2016年2月13日雅思听力机经
2016 年 2 月 13 日雅思听力机经 section2 local cookery course section3 joint project of 心理学和 marketingsection4 westlandian airport 的作用以及想要建造新地址(新地址有两个 sites 优点缺点)1、在听力部分,每答对一题得一分对于第一点,曾经有人分析听力每套题的第一和第二部分比三、四部分简单,所以第三、四部分的错误要多扣分。
我认为这种分析不够准确。
因为该评分标准明确提出每答对一题得一分,故尔每个部分中每个题目的分值是一样的。
我建议,尤其是对于基础相对比较薄弱的考生,要把第一和第二部分作为得分的重点。
如果前面两个部分错误保证在 3-5 个以内,后面两个部分再做对5-8 个,那么基本可以得到 5-6 分。
对于目标分数比较高的考生,前面两个部分的错误一定要尽量控制在 3 个以内,后面两个部分的错误控制在 5 个以内,那么 7-7.5 分就比较容易了。
想得到8 分或者以上的同学,前面两个部分要保证基本不犯错误,才有可能达到目标。
2、如果答案是英文字母或数字,你只能填入所需的答案数量的字母或数字。
比如,如果一个答案是要求填一个英文字母或数字,那你只能填一个;如果你提供了多个字母或数字,答案就算错。
这一点主要是针对选择题和搭配题。
在单项选择的答案中,只能写一个正确的字母,否则算错。
在多选题的答案中,如果是两个或者是两个以上的题号,每个题号后面只能写一个正确的字母,但是顺序可以颠倒。
比如:Q21-23 CIRCLE 3 CORRECT LETTERS,如果答案分别是 A,B,C 那么答案可以写成:答案示例如果其中一个是错误的,那么只扣除一道题目的分数。
考生容易犯的低级错误是把 2-3 个题目的答案全部放在一个题号后面(见上面的表格),如果把A、B、C 三个字母全部放在 21 题后面,结果从 21 题开始,后面所有的题目都会写错行,导致不可估量的损失。
如果是只有一个题号的多选题,在答题纸上写答案的时候,只要一个字母错就会算错,因为一个题目不会有半分;考生曾经犯过的低级错误是把一个题目的答案放在两个题号后面,也会导致后面的全错。
建议大家在考试之前,在做完题目之后多抄写两次答案,这样就可以避免类似的错误。
3、答案可以采用大写或小写关于大小写的问题有两个版本。
有考官说:所有的答案大写和小写均可接受。
也有的考官说:专有名词必须大写。
我更倾向与后面一种说法。
比如,答案是Mr. Green,假如你写成Mr. green,那么就变成了“绿先生”。
建议考生在抄写答案的时候,如果不清楚,写成大写。
这样肯定不会算错。
比如,在中国的考试中,问答题的答案要求第一个字母必须大写;在雅思考试中问答题的答案不要求大写第一个字母,但是如果你大写的话肯定也不会算错。
4、括号中的文字可以任意选用---这些字虽然是正确的,但并非一定要使用。
在剑桥系列的听力答案中,经常会出现这样的情况:April (the) 18th ,put (it) together 或者(the) best buy。
在这个答案中,括号里面的“the, it”是可有可无的。
要注意,能够放在括号里面的只能是一些不重要的单词,如果不写的话肯定不会影响答案的意思。
建议考生遇到这样的情况,在不超过字数要求的时候保留这些并不太重要的单词。
不要在答案中加带括号的单词,因为括号中的单词如果错误或者不应该有的话,答案算是错误的。
(见第八点)5、替代答案以斜线分隔这个问题是本次澳洲之行的收获之一。
我们在剑桥系列的答案中经常会见到下面这样的情况:15/15people, move around/move about, the best/the best buy/safe, a term/one term, 2 modules/for 2 terms, a topic/one topic, children’s education/their children’s education。
但是请各位考生同学们注意,这只是在答题纸上表示出了各种有可能对的答案而已。
作为阅卷的考官可以依据这些不同的答案来判断考生是否写了其中的一个,然后来判定考生是否得分。
就如同在前文第二点中关于选择题的答案的写法是一个道理,如果在答题纸上写两个或以上题号的多选题的答案时,不能在一个题号后面写所有的答案,即便是加上“OR”也不允许。
例如:在 21-23 题写答案的时候,不允许写成:21A OR B OR C,22,22B OR C OR A,23C OR A OR B。
这样写答案是绝对不允许的。
否则你可以写成 A OR B OR C OR D OR E。
建议考生在遇到类似的情况的时候,一定要记得只写一个答案。
我们不应该让考官来做选择题,这样考官会选择不给分。
6、如果答案指定你必须使用几个字或一个(或多个)数字,你若使用超过指定数目的答案,将会被扣分。
比如,如果问题规定你的答案不能超过 3 个字,而正确答案是“black leather coat” ,你的答案若是“coat of black leather”,就算答错。
在雅思听力考试中,凡是要求写答案的题目要求中都会出现“no more than three words” ,“no more than 2 words”或“only one word or number”的字样。
考生在写答案的时候要特别注意这些要求。
很多人可能最熟悉的是“no more than three words” ,容易忽略“no more than 2 words”。
在此,我建议学生在预测的过程中把题目要求中的字数要求勾出来,这样就可以避免类似的低级错误。
关于字数要求的满足,我建议同学们使用两个得到考官认可的技巧:1) 省略小品词---如果答案总字数超过题目要求的时候,我们可以省略答案中的一些连词、冠词和介词。
比如: (a) double bedroom, near (the) railway station, (in the) entrance hall 等等。
像 AND,OR 等一些词都可以省略。
2) 加连字符---我们还可以在一些相关的单词之间加上连字符。
比如:a double bedroom 可以写成 a double-bedroom, near the railway station 可以写成 near the railway-station, in the entrance hall 可以写成 in the entrance-hall。
7、如果是填充题,你只需要把正确答案写在答题纸上。
比如要填充“in the ____ ”,正确答案应该是“morning” ,而你如果写“in the morning”,就算答错。
关于该问题,一位叫做Steve Ruston 的前考官明确表示,如果重复题目中的任何一个,哪怕是一个小品词都会影响得分。
在此,我建议大家在听之前一定要做好预测的工作,作完题目在抄写完答案之后一定要注意检查答案是否重复了题目中的单词。
8、所有答案必须拼写正确(包括括号中的词)。
在雅思听力考试中,只要出现拼写错误,不得分。
但是有一个例外:如果答案是没有拼写的人名或者地名,只要你的答案符合读音规则是可以接受的。
比如:Forest=Forrest,Allen=Alen,Anna=Ana。
建议考生在平时的学习当中要注意读音规则---一个字母组合会发不同的音; 不同的字母组合会发同一个音。
比如:OU 在 pour,out,double,shoulder,soup,could 中的发音都不相同;IE,EE,EA,AE,EO,OE,E,I,EY 等很多不同的字母组合都可以发/i:/的音。
读音规则好比是一个书架,考生认识的单词好比是书,如果单词都按照规律在大脑的“书架”上整齐排列,那么考生们的反映速度会快很多。
关于单、复数的问题,考官的建议是:如果不影响理解,两者均可。
我的建议是:从上下文进行分析,决定用哪一种形式。
如果无法判断,复数相对比较保险。
因为在一般情况下,只要不是特指,英语习惯用复数形式。
9、美式或英式拼写方法都可以接受。
英语考试中,单词的拼写一般都接受来自不同国家的习惯性拼写,当然IELTS 也不例外。
比如:neighbour=neighbor, metre=meter。
在此,Steve Ruston 建议大家在写答案的时候统一用某一个类别的拼写,不要交叉使用。
另外,在写答案的时候可以用你习惯的单词来回答问题。
比如:shopping mall=shopping center,flat=apartment, dustbin=garbage can。
但是也要注意单词使用的统一性,不要一处用美国英语,而另外一个地方又用英式英语。
10、所有数字、日期、货币等的标准替代符号均可接受。
在雅思听力考试中会经常把数字、日期和货币作为考点。
在写这一类答案的时候,既可以写成英语单词也可以写成阿拉伯数字或者是金钱符号。
