【题型】：填空

【难易度】：正常

【场景】：历史考古场景

点评

本场考试Part 4题目是历史考古的场景，答案词总体都是很常规的，比如volcano，flower，grass，storm都是经常出现的。Bacteria，fossils，centuries虽然较难，但也是大部分同学都很熟悉的单词，总体难度还是比较正常的题目。

How Surtsey was formed

In 1963 the activity from an underwater 31 volcano started to form an island.Fishermen saw 32 smoke coming up out of the sea

What scientists found in the early days

The first plant life was a type 33 flower.The first sign of the life found by scientist was a fly.

Scientists were surprised by the widespread growth of 34 grass.

Later findings

In the 1960s, birds bought seed to the islandIn the 1970s, 35 bacteria were probably carried to the island.The first green vegetation- marchantia formed a thick 36 carpet in Surtsey

Contrast:

Surtsey- an island only 39 years old. The 37 fossils were obtained as early as5 years after the eruption! However,38 radio observation suggest that volcano is very energetic.

Climate and future:

The enormous waves of winter 39 stormsAn assessment assumed that the island will survive for many 40 centuries.

雅思阅读

Reading

马上过年了，雅思阅读也要来凑热闹，各种新鲜话题频频上阵：P1人类如何成功把自然带偏：它讲述了一个文明如何通过一个无心之举（养牛吃草），引发了一场轰轰烈烈的“吃土”运动，并最终在科学证据面前，完成了一次尴尬的自我反思；P2想象自己戴着护目镜走进“记忆实验室”：那些小标题题不过是实验步骤清单，填空题是仪器上的读数；P3当“预言家”拥有科学方法论：隆重介绍了一群拒绝水晶球、改用PPT和数据分析来“科学算命”的未来学家。

（烤鸭们最终会心一笑：雅思阅读还挺有意思，没事当闲书来翻翻——这恰恰说明你已读懂了它的逻辑，而绝不只是“没招了”。）

Pasasage 1 美国西部的尘土问题 Dust and the American West

【难度】：⭐⭐⭐

【题型】：判断8+填空5

【话题】：生态环境

参考原文（部分）： Dust and the American West

A Images of deserts in the United States show dusty, barren landscapes, but the land may not always have been this way.Ever since settlers moved west across the US there has been dust-clouds of it everywhere. It was part of the landscape,or so it seemed to them. But there were no records of the landscape of the West until the settlers arrived. Now evidence is starting to emerge which suggests that before the settlers, there was very little dust.

B The evidence comes from the San Juan mountains of southwest Colorado, downwind of Arizona and New Mexico. There Jason Neff, a geochemist from the University of Colorado,has been analyzing sediments, the sand, stones and mud, laid down over the past 5000years. Atmospheric dust was minimal throughout those five millennia until the mid-19thcentury, he says, but then, 'from about 1860 to 1900, dust deposition rates shot up.

C This is surprising because usually dry means dusty, and the American West has almost always been dry-often drier than today. There was a near-permanent drought between 900and 1300 which was so intense that it destroyed a series of native American civilizations,including the Anasazi, whose cliff homes are now US national treasures. Yet the evidence from the San Juan lakes is that it was not dusty. Even as their civilization was collapsing.the Anasazi seem to have protected their soils from erosion.

D This was not the case with the European settlers once they brought their cows. The landscape the cattle were introduced to was remarkably ill-equipped to cope with grazing animals, says Neff. 'Unlike most other parts of the US, there were few grazers in the American Southwest until the Europeans came. No bison and few antelope or deer.

E In the Great Plains to the east and north, bison roamed in vast herds. Their regular grazing had created tough grass, while the herds manured the soil. In the Southwest, the land had few defenses against a sudden invasion of millions of livestock, whose teeth stripped the grass and whose hooves punctured the hard crust of desert soils that protected them from the wind.

这篇文章以“尘埃”为线索，讲述了美国西部环境变迁的典型故事。它遵循清晰的脉络：首先描绘尘埃在人类干预前“低调存在”的自然平衡期；接着，随着欧洲拓荒者引入大规模牛群，这些“四蹄挖掘机”彻底破坏了地表，导致尘埃问题猛然爆发；然后，科学家通过湖泊沉积物这一“自然档案”精准锁定变化节点，发现人类活动而非气候才是主因；最终引发对生态系统敏感性与人类干预后果的反思。全文宛如一份“生态侦探报告”，用科学证据冷静揭示了一个文明无意间改写地貌的过程。此类文章常与环境史、生态学及可持续发展话题紧密相连，其分析逻辑与剑桥雅思真题中多篇文本一脉相承（例如C10-T4-P1 The Impact of Wilderness Tourism，以及 C8-T4-P2 Biological Control of Pests），赶快复习起来吧！

Passage 3 未来学 The Long View

【话题】：科普

35. economic competition

Climate change, moon bases, cybercrime: we all know the predictions, but how are they made? One expert explains the science of futurology

The business of predicting the future has a long history. Several millennia ago in ancient Greece,people would consult Apollo, the god of prophecy, to learn if fortune favoured their chosen course of action. The tradition has changed considerably since then. Today, futurology is a science that drives a thriving business-its three main consumers being the military, big business and national governments. Modern futurists do not predict that a certain event will occur at a particular time. Instead they look at what is happening now to see what this may lead to further down the line. Alternatively, they start with a desired result and work out how people and organisations can be manoeuvred into realising that ambition.

