　　SECTION 2

　　Welcome to Green Vale Agriculturai Park. As you know, we have only been open a weekso you are amongst our first visitors. We have lois of fascinating indoor and outdoor exhibits on our 'huge complex, spreading hundreds off hectares. Our remit is to give136 educational pportunifes to the wider public as woll as to ofler research sites for a widevariety of ariculturists and other scientists.

　　Let's start by seeing what there is to do. As you can see here on our giant wall plan, we arenow situatod in the Reception block .... here. As you walk out ol the main door into the

　　park there is a path you can follow. If you fllow this route you will immediately come intothe Rare Breeds section, where we keep a wide vardety of animals which I shall be tellingyou a Ite more about later. Noxt to this.... moving east.. is the large grazing area forthe rare breeds. Then further east .... in the largest sectionof our Park is the Forest Area.South of the grazing area and in fact just next to the Reception block is our ExperimentalCrop Area. In the middle of the Park ... this circular area is our lake . . These two smallrectangular shapes here... are the Fish Farms where we rear fish for sale. To the east olthose is the marsh area which attradts a great many migrant birds. In the south-easterncomner, beyond the marsh, is our Market Garden aroa, growing vegetables and flowers.

　　All these areas can be visited by the general public for almostal the year ... ailthough....please take note of the large signs at the entrance to each area which tol .. which tell youwhen certain areas are being used for particular ontrolld experiments and are thereforetemporarily out of bounds to the public.

　　You can se0 for yourself what a huge area the park covers and a key question is always,how can we move around? Well you have a choice of means .... all environmentallyfriendy... cars are banned in the park, We have bicydles which you can hire behind theRecepion block .... here .... the healty ones of you can go on foot and fally there's ourelectric tram, powered fom solar ceils. You find more infomation about this at the frontentrance.

　　A good place to start on your tour is the Rare Breods section. We keep goats, sheep andhens and other kinds of poultry, We are also thinking of bringing in cows and horses but wodo not, as yet, have failitis for those bigger animals. The animals are fed in public twice aday and a short lecture given on their feeding habits and nutritional needs. These are verypopular with the public but of course we mustn't lose sight of the main purpose of havingthis section, not as such to proserve rare animals but to maintain the dversity of breeds tobroaden the gene pool for agricultural development. Green Vale changos with the seasonswith diffrert events happening at difte times of the year. May will be perhaps our mostspectacuiar month with the arival of the Canada geoso and when our fruit trees will be infull blossom, but there are interesting events on all yoar round .... for example John

　　Havers, our expert _fy fisherman. is currently giving displays on the lake. Each of the sections has its own seasonal calendar .... please consult the summary board at the mainentrance. And the fnal section, as we retum to the Reception blocks, is the orchard. Do take time to browse round our shop .... there is a wide selection of books on wildife,some of them witten by local authors, and the history of farming, including organic farming,something which the park will be diversifing into in the coming months.

　　第2节

　　欢迎来到绿谷农业公园。正如你所知道的，我们只开了一个星期，所以你是我们的批访客之一。我们有迷人的室内和室外展览在我们的‘巨大的复杂，蔓延数百公顷。我们的职权范围是给予136教育 pportunife 对更广泛的公众如沃尔勒研究网站为广泛的阿里库主义和其他科学家。

　　让我们从看看有什么要做的开始。正如你可以看到这里在我们的巨型墙计划，我们现在坐在接待区......这里。当你走出主门进入停车有一条你可以走的路。如果你飞走这条路线，你会立即进入稀有品种部分，在那里我们保持广泛的动物，我会告诉你一个它以后。诺斯特到这个...向东移动。是稀有品种的大放牧区。再向东...在我们公园的部分是林区。放牧区以南， 事实上就在接待区旁边是我们的实验区。在公园的中间...这个圆形区域是我们的湖。.这两个小的角形在这里...是鱼场，我们饲养鱼出售。东边是沼泽区，有候鸟。在东南部，沼泽之外，是我们的市场花园，种植蔬菜和花卉。

