语料总结
话题突破17 环境保护（听力专练）
环境保护主题的听力试题主要考察以下能力：
捕捉具体细节：识别数字（如垃圾吨数）、时间、地点、具体措施（如用山羊除草）、物种名称等。
理解主旨要义：判断对话或独白的核心议题（如气候变化、废物管理、物种保护）。
推断观点态度：识别说话者对某一环保政策或行动的看法（如支持、怀疑、强调执行的重要性）。
理解行动与目的：将某个具体行动（如海滩清理）与其背后的目的（如减少污染、准备环境报告）联系起
来。
技巧1 预判关键词：在读题阶段，迅速圈定选项和题干中的环保关键词，在听的过程中集中捕捉这些词及
其同义替换。
技巧2 抓住开头结尾：对话或独白的开头常点明主题，结尾常总结目的或发出倡议，是理解主旨的关键。
技巧3 注意转折和强调：留意 but, however, actually, the point is 等词后面的内容，往往是说话者的真实
观点或重要信息。
技巧4 识别“问题-解决方案”结构：很多对话会围绕一个环境问题（如河流污染）展开，并讨论其解决
方案（如清理、采样、写报告）。理清这个逻辑链有助于答题。

W: Normally we collect 6 GB a day, but during special projects, it can reach 12 GB.
M: It sounds amazing. Do you have enough time to rest?

Sunday. Would that work?
M: Unfortunately, the report must be submitted by Monday morning. If we wait until Sunday, there won’t be
enough time to analyze the data and finalize the report.
W: I understand the urgency. Here’s an idea—what if I handle all the data analysis tonight after practice? That way,
you only need to focus on collecting water and soil samples on Saturday.
M: That’s a great solution! To speed things up, let’s ask Jenny to assist with the fieldwork on Saturday. She’s
experienced with sample collection.
W: Perfect! I’ll send you the analyzed data by midnight tonight. Good luck with the fieldwork, and let me know if

perfect shot tested my patience.
W: We heard you’re donating all earnings from your new book. Why?
M: Yes! Every penny goes to support wildlife rangers fighting illegal hunting in Kenya.
W: Your career shifted from fashion to wildlife photography. What inspired this change?
M: A journey through wild habitats awakened my love for nature. My journalism degree actually helped —
storytelling through a camera feels similar.
W: How was your experience teaching photography at the conservation camp?
M: It wasn’t as simple as I originally thought. The kids had trouble with the cameras at first. But seeing kids
develop both skills and environmental awareness was priceless.

【答案】11. B 12. C 13. A 14. C
【原文】M: Emma, did you see South Africa’s new maritime policy about protecting African penguins?
W: No. What did the government announce?
M: Its Fisheries and Environment Department made new rules on ship - to - ship transfers. They totally banned this
activity in marine protection areas (Q14), fish farming areas, and within 3 nautical miles of the coast.
W: Why? I know African penguins are endangered, but how does this help?
M: To prevent pollution. Those transfers might cause oil spills or waste, destroying penguins’ habitats. The policy
also helps monitor penguins and marine mammals (Q15).
W: Right. I know they’re endangered, and most live along southern Africa’s coasts.
M: Exactly. Their numbers are dropping fast (Q16). This policy is part of South Africa’s efforts to protect the
coastal ecosystem.
W: Do you think it will work?
M: Experts say it’s a positive step. But they also note that strict enforcement is necessary. Otherwise, the ban won’t
have much effect. (Q17)
W: I hope it works. It’s sad if these penguins disappear.

intelligence.