The oil company Shell has been one of the major producers of future studies. It recently published a comprehensive study looking at how people may live in 2020 and 2050, given the type of energy which is purchased. Philip Watts from Shell says, 'This is not an exercise in prophecy. Rather it is designed to challenge our thinking so that we can make better choices in today' s business world.

The short-term attitudes and bureaucracy of many governments can be frustrating to futurists,but this mutual wariness is slowly changing. The Scottish Parliament recently hosted a conference of 150 futurists from across the globe. The parliament is setting up a forum to look at where Scotland is heading in the next 20 years. Among the issues are demographics and economic competition within Europe and with Asia. It' s a first for the United Kingdom, although not for Europe-this strategy has already been put into practice in Finland.

Eamonn Kelly, head of the San Francisco-based Global Business Network futurist group, was one of those who attended the conference. According to Kelly, 'There are many different tools a futurist can employ but essentially there are three main ingredients. First, there is the "science",which can encompass everything from environmental studies to psychology. Then, there is the" craft", which may include interviews and the creation of maps of cause and effect. Finally,there is the "art", the intuitive ability to meld all this into a coherent whole.

Dr James Canton is founder of the San Francisco-based Institute for Global Futures and has been an adviser to leading US companies. Like many futurists he started in the private sector but is also comfortable in academia and has an urge to change things for the better. 'A futurist is an alchemist who mixes the qualitative,' he says. 'He needs intuition and has to work with people from a range of academic backgrounds gathering primary evidence about what motivates people.Futurists are constantly discussing ideas with their peers, but they do not simply surf the net picking up on the latest fad.'

New Zealand futurist Robin Gunston says, 'I don' t believe you can train yourself to become a futurist. A certain amount of this is to do with how your brain is hard-wired and we know this is difficult to change. Futurology requires extensive life experience and a broad education to test theories against. Much of modern teenage culture is about me, what I want and what the world owes me -that does not make it easy to see different kinds of futures and pose the hard questions about how we will get there.'

Those best able to respond to futurists are the most agile. 'Large corporations beholden to shareholders and governments burdened by bureaucracy are often simply too slow. Asian companies tend to be better prepared because they take a longer perspective. Sony, for example,s very forward looking,' Canton says. 'There will be sunset and sunrise nations and corporations,in terms of prosperity in the 21st century. The winners will be those corporations and governments which conduct future studies and take steps to become future-proofed.'

According to Alan Beckley, a former West Mercia chief inspector and past president of the Police Futurists International (PFI), getting public bodies in the UK future-proofed could be a long process. 'People are concerned about the methodology and the reliability of future studies,' he says. 'They are more likely to follow their political masters than go to them and say, " We have done this scenario, and this is what we should do" .' However, as the Scottish Parliament has shown, there are a few examples of government exercises. Also, in 2003 Britain' s Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) published for the first time its strategic thinking for the next decade.This document was drawn up with the help of in-house and outside futurists. FCO minister Bill Rammell says, 'We do occasionally look further ahead than the next ten years on issues such as demographics. But the period chosen for the strategy was deliberately a decade. Even assumptions about technology get very shaky beyond that.'

American futurist Steve Brant stresses the importance of remembering that the road ahead has yet to be chosen. 'People can create the future they want using various points of leverage, he says. 'We have much more influence over what the future will be like than many of us realise.'Futurists used to be like firefighters-they tried to work out what to do if things went wrong.Now, the aim of this profession is to imagine the best possible future for society and start creating it today.

看到标题和一群futurists：啥啥啥，这都是个啥；但看到文章内容又活过来了：雅思，你的文章读起来确实有点意思。这篇文章以严谨而生动的方式，拆解了“未来学”这门看似神秘学科的里里外外：用案例、人物（各位未来学家）、方法论和反思（挑战、局限性）来立体化地呈现一个主题。面对这种吓人的话题，考场上我们的最佳策略是：速读抓框架：快速弄清每段核心（是在下定义、举例子、讲方法还是做评价）；边读边标记人名和其核心观点，为人名观点题做准备。雅思尤其青睐探讨“科技与社会互动”及“学科发展与展望”的文章，同类文章温习提示：C20-T3-P3 robots and us, C11-T1-P3 reducing the effects of climate change，C14-T2-P3 why companies should welcome disorder等。
