153 变色龙 P1 加勒比海的同祖先变色龙,住三种不同的地方:草里,树干里,twig M单词不认识,根据后文猜测住三种不同栖息地的变色龙体态也有所不一致 作者摆出:最令人震惊的不是变色龙的以上特征,住不同栖息地和体态不同;而是四大不同岛屿的变色龙都住三种不同的栖息地,且不同岛屿相同栖息地的变色龙体态也更一致
P2 不同岛上的相同物种有多种解释 - 一个岛是祖先,游到其他岛
- 这些岛之前都连在一起,后来分开的
以上两种都是认为进化的特殊化只发生一次 而alternative explaination是这些物种在不同的岛屿上独自进化
你在干嘛?READING TRANSLATION? 别翻译辣 T7 translator
P3 指出不同解释间的差异:至特殊化一次or在不同的岛屿上独自进化? 为下一段做铺垫 P4 科学家通过DNA的手段检测是一次进化延伸到各个岛屿还是各个岛屿独立进化 结果显示habitat specialists on one island are not closely related to the same habitat specialists elsewhere 承接第三段 得出结论specialists evolved independently on cach island.
难点:connection of each paragraph 如果只当translator,是看不到connection看不到作者的逻辑的
P1 - 展示奇艺现象 P2 - 现象的两种不同流派解释 P3 - 两种不同流派的解释哪种是对的?两种解释对应的不同现象 1/ specialist evolved just once -> similar specialists on different islands would be closely related 2/ evolved independently on each island -> a specialist on one island would be more closely related to other types of anoles on the same island regardless of their ecological niches, than it would be to a similar specialist on a different island brief version 1/ specialist evolved just once -> 住twig的更像不同岛屿之间同样住twig的;因为进化在最早就发生了,现在不同岛屿要么是游过去要么是岛屿的分裂,ecological niches influence more than current geographic difference 2/ evolved independently on each island -> 同一个岛屿的变色龙更像,不管你住哪 P4 - 科学家通过DNA鉴别发现habitat specialists on one island are not closely related to the same habitat specialists elsewhere(其他岛屿),说明变色龙不属于1/种而是2/种
要在短时间内理清楚这些逻辑并不简单,But I have a growth mindset, I strongly believe that I can develop the ability that GMAC and Top ranked Business schools require by practice, vehement desire of success and strong belief of being able to perform well are what set people who will eventually get what they want from those people who will not because stop short of trying 加油

Wise作字尾,還有「朝.....方向」以及「和.....相似」兩個意思,例如:
(1) Turn the lid anticlockwise to open it.
(2) He walked soldier-wise.這兩句還算正式。

口语以wise结尾表in terms of:
Do you think our products are competitive enough for an international market?
Pricewise yes, but in terms of service over a long period of time, I would say no.
The plan is not quite feasible costwise. |
