Over the last 150 years, large
stretches of salmon habitat have
been eliminated by human activity:
Line mining, livestock grazing, timber
(5) harvesting, and agriculture as well
as recreational and urban devel-
opment. S的居住地遭人类活动的破坏
The numerical effect is
obvious: there are fewer salmon
in degraded regions than in pris-
(10) tine ones; however, habitat loss
also has the potential to reduce
genetic diversity. 虽然很少生长在退化的地区,但是 生活地方的减少有明显的影响导致genetic diversity减少
This is most
evident in cases where it results
in the extinction of entire salmon
(15) populations. genetic diversity导致的最明显后果
Indeed, most
analysts believe that some kind
of environmental degradation
underlies the demise of many
extinct salmon populations. 环境退化构成salmon灭绝的基础
(20) Although some rivers have
been recolonized, the unique
genes of the original populations
have been lost. 虽然环境有改善,但原始基因遗失
Large-scale disturbances in
(25) one locale also have the potential
to alter the genetic structure of
populations in neighboring areas,
even if those areas have pristine
habitats. 在某一地区大规模的骚动也会改变基因结构
Why? Although the
(30) homing instinct of salmon to their
natal stream is strong, a fraction
of the fish returning from the sea
(rarely more than 15 percent)
stray and spawn in nearby
(35) streams. 解释原因
Low levels of straying
are crucial, since the process
provides a source of novel
genes and a mechanism
by which a location can be
(40) repopulated should the fish
there disappear.
Yet high rates
of straying can be problematic(-)
because misdirected fish may
interbreed with the existing stock
(45) to such a degree that any local
adaptations that are present
become diluted. 少量没关系 大量就很有问题了
Straying
rates remain relatively low when
environmental conditions are
(50) stable, but can increase dramati-
cally when streams suffer severe
disturbance. disturbance 会引起大量的迷路
The 1980 volcanic
eruption of
for example, sent mud and debris
(55) into several tributaries of the
couple of years, steelhead trout
(a species included among the
salmonids) returning from the
(60) sea to spawn were forced to
find alternative streams. As
a consequence, their rates of
straying, initially 16 percent,
rose to more than 40 percent
(65) overall. 举例,火山爆发引起的disturbance
Although no one has quantified
changes in the rate of straying
as a result of the disturbances
caused by humans, there is no
(70) reason to suspect that the effect
would be qualitatively different
than what was seen in the
aftermath of the
Helens eruption. 人类的影响同样巨大
Such a dra-
(75) matic increase in straying from
damaged areas to more pristine
streams results in substantial
gene flow, which can in turn lower
the overall fitness of subsequent
generations. 后果
L11和L25都用了also表示并列,但是我看了好久都看不懂他们分别和哪一部分的内容并列。
The numerical effect is obvious: there are fewer salmon in degraded regions than in pris(10) tine ones; however, habitat loss also has the potential to reduce genetic diversity.
数量方面的效果是明显的:较少的salmon在环境退化地区。但是(不仅仅在数量方面如此),生存环境的减少有可能导致genetic diversity的减少。
Large-scale disturbances in one locale also have the potential to alter the genetic structure of populations in neighboring areas, even if those areas have pristine habitats.
在某一地区大规模的扰动,(不仅仅影响该地区的salmon物种的基因结构,)也会改变邻近地区的salmon物种的基因结构。
谢谢gg 阅读能力真强的说

Q11:
According to the passage, human activity has had which of the following effects on salmon populations?
the answer is B. 偶不确定是否是在第一段中的7-9行定位的?哪位NN指点一下啊,谢谢?
就是L7-9
可是7~9只是说了There are fewer salmon in degraded regions than in pristine ones.没有说明decline这个现象呀?
是不是有些不准确?
还是不明白,原文说The numerical effect is obvious: there are fewer salmon in degraded regions than in pristine ones;
in degraded regions than in pristine ones;
只是说在退化的地方鱼比PRISTINE少,又没说总体少。
还有第9题目,答案选B,如下原文哪里提到 a common misunderstanding 了 Bcorrect a common misunderstanding about the behavior of salmon in response to environmental degradation caused by human activity
Bcorrect a common misunderstanding about the behavior of salmon in response to environmental degradation caused by human activity
我想第9题选B的可能基于第一段的最后几句话吧(如下)
Indeed, most
analysts believe that some kind
of environmental degradation
underlies the demise of many
extinct salmon populations.
(20) Although some rivers have
been recolonized, the unique
genes of the original populations
have been lost.
但最后一段(如下)说明了人的影响和环境的影响对鱼都是一样的,所以第9题我选了C
Although no one has quantified
changes in the rate of straying
as a result of the disturbances
caused by humans, there is no
(70) reason to suspect that the effect
would be qualitatively different
than what was seen in the
aftermath of the
奇怪,我这里的答案,第9题是E,怎么变成了B,到底是什么?
还有对于e选项
E. describe how environmental degradation can cause changes in salmon populations that extend beyond a numerical reduction
文章前两段都还能解释,那么最后一段哪?我觉得最后一段相当于一个总结段,提出其实人类对鱼的影响和环境的影响是差不多的,那么不就相当于转回来了吗?
谁能帮帮忙??谢谢