　　所有这些地区都可以被一般公众参观几乎一年...虽然...请注意，每个区域入口处都设有大标志。告诉你什么时候某些区域被用于特定的滚动实验， 因此暂时超出公众界限。

　　你可以为自己提供公园覆盖的一个多么巨大的区域，一个关键问题总是，我们如何四处走动?你有选择的手段...所有环境友好...汽车是被禁止的公园， 我们有双床， 你可以租在收皮恩街区后面...这里。。。。你们中那些医治的人可以步行去， 秋天有我们的电车， 供电的 fom 太阳能 ceils 。您可以在正面找到有关此信息的信息。

　　一个的地方开始你的旅游是稀有布劳德部分。我们饲养山羊、绵羊和绵羊和其他种类的家禽，我们也在考虑引进牛和马，但还没有，对于那些更大的动物有失败炎。这些动物每天在公共场合喂食两次，并作了关于它们喂养习惯和营养需要的简短讲座。这些在公众中是流行，但我们当然不能忽视有这部分的主要目的，不是这样为保护珍稀动物，而是保持品种的变性，以布罗化农业发展的基因库。绿色淡水河谷昌戈斯与季节与差异事件发生在一年中的时间。也许这将是我们最光谱的月份与加拿大地理的阿里瓦尔和当我们的果树将盛开，但有有趣的事件，所有yoar圆....例如约翰

　　Havers，我们的_fy渔夫。目前在湖上展示。每个节有自己的季节性日历...请咨询主菜的摘要板。而fnal部分，因为我们重新到接待区，是果园。

　　一些时间浏览我们的商店...有关于野人生活的书种类繁多，其中一些是当地作家的机智的，还有农业的历史，包括有机农业，这些书籍在未来几个月里将会被公园多样化地研究。

　　Quarantine Service, has come to talk to us about his current researchwork. Right, well, over to you, Grant.

　　GRANT:Good moming, everyone. I'm sure that you know that the quarantine service regulates all food brought into Australia. Well, obviously they wantto prolect Australia from diseases that might come in with imported goods,but they also want to prevent insect pests from being introduced into thecountry. and that's where | have a part to play. Anyway, my current research involves trying to find a particular type of bee, the Asian HoneyBee, and finding out whether there are any of them around in various states of Australia. We discovered a few of them in Queensland once anderadicated them. Now, we'e pretty keen to make sure that there aren'tany more gtting in, particularly to New South Wales and other states.

　　STUDENT 12

　Whar's wrong with Asian Honey Bees? Are they so dfferent from

　　Australan bees?

　　GRANT:　Well, in fact, they look almost the same, but they are infested with mites- microscopic creatures which live on them, and which can seriouslydamage our own home grown bees, or could even wipe them out.

　　PROFESSOR:Well, what would happen if Australian bees died out?

　　GRANT:Well, the honey from Australian bees is of excellent qulity, much betterthan the stuff the Asian bees produce. In fact, Australla exports nativeQueen bees to a large number of countries because of this. When theEuropean Honey Bee was first discovered out in the bush, we found theymade really unpleasant honey and they were also 1oo big to pllinatemany of our native flowers here in Austalla.

　　STUDENT 2:

　　That must have had a devastating ffet on the natural flora. Did you loseany species?

　　GRANT:No, we managed to get them under control belore that happened but ifAsian bees got in there could be other consequences. We could lose a lotof money because you might not be aware. but i's estimated that nativebees' pollinalion of flower and vegetable crops is worth 1.2 bllion dollars ayear. So in a way they're the farmers' friend. Oh, and another thing is, ifyou're stung by an Asian Honey Boe, it can produce an llergic reaction insome people; so they're much more dangerous than native bees.

　　PROFESSOR:How will you know if Asian bees have entered Australia?