比如:twenty=20 ;ten percent=10%;July,20th=July,20 ;15dollars=$15;120pounds=£ 120。
在此我提醒大家要注意:关于金钱的单词要写在数字的后面,而符号要写在数字的前面。
建议大家使用阿拉伯数字和金钱符号,这样既节省时间又可以节约空间。
因为 10%只算一个单词,而 ten percent 则算两个单词。
另外,使用这些符号也不容易犯错误。
有一个需要特别注意的是:20 minutes 30 seconds 不能写成20’30’’ ,只能写成 20.5 minutes。
因为 20 feet 30 inches 在英语中的习惯性表达方式也是20’30’’ ,这样会引起歧义。
11、所有标准缩写均可接受。
关于缩写的问题,雅思听力考试经常会出现。
比如:街道有很多种说法,Street=St,Road=Rd,Boulevard=Blvd,Avenue=Ave,Drive=Dr;一些组织,United Nations=UN,United Nations Education Science and Culture Organization=UNESCO;一些称呼,Doctor=Dr,Professor=Prof,等等。

2016年雅思听力Test3Section2题目解析
Early learning childcare center enrolment form 难度点评: 多选题-题⼲为常规题⼲,没有特殊限定条件,选项从五个⽅⾯展开,因此要提前审查,适当标记关键词。
单选题-常规难度 匹配题-较简单,原因在于选项为专有名词,所以同意替换出现在题⼲上。
但是往往此类匹配题,⾳频中会将各个选项进⾏类⽐混淆,考⽣的答题感受就是每⼀个选项都有听到,但是却与题⼲对应不上。
在本题中,同学们仔细观察题⼲,就会发现主语均为‘it’,指代所有选项中的专有名词,所以选项在⾳频中应该多数作为句⼦的主语,评论‘comment’跟随其后。
建议考⽣在解答此类匹配题时,笔尖指着选项,并随着主语的切换⽽移动笔尖,眼睛看着题⼲,当听到⾳频中出现近意信息时果断选择笔尖指着的选项。
此类匹配题相对于同意替换出现在选项中的匹配题略简单,但是往往⾳频节奏较快,题⽬之间没有太多的过渡句,同学们千万跟上⾳频节奏。
Q11 and 12, 题⼲关键词things以及专有名词词组Dolphin conservation Trust,同学们理解成⼀个组织就可以了,会在⾳频中完整出现,作为多选题的开始的路标词。
选项关键词: A. Children, most, membership B. Largest C. Finance campaigns D. Employs experts E. Volunteer various 答案句1:The charity uses its money to support campaigns - for example, for changes in fishing policy and so forth。
其中money对应C选项finance,finance译为动词,供给…经费;campaigns对应选项中的campaigns,fishing policy译为捕鱼政策,对应选项中fishing practices。
雅思听力场景技巧
校园生活场景(上)校园生活场景下有很多典型的西方教育的学习及相关场景。
考生若想要在此类场景稳操胜券就必须对西方的高等教育体制、教学方式和留学生在西方的学习概况等有一些了解。
那么朗阁海外考试研究中心通过对历年雅思考试真题的不断总结和研究,探出该场景的出题思路,发现其主要集中了以下三大考点特征:↘考点之一:学术主题讨论◆关键词汇:Lecture, tutorial, seminar, presentation etc.在很多西方教学理念中,培养学生独立学习的意识和能力是最重要的理念之一,这种理念渗透到了学校教学的方方面面。
学校鼓励学生主动学习,而不是被动听课和死记硬背。
要求学生独立地进行研究,收集和分析自己或团队获取的数据,勇于提出问题,勇于向老师和同学进行符合逻辑性的争辩。
课堂上,教师除讲解外,更多的是给予学生启迪,让学生思考和发表观点。
有什么疑问,学生课后可以直接去找老师预约时间见面。
此外,教师还会要求学生安排相当时间在图书馆或实验室做自我研究工作,鼓励学生主动地进行学习和科研,从而激发学生的创新意识。
以上的种种均是去往西方海外留学必将经历的。
因此,在考试中,考生经常能听到学生和学生之间或老师和学生之间的讨论,有对学习方法的讨论,也有对某一学术主题展开讨论。
而一般来讲,这些讨论会以lecture/report, tutorial、seminar、presentation等形式展开。
Lecturelecture一般以老师讲,学生听为主,可能当中提出一些问题。
【典型范例】:Instruction: Dr. Linda Graycar who is from the City Institute for the Blind is talking about the system of writing for the blind known as Braille.1. What can the combined dots represent?A both letters and wordsB only individual wordsC only letters of the alphabet2. What is unusual about the way Braille is written?A It can only be written using a machine.B The texts have to be read backwards.C Handwritten Braille is created in reverse.【范例原文】:Dr. Graycar: Well, it's a system of touch reading which uses anarrangement of raised dots called a cell. Braille numbered the dotpositions 1-2-3 downward on the left and 4-5-6 downward on theright, The letters of the alphabet are then formed by usingdifferent combinations of these dots.Student: So is the writing system based on the alphabet with each word being individually spelt out?Dr. Graycar: Well ... it's not quite that simple, I'm afraid! For instance, the first 10 letters of the alphabet are Formed using dots 1, 2, 4 and5. But Braille also has its own short forms for common words. Forexample, 'b' for the word 'but' and 'h' for 'have' – there are manyother contractions like this.Student: Can it be written by hand or do you need a machine to produce Braille?Dr. Graycar: Well, you can write it by hand on to paper with a device calleda slate and stylus but the trick is that you have to writebackwards . . . e.g. from right to left so that then when you turnyour sheet over, the dots face upwards and can be read likeEnglish from left to right.【范例分析】: 范例是一位教授介绍一种盲文体。

2016年雅思听力Test3Section1题目解析
Early learning childcare center enrolment form 难度点评: -⼲扰信息多,⼏乎每⼀个问题都在⾳频中给出了⾄少两个备选答案,但⼀般以两⼈意见达成⼀致的为准,往往此类信息置后。
-字母M/N的区分 -答案信息前置,在通过题⼲信息定位到答案句时,其中的答案信息为代词,指代之前已经提到的答案,详见第10题。
Personal details: Q1,题⼲出现age,反推答案句为表达年龄的句式,重点听‘how old…your daughter’s age is…’等问句后内容。
