2013年4月托福考试辅导:toefl阅读模拟试题第二套(3)
Paragraph 3
The environmental conditions of freshwater habitats, unlike those of ocean habitats, are highly variable. Water temperature can fluctuate seasonally or even daily and changing level of rainfall can lead to fluctuations in the concentration of chemical in the water or even to period in which the aquatic habitat dries up. Ancient fresh water green algae must have evolved features that enable them to withstand extremes of temperature and periods of dryness. These adaptations served their descendant well as they invaded land.
4、What can be inferred from paragraph 3 about ancient green algae?
They lived in a generally wet environment that was sometimes dry
They adapted better to changes in water temperature than did to other changes in the environment.
They inhabited areas that were close to the ocean.
They had lived primarily on land
Paragraph 4
The terrestrial world is green now, but it did not start out that way. When plants first made the transition ashore more than 400 million years ago, the land was barren and desolate , inhospitable to life. From a plant's evolutionary view point, however, it was also a land of opportunity, free of competitors, and predator arid full of carbon dioxide and sunlight (the raw materials for photosynthesis, which are present in far higher concentrations in air than in water) . So once natural selection had shaped the adaptations that helped plants overcome the obstacles to terrestrial living, plants prospered and diversified.
5、The word "desolate in the passage is closest In meaning to
dusty
hardened
deserted
dried out
6、 Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage? Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.
Terrestrial plants had the advantages of not having rivals and having easy access to photosynthetic material
The abundance of photosynthetic material made life on land easier for pioneering plants
Once plants had eliminated their competitors and their predators, their evolutionary process proceeded smoothly.
Plant evolution eliminated competitors and made the process of photosynthesis more efficient.
7、According to paragraph 4, which of the following is true about the terrestrial world at the time it was colonized by plants?
it was exposed to high levels of solar radiation
it contained a limited supply of carbon dioxide
it had developed 400million years earlier
it lacked the presence of any organisms
Paragraph 5
When plants pioneered the land, they faced a range of challenges posed by terrestrial environments. On land, the supportive buoyancy of water is missing, the plant is no longer bathed in a nutrient solution, and air tends to dry things out. These conditions favored the evolution of the structures that support the body, vessels that transport water and nutrients to all parts of plant, and structures that conserve water. The resulting adaptations to dry land include some structural features that arose early in plant evolution; now these features are common to virtually all land plant. They include roots or root like structures, a waxy cuticle that covers the surfaces of leaves and stems and limits the evaporation of water, and pores called stomata in leaves and stems that allow gas exchange but close when water is scarce, thus reducing water loss. Other adaptations occurred later in the transition to terrestrial life and now wide spread but not universal among plants. These include conducting vessels that transport water and minerals upward from the roots and that move the photosynthetic products from the leaves to the rest of the plant body and the stiffening substance lignin, which support the plant body, helping it expose maximum surface area to sunlight.
8、the word "posed" in the passage is closest in meaning to
shared
presented
strengthened
concealed
9、According to paragraph 5, all of the following are problems that early terrestrial plants had to overcome Except
a tendency to become dry
the inability to limit surface sunlight
the absence of a structure to support the body of the plant
the inability to transport water and minerals through the plant minerals
10、What purpose does paragraph 5 serve in the larger discussion of the origins of terrestrial plants?
To emphasize how long it took for ancestral plants to adjust to life on land
To disprove the argument that land plants adapted easily to their new terrestrial environment
To explain how plant colonization changed the physical environment of the terrestrial world
To describe how ancestral plants solved the problems they confirmed in colonizing
怎么练习托福tpo
许多人在报名托福考试之后,都会选择tpo试题进行训练备考,但做tpo也是需要方法的。下面就来说说怎么练习托福tpo,一起来看看吧!
一. 进行模拟测试
一套TPO听力,共2小节,严格控制在1小时内完成。
在做这件事的时候注意三个方面:
1.佩戴耳机聆听,不要使用外放;
2.在A4纸和铅笔上做笔记(这个笔记必须保存着);
3.在草稿纸做的时候要记录下不确定的选项,尤其是最后两个选项,以便于以后的分析。
二. 检查答案
对完答案之后,算一下自己的得分,然后马上看自己的错题。不要之后再进行分析,要现在就分析,因为现在你还记得做题的思考过程。
回头看看错误的选项,特别要找出让你分心的地方。
三. 找考点
不仅要分析所有错误的问题,而且还要找出所有问题的考点出处,这样才能锻炼自己对考点类型和位置的灵敏度,所以必须到原文中找出每道题的考点,并在原文出处标注以下三个信息:
对应题号。托福听力考试的顺序与原文一致,有时颠倒。
考点类型。它可能是主题句,也或者是举例子、对比、下定义、人名等。
四. 再次做笔记
当找完考点后,你会对它们更熟悉。现在再放一遍磁带,换一张草稿纸,再做一遍笔记。这是提高你的做笔记能力最快的方法,因为它有定型的效果。
第二次的笔记要比第一次更清晰,更完整,有更多的关键词和层次。
五. 模仿
一套tpo做完之后,你基本上已经算深入学习了,但是不要轻易就把这套tpo试题扔了。ETS总部2000多人的团队费尽心思出的任何一套托福题都值得慢慢研究。
且不说背诵了,跟着模仿是最基本的要求。今天做的TPO必须在明天上午之后阅读,后面还可以跟读。
