TPO4,黄金阅读第19篇
Deer Populations of the Puget Sound
Paragraph 2: Nearly any kind of plant of the forest understory can be part of a deer's diet. Where the forest inhibits the growth of grass and other meadow plants, the black-tailed deer browses on huckleberry, salad, dogwood, and almost any other shrub or herb. But this is fair-weather feeding. What keeps the black-tailed deer alive in the harsher seasons of plant decoy and dormancy? One compensation for not hibernating is the built-in urge to migrate. Deer may move from high-elevation browse areas in summer down to the lowland areas in late fall. Even with snow on the ground, the high bushy understory is exposed; also snow and wind bring down leafy branches of cedar, hemlock, red alder, and other arboreal fodder.


2.
It can be inferred from the discussion in paragraph 2 that winter conditions
○ Cause some deer to hibernate
○ Make food unavailable in the highlands for deer (B选项是超级迷惑选项，迷惑性极其大。虽然这个选项的叙述是对的，但是可惜出现在定位句以外。所以面对出现在定位句内的C选项，即使在推断题中，也应该优先选择定位句以内范围的同义改写。)

○ Make it easier for deer to locate understory plants
○Prevent deer from migrating during the winter
这道题的解释，感觉有点牵强，没有理由排除掉一个由第二段推理出来的正确选项啊,B的推理完全正确，并且更像是推理，而D只是一句改写，不是题目所说的inferrde，请指点……
另外对这句：Deer may move from high-elevation browse areas in summer down to the lowland areas in late fall.
我理解是，Deer（in summer 时间状语）从high-elevation移到lowland areas （ in late fall时间状语）。和给的翻译不一样……请讲解下谢谢。


Paragraph 4：Reduction in numbers of game should have boded ill for their survival in later times. A worsening of the plight of deer was to be expected as settlers encroached on the land, logging, burning, and clearing, eventually replacing a wilderness landscape with roads, cities, towns, and factories. No doubt the numbers of deer declined still further. Recall the fate of the Columbian white-tailed deer, now in a protected status. But for the black-tailed deer, human pressure has had just the opposite effect. Wild life zoologist Hulmut Buechner(1953), in reviewing the nature of biotic changes in Washington through recorded time, Says that "since the early 1940s, the state has had more deer than at any other time in its history, the winter population fluctuating around approximately 320,000 deer (mule and black-tailed deer), which will yield about 65,000 of either sex and any age annually for an indefinite period.
9. Which of the following statements about deer populations is supported by the information in paragraph 4?
○Deer populations reached their highest point during the 1940s and then began to decline.
○The activities of settlers contributed in unexpected ways to the growth of some deer populations in later times.
○The cleaning of wilderness land for construction caused biotic changes from which the black-tailed deer population has never recovered.
○Since the 1940s the winter populations of deer have fluctuated more than the summer populations have.
（无端比较的出现，直接排除。）
能翻译下B吗？关键是growth of some deer populations ，是growth，增长？？？
还有A，“开始下降”哪里错了啊？文中是说那年是最好的，那后面当然是下降啊……我的理解。请指点谢谢


In addition to finding an increase of suitable browse, like huckleberry and vine maple, Arthur Einarsen, longtime game biologist in the Pacific Northwest, found quality of browse in the open areas to be substantially more nutritive.


11．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.
○Arthur Einarsen’s longtime family with the Pacific Northwest helped him discover areas where deer had an increase in suitable browse.
○Arthur Einarsen found that deforested feeding grounds provided deer with more and better food.
○Biologist like Einarsen believe it is important to find additional open areas with suitable browse for deer to inhabit.
○According to Einarsen, huckleberry and vine maple are examples of vegetation that may someday improve the nutrition of deer in the open areas of the Pacific Northwest.
deforested feeding grounds ，能解释下吗？
还有，D错在哪啊？

同问啊同问。
楼主，我第二题选的也是B，和你的考虑一样。
另外，这道题标准答案给的不是D，是C：Make it easier for deer to locate understory plants。这个你是不是看错了。
我觉得C是错的，因为原文的意思是，“尽管下了雪，（盖住了一些低矮的植物），但还是有比较高的露在地表可以吃”。这只是说雪的厚度不足以掩盖所有植物，而并不是C选项的“让鹿更容易找到植物”。
很不解，为什么选C不选B？好心人讲解一下谢谢！

斗胆探讨一下楼主提的另外两个问题。

9.B的翻译：移民的活动以一些令人意想不到的方式促进了后来某些鹿数量的增长。
原文的段意：移民大兴土木，无疑会使鹿的数量锐减。回想一下白尾鹿的命运就是这样--它们现在已经减少到了需要被保护的数量了。但是对于黑尾鹿来讲，人类活动起到了刚好相反的作用（意思就是说，它们的数量反而由于人类活动而增长了。也就是B选项说的growth）。一个动物学家HB在1953年说，鹿（杂交和黑尾鹿）的数量已经到达了1940年以来的最高点，blah,blah。
所以说B是正确的推论，人类盖房子修路不是为了保护黑尾鹿，但这些活动却事实上促进了这种鹿数量的增长。
A为什么错了呢？因为它说1940年是最高点，这不一定对。你只要想一下股市的走势图就知道了，也许是这种情况：从很久以前就开始下降，过了1940年也还在继续下降，后来慢慢回升，到了1953年，终于返回到1940年的水平了。如果是这样，那也可以讲“到达了1940年以来的最高值”。所以说，A不是原文的必然推论。

11.deforested feeding grounds的意思是，砍伐森林后形成的富含食物的土地。（记得前文说过森林inhibit了很多可供鹿食用的植物的生长吗？现在森林被人砍了，那些植物也就自动长出来了，可以吃了。这就是B选项末尾那个more代表的内容）。
D错，因为“may someday improve...”，而原文没有这层意思，原句末尾的more nutritive是即成事实。“科学家AE发现，这个地区的食物不仅变多了，并且变好了（更有营养了）。”

借楼主宝地顶贴，请各位版主和大牛回答一下！
本人12月12号考试，至今对第2题非常费解。。。。

斗胆说一下 这个第二题首先从首句说这个鹿能吃所有森林里没有被毁的东西 所以由此推断 冬天Highland的食物应该是被雪盖上了 鹿找不到 所以鹿到了lowland就更易定位食物 而b选项应该是推理了不止一步。ets出题感觉最多只让咱们推一步 不会多

第二题的D 应该是错在他并非要说的是那两个是example，主要说的是nutritive,注意题干要求的是选出essential information

晕了第二题到底是选B还是C还是D啊。。。
我的标准答案里写的是B=0=我选C滴
