问答题Question: Using points and examples from the talk, explain the two types of adaptation of animals living in arctic area during the winter.
问答题For this task, you will write a response to a question about a
reading passage and a lecture. You may take notes, and you may use your notes to
help you write your response. Your response will be scored on the quality of
your writing and on how well you connect the points in the lecture with points
in the reading. Typically, an effective response will have 150 to 225
words. The solution to most problems that societies confront is
a higher level of political sophistication that results from more education.
When people have the facts about the issues, they will be clearer thinkers and
better citizens. Most people depend on broadcast news and print
media for information about current issues. However, in addition to good
information, the media contain rumors, misinformation, and politically motivated
variations on the truth. The most effective remedy for misinformation is fact
checking. If the information people have is incorrect, the corrected facts will
enlighten them. Knowing the truth will help people reject misinformation because
they will have a better understanding of the issues. When
people have all of the available information, they are able to develop
intelligent, informed opinions about issues. People base their opinions on
facts, and the more information they have, the more informed their opinions will
be. Listening to opposing opinions is an important component of being informed.
Therefore, political debate will benefit society by ensuring that citizens
understand all sides of an issue. Accurate information is
necessary for solving the problems societies face. When people feel threatened,
they will search for the truth. Their natural instinct is to seek information
that will help them to make decisions about potential solutions to problems.
They will listen to the opinions of experts and look to their elected officials
for leadership. When the people are well informed, everyone will benefit: the
people, the leaders, and the society as a whole. Now listen to
the recording. When you hear the question, begin your response. You may look at
the reading passage during the writing time. Summarize the
points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they contradict specific
points made in the reading passage.

问答题先讲到动物自我保护的方法,常见的是蜥蜴的断尾和另一种s开头动物的扔脚,有一个考点是两者的区别。然后老师说今天的重点只是蜥蜴的tail loss。然后讲蜥蜴脱落尾巴是voluntary的,或者是因为fear, 学生惊讶为什么是voluntary, 老师解释说可能蜥蜴还没有致命的危险,就开始为了自保voluntary地断掉尾巴,可能还没有和predator有直接的接触(动机可以理解)。但是生物家搞不懂的最复杂的问题是为什么蜥蜴开始放弃尾巴这种自救行为呢?(有题,教授说目前对蜥蜴短尾还不明确的是什么)。后面分析了一下蜥蜴的尾部构造,说在尾巴处有一个point, 十分容易脱落,只要蜥蜴一有反应,就可以迅速脱落,感觉蜥蜴是可以control的,让学生们罗列这种方式的advantages, 有说这样可以保命。然后说长尾巴的过程需要4-12周,根据种类不同而定,而且,长出来的尾巴先是什么C结构,后面再慢慢长骨头。虽然优点显而易见,老师让学生们猜想风险。有说尾巴占有体积和重量,断了会让身体失去平衡。还有说这样的话,肯定跑起来有问题。还有说尾巴那么大一块肉掉了,少了很多能量。老师说,蜥蜴早就已经想到了,尾巴断的那截断尾没有多少energy储存着,他们把fat都长在尾巴根部base, 主要能量都保存下来了,为后面生存而用(有题,问蜥蜴断尾巴的时候,是怎么处理的,就说mineralize the energy loss)。而且断了尾巴的蜥蜴不仅平衡有问题,速度有问题,身体虚弱,忙着长尾巴,要损耗很多能量,但是又不敢轻易出去觅食,提到什么social status, 也许是尾巴断了地位会降低吧,还说母蜥蜴好像会断脚,出去很容易被predator抓,所以它们最大的风险是可能会被吃掉,而且,最致命的是,尾巴已经掉了,没有保命符了(有题,教授认为断尾巴的蜥蜴最大的风险是什么)。