答案句:She’s three now but she turns four next month….I’ll put four down,以转折后信息为准,答案为4。
拓展:关于雅思听⼒中答案词为数字时的写法,建议写阿拉伯数字,虽然本题写成four也正确,但是写成阿拉伯数字的优势有两个,⼀是不会产⽣拼写错误;⼆是当字数要求为‘No more than one word and/or a number’时,如果答案为‘两个⽅向’,写成two directions,错误。
写成2directions正确。
因此,为了规避犯错风险,建议考⽣把数字均写成阿拉伯数字形式。
Q2,题⼲出现address,注意听⼒中出现过address的三个常见发⾳,分别为:[ə'dres],[ˈædres],[ə'dri:s]。
地址格式:数字+名称+街道,本题道路名称给出了拼写,但是要注意M/N的区分。
⼀般来说,单词在拼写之前,会先发⾳,考⽣可以现根据发⾳规律预测字母。
M/N的另⼀个区分点在于是否有闭⼝⾳,M⾳频中含有闭⼝⾳m,因此听到闭⼝⾳时往往为字母M。
答案句:It’s 46 Wombat Road, that’s W-O-M-B-A-T. Childcare Information Q3,通过空前Monday以及and预测答案信息为星期,星期中注意星期三Wednesday,星期四Thursday,星期⼆Tuesday,星期六Saturday的拼写,常考察。

So a clean notepad and a working, free-flowing pen is your insurance policy. Recording devices have their advantages as well.

Transformed into research subjects at the University of Bristol, they raced along a tabletop foraging for food - and then, remarkably, returned to guide others. Time and again, followers trailed behind leaders, darting this way and that along the route, presumably to memorise landmarks. Once a follower got its bearings, it tapped the leader with its antennae, prompting the lesson to literally proceed to the next step. The ants were only looking for food, but the researchers said the careful way the leaders led followers - thereby turning them into leaders in their own right - marked the Temnothorax albipennis ant as the very first example of a non-human animal exhibiting teaching behaviour."Tandem running is an example of teaching, to our knowledge the first in a non-human animal, that involves bidirectional feedback between teacher and pupil," remarks Nigel Franks, professor of animal behaviour and ecology, whose paper on the ant educators was published last week in the journal Nature.No sooner was the paper published, of course, than another educator questioned it. Marc Hauser, a psychologist andbiologist and one of the scientists who came up with the definition of teaching, said it wasunclear whether the ants had learned a new skill or merely acquired new information.Later, Franks took a further study and found that there were even races between leaders. With the guidance of leaders, ants could find food faster. But the help comes at a cost for the leader, who normally would have reached the food about four times faster if not hampered by a follower.This means the hypothesis that the leaders deliberately slowed down inorder to pass the skills on to the followers seems potentially valid. His ideas were advocated by the students who carried out the video projectwith him.Opposing views still arose. however. Hauser noted that mere communicationof information is commonplace in the animal world. Consider a species, for example, that uses alarm calls to warn fellow members about the presenceof a predator. Sounding the alarm can be costly, because the animal may draw the attention of the predator to itself: But it allows others to flee to safety, ""Would you call this teaching?" wrote Hauser. '"The caller incurs a cost. The naive animals gain a benefit and new knowledge that better enables them to learn about the predator's location than if thecaller had not called. This happens throughout the animal kingdom, but we don't call it teaching, even though it is clearly transfer of information."Tim Caro, a zoologist, presented two cases of animalcommunication. He found that cheetah mothers that take their cubs along on hunts gradually allow their cubs to do more of the hunting -- going, for example, from killing a gazelle and allowing young cubs to eat to merely tripping the gazelle and letting the cubs finish it off. At one level, such behaviour might be called teaching ——except the mother was not really teaching the cubs to hunt but mere/y facilitating various stages of learning. In another instance, birds watching, other