题目内容
5.People can often see a talking parrot on a TV show,in a movie,or even in someone's home.The parrot has learned(61)to copy(copy) sounds that people make.Dolphins,bats,and some apes also copy sounds.Now we can add elephants(62)tothis list of copycats (盲目的模仿者).Dr.Joyce Poole is a zoologist,(63)whostudies the sounds of elephants.While she was in Kenya,she would hear strange noises(64)made(make) by Mlaika after sunset.Mlaika was(65)an 8-year-old African elephant(66)andit lived near a highway.
Dr.Poole says that she couldn't tell the difference between Mlaika's call and the(67)distant(distance) truck noise.Why did(68)it copy the sounds of the trucks driving by?Animals that are able to copy sounds may enjoy(69)practicing(practice) new sounds.When they are kept outside of their natural environment,they may copy unusual sounds.
So far Dr.Poole(70)has spent(spend) 18years with two female Asian elephants.Asian elephants make sounds like birds to talk with one another.
Parrots,dolphins,humans,and elephants show that being a copycat is one way that animals and people make new friends and keep old ones.
分析 人们经常在屏幕上看到鹦鹉学舌,海豚,蝙蝠还有一些大猩猩也能模仿人类说话.最近动物学家Joyce Poole博士发现一头8岁的非洲象也是盲目模仿者.
解答 61.to copy;考查动词不定式,learn to do是固定短语,意为"学习做某事".
62.to;考查固定搭配,这里to是介词,add…to…意为"把…加到…上".
63.who;考查关系代词,这是一个非限制性定语从句,先行词为 a zoologist,指人,所以关系代词用who,在定语从句中作从句的主语.
64.made;考查分词作定语,noises与动词make是被动关系,所以用过去分词作定语,修饰strange noises.
65.an;考查不定冠词,分析句子可知此处用不定冠词表示数量"一个",8-year-old 是以元音音素开头,所以用an.
66.and;考查连词,结合上下文分析,这里是两个简单句,前后位并列关系,故用连词and.
67.distant;考查形容词,这里需要修饰的是名词短语 truck noise,所以此处应该用形容词形式distant.
68.it;考查代词,结合上下文分析,空格处指代的是文中提到的African elephant,故用代词it.
69.practicing;考查固定用法,enjoy后面跟动名词,enjoy doing意为"喜欢做某事",是固定搭配.
70.has spent;考查动词的时态,句中的短语so far意为"迄今为止",用于现在完成时中,主语为第三人称单数,故答案为has spent.
