GRE必读阅读素材整理(5)

2014-10-28 13:08:55来源:网络

  新东方在线为大家精心整理了一些必读的GRE阅读素材的相关内容,分享给大家,供大家参考,希望对大家有所帮助!

  有人说短文章的尽管短,但是题目不见得简单,而且反而更加皈依,出题的思路推理成分更多,是这样吗?我们看看:

  Typically the queen honeybee is mother to all the bees in a hive; after mating with several male drones from other colonies, she lays fertilized eggs that develop into all-female worker bees and lays unfertilized eggs that become all-male drones. When a queen dies, workers often lay unfertilized eggs that hatch into drones. Yet workers rarely reproduce while a queen reigns.

  首句简单告诉我们两个对象,一个是female worker bees, 一个是male drones。然后第二句说蜂王死了,要接班,那么女的就要生孩子变成男的。然后末句说了蜂王出来后,下面人就几乎停止生育了,“一山不能藏二虎嘛!”很好,读懂了吗?短文章的语言凝练,不废话,不展开,要展开也是从一个点展开,不会方方面面,用一个段展开,下面我们就看到了!

  According to natural selection theory, a worker (10)would enhance her fitness—or ability to propagate her genes—by hatching her own eggs in addition to or in place of the queen’s. But a typical worker’s fitness would be diminished if other workers’ sons, who have less genetic material in common with the worker, supplanted the queen’s sons (the worker’s brothers). Researchers, testing the hypothesis that workers usually somehow block each other’s attempts to reproduce, put unfertilized eggs laid by workers and by the queen into a hive. Other workers quickly devoured the workers’ eggs while leaving the queen’s eggs alone.

  好,都是讲如何使自己的遗传性得以最大程度的保留,通过互相阻止繁殖来实现。注意到关键词就是一个“block”。

  以上就是新东方在线为大家总结的一些必读的GRE阅读素材的相关内容,最后预祝大家在GRE考试中取得优异的成绩!