birds using a stick to locate food such as insects and so on, are observed to do the same thing themselves while finding food later. .Psychologists study animal behaviour in part to understand theevolutionary roots of human behaviour, Hauser said. The challenge in understanding whether other animals truly teach one another, he added, is that human teaching involves a "theory of mind" - teachers are aware that students don't know somethi ng. He questioned whether Franks’ leader ants really knew that the follower ants were ignorant, Could they simply have been following an instinctive rule to proceed when the followers tapped them on the legs or abdomen? And did leaders that led the way to food ——only to find that it had been removed by the experimenter——incur the wrath of followers?That, Hauser said, would suggest that the follower ant actually knew the leader was more knowledgeable and not merely following an instinctive routine itself.The controversy went on, and for a good reason. The occurrence of teaching in ants, if proven to be true, indicates that teaching can evolve in animals with tiny brains. It is probably the value of information insocial animals that determines when teaching will evolve,rather than the constraints of brain size.Bennett Galef Jr., a psychologist who studies animal behaviour and social learning at McMaster University in Canada, maintained that ants were unlikely to have a "theory of mind" - meaning that leaders and followers may well have been following instinctive routines that were not based on an understanding of what was happening in another ant's brain. He warned that scientists may be barking up the wrong tree when they look not only for examples of humanlike behaviour among other animals but humanlike thinking that underlies such behaviour. Animals may behave in ways similar to humans without a similar cognitive system, he said, so the behaviour is not necessarily a good guide into how humans came to think the way they do.

However, during the twentieth century a number of new synthetic materials, called plastics, superseded natural rubber in all but a few applications.Rubber is a polymer ——a compound containing large molecules that are formed by the bonding of many smaller, simpler units, repeated over andover again. The same bonding principle — polymerisation —underlies the creation of a huge range of plastics by the chemical industry.The first plastic was developed as a result of a competition in the USA.In the 1860s, $10,000 was offered to anybody who could replace ivory ——supplies of which were declining ——with something equally good as a material for making billiard balls. The prize was won by John Wesley Hyatt with a material called celluloid. Celluloid was made by dissolving cellulose, a carbohydrate derived from plants, in a solution of camphor dissolved in ethanol. This new material rapidly found uses in the manufacture of products such as knife handles, detachable collars and cuffs, spectacle frames and photographic, film. Without celluloid, thefilm industry could never have got off the ground at the end of the 19th century.Celluloid can be repeatedly softened and reshaped by heat, and is known as a thermoplastic. In 1907 Leo Baekeland, a Belgian chemist working in the USA, invented a different kind ofplastic by causing phenol and formaldehyde to react together. Baekeland called the material Bakelite,and it was the first of the thermosets —— plastics that can be cast and moulded while hot, but cannot be softened by heat and reshaped once they have set. Bakelite was a good insulator. and was resistant to water, acids and moderate heat. With these properties it was soon being used in the manufacture of switches, household items, such as knife handles, and electrical components for cars.Soon chemists began looking for other