题目解析
1-5题：notes填空
1.题干预判答案为形容词，用diet做定位，快速定位到文章第二段第二句，对应原文Intermsoffeeding,itwasexclusivelycarnivorous.参考译文：在摄食方面，它完全是肉食性的。Feeding对应题干的diet,exclusively对应题干的entirely，答案为carnivorous.
2.顺序原则，题干用hunting做定位，定位到文章的第二段第第三四句，预判答案填名词，注意题干中mainly,probably的限定，对应原文Thethylacinewasnotafastrunnerandprobablycaughtitspreybyexhaustingitduringalongpursuit.Duringlong-distancechases,thylacineswerelikelytohavereliedmoreonscentthananyothersense.参考译文：袋狼跑得不快，很可能是在漫长的追捕过程中耗尽了猎物的体力抓住猎物。在长途追逐中，袋狼可能更依赖于气味而不是其他感官。probably原词出现了，caughtitsprey对应定位词hunting,reliedmoreon对应题干的dependmainlyon，后面的名词scent为答案。
3.题干用young,firstmonthsoflife,mother定位，定位到原文第三段第三句，预判答案填名词，对应原文：Newbornscrawledintothepouchonthebellyoftheirmother,andattachedthemselvestooneofthefourteats,remainingthereforuptothreemonths.参考译文：新生儿爬进母亲腹部的育儿袋中，并依附在四个乳头中的一个上，并在那里停留长达三个月。Newborns对应题干的young,mother原词出现，remainingthereforuptothreemonths对应题干的monthsoflife,答案为pouch.
4.定位词Australia,3.100-year-old,定位到原文第四段第二句，预判答案填名词单数，对应原文Themostrecent,well-datedoccurrenceofathylacineonthemainlandisacarbon-datedfossilfromMurrayCaveinWesternAustralia,whichisaround3.100yearsold.参考译文：在澳大利亚西部的默里洞穴中，发现了一具碳年代久远的袋狼化石，距今约有3100年。定位词原文原词出现，Themostrecent,well-datedoccurrence对应题干的lastevidence，答案为fossil.
5.定位词food,decline,Tasmania,定位到原文第五段最后一句，预判答案为名词，且答案跟availablesourcesoffood为并列关系，对应原文TheseincludecompetitionwithwilddogsintroducedbyEuropeansettlers,lossofhabitatalongwiththedisappearanceofpreyspecies,andadistemper-likediseasewhichmayalsohaveaffectedthethylacine.参考译文：包括与欧洲定居者引入的野狗的竞争，栖息地的丧失以及猎物的消失，以及可能也影响了袋狼的类似犬瘟热的疾病。thedisappearanceofpreyspecies对应题干中的availablesourcesoffood,alongwith对应题干的and并列，前面为lossofhabitat,loss对应题干的reduction，答案为habitat.