　　GRANT:We're looking at the diet of the bird alled the Rainbow Bee Eater. TheBee Eater doesn't care what it eals, as long as they're insects. But theintesting thing about this bird is that we are able to analyse exactly whati eats and that's really helpful if we're loking for introduced insects.

　　PROFESSOR:How come?

　　GRANT:Because insects have their skeletons outside their bodies. so the Bee Eaters digest the meat from the inside. Then they bring up all theindigestible bits of skeleton and, of course, the wings in a pellet - a smallball of waste material which they cough up.

　　PROFESSOR:That sounds a bit unpleasant. So, how do you go about it?

　　GRANT:In the feld we track down the Bee Eaters and fnd their favourite feedingspots, you know, the places where the birds usually feed. I's here that wecan find the pllets. We cllect them up and take them back to the laboratory to examine the contents.

　　PROFESSOR:How do you do that?

　　GRANT:The ellets are really hard, espocally if they have been out in the sun fora few days so, first of al, we treat them by adding water to moisten themand make them softer. Then we pull them apart under the microscope.Everything's all scrunched up but we're looking for wings s0 we just pullthem all out and straghten them. Then we identify them to see if we canfind any Asian bee wings.

　　PROFESSOR:And how many have you found?

　　GRANT:So far our research shows that Asian bees have not entered Australia inany number - it's a good result and much more fellable than trying to findlive ones as evidence of introduced insocts.

　　PROFESSOR:Well, that's fascinating! Thank you, Grant, for those insights. I hope thatyou might inspire some of our sludents here to conduct some similarexperiments.

　　检疫局，来跟我们谈谈他目前的研究工作。好吧，好吧，给你，格兰特。

　　授予：　好妈妈，各位我相信你知道隔离服务管理所有进入澳大利亚的食物。显然，他们想使澳大利亚免受进口商品可能流入的疾病的影响，但他们也想防止害虫被引入澳大利亚。这就是有一部分可以扮演。无论如何，我目前的研究包括试图找到一种特定类型的蜜蜂， 亚洲蜜蜂， 并找出是否有他们周围在各种澳大利亚各州。我们曾经在昆士兰州发现了一些，并把它们拉下。现在， 我们渴望确保有的 gtting， 特别是新南威尔士和其他。

　　学生 12

　　沃尔对亚洲蜜蜂有错?他们如此多发吗?

　　澳大兰蜜蜂?

　　授予：嗯， 事实上， 他们看起来几乎一样， 但他们感染了小虫 - 微小的生物， 生活在他们， 可以严重损害我们自己的家长大的蜜蜂，甚至可以消灭他们。

　　：那么，如果澳大利亚蜜蜂死了会怎么样?

　　授予：嗯，来自澳大利亚蜜蜂的蜂蜜难，比亚洲蜜蜂生产的东西好得多。事实上，澳大利亚向许多出口本地的昆蜜蜂。当欧洲蜜蜂次被发现在灌木丛中时，我们发现它们制造出令人不快的蜂蜜，而且它们也是我们奥斯塔拉本地花的1o大。

　　学生2：

　　那对自然植物群有毁灭性的影响。你失去了任何物种吗?

　　授予：不， 我们设法控制了他们发生的事情， 但如果阿西亚蜜蜂进入， 可能会有其他后果。我们可能会失去钱，因为你可能不知道。但我估计本地蜜蜂的花卉和蔬菜作物每年价值 1.2 亿美元。所以从一个方面说，他们是农民的朋友。哦，另一件事是，如果你被亚洲蜂蜜Boe叮了，它会在一些人中产生一种 llergic反应;所以它们比本地蜜蜂危险得多

　　：你怎么知道亚洲蜜蜂是否已经进入澳大利亚?

　　授予：我们正在研究彩虹蜜蜂食客的鸟的饮食。蜜蜂食客不在乎它有什么， 只要他们是昆虫。但是，关于这种鸟的检验是，我们能够确切地分析我吃什么，这真的很有帮助，如果我们喜欢引进的昆虫。

　　：怎么会这样?