small molecules that could be strung together to make polymers. In the 1930s, British chemists discovered that the gas ethylene would polymerise under heat and pressure to form a thermoplastic they called polythene,. Polypropylene followed in the 1950s. Both were used to mdke bottles, pipes and plastic bags. A small change in the starting material - replacing a hydrogen atom in ethylene with a chlorine atom ——produced PVC (polyvinyl chloride), a hard, fireproof plastic suitable for drains and gutters. And by adding certain chemicals,a soft form of PVC could be produced, suitable as a substitute for rubberin items such as waterproof clothing. A closely related plastic was Teflon, or PTFE [polytetrafluoroethylene). This had a very low coefficient of friction, making it ideal for bearings, rollers, and non-stick frying pans. Polystyrene, developed during the 1930s in Germany, was a clear, glass-like material, used in food containers, domestic appliances and toys. Expanded polystyrene —— a white,rigid foam —— was widely used in packaging and insulation. Polyurethone,.s, also developed in Germany,found uses as adhesives, coatings, and —— in the form of rigid foams -as insulation materials. They are all produced from chemicals derived from crude oil, which contains exactly the same elements —carbon and hydrogen — as many plastics.The first of the man-made fibres, nylon, was also created in the 1930s.Its inventor was a chemist called Wallace Carothers, who worked for the Du Pont company in the USA. He found that under the right conditions, two chemicals ——hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid ——would form a polymer that could be pumped out through holes and then stretched to form long glossy threads that could be woven like silk. Its first use was to make parachutes for the US armed forces in World War II. In the post-war years nylon completely replaced silk in the manufacture of stockings. Subsequently many other synthetic fibres joined nylon, including Orlon, Acrilan and Terylene. Today most garments are made of a blend of natural fibres, such as cotton and wool, and man-made fibres that make fabrics easier to look after.The great strength of plastic is its indestructibility. However, this quality is also something of a drawback: beaches all over the world, even on the remotest islands, are littered with plastic bottles that nothing can destroy. Nor is it very easy to recycle plastics, as different types of plastic are often used in the same items and call for different treatments. Plastics can be made biodegradable by incorporating into their structure a material such as starch, which is attacked by bacteria and causes the plastic to fall apart. Other materials can be incorporated that gradually decay in sunlight ——although bottles made of such materials have to be stored in the dark, to ensure that they donot disintegrate before they have been used.Questions 14-20 Complete the table below.Choose NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS from the passage for each answer.Write your answers in boxes 14-20 on your answer sheet.Questions 21-26Do the following statements agree with the information given in Reading Passage 2.In boxes 21-26 on your answer sheet, writeTRUE if the statements agrees with the information FALSE if the statements contradicts with the informationNOT GIVEN if there is no information on this21 The chemical structure of plastic is very different from that of rubber.22 John Wesley was a famous chemist.23 Celluloid and Bakelite react to heat in the same way.24 The mix of different varieties of plastic can make the recycling more difficult.25 Adding starch into plastic can make plastic more durable.26 Some plastic containers have to be preserved in special conditions. READING PASSAGE 3You shoulcl spend about 20 minutes on Questions 