参考答案

参考解析
解析:第一句说的是海啸造成了巨大的人员伤亡,第二句说的是动物能逃脱海啸的袭击。两句意思相反,所以要用however承接上文。


上文说的是海啸是一种自然灾害,所以“sixth sense”范围只能是disasters,不能是shelters,foods或water。


本句继续在对比海啸造成的人员伤亡和动物能逃脱海啸这一现象。答案应该是选项A (missed),其他三个选项的词义与上下文都不相配。


从上下文判断,本句的意思应该是:没有大象死亡,甚至连一只野兔或兔子也没有死亡。故even正确。


全文说的是动物的第六感觉,而feel(触觉),see,hear都属于前五个感觉,所以不是正确答案。


本句说的是海的巨浪将洪水带到离海岸远达2英里的地方。正确答案应该是waves。


从上下文判断,本句意思应该是:Yala 国家公园是斯里兰卡野生动物最大的保护区,而 birthplaces(出生地)、playground(操场)和storage(储存)都与上下文表达的意思接不上,因此不是答案。reserve的意思是“保护区”,不是“储备”或“保留”。因此C是答案。


根据上下文,狗叫和鸟类迁徒应发生在火山爆发或地震前。因此B项正确。


在动物园里工作并发表对动物行为的专业性见解的人一定是专家学者(specialist), 其他三个选项都不合适。


本段第-句是说明为什么evidence没有得到科学验证。原因是科学家无法在实验室或野外进行特定的实验,以验证动物预见灾难的第六感觉。理解了上下文的意思,就知道选specific是最合适的。其他三个选项的词义与上下文不符,additional ,especial和 exceptional分别是“额外的”、“特定的”和“例外的”意思。


concurred with(同意)支配的宾语应该是view, opinion, judgment这-类词。前面句子说的是某位科学家指出无法验证动物预见灾难的第六感觉的困难所在,其他专家也同意这一看法,所以选assessment是正确的。


本句说的是动物特别是鸟类有捕捉灾难来临前某种征兆的能力。route(路线),be-havior(行为)和principle(原则)与上述意思相差较大,只有phenomenon是答案。


根据常识判断,动物是要依赖味觉、听觉等逃避食肉动物的攻击。依赖用rely on《因此D项正确。


从本句的意思判断,应该是“某种神奇的能力”,所以要选some。


本句的意思是“将……看成”,而英语的用词是see... as,所以要选as。
