As a matter of fact, there's a plaque identifying it as the tallest black walnut in the state. And from here we can see the beautiful archway of trees at the Commons. They've American elms... the ones along the Commons were planted when the college was founded 120 years ago. They have the distinctive dark green leaves that look lopsided because the two sides of the leaf are unequal. I want you to notice the elm right outside Jackson Hall... Some of its leaves have withered and turned yellow, maybe due to Dutch elm disease. Only a few branches seem affected so far, but if this tree is sick, it'll have to be cut down.
Well, let's move on and I'll describe what we see as we go.
【听力精解】
自然科学这部分,如果是可以拿到生物书的英文版,建议通读一遍,把生词看一看记一记,对考托福很有用。比如说这篇文章就是生物书里面的生物名词,讲树木的分类,如果你之前看过或记过这些名词的话,你马上就能反应过来它讲的是什么知识点。容易混淆的地方:pine我总是感觉像pineapple, 但实际上它就是松树,呵呵
broadleaf trees 这是阔叶林,生物书上会分得很详细,建议看书distinctive dark green leaves 一看到distinctive 马上想到different ,笔记上可以马上做标记,表示它有可能要提到他们的不同之处了
【参考译文】
确定。在最后一堂课,我们谈到了树木的分类,我们与被子植物的基本描述。你还记得那些是真实的鲜花和水果内部发展的种子植物。校园属于这一类,但常见的阔叶树,我们有我们的松树不要。
现在,我希望你跟着我的意见,穿着舒适的鞋子,因为正如我所说,今天我们打算做一个小领域的研究。
要开始了,让我介绍几个我们在我们面前的阔叶树。我敢肯定,你都注意到了这棵大树勃兰特厅旁边。这是一个黑核桃,必须是80英尺高。事实上,有一个牌匾,确定它作为国家最高的黑核桃。从这里我们可以看到美丽的拱门在下议院的树木。他们已经美国榆树......沿着风景的种植时,学院始建于120年前。他们有鲜明的深色绿叶期待渐行渐远,因为双方的叶是不平等的。我希望你能注意到榆树外杰克逊霍尔...它的叶子有些枯萎,变成黄色,可能是由于荷兰榆树病。只有几支似乎影响至今,但如果这棵树生病了,它不得不被砍掉。
好吧,让我们继续前进,我将描述我们所看到的,因为我们去。
