Task 1

INTEGRAED

关于saber-toothed cat(剑齿猫)是否是群居动物。

阅读文章要点:saber-toothed cat是群居动物

1. Fossils of saber-toothed cats with broken bones indicate that they were fed by other saber-toothed cats when they were injured.

2. There are large numbers of saber-toothed cats in the trap. The saber-toothed cats hunted together. The sound of dears in the trap attracted them to fall in the trap together.

3. Saber-toothed cats lived with other predators such as lions and wolves. Saber-toothed cats have to live in group to compete with those predators.

听力逐一反驳:

1. The fossils of saber-toothed cats with broken bones indeed indicate that they could survive when they were injured. However it doesn’t necessarily mean that they have to be fed by other saber-toothed cats. Many predators can find dead animals to eat. So did the saber-toothed cats.

2. The large numbers of saber-toothed cats in the trap doesn’t mean that they hunt together. The saber-toothed cats hunted separately. One of the saber-toothed cats heard the sound of the trapped dear, went to the trap and fell. Then another saber-toothed cat also heard the sound of the trapped dear, came to the trap and fell again.

3. Saber-toothed cats were large predators. Take tigers for example, one tiger is strong enough to fight against the social predators such as lions and wolves. So the saber-toothed cats don’t have to live together to compete with lions and wolves.

本次写作考试点评:

本次新托福写作重复2012.09.21北美考题。本次考题不在预测范围中,但是题目的难度总体而言适中,尤其是独立写作,是有关工作和生活的,非常简单。相对较难的是综合任务,是有关考古的,词汇量和背景知识对考生的要求较高,听力阅读完全融合的难度较大。考生要特别关注2012年下半年的北美考题,以防出现类似的重复规律。
