This short bank thaws faster than the tall one does,so it falls into the lake—it slumps, much more and much faster than the other bank.When the short banks of many lakes slump,they move farther downhill and the lakes grow—all in the same downhill direction.This is a new theory,so it hasn't been tested much yet.In field studies,when we've looked at the banks of these thaw lakes,there's not much evidence of slumping. We'd expect to see cliff-like formations there,from the slumping,but we haven't really found many of those.题目1.What is the main purpose of the lecture?[Click on two answers.]A.To contrast how different kinds of thaw lakes growB.To explain why a new theory of thaw lakes is gaining acceptanceC.To explain how processes in permafrost lead to the formation of thaw lakesD.To describe two competing theories about the growth of thaw lakes2.The professor explains thaw lake formation as a cycle of events that occur repeatedly.Summarize this cycle,starting with the event filled in below.[Click on a sentence.Then drag it to the space where it belongs.The first one is done for you. One sentence will not be used]A.Meltwater flows into cracks in permafrostB.Ice wedges inside permafrost completely meltC.Freezing water expands cracks in permafrostD.Ice in the active layer melts as temperatures riseE.Permafrost shrinks and cracks as temperatures drop..3.What is the significance of the'protective shelf'discussed by the professor?A.It prevents the slumping of lake banks.B.It shields the lake surface from strong winds.C.It redirects the waves to lake banks that do not face the wind.D.It allows the lakes to grow in the same direction as the wind blows.4.According to the thaw slumping model,which side of a thaw lake grows fastest?A.The side where the bank is shortestB.The side least exposed to windC.The side that is at the highest elevationD.The side opposite the protective shelf5.What is the professor's opinion of the thaw slumping model?A.He thinks it was urgently needed.B.He is not convinced that it has a firm basis.C.He thinks it would be better if it were simplified.D.He does not think it is very different from the old model.6.Why does the professor say this:You ever see mud after it dries?A.He wants some information from the students.B.He thinks that the students may find an example helpful.C.He realizes that he forgot to mention an important topic.D.He wants to point out an important difference between frozen ground and dry ground.答案CD EDACB C A B B译文听一段地质学的讲座。
七种托福听力讲座结构摘要:托福听力遇到讲座类题型是在平常不过的了,很多考生在备考托福听力的时候就会把大量的时间投放到托福听力讲座类题型中去,今天小编就总结七种托福听力讲座结构,让大家更好地了解托福听力讲座类题型。
今天小编为大家整理七种托福听力讲座结构,因为很多考生在备考托福听力的时候都不是很了解这类型题型,所以今天小编为大家整理七种托福听力讲座结构,方便大家备考。
首先,考生从宏观上把握托福听力讲座结构,可以解决讲座“信息量很大”的问题;其次,梳理结构是笔记的关键;最重要的是,这对应了ETS中Connecting Information,也就是衔接信息题。
大致上,讲座可以分为八种结构。
下面,结合TPO讲座真题,我们来详细分析这七种结构文章。
1. 平行结构(三段式)这种结构可以说是逻辑最简单、信号最明显、入门最快速的一类。
一般来说,教授会在引出主旨之后,通过并列的几个方面来描述某种现象、解释某种原理或者描述某种事物。
当然,每一个方面会有具体深入的解释和举例说明。
这里注意的是,也许每一块的内容具有共同点,但是相互之间是独立的,没有比较、相互影响的关系。
在听的过程中,要特别注意开头,比如TPO 11 Lecture 4,教授引出主旨”The ‘Four Ms’: Market, Media, Money, Message. All are important areas to focus on when creating your advertising plan. We will look at them one b y one.”通过最后这句话可以预判文章的结构,在主体段分别讲解了这四个M的原则。
在听主体段的过程中要注意first, second, and then, finally或者提问之类的话题转变的信号词。
2. 假设结构(接近第一种)这种结构可以说是平行结构的一种衍生体。
主要的特点就是教授针对某个问题或现象的解决方案或者产生原因提出了猜想和假设,可能是深入剖析一种假设,比如TPO22 Lecture 1中对于state形成原因是environmental approach的分析;也可能是同时提出了几种假设,比如TPO 22 Lecture 2中young sun paradox的几种solution猜想。
Lecture 21,22, 32 分词Subject:Getting mad at others means other people are getting control of my emotions Constant dropping wears away a stone.Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength; While loving someone gives you courage.Subject Complement:Seeing is believing.Life is painting a picture, not doing a sum.Object:By going down into the river, you will know its depth; by taking a bite of the pear, you’ll know its taste.There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.Our modern civilization must not be thought of as having been created in a short period of time.Mark often attempts to escape being fined whenever he breaks traffic regulations.AttributeEuphemisms are unpleasant truths wearing diplomatic cologne.Man is only a reed, the weakest thing in nature; but he is a thinking reed.A book is like a garden carried in a pocket.Hidden wisdom differs little from ignorance.AdverbialSeen under a microscope, a fresh snowflake has a delicate six-pointed shape. Chinese diving queen Guo Jingjing wore a sexually suggestive T-shirt at a formal sports ceremony, causing strong concerns in public.That is why women remain children their whole life long: never seeing anything but what is quite close to them, clinging to the present moment, taking appearance for reality, and preferring trifles to matters of the first importance.For many years he was a recluse, wandering the campus, talking to no one, drinking coffee, smoking cigarettes, paging through piles of newspapers and magazines.Object ComplementA teacher came into the classroom and noticed a girl sitting near the door with her feet in the aisle and chewing gum. “Ethel”, shouted the teacher, “take the gum out of your mouth and put your feet in.”They saw passengers engulfed in fire.Dangling Participle (Unattached Participle)I know nothing regarding the present situation.Touching her wealth, I have nothing to say.There are ten applicants, counting Bill.Wanting water, fish can’t live.Failing patience, one won’t succeed.They had to stay in the secret cave pending nightfall.The new regulations are effective beginning today.allowing for, coming to, talking of,judging from,taking all things together, taking all things into considerationleaving …on one side, setting asideviewing it from this standpointThe project will take about eight months, allowing for delays caused by the rainy season.Coming to politics, he is a layman.Viewing it from this standpoint, the regulation should not be abolished.Setting aside the price, the machine has some other deficiencies.Considering that you are a freshman, we will forgive you.Seeing that he is ill, he is unlikely to come.Admitting that she has drunk, that is no excuse.Provided that one is diligent and patient, one can achieve something.It being a sunny day, a small match girl was making her way down the street, holding a box of matches in her hand / a box of matched in her hand.Good timekeeping is becoming a forgotten social etiquette, with a new generation considering lateness the norm rather than a faux pas that should be avoided.With more than 3 million hardcover copies sold in its first two years of publication, Who moved my cheese?has become an amazing best seller, topping the NY times, WS Journal, and USA Today lists.。
