v. (数量、程度等）减少，减轻，缓解abbreviate vt. 缩短；缩写 abbreviation n. 缩写，缩写词 abdicate v. 让位，辞职；放弃（权利或责任）abduct vt. 绑架，拐走 abet vt. 帮助；教唆，唆使；煽动，怂恿abide vi. 遵守；vt. 忍受 abiding adj. 持久的abolish vt. 废除，取消 abolition n. 废除，革除 aboriginal adj. 土著的；原来的；土著居民的abort n. 中止计划（任务） abortive adj. 失败的，无结果的 abound vi. 充满；富于 abrasion n. 表面磨损 abrasive adj. 研磨的 abridge v. 缩短，删节 abrupt adj. 突然的，意外的 Love of Numbers

托福阅读TPO1题目解析 TPO是托福备考圣经，但是并不是有“圣经”就能完全把握托福考试。还要看大家怎么去利用这份资料。针对原文，我们可以最大限度的剖析再剖析。直到把文章掌握得滚瓜烂熟。而大家又是怎样对待其中的每个考题呢？是做完对对答案，记下答对率；还是认真分析每个考题在考什么，找出托福阅读的“点”在哪？前者居多吧！ 所以关于托福阅读TPO，小编希望最大限度地利用这些ETS提供的阅读题目。在题目中，找到每个题目考察点，给出最全最有逻辑的解析。今天，小编分享给大家的是关于TPO1Timberline Vegetation on Mountains的题目分析。 Timberline Vegetation on Mountains 山上树带界线的植被 1.The transition from forest to treeless tundra on a mountain slope is often a dramatic one.Within a vertical distance of just a few tens of meters,trees disappear as a life-form and are replaced by low shrubs,herbs,and grasses.This rapid zone of transition is called the upper timberline or tree line.In many semiarid areas there is also a lower timberline where the forest passes into steppe or desert at its lower edge,usually because of a lack of moisture. 2.The upper timberline,like the snow line,is highest in the tropics and lowest in the Polar Regions.It ranges from sea level in the Polar Regions to4,500meters in the dry subtropics and3,500-4,500meters in the moist tropics.Timberline trees are normally evergreens,suggesting that these have some advantage over deciduous trees(those that lose their leaves)in the extreme environments of the upper timberline.There are some areas, however,where broadleaf deciduous trees form the timberline.Species of birch,for example, may occur at the timberline in parts of the Himalayas. 3.At the upper timberline the trees begin to become twisted and deformed.This is particularly true for trees in the middle and upper latitudes,which tend to attain greater heights on ridges,whereas in the tropics the trees reach their greater heights in the valleys.This is because middle-and upper-latitude timberlines are strongly influenced

托福新手备考攻略 内部学员冬冬整理，教师Chloe指导 像我这种学习不走心，却面临考托福的懒人来说，在准备考试之前，能有个严谨的备考攻略，那真是再好不过了！鉴于我自己的经历，在考前接受了大家众多的帮助，除了感谢大家的慷慨分享之外，我决定将这一优良传统延续下去。所以这一篇既是整合大家经验也是结合个人经验的攻略，希望它能惠及更多的和我一样的“烤鸭们”。BTW ，还要感谢“西雅图教育”在我备考一路走来为我提供的支持和鼓励。 这篇攻略以我自己备考的准备顺序分了三阶段，每一阶段都有侧重点，由易入难。第一阶段主要是背单词，研究OG，听力、作文入门；第二阶段主攻阅读和听力，兼顾作文和口语（入门），加强单词复习；第三阶段主攻口语和写作，兼顾复习阅读。最后是模考“受虐”阶段收尾。其中单词词汇的背诵是贯穿始终的，至死方休...各阶段具体安排参考如下： 第一阶段：背单词 准备材料：词汇书、OG 、longman综合教程、 词汇书： 前期“小红宝书”打底（45天突破版，词根+联想，涵盖8000单词） 后期“词以类记”巩固（适于有词汇基础的“烤鸭”，利于脑中浆糊分区巩固） 安排时间：3--4周，平均每天4小时 具体安排： 备考初期，词汇量要足够，循环背诵。词汇就是硬道理。缺乏词汇量有三大危害：第一，阅读考试中的词汇题会大量丢分。第二，听力无法有效记笔记，不但影响
听力成绩，还会影响综合写作和综合口语的发挥。第三，同义词贫乏，在写作和口语中不停重复同一个单词，降低了成绩。对于fresh“烤鸭”来说，每天词汇量控制在2个list（200个左右）是比较合适的。最重要的还是不断重复复习学过的单词，杨鹏的循环记忆法比较值得借鉴。每天闲暇、坐车途中推荐“百词斩”软件,一遍一遍不厌其烦的给你重复不会的单词，直到你忍无可忍将它拖出去斩了。在单词积累过程中，复习比初背更重要。即使某天没有时间背多少新单词，也要确保复习任务的时间，尤其是在单词的第二、三次刺激加固复习的重要阶段。一般来说，初背200个单词每天就要花大致2小时。复习时间上，复习新背过不久的单词每个list（100个左右）大致花费20-30分钟不等。复习已经看过3、4遍的 list，大致花费5-10分钟不等。所以单词上每天花费的时间其实并不少，是这一阶段需投入最多精力的部分。 其次就是OG(OFFICAL GUIDE): OG就是ETS考试中心官方给出的应试指南，和托福实战考试的难度非常接近。OG是非常标准的向你介绍TOEFL的题型.所以OG 应该是大家在考试复习时候的必备的材料。开始主要是看OG上解释说明的部分，尤其是对于各个单项的介绍。通过看OG了解TOEFL考试的概况。利用里面ETS 提供的较为丰富的作文样本、口语录音样本，配合主观题的评分标准，自己研究具体评分细则，从样本里找出扣分的原因。这种分析能对主观题的解答能奠定良好的基础。 首先在做题的时候，把所有做着别扭、不能确定的题都画上记号，之后重点分析错题和这些画上记号的题，回忆做的时候自己的思路，再仔细理解正确答案中体现出来的思路。基本上，除了单词题没有太多诀窍可言外（单词题必须要靠基本功做），其他内容大多可以感悟到ETS的出题思路。OG里很重要的一点是有官方的题目类型分析，而一般来讲我们错的题都会集中落在其中的某几类上（例如代词指代、句子作用、归纳总结题等），这个时候仔细揣摩正确答案的思路就很重要。 再次是初级听力、写作范文“冰冻三尺，非一日之寒”，说的就是听力和写作能力方面的提升。初级阶段就听比较简单的材料，“TED公开课”是我比较推荐的APP，全球名校课堂或名人限时18分钟演讲，涉及各个领域，对自己不管是知识