【答案】17. C
18. B 19. A 20. C
【原文】M: In the spring of 2021, 12 sailing teams from around the world competed in the first-ever Ocean Race
Europe. The race set off from Lorient, France, on May 29, 2021. Teams of 6 to 10 people spent 22 days sailing the
Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea to the finish line, in Genoa, Italy. That’s where the race ended, on June
19, 2021. Two classes of speedy sailboats raced in the event: the IMOCA and the VO65. Offshore Team Germany
won the IMOCA class race. And Portugal’s Mirpuri Foundation Racing Team won the VO65 class. The Ocean
Race Europe presented plenty of challenges. Teams were on their boats for three straight weeks. When you were on
board, all you do was race, eat, and sleep. There was no Internet connection and there were no movies. There
wasn’t even a fridge or a freezer inside the boat. The Ocean Race Europe has a larger purpose. During the race, the
boats collected scientific data from the salty waters. The data is shared with scientists. It provides insight about how
the ocean is affected by climate change. Scientists use the data to further understand and advocate the world’s
changing environment and seas.
Passage 2
听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。
18. What is the estimated amount of yearly solid waste by 2050?
A.2.1 billion tons.
B.3.8 billion tons.
C.4.9 billion tons.
19. What does the speaker say about the waste crisis?
A. It can be solved perfectly.
B. It is driven by economic growth.
C. It is linked to other environmental issues.
20. What does the speaker intend to do in the end?
A. Promote a new policy.
B. Encourage individual action.
C. Call for government attention.
【答案】18. B 19. C 20. B
【原文】Let's take a moment to talk about something that affects all of us —— waste and its impact on our planet.
In 2018, the EPA reported that the United States generated 292.4 million tons of solid waste—— about 4.9 pounds
per person per day.
Globally, the UN projected that solid waste generation would grow from about 2. I billion tons in 2023 to about 3.8
billion tons per year by 2050. In their 2024 Global Waste Management Outlook report, they stated that uncontrolled
waste knows no national borders. It is carried by waterways across and between countries. Pollution from waste is
associated with a range of negative health and environmental effects, many of which will last for generations.
In other words, the waste crisis affects all of us. It's also tied to the three major crises of biodiversity loss, climate
change, and pollution. While addressing such a massive problem may feel unmanageable, reducing your personal
footprint doesn't require perfection—— just progress.
Whether you're taking up more sustainable habits or purchasing more environmentally friendly products, every
small change counts.
Passage 3
听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。
17. Where is the cemetery located?

B. Beside an animal reserve.
C. Near the Anacostia River.
18. Why do cemetery officials use goats to kill the weeds?
A. To develop local economy.

19. Who is Mary Bowen?
A. A company owner.
B. A program director.
C. An environmental expert.
20. What is used to keep the goats from leaving the cemetery?
A. A wooden fence.B. An electronic fence.
C. A brick wall.
【答案】17. C 18. B 19. A 20. B
【原文】M: A burial place in Washington D.C. is using goats instead of poison to remove weeds. In
recent years, many weeds have grown in the cemetery. Officials do not want to use poisons to kill the
weeds. The cemetery is near the Anacostia River. Lauren Maloy is the program director in the cemetery.
“Because it is close to the river, we are always looking for ways to make sure that things are sustainable — we are
not using poisons that might hurt the environment.” She said. So cemetery officials have decided to use goats. The
animals are less costly than chemicals and do not hurt the environment. The animals are owned by Mary Bowen.
The cemetery pays her company $11,000 to have the goats remove unwanted plants from each spot of the cemetery.
Mary Bowen says that is about half the cost of using poisons. An electronic fence keeps the goats from leaving the
cemetery. She hopes that the goats will help more people understand that they can keep their property free of weeds
without hurting the environment.

climate change occurs, its impacts and how society responds to it through his lecture. Our second guest, Dr.Jo Anna
Reed Johnson, is one of the Directors for Climate and Sustainable Education at our college. She will follow up
Professor Shine’s talk about the role of education in understanding climate change. It’ll begin at 4:15 pm and end at

change. After that it’s discussion time. It’ll last 30 minutes. The two professors will answer questions collected
from students. If you’re interested, go to Room 101 in No.1 Teaching Building on Friday afternoon next week.

introduce some of our main activities and upcoming events. We organize monthly beach clean-ups to keep
the area litter-free.
We also manage a local nature reserve, maintaining paths so they’re safe and enjoyable for visitors. We’ve recently
completed putting up bird nesting boxes and are now working on encouraging insects to help different kinds of
living things live there. There’s also an ongoing special project to identify the various butterfly species found in the
area. One of our upcoming tasks is to repair a wall nearby that was damaged in a storm not long ago.
In addition, we host guided walks and skill-building sessions. Our next guided walk is scheduled for the following
Sunday, heading out to Willow Island. It’s a wonderful place to see deer and diverse habitats. Participants should
bring strong boots that keep out water and pack a picnic for this all-day adventure.
Additionally, later this month, we’re offering a beginner-friendly woodwork session in Oakley Wood. Participants
will craft wooden spoons and learn basic skills—£45 including lunch, or £65 if camping overnight. Hope you’ll
join us soon!
