14、ared with conversation, usually public speaking is more of a ‘oneway’ talking.”可知，在公開場合發(fā)表演說，大家只需要聽，不需要發(fā)表任何意見。沒有信息的交換。 2．provide/equip　根據(jù)第二段第二句“An informative speech has a purpose to inform, or give knowledge to its audience ...”可知，信息科普類講座是為了給聽眾提供信息和知識(shí)。provide sb.with sth.“向某人提供某物”。 3．similarity/si

15、milarities　根據(jù)第二段第四、五句“Besides ...The speaker needs to look for common ground with the audience and try to relate to what they might agree on.”可知，說服類演講，演說者要找到和觀眾的共同立場，或者共同的利益點(diǎn)，才可以做出來。 4．informal/casual　根據(jù)第二段倒數(shù)第二、三句“Third ...It tends to be less formal and more personal ...”可知，第三種類型的演講正式程度會(huì)少很多，更私人化，也就

16、是更隨意些。 5．preparations　第三段講一個(gè)完美的演講需要練習(xí)，也需要了解受眾和話題本身等，也就是做準(zhǔn)備。Make preparation for ...“為……做準(zhǔn)備”。 6．laid　根據(jù)“battlefield”定位到第三段第四句“Knowing the ‘battlefield’ in advance will give the speakers a huge advantage.”可知，提前了解場地怎樣布置可以幫助演說者做更多準(zhǔn)備。lay out“陳列，布置”。 7．length/duration/time　本題是第三段最后一句中“... and help dete

The scientific community has become increasingly panicked over the past year.The latest assessment from the U．N.Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change painted a far more terrible picture than its previous analyses, and the longawaited National Climate Assessme

Because they have be

But these innovations did not happen by themselves, or simply because of the United States rich resources.They depended on consistent sup

33、he planet. 語篇解讀：雖然全球氣候變暖的問題正在變得越來越嚴(yán)重，但是現(xiàn)在美國人卻忽視這個(gè)問題。作者比較了美國人以前對待氣候變暖的態(tài)度和現(xiàn)在的態(tài)度，并分析了產(chǎn)生這些變化的原因，最后呼吁美國人要行動(dòng)起來保護(hù)地球。 1．a(chǎn)ware/conscious　第一段第一句，氣候問題太過嚴(yán)重難以忽視，也就是引起了人們的注意。be/become aware/conscious of ...“意識(shí)到……”。 2．blame　根據(jù)第一段第二句“... that human cause it ... the consequences will be disastrous.”可知，氣候問題是人類導(dǎo)致

34、的，人類應(yīng)該對這個(gè)問題負(fù)責(zé)。be to blame for“應(yīng)對……負(fù)責(zé)”。 3．a(chǎn)nswer　同上一題。answer for意思和be to blame for差不多。 4．under　根據(jù)第二段第二句中“...climate change represents a severe threat to human health as well as our economic security.”可知，氣候問題已經(jīng)成為人類健康和經(jīng)濟(jì)安全的威脅。under a severe threat“受到嚴(yán)重威脅”，固定搭配。 5．favo(u)r　根據(jù)第三段第一句“...and support Pre

35、sident Trumps decision to withdraw from the Paris treaty.”可知，一些美國人沒有認(rèn)識(shí)到氣候問題的嚴(yán)峻性，仍然支持特朗普總統(tǒng)撤離巴黎條約的決定。in favo(u)r of是support的同義轉(zhuǎn)換。 6．Reasons　根據(jù)表格后面對應(yīng)的內(nèi)容可以看出此處是羅列了美國人對待這個(gè)問題消極的態(tài)度的原因。reasons for ...“……的原因”，習(xí)慣用法。 7．interest　根據(jù)第三段第二句“Campaign contributions from fossil fuel companies have convinced elected

36、 officials to look the other way.”可知，石油公司對已競選活動(dòng)的捐款使得被選拔的官員對環(huán)境問題的看法和以往不一樣了。所以當(dāng)選官員對這一威脅充耳不聞，因?yàn)樗麄兣c化石燃料公司的利益關(guān)系。 8．sure/certain/optimistic　根據(jù)第四段第二句“...have an intuitive (直覺的) belief that their nation is more capable than others of adapting to a changed environment.”可知，美國人本能地相信他們比別的國家能夠更好地適應(yīng)變化的環(huán)境。 9．positive　從該題右欄內(nèi)容可知，以往的美國人對氣候問題的態(tài)度是積極的。 10．Conclusion　作者最后得出了結(jié)論，美國人不能再拖延拯救地球環(huán)境的行動(dòng)了。 7
