The discovery was made by researchers at York and Harvard Universities when they were examining the genetic relationship between the ancient woolly mammoth and mastodon to modern elephantsthe Asian elephant，African forest elephant，and African savanna elephant.,专题八 真题典例,Once they obtained DNA sequences(序列) from two fossils(化石)，mammoths and mastodons，the team compared them with DNA from modern elephants. They found to their amazement that modern forest and savanna elephants are as distinct from each other as Asian elephants and mammoths.,专题八 真题典例,The scientists used detailed genetic analysis to prove that the African savanna elephant and the African forest elephant have been distinct species for several million years. The divergence of the two species took place around the time of the divergence of Asian elephants and woolly mammoths. This result amazed all the scientists.,专题八 真题典例,There has long been debate in the scientific community that the two might be separate species，but this is the most convincing scientific evidence so far that they are indeed different species. Previously，many naturalists believed that African savanna elephants and African forest elephants were two populations of the same species，despite the elephants significant size differences. The savanna elephant has an,专题八 真题典例,average shoulder height of 3.5 metres while the forest elephant has an average shoulder height of 2.5 metres. The savanna elephant weighs between six and seven tons，roughly double the weight of the forest elephant. But the fact that they look so different does not necessarily mean they are different species. However the proof lay in the analysis of the DNA.,专题八 真题典例,Alfred Roca，assistant professor in the Department of Animal Sciences at the University of Illinois，said，“We now have to treat the forest and savanna elephants as two different units for conservation purposes. Since 1950，all African elephants have been conserved as one species. Now that we know the forest and savanna elephants are two very distinctive animals，the forest elephant should become a bigger priority(优先)for conservation purposes.”,专题八 真题典例,【要点综述】 本文为科普说明文。主要介绍关于大象的最新研究成果：非洲大象被分成两种完全不同的品种非洲草原大象和非洲森林大象。,专题八 真题典例,( )1.One of the fossils studied by the researchers is that of _. Athe Asian elephant Bthe forest elephant Cthe savanna elephant Dthe mastodon elephant,【解析】 D 细节理解题。根据第三段 “Once they obtained DNA sequences(序列)from two fossils(化石)，mammoths and mastodons, the team compared them with DNA from modern elephants.”可判断选D。,专题八 真题典例,( )2.The underlined word “divergence” in paragraph 4 means “_.” Aevolution Bexhibition Cseparation Dexamination,专题八 真题典例,【解析】 C 词义猜测题。根据第四段“The scientists used detailed genetic analysis to prove that the African savanna elephant and the African forest elephant have been distinct species for several million years.”可知，科学家已证实，非洲的草原大象与非洲的森林大象几百万年来都不属于同一品种，即可推断下句为“两种大象的分离应发生在”。由此可推断划线词应意为“分离”，故选C。,专题八 真题典例,( )3.The researchers conclusion was based on a study of the African elephants _. ADNA Bheight Cweight Dpopulation,专题八 真题典例,【解析】 A 细节理解题。根据第三段“Once they obtained DNA sequences(序列)from two fossils(化石)，mammoths and mastodons, the team compared them with DNA from modern elephants. They found to their amazement that modern forest and savanna elephants are as distinct from each other as Asian elephants and mammoths”可判断研究者的结论是建立在对非洲大象的DNA的研究结果的基础上的，故选A。,专题八 真题典例,( )4.What are Alfred Rocas words mainly about? AThe conservation of African elephants. BThe purpose of studying African elephants. CThe way to divide African elephants into two units. DThe reason for the distinction of African elephants.,专题八 真题典例,【解析】 A 逻辑推理题。根据最后一段中的“Now that we know the forest and savanna elephants are two very distinctive animals, the forest elephant should become a bigger priority (优先)for conservation purposes.”可推断他的讲话是围绕对非洲大象的保护的，故选A。,专题八 真题典例,( )5.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? ANaturalists Beliefs about Elephants BAmazing Experiments about Elephants CAn Unexpected Finding about Elephants DA Long Scientific Debate about Elephants,【解析】 5C 主旨大意题。根据主题段第一段可知，本文主要介绍关于非洲大象的最新研究成果：非洲草原大象和非洲森林大象实为两种完全不同的品种。由此判断选C。