01 Custody of the Japanese Macaque Regained
重獲日本獼猴的監(jiān)護權(quán) 詞解新聞意 Key words 問 “日本獼猴”英語怎么說? 答 Japanese macaque; macaca fuscata 充電小站 日本獼猴,也叫雪猴,是生活在日本北部的一種獼猴。它們是世界上生活地區(qū)最北的非人類靈長目動物。日本獼猴的毛色為灰褐色,臉部、四肢和下腹部為紅色,其體長為79~95厘米,尾長約10厘米,成年公猴的體重為10~14公斤,母猴約為5.5公斤。日本獼猴在白天活動,大多數(shù)時間都在森林中,范圍包括落葉林、闊葉林和常綠林。它們以種子、根莖、花蕾、水果、無脊椎動物、漿果、樹葉、鳥蛋、蘑菇和谷物為食。日本獼猴一般組成一個規(guī)模為20~100頭的群體,分成幾個家庭,一般而言,母猴與公猴的比例約為3 : 1。母猴的地位有明顯等級制,公猴在種群中則比較游離。 輕松聽新聞 Listening A woman in the Canadian province of Ontario has gone to court to regain custody of her monkey after the animal was found on its own at an IKEA furniture store. Lee Carter has more. Millions of people have viewed the video of Darwin, the young Japanese macaque running loose shortly after he apparently escaped from a locked vehicle in an IKEA car park. After being seized by city of Toronto animal control officials, he was moved to a primate sanctuary where he is reported to be settling in. It is illegal to have this kind of exotic pet in Toronto. But in court today the former owner Yasmin Nakhuda argued that the seizure was not legal because she claimed she was made to hand over ownership of the monkey under threats of criminal prosecution. 核心詞匯連連記 province n. 省 regain v. 重獲 custody n. 監(jiān)護 furniture n. 家具 view v. 看到 apparently adv. 明顯地 vehicle n. 車輛 report v. 報道 illegal adj. 違法的 exotic adj. 奇異的 former adj. 之前的 claim v. 聲稱 ownership n. 所有(權(quán)) threat n. 威脅 開心譯分鐘 Translation 加拿大安大略省一名婦女的猴子被發(fā)現(xiàn)獨自①出現(xiàn)在宜家商店之后,這名婦女已經(jīng)上法院②并再次獲得了對猴子的監(jiān)護權(quán)。李?卡特報道。 成百上千萬的③人都看到了這段視頻,很明顯,這只日本小獼猴達爾文從宜家停車場內(nèi)一輛鎖著的車里跑出來后④就開始肆意橫行⑤。在被多倫多市動物管理員捉住后,他被送到了據(jù)說是他現(xiàn)在所居、薜撵`長動物保護所⑦。在多倫多,收養(yǎng)這種珍奇動物是非法的。但今天在法庭上,猴子的原主人雅思敏?娜克達認為沒收猴子是非法的,因為她聲稱她是在刑事指控⑧的威脅下⑨被要求交出⑩這只猴子的所有權(quán)。 實用短語對對碰 ①on one’s own ②go to court ③millions of ④shortly after ⑤run loose ⑥settle in ⑦primate sanctuary ⑧criminal prosecution ⑨under threats of ⑩hand over 詞匯練習 Practice Part A Dictation A woman in the Canadian 1 of Ontario has gone to court to 2 3 of her monkey after the animal was found on its own at an IKEA 4 store. After being seized by city of Toronto animal control officials, he was moved to a primate sanctuary where he is 5 to be settling in. Part B Multiple choice 1. He escaped from a locked vehicle in an IKEA car park. A. apparent B. apparently C. appear D. appeal 2. It is illegal to have this kind of pet in Toronto. A. exit B. exotic C. expect D. excited 3. She claimed she was made to hand ownership of the monkey under threats of criminal prosecution. A. in B. on C. out D. over 聽力點撥與解析 Part A 1. province 2. regain 3. custody 4. furniture 5. reported Part B 1. 該題目是考查對詞形相近的單詞的掌握。A項apparent“明顯的”,形容詞,而B項是“明顯地”,副詞,C項appear“看起來好像”,動詞,D項appeal“呼吁,上訴”,動詞。然后我們可以看到題干中的已給信息是“他從宜家停車場內(nèi)一輛鎖著的車里逃跑出來”,空格在主語He和謂語escaped 之間,所以應(yīng)該填副詞,B項 apparently填入后符合邏輯,所以B為正確答案。 2. 該題目考查對題干信息的理解,在分析整句結(jié)構(gòu)的同時,我們重點把握空格后面的詞“pet” ( 寵物),答案應(yīng)該是一個可以修飾pet的形容詞,在多倫多不能擁有什么寵物呢?根據(jù)全文的內(nèi)容我們知道這則新聞是圍繞一只來自日本的小獼猴的,所以從意思我們可以判斷答案為B項,exotic“外國的,異國情調(diào)的”。A項exit“出口”,C項expect“期待”,D項excited“興奮的”。 3. 該題目考查對hand 有關(guān)詞組的掌握。根據(jù)題干“she was made to hand ownership of the monkey...” 意思應(yīng)該為“她被迫交出猴子的所有權(quán)”。而各個選項的意思分別為:A項hand in“遞交”,B 項 hand on“把……傳下去”,C項 hand out“分發(fā),散發(fā)”, D項hand over“移交,交出”,所以正確答案為D。
