题目解析
14、关键词a type of tomato;resist a dangerous infection,出题句原文SectionC最后一段第二句:In this way they managed to create a strain resistant to a common disease called bacterial spot race,which can devastate yields.参考译文:通过这种方式,他们成功地创造出了一种对一种叫做细菌斑点种族的常见病具有抗性的品种,这种病可以破坏产量。题干解析:a reference to a type of tomato that can resist a dangerous infection。译文:指一种能够抵抗危险感染的番茄。题干中的resist a dangerous infection对应原文中的resistant to a common disease called bacterial spot race。答案为C。
15、关键词Problems;a certain type,出题句原文Section B第二段:But every time a single plant with a mutation is taken from a largei population for breeding, much genetic diversity is lost.And sometimes the desirable mutations come with less desirable traits For instance,the tomato strains grown for supermarkets have lost much of their flavour.参考译文:但是,每当从更大的种群中抽取一株有突变的植物进行育种时,许多遗传多样性就会丧失。有时,理想的突变会带来不太理想的特性。例如,为超市种植的西红柿品系已经失去了大部分风味。题干解析:an explanation of how problems can arise from focusing only on a certain type of tomato plant.译文:解释仅关注某种类型的番茄植物会如何产生问题。题干中的problems对应原文中的much genetic diversity is lost.And sometimes the desirable mutations come with less desirable traits,属于抽象到具体的替换;focusing only on a certain type of tomato plant对应a single plant with a mutation is taken from a larger population for breeding,属于改写型替换。答案为B。
16、关键词not cultivated at present : food sources,出题句原文Section E第二段:The three teams already have their eye on other plants that could be catapulted into the mainstream’,including foxtail, oat-grass and cowpea.参考译文:这三个团队已经开始关注其 他可能“进入主流”的植物,包括狐尾草、燕麦 草和豇豆。题干解析:a number of examples of plants that are not cultivated at present but could be useful as food sources 译文:一些目前尚未种植但可用作食物来源的植物示例。题干中的a number of examples of plants对应原文中的foxtail,oat-grass and cowpea;could be useful as food sources对应could be catapulted into the mainstream’。答案为E。
17、关键词Early domestication; more recent,出题句原文Section A首段首句:It took at least 3,000 years for humans to learn how to domesticate the wildtomato and cultivate it for food.Now two separate teams in Brazil and China have done it all over again in less than threeyears.参考译文:人类至少花了3000年时间才学会如何培育野生西红柿并将其种植为食物。现在巴西和中国的两个独立团队在不到三年的时间里再次完成了这项工作。题干解析:a comparison between the early domestication of the tomato and more recent research。译文:番茄早期驯化与近期研究的比较题干中的early对应原文中的It took at least 3,000 years ;more recent research对应原文中的Now。答案为A。
18、关键词Flavour genetically edited,出题句原文Section C第三段: They are quite tasty, says Kudla.'A little bit strong.And very aromatic.’参考译文:它们相当美味,'Kudla说有一点烈,非常香。题干解析:a personal reaction to the flavour of a tomato that has been genetically edited。译文:对经过基因编辑的番茄味道的个人反应题干中的personal reaction对应原文中的says Kudla;flavour对应tasty,strong和aromatic。答案为C。