27-40, which are based on Reading Passage 3 below.Global Warming in New ZealandFor many environmentalists, the world seems to be getting warmer. As the nearest country of South Polar Region, New Zealand has maintained an upward trend in its average temperature in the past few years. However,the temperature in New Zealand will go up 40C in the next century whilethe polar region will go up more than 60C. The different pictures of temperature stem from its surrounding ocean which acts like the air conditioner. Thus New Zealand is comparatively fortunate.Scientifically speaking, this temperature phenomenon in New Zealand originated from what researchers call "SAM" {Southern Annular Mode), which refers to the wind belt that circles the Southern Oceans including New Zealand and Antarctica. Yet recent work has revealed that changes in SAM in New Zealand have resulted in a weakening of moisture during the summer, and more rainfall in other seasons. A bigger problem may turn out to be heavier droughts for agricultural activities because of more water loss from soil, resulting in poorer harvest before winter when the rainfall arrive too late to rescue.Among all the calamities posed by drought, moisture deficit ranks the first. Moisture deficit is the gap between the water plants need duringthe growing season and the water the earth can offer. Measures of moisture deficit were at their highest since the 1970s in New Zealand. Meanwhile, ecological analyses clearly show moisture deficit is imposed at different growth stage of crops. If moisture deficit occurs around a crucial growth stage, it will cause about 22% reduction in grain yield as opposed to moisture deficit at vegetative phase.Global warming is not only affecting agriculture production. Whenscientists say the country's snow pack and glaciers are melting at an alarming rate due to global warming, the climate is putting another strain on the local places. For example, when the development of global warmingis accompanied by the falling snow line, the local skiing industry comes into a crisis. The snow line may move up as the temperature goes up, and then the snow at the bottom will melt earlier. Fortunately, it is going to be favourable for the local skiing industry to tide over tough periods since the quantities of snowfall in some areas are more likely to increase. What is the reaction of glacier region? The climate change can be reflected in the glacier region in southern New Zealand or land covered by ice and snow. The reaction of a glacier to a climatic change involves a complex chain of processes. Over time periods of years to several decades, cumulative changes in mass balance cause volume and thickness changes, which will affect the flow of ice via altered internal deformation and basal sliding. This dynamic reaction finally leads to glacier length changes, the advance or retreat of glacier tongues. Undoubtedly, glacier mass balance is a more direct signal of annual atmospheric conditions.The latest research result of National Institute of Water and Atmospheric (NIWA) Research shows that glaciers line keeps moving up because of theimpacts of global warming. Further losses of ice can be reflected in Mt. Cook Region. By 1996, a 14 km long sector of the glacier had melted down forming a melt lake (Hooker Lake) with a volume. Melting of the glacier front at a rate of 40 m/yr will cause the glacier to retreat at a rather uniform rate. Therefore, the lake will continue to grow until it reachesthe glacier bed.A direct result of the melting glaciers is the change of high tides that serves the main factor for sea level rise. The trend of sea level risewill bring a threat to the groundwater system for its hyper-saline groundwater and then pose a possibility to decrease the agricultural production. Many experts believe that the best way