,专题八 新题预测,(一) Motorists who used to listen to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves, after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface. A team from the Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of “melody roads”， which use cars as tuning forks to play music as they travel.,专题八 新题预测,The concept works by using grooves(凹槽)They are cut at very specific intervals in the road surface. The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes. Depending on how far apart the grooves are, a car moving over them will produce a series of high or low notes, and designers are able to create a distinct tune.,专题八 新题预测,Paten documents for the design describe it as notches “formed in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melody like tones” There are three musical strips in central and northern Japanone of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song. Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda. He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer before driving over them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tones.,专题八 新题预测,The optimal speed for melody road is 44kph，but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound. “You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well，”wrote one Japanese blogger. “Driving too fast will sound like playing fast forward, while driving around12mph20km/hhas a slow motion effect, making you almost carsick.”,专题八 新题预测,( )1.According to the passage, melody roads use _ to create different notes. Acars Bgrooves Cspaces between intervals Dbulldozers,【解析】 C 细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句话The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes.可以得出答案为C。,专题八 新题预测,( )2.We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes depends on _. Ahow far the grooves are Bhow big the grooves are Cthe number of the grooves Dthe speed of the car,【解析】 2A 细节理解题。根据文章第四段第一句话可知，声音的高低取决于凹槽的间距，因此正确答案为A。,专题八 新题预测,( )3.The underlined word “optimal” in the passage might mean _. Afastest Bpossible Cbest DSuitable,【解析】 C 词义猜测题。根据文章倒数第二段，并联系上下文可以推断，optimal在这里是“最佳的，最理想的”，因此正确答案为C 。,专题八 新题预测,( )4.In order to hear the music well, you have to _. Adrive very fast Bdrive slowly Copen the windows wide Dkeep the windows closed,【解析】 4D 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段第一句话可以得出选项D正确。其余三项都与原文说法不符。,专题八 新题预测,( )5.Whats the best title of the passage? AA New Type of Music BMelody Roads in Japan CA Musical Road Surface DA New Invention in Japan,【解析】 5B 主旨大意题。文章讲述的是日本发明音乐路面的事情，故选B。,专题八 新题预测,(二) Following some of the tips for green living helps save our planet. All of these involve just a few changes to our daily habits.,专题八 新题预测,Just walk and limit the use of your car. One of the poster images of pollution is our vehicles. It burns fuel. It is not as efficient as we hope it could be, and we use it every single day. To lessen the effects of the air pollution caused by our vehicles, we should limit their use. If we can walk to our destination then just let us go. Not only do we lessen our carbon dioxide emissions, but we also get a good exercise out of it.,专题八 新题预测,Use a laptop instead of a computer desktop. Laptops are more energy efficient compared to their bigger counterparts. A laptop is generally 50 percent more efficient in using electricity. Aside from that there are other benefits of a laptop. It is portable so you can work anywhere you like and that you get powerful features without the large size of desktop units.,专题八 新题预测,Turn off the faucet while you are brushing your teeth. It is always a better idea to use a glass when we are brushing our teeth and not to just let the faucet keep on running. Therefore, there is less water to waste while we are cleaning our pearly whites. Simply turn off the faucet when you are not using it.,专题八 新题预测,Make good use of natural light. We have a great and natural lampthe sun, and we should learn how to take full advantage of it during daytime. So instead of turning on our lights or lamps even if it is still not evening, we should pull up the drapes and let the natural light come in from the windows.,专题八 新题预测,These are just some of the best tips for green living, but of course there are still many of these tips if you just search for them. But you can do your own variation any time just always prioritize how you can use less energy and produce even less trash and pollution.,专题八 新题预测,( )1.Whats the best title for the passage? AHow to Save Our Planet BHow to Change Our D