同意,我也觉得11题的定位有点问题,在文章最后一段,说了,人对鱼的影响和环境对鱼的影响是一样的,那么这里说了,会影响鱼类对于环境的适应能力和E选项一样的意思

Q11:
According to the passage, human activity has had which of the following effects on salmon populations?
疑惑,不知道怎么解释?
Although no one has quantified
changes in the rate of straying
as a result of the disturbances
caused by humans, there is no
(70) reason to suspect that the effect
would be qualitatively different
than what was seen in the
aftermath of the
Helens eruption.
我觉得11题的B应该是从这里定位找答案,它指出了qualitatively different~~~~另外E应该是错误选项,文中没讨论vulnerability的概念
第9题答案应该是E
12.The author mentions the “aftermath of the Mount Saint Helens eruption” (lines 73-74) most likely in order to
A:indicate the extent to which the disturbance of salmon habitat by human activity in one stream might affect the genetic structure of salmon populations elsewhere
B:provide a standard of comparison against which the impact of human activity on the gene flow among salmon populations should be measured
哪个??

这里是证明disturbances are caused by humans? 其他地方好像没说他们之间的联系
C??

看原文出现aftermath...MSH。 原文说:Although....,there is no reason to suspect that the effect would be qualitatively different than...MSH.意思是说:没有理由怀疑MSH的后果可以量化-----也就是MSH可以量化,反对以前说不能量化。因此选择B

看整篇文章,对比只在最后一段,不是重点。
大部分篇幅都是描述environmental degradation的!
C明显是错的,用compare这个词就可以排除,整篇文章一脉相承,都在讲human activity的影响。
但是我对于E还有问题,就是environmental degradation好像不包括后面的disturbance......第二段第一句开头就讲了.....even if...in a pristine region.....
当然别的也没得选,但我对E的说法感到很疑惑
今天做到这道题了,虽然距上一个回复日期已过一年……:P
我觉得Q12选C。虽然我一开始我没读清C在说什么就先把它排除了……@_@但是仔细读完发现比B要更准确
文章的思路:Para1:提出观点(人类不仅减少了鱼的数量还使得部分种类灭绝)
Para2:说明原因,介绍机理
Para3: 重申影响,表明人类的危害
从Q9看出来主题是: describe how environmental degradation can cause changes in salmon populations that extend beyond a numerical reduction
那么environmental degradation 是针对谁在说呢?就是人类啊,并不是火山爆发这种自然现象。
既然文章针对人, 为什么又能扯到自然现象(火山爆发)呢?
火山爆发最先是在Para2 提到的。 Para2 提它是为了支持结论Straying rates remain relatively low when environmental conditions are stable, but can increase dramatically when streams suffer severe disturbance. 但是这点并没有和人类联系上。只是证明了机理的正确性,可是并没有表明人类的危害程度。
Para3又提到火山爆发,问题正是对Para3出现提问。这里是将火山爆发的后果和人类危害作了比较,表示两者不相上下。为什么要这么比呢?因为
Although no one has quantified changes in the rate of straying as a result of the disturbances caused by humans因为人类的危害没有办法量化。
再读C选项:provide a standard of comparison against which the impact of human activity on the gene flow among salmon populations should be measured这个选项把自然现象和人类活动通过比较连接起来了。因为自然现象是没有办法直接说明人类活动的后果的, 它只能作为一个参考指标啊~~~
而B选项indicate the extent to which the disturbance of salmon habitat by human activity....火山爆发怎么能说明人类影响有多大?所以我觉得还是没有指明这句话的关键作用。
看到前人的帖子有提过the genetic structure和the gene flow 是否有差别?我个人觉得没有。原因如下:
第三段首句说的是火山爆发和人类活动在in the rate of straying 方面的影响程度,最后一句说的是results in substantial gene flow,我觉得rate of straying 直接相关于gene flow。
第二段首句:to alter the genetic structure of populations in neighboring areas。然后说rate of straying 。就是说rate of straying 直接相关于the genetic structure 。
从意思上说,这两者也是同义变换吧…… 至少每看到讨论的时候我没感觉出来两者的差异……