to counter this trendis to give a longer-term view of sea level change in New Zealand. Indeed, the coastal boundaries need to be upgraded and redefined.There is no doubt that global warming has affected New Zealand in many aspects. The emphasis on the global warming should be based on the joints efforts of local people and experts who conquer the tough period. For instance, farmers are taking a long term, multi-generational approach to adjust the breeds and species according to the temperature, Agriculturists also find ways to tackle the problems that may bring to the soil. In broad terms, going forward, the systemic resilience that's been going on a long time in the ecosystem will continue.How about animals' reaction? Experts have surprisingly realised that animals have unconventional adaptation to global warming. A study has looked at sea turtles on a few northern beaches in New Zealand and it is very interesting to find that sea turtles can become male of female according to the temperature. Further researches will try to find out how rising temperatures would affect the ratio of sex reversal in their growth. Clearly, the temperature of the nest plays a vital role in the sexes of the baby turtles,Tackling the problems of global warming is never easy in New Zealand, because records show the slow process of global warming may have adifferent impact on various regions. For New Zealand, the emission of carbon dioxide only accounts for % of the world's total, which has met the governmental standard. However, (NewZealand's effort counts only a tip of the iceberg. So far, global warming has been a world issue that stillhangs in an ambiguous future.Questions 27-32Choose the correct letter, A, B, C or D.Write the correct letter in boxes 27-32 on your answer sheet.27 What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A The temperature in the polar region will increase less than thatin New Zealand in the next century.B The weather and climate of New Zealand is very important to itspeople because of its close location to the polar region.C The air condition in New Zealand will maintain a high quality because of the ocean.D The temperature of New Zealand will increase less than that ofother regions in the next 100 years because it is surrounded bysea.28 What is one effect of the wind belt that circles the Southern Oceans?A New Zealand will have more moisture in winds in summer.B New Zealand needs to face droughts more often in hotter months in a year.C Soil water will increase as a result of weakening moisture in the winds.D Agricultural production will be reduced as a result of more rainfall in other seasons.29 What does "moisture deficit" mean to the grain and crops?A The growing condition will be very tough for crops.B The growing season of some plants can hardly be determined.C There will be a huge gap between the water plants needed and the water the earth can offer.D The soil of grain and crops in New Zealand reached its lowest production since 1970s.30 What changes will happen to skiing industry due to the global warming phenomenon?A The skiing station may lower the altitude of skiing.B Part of the skiing station needs to move to the north.C The snowfall may increase in part of the skiing station.D The local skiing station may likely to make a profit because of the snowfall increase.31 Cumulative changes over a long period of time in mass balance will lead toA alterations in the volume and thickness of glaciers,B faster changes in internal deformation And basal sliding.C larger length of glaciers.D retreat of glacier tongues as a result of change in annual atmospheric conditions.32 Why does the writer mention in the sixth paragraph?A To use a particular example to explain the effects brought by glacier melting.B To emphasize the severance of the further loss of ice in Mt.
