TPO4-leture1-animal behavior

TPO4-leture1-animal behavior

Listen to part of a lecture in a biology class.The class is discussing animal behavior.Okay Ok , the next kind of animal behavior I want to talk aboutmight be familiar to you.You may have seen, for example,a bird that's in a the middle of a mating ritual.and suddenly it stops and prines preens .You know, takes a few moments to straight straighten its feathers.and then returns to the mating ritual.This kind of behavior, thisdoing something that seems completely out of place.It's is what we call a displacement activity.Displacement activities are activities that animals engaged animal's engaging in when they have conflicting drives.If we take our example for from a minute ago if the bird is afraid of its mate,it's conflicted.It wants to mate, but it's also afraid and wants to run away.So instead, it starts grooming itself.So the displacement activitythe grooming, the straightening of its feathersseems to be an irrelevant behavior.So what do you think another example of the a displacement activity mightbe? How about an animal that , um, instead of fighting its enemy or running away, it attacks a plant or a bush.That's a really good suggestion, Carol Karl .But that's called redirecting.The animal is redirecting its behavior to another object.In this case, the plant or the bush.But that's not an irrelevant or inappropriate behavior.The behavior makes sense.it's appropriate under the circumstances, but what doesn't make sense is the object behaviors direct the behavior's directed towards.Okay Ok , who else? Carol?I think I've read in another class about an experimentwere where an object that the animal was afraid of was put next to its food.next to the animal's food.And the animal, it was conflicted between confronting the objectand eating the food,so insteadLike that? That's exactly what I mean.Display occurred Displacement occurs because the animal 's got too two conflicting drives.to two competing urges. In this cas case ,fear and hunger.And what happens is they inhabit inhibit each other, theycancel each other out in a way.And a thirdseemingly irrelevant behavior surfacesthrough a process that we calldisinhibition.Now in disinhibition,the basic idea is thattwo drives that seem to inhibit, to hold back a third drive..Or, Well, they get re getting in a way of each other in a in a conflict situation and somehow loose lose control.loose lose theirinhibiting effect on that third behavior, which means that the thirddrive surfaces it's expressed in the animals animal's behavior.Now this these displacement activities can include feeding,drinking, grooming,even sleeping, these are what were we callcomfort behavior. Sowhy do you thinkdisplacement activities are so often comfort behaviors?such as grooming?Maybe because it's easy for them to do?I mean grooming is like one of the most accessible thing animals things an animal can do, it's something they do all the time.And they have the stimulates stimulus right there.on the outside of their bodies in order to do the grooming.or the if food is right in front of them.basically they don't have to think very much about those behaviors.Professor, isn't it possible that animals' groom because they've got messed up a little from fighting or mating?I mean if a bird's feather feathers get ruffled,or an animal's fur,maybe it's not so strang strange for them to stop and tidy its themselves up for at thatThat's another possible reason, although it doesn't necessarily explain other behaviors, such as eating, drinking, or sleeping.What's interesting is the that studies have been done that suggest that the animal's environment may play a part in determining what kind of behavior it displays.For example, there's a bird,the wood thrush.Anyway, when the wood thrush is in a tact escaped an attack-escape conflict,that is it's caused caught between the two urges to escape from or to intact attack an enemy., if It is siting sitting on a horizontal branch, it 'll wipe its peak beak on a its perch..If it is siting sitting on a vertical branch,it 'll groom its brus breast feathers.The immediate environment of the bird is its immediateIt's um, its relationship to its immediate environmentseems to play a part in which behavior would will display.Aboboo校对:正确率(90.7%) 总数(729) 正确(661) 简拼(2) 错拼纠错 (55) 多拼(4) 漏拼(14)。

