Contradicted to what indicated in the reading passage, the speaker argues against the three measures to get rid of the cane toad which is an exotic species (specie 单数) introduced to Australian continent to reduce the population of native animals. The speaker argues that the first measure, building a national fence, would not avoid eggs laid by young toads drifting from one side of the fence to another in streams. However, the reading passage advocates that a national fence would effectively prevent the expansion of population of toads. Regarding to the second measure, the speaker worries that untrained volunteer (-s 这里应该是复数吧)would hurt endangered native frogs by chance because it is difficult to distinguish between cane toads and native frogs. On the contradiction (可能是平时看文章少,没见过 只用过on the contrary), the reading passage gives the opposite viewpoint. If citizens were called on to become volunteers of devastation campaign, the spread of toads can easily be controlled. (这里是虚拟语气吗,很好啊,不过是不是用could 会好一点)
Finally, the speaker thinks that using an infectious virus put forward by reading passage is not a good way to solve the problem. Owing to the transportation of Australian reptiles and amphibians between Australian and South America is frequently (去掉-ly,应该是adj.), the virus will threaten native cane toads lived in South America. The rapid decrease of native cane toads would break the balance of the ecosystem of South America. 楼主句式的变换很多呢,听力里该有的都有了。只有一个小建议可以把听力里的细节分开说,不用都融在一句里。学习了! -- by 会员 未知未来2 (2012/11/24 14:53:36)
多谢指教~ 首先,细节分开说能比较容易阐述且写得字数更多。我写完了一看只有213个字但又不知还能加些啥了,分开写可以改变。 其二,的确应为on the contrary而不是 on the contradiction, contradiction 不能这么用。我记混了。 其三,关于虚拟语气你提得很对,要用could.应改为If citizens were (were to) call on to become volunteers ofdevastation campaign, the spread of toads can(could) easily becontrolled. 最后,我本想着自己知道就算了,但是抱着共同学习的目的,我还是想弱弱地指出来:species单复同型。提醒未知未来同学注意一下下。 牛津字典里举了一个例子:a rare species of beetle 甲壳虫是一种稀有动物。 |
