2021年7月1日雅思閱讀考題回顧

　　上周又結束了一場雅思考試，還在備考的同學心里有沒有壓力呢，今天南京朗閣小編帶大家回顧一下雅思閱讀考題，大家可以自己先練習一下，然后取得一個好成績哦，本月報名朗閣雅思課程優惠多多哦，

　　P1 戲劇與劇院

　　P2 對人和環境都有利的建筑設計

　　P3 殺人鯨

　　朗閣教師點評

　　1. 本次考試難度中等。

　　2. 整體分析：涉及文化類(P1)、科技類(P2)、生物類(P3)。

　　本場考試三篇文章作為7月份第一場考試，還是有一定難度的，文章內容整體雖然比較易懂，但出現比較晦澀難懂的學術性文章，第一篇共兩個題型(判斷和填空)，定位比較輕松，話題略生僻;第二篇文章為新題，雖然文章內容沒有太大難度，但行文較學術化;第三篇為說明性質文體，話題能夠引起興趣，但難度相比略高。

　　3. 主要題型：本次考試配對題型主要出現在第二篇中的人名觀點，但細節題比例依舊維持之前考試風格，且填空題型較多，相對更容易得分第一篇及第三篇無論填空還是判斷，都比較好定位。

　　4. 文章分析：第一篇文章主要介紹了戲劇的發展及劇院的產生;

　　第二篇文章講述各個建筑設計與環境的關系，如何利用建筑設計改善環境;

　　第三篇：主要介紹勒科學家對于殺人鯨的研究;

　　5. 部分答案及參考文章：

　　Passage 1：

　　題型：判斷5+填空8

　　(文章待補充)

　　技巧分析：本文以舊為常規雙細節搭配，考生應盡可能利用定位法找出答案，全細節文章，考生應注意題目的邏輯順序，同時留意兩個題型間的關系，如第二個題型的首題定位如何快速確定;填空題多注重空格分析的使用，從而提高解題效率;判斷題要注意定位答案句的完整性，確定完整閱讀答案句在做出判斷。

　　Passage 2：

　　題型：待補充

　　Passage 3：

　　題型：待補充

　　Killer whales create and visit social clubs just like people do, scientists have discovered.Up to 100 fish-eating killer whales come togetherin the Avacha Gulf, off the coast of Russia.But no-one knew why these orcas form these huge superpods, when they normally live in smaller groups.

　　Now scientists report in the Journal of Ethology that these groups act as clubs in which the killer whales form and maintain social ties.

　　Fish-eating killer whales (Orcinus orca) in the Avacha Gulf live in stable groups called pods that contain an average of ten individuals and up to 20 in the largest pods.But researchers have seen up to eight of these pods coming together to form large groups of up to 100 animals.

　　These large aggregations of pods are seen in numerous places around the world where large numbers of killer whales occur such as British Columbia, Alaska, Iceland and Antarctica.It is unlikely that the whales gather for protection as they have no natural predators.In the past researchers have suggested that the killer whales meet to increase their foraging success or to breed.But the behaviour has not been quantified before.

　　To investigate, Olga Filatova of the Moscow State University and colleagues from the Far East Russia Orca project observed and photographed whales in the Avacha Gulf from a 4m long boat."At first we might see just a few spouts on the horizon. Then quickly we move among them, keeping a distance of a hundred metres so as not to bother them," explained project co-director Erich Hoyt of the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society (WDCS), which provided the majority of funding for the project.

　　"As far as the eye can see, in every direction you see groupings of two to six killer whales surfacing, spouting then dipping below the surface."

　　"Each grouping has a focal mother figure surrounded by her offspring, some of whom may be full grown males with up to 2m dorsal fins that tower over the females," he says.They also used a special underwater directional microphone called a hydrophone to record the sound of the killer whale vocalisations. Each pod of fish-eating killer whales in the Avacha Gulf has a specific vocal dialect which could be pinpointed by the hydrophone, while individual killer whales can also be identified by the shape of their dorsal fins and markings.That allowed the scientists to analyse the killer whales' behaviour.

　　The whales rarely forage and feed when they gather into a much larger superpod, the scientists found.That suggests they do not gather to herd fish or increase their foraging success. In fact, say the scientists, depending on the type of prey, a superpod might have the effect of decreasing the feeding success of each whale making it unproductive to feed in large groups.

　　However, the killer whales did interact much more during these large gatherings that lasted from a few hours to almost half a day.When meeting killer whales from other family pods, they made contact with each other, swam in synchrony and rubbed flippers much more often, the researchers found.Sexual activity also increased, suggesting that these big aggregations provide a chance to assess potential breeding partners.However, these behaviours likely have a greater function beyond reproduction, the scientists believe.

　　Club life

　　They enable the killer whales to establish and maintain social bonds and it is for that reason that the killer whales gather in core meeting areas and form large aggregations.

　　Maintaining social bonds is crucial for many social mammals which live and hunt together.But maintaining connections with the wider community may be especially important for killer whales, which tend to live long lives in relatively small communities with low birth rates.Killer whales also face challenges with high calf mortality rates which may be as high as 50% in the first six months."Understanding more about their social lives, including their reproduction, will be crucial to our future understanding of them and our ability to keep their population healthy," Hoyt says.

　　The team has also recently extended the study outside of the Avacha Gulf further north and south along the Kamchatka coast and to the offshore Commander Islands to learn more about other killer whale groups, including the mammal-eating type of killer whale that feeds on porpoises, seals and sea otters.

　　考試預測

　　1. 2021年7月第一場考試，難度正常，本月還未出現句子完成配對，考生應著重準備。對于本月的下一場考試，考生應沉著應對，重點練習單選題型及填空，減少定位時間，提高定位準度，對接下來的考試都是有明顯幫助的。

　　2. 下場考試的話題可能依舊為發展史類，技術類，教育類。

　　3. 重點瀏覽2019年機經。