Oh! That’s a coincidence. The museum director sent a fax about you…your two-month review, um, your job review.MALE STUDENT: Oh, OK. I-I guess we can do that first.FEMALE EMPLOYEE: Alright. Uh, let’s see…overall, you’re doing a good job. I have to stress that. But the director did note that you invited friends over during working hours. Instead of greeting visitors and answering questions about the outdoor sculpture garden, like you were supposed to, you talked with your friends.MALE STUDENT: It was only that one time. And they just showed up. I-I did not invite them. I straightened it out with the director.FEMALE EMPLOYEE: OK. But, of course, you’re still expected to behave professionally, do your job.MALE STUDENT: Yeah, I know. But actually, uh, the fact is, I’d really like to work somewhere else. Maybe in a library, or as a tutor somewhere? I was hoping you could help. I, uh, I brought my updated résumé.FEMALE EMPLOYEE: Well, I don’t know—you applied at the museum because you’re a fine-arts major. And you apparently made a very good impression on the museum director at your interview. You asked good questions about the sculptures and took notes, it says here. That’s why they hired you and why they were willing to pay you. Museums normally use volunteers, you know.MALE STUDENT: I did enjoy learning about the sculptures.FEMALE EMPLOYEE: Good, and your job is to share that information with the public. MALE STUDENT: Yeah, I know. But I’m always worried I’ll give out wrong information. And if I can’t answer a question, it’s embarrassing, you know?FEMALE EMPLOYEE: So the problem is the public nature of your work?MALE STUDENT: Yeah. I didn’t realize how uncomfortable I’d feel doing this. I applied there because I’d like to be a museum curator someday.FEMALE EMPLOYEE: Well, there are museum jobs that don’t involve interacting with the public. You know, working behind the scenes. You could help set up exhibits, document new acquisitions, maybe work as an assistant in the curator’s office. It wouldn’t hurt to ask about other opportunities there.MALE STUDENT: Would you call and ask if I could, like you said, work with the curator? I’ve only met her a couple times, but she…FEMALE EMPLOYEE: You know, I think you should call. Tell the curator what you toldme, and ask if they could use any help.MALE STUDENT: What if she says no?FEMALE EMPLOYEE: Well, you could still ask for information that might help you in the future, like what courses you should take and what kind of work experience is necessary to become a curator.MALE STUDENT: Yeah, that would definitely help. But then would you be willing to help me find a job somewhere else?FEMALE EMPLOYEE: I suppose, if it came to that. But you know, if you just educated yourself more about the sculpture garden, then you’d gain more confidence—and maybe enjoy your current job more.MALE STUDENT: Yeah, I guess you’re right.题目1.Why does the student go to the work-study office?A.

People today have healthier lifestyles than people did 100 years ago.Use specific examples and details to support your opinion.托福TPO46口语task2答题要领(1) Specifically express your opinion, ie, agree or disagree the statement.(2) State specific reasons or give relevant examples to support your opinion.托福TPO46口语task2观点提示Agree(1) 100 years ago, people were suffering from war and turmoil, which made it impossible to pay special attention to healthy lifestyles. What people cared most was not to starve to death.(2) Owing to the development of technology and medicine, people today pay more attention to some health issues, and thus live longer than people did 100 years ago.Disagree(1) Environmental pollution has exerted negative influence on peoples health. For example, the polluted air has increased the possibility of lung cancer.(2) The fast space of todays life forces people to overwork and stay up late, which will do harm to their health.托福TPO46口语task2模板(1) I agree/disagree with the statement.(2) The specific reasons are(3) On the one hand, on the other hand,Q2I agree that people today have healthier lifestyles than they did 100 years ago. First, modern advancement in food safety and availability has led to proper nutrition and ahighly reduced chance of illness or death from unsafe food. Before, food would often be either scarce or spoiled, and there was little regulation on food production. Now with refrigeration, food science and eating the right food in the right amounts, all ensure that we can have a healthy and balanced diet. Also, nowadays, our understanding of the importance of fitness is much greater. It is common knowledge that staying fit and active is the key to being healthy. People often strive to exercise whether its outdoors, in a gym or at home to stay healthy.I do not agree that people have healthier lifestyles today than they did 100 years ago. First, in the past, humans grew their own food or purchased it from local farmers. The growing process was all natural and free from harmful chemicals. However, much food today contains lots of preservatives and additives that are unnatural. Also, before much more of our work required actual manual labor. For example, if you needed to get somewhere, you had to walk and most chores were done by hand. These are examples of daily exercises to help us to keep fit. But today, machines do most of our work. We drive our cars to go anywhere andrely on dishwashers or robots to do the work for us.托福口语考试怎么摆脱中式〔英语〕曾经有一个疑似伊丽莎白女王的账号在twitter上吐槽:For the avoidance of doubt, there is no such thing as American English.