　　授予：因为昆虫的骨骼在身体之外。所以蜜蜂食客从里面消化肉。然后，他们拿出所有可消化的骨架位，当然还有颗粒中的翅膀——一小块废物，它们咳嗽起来。

　　：　听起来有点不愉快。那么，你如何去做呢?

　　授予：在费尔德，我们追踪蜜蜂食客，并找到他们最喜欢的喂食点，你知道，鸟类通常喂食的地方。我在这里，我们可以找到小板。我们把他们接走，带他们回到实验室检查的内容。

　　：你是怎么做到的?

　　格兰特：它们坚硬，特别是在太阳下晒了几天的时候，首先，我们给它们加水润湿，使它们变软。然后在显微镜下把它们分开。所有东西都乱成一团了，但我们要找的是翅膀。我们只是把他们全部拉出来，扫射他们。然后我们识别它们，看看是否能找到亚洲蜂翼。

　　：你找到了几个

　　格兰特：到目前为止，我们的研究表明，没有任何数量的亚洲蜜蜂进入澳大利亚。——这是一个的结果，而且比试图找到活的作为引入insocts的证据要容易得多。

　　：那真是太棒了!格兰特谢谢你的真知灼见。我希望你能启发我们这里的一些懒人来做一些类似的实验。

　剑桥雅思8Test2Section2听力原文+答案解析：

     SECTION 2

　　谈话场景 :旅游
人物关系 :公园工作人员

　　交际与语言表达

　　1. 这部分听力以独白形式展开,说话人的角色是导游,地点是绿谷农业公园(Green Vale Agricultural Park)。建立这个农业公园是为了给大众提供教育机会,同时也给诸多农业学 者与其他的科学家提供研究场所。起初他们所在的位置是接待区(we are now situated in the Reception block)。be situated in 意为“位于”,同义短语还有 be located in/at,单词 lie 除了表示“撒谎”的意思外,还有“位于”的意思。

　　2. If you follow this route you will immediately come into the Rare Breeds section, where we keep a wide variety of animals which I shall be telling you a little more about later.(沿小路 而行,便来到稀有物种区,那里的动物物种繁多,我稍后会给大家介绍。)where 在此作为 引导词,引导非限定定语从句,补充修饰 Rare Breeds section ;在这个非限定定语从句中, which 引导限定性定语从句,修饰 animals。

　　3. These are very popular with the public but of course we mustn’t lose sight of the main pur- pose of having this section, not as such to preserve rare animals but to maintain the diversity of breeds to broaden the gene pool for agricultural development.(这些动物在公众中很受 欢迎,但是我们也不能忘记我们开设这个区域的主要目的,这并非为了保护稀有物种,而 是为了维持物种的多样性从而为农业发展扩大基因库。)lose sight of 意为“忘记 ;忽略”, 它的字面意思是“不再看见”。as such 意为“就它本身而言”,如 :A name, as such, means nothing.(姓名本身并无意义。)

　　4. May will be perhaps our most spectacular month with the arrival of the Canada geese and when our fruit trees will be in full blossom, but there are interesting events on all year round. (五月或许将成为我们最引人注目的季节,那时加拿大的鹅会来到园中,而且那些树的花 儿将盛开,一片繁花似锦的景象,但是一年到头总有让人开心的事儿发生。)May 在此是 
名词,意为“五月”,不是动词“也许,可能”的意思,因为动词原形是不可能做主语的。 短语 in full blossom 意为“花儿正盛开”,blossom 在此处是名词,意为“花,花期”;它 也可作动词,意为“开花;发展成;出现”。in full bloom 与 in full blossom 同义,意为“盛 开”。on 在此意为“(状态的)在发生的 , 在进行的”。 all year round 意为“一年到头”, throughout the year 也可以表示“一年到头”的意思。